Received “/: Event not found.” when using PyCharm remote dubugger

When I use PyCharm with remote debug through ssh to a **tcsh shell server**, many times its stops working, and displays "/: Event not found"

More specifically, I encounter the following in pycharm debug console.

`ssh://username@hostserver:22/path/to/bin/python -u /path/to/.pycharm_helpers/pydev/pydevd.py --cmd-line --multiproc --qt-support=auto --client '0.0.0.0' --port 40426 --file /path/to/python/file/main.py
/: Event not found.`

Is the problem owing to **history substitution** in tcsh shell? Because I can get the same response when typing `!/`.

I find some similar questions like [Issue with pycharm remote debug (“/: Event not found.” )][1], but no useful answer.

Sometimes this problem disappears automatically, which is weird.

Same here. Happend and goes away without anny apparent reason. Sometimes I cannot fix it no matter what I do (restarting, removing configuration etc.).

I ran into the same problem - regular remote Run works fine but Debug gives this error.  I fixed it by changing my default Linux shell on the remote host from tcsh to bash.

Yes, alternative shells can cause issues for remote debugger.

If you have a reliable way to reproduce the issue, you can submit a bug report (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/PY), which, if confirmed, can be made into feature request.
