Chalice cannot get debugging to work

[Tmilly]

I'm using PyCharm and have tried following all articles available to try and get debugging to work. Ideally I tried getting a configuration to work as below:

but that only resulted in

C:\Users\torra\.virtualenvs\nlb-api\Scripts\python.exe C:\Users\torra\AppData\Local\JetBrains\Toolbox\apps\PyCharm-P\ch-0\212.4746.96\plugins\python\helpers\pydev\pydevd.py --multiproc --qt-support=auto --client 127.0.0.1 --port 53324 --file C:/Users/torra/.virtualenvs/nlb-api/Scripts/chalice.exe local --no-autoreload --port 8080
Connected to pydev debugger (build 212.4746.96)
Traceback (most recent call last):

    line_string = line.decode('utf-8')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x90 in position 2: invalid start byte

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\torra\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\tokenize.py", line 394, in open
    encoding, lines = detect_encoding(buffer.readline)

    encoding = find_cookie(first)

    raise SyntaxError(msg)

Process finished with exit code 1

I also tried attaching to an existing process but that resulted in:

    raise RuntimeError(msg)

Has anyone else been able to get to debug chalice?

Same problem here, @Tmilly have you solved/worked around it yet?
