a. Check "Enable Django Support"
b. Django project root: your file system path to Horizon project root
c. Settings: openstack_dashboard/settings.py (under your Horizon folder)
d. Manage script: manage.py (also in your horizon folder)
e. Click OK

You should now be able to debug and run the project using PyCharm.
PyCharm will listen to any changes you made and restart the horizon server automatically.

If you need help with PyCharm and general debugging, please refer to:
`JetBrains PyCharm developer guide <http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/help/debugging.html.>`_
**Note**: When executing the project via PyCharm Run / Debug,
you could get an error page
after trying to login: "Page not found (404)".
To resolve that - remove the port from the browser URL bar,
then login.
You should be able to login without it.
After a successful login bring the port back - it will continue your session.
If you would like to manually restart the apache server, open a terminal and run::
**Further notes**
sudo service apache2 restart
