Cannot connect to remote Docker Python interpreter
I've been successfully using remote python interpreter with docker compose for a month. Yesterday, it suddenly stopped working. When I want to create another new remote Python interpreter, now I cannot see Docker or Docker Compose in options anymore.
I haven't noticed any Docker or PyCharm update since that time. However, I've noticed that there is an error "Python packaging tools not found". I've tried to look up for some solutions but cannot find reasonable one.
Thanks for any help

Hi, are you using PyCharm Community edition? Please note that Docker and Docker compose interpreters are the features of PyCharm Professional editions. Maybe you were using the evaluation version for the past month, and now it expired?
Hi Andrey,
it's true that I am using evaluated version of PyCharm Professional, but the evaluation will expire at June 5, 2019 so it should be working until that date.
Please check which edition are you running where the issue is reproduced. You can do this is in **Help > About**
Thanks, I've already checked it when I responded you. Find attached image for more info:
Please check if you have Docker plugins disabled. Go to Settings > Plugins > Installed, and search for "docker"
It was activated, so I tried to deactivate it and activate it again and now it works! Thanks
