Debugging a flask app fails
Hey folks,
I am currently trying to get my flask app to debug. It runs through in normal mode however in debug mode (PyCharm, not the flask one) I keep getting the error "No module named flask.flask". So this is my configuration:
I noticed if I uncheck FLASK_DEBUG the error does not show up. Both Windows and macOS same issue.
Specs:
Win10, PyCharm 2019.1.3, Python 3.6, Flask 1.1.0
macOS 10.14, PyCharm 2019.1.3, Python 3.7, Flask 1.1.1
I am thankful for any advice.
EDIT: I just tried to break down, whether it could be something wrong with my project so I ran this minimal example and I am ending up with the same error.
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
return 'Hello World!'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
So at least for me it is a reproducible behavior.

This is happening to me as well just yesterday. And debugger used to work 100% sure with FLASK_DEBUG = True
Flask in pip updated from 1.0.3 to 1.1.1 yesterday, introducing this error message to my project.
I've simply frozen my requirements.txt to 1.0.3 until the situation improves.
Edit: on closer inspection it seems to have been updating more lately (https://pypi.org/project/Flask/#history), so I don't know which particular version bump was the culprit. 1.0.3 works for me still.
@Jarkko That's what I was gonna check next, since I created a new venv by coincidence yesterday as well. Thanks
@Jarkko I also updated recently. As you and Gustavo figured, it used to work for me prior to the update, maybe I should have covered this aspect in my initial post... I chose to postpone the flask update, too.
untick the 'FLASK_DEBUG' solves the issue for me
@Ken Liqi This just disables the FLASK_DEBUG mode but does not solve the problem.

Guys, I checked the whole internet itself but could not find the answer, but on that link Andrey Resler posted I have found that i should update my Werkzeug to 0.15.5, but I already had that, so I have tried to downgrade it to 0.15.4 and suddently it works!
