Django version 1.5.4, using settings 'tango_with_django_project.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

But To stop a webserver it says press CTRL-C

However when I am using Powershell, it says press CTRL-BREAK.

I cannot find the BREAK key anywhere, and I tried other CTRL-letter patterns to try and stop the webserver without closing the powershell terminal.

Any help?

Solution

  • Try Ctrl+FN+F11 however if it doesn’t work you may have to use an external USB keyboard for Pause/Break Function.

    You may also use the Onscreen Keyboard.
