When I try to debug a python script in the Spyder IDE using an exception is raised long before the debugger gets to my script. In spyderpdb.py near line 765 I get a ValueError reported. The full trace back is
debugfile('E:/anaylsis_scripts/measure_{0}_test_analysis/comparison_to_golden_measurement.py', wdir='E:/anaylsis_scripts/measure_{0}_test_analysis')
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: cannot switch from automatic field numbering to manual field specification
I am expect the debugger to run and throw exceptions in my script not from the inner workings of my IDE.
I am running:
This is most likely happening because your path has {0} in it, which is a valid Python format specifier, and Spyder is mistakenly treating it as such. This looks like a bug in Spyder, you could consider reporting it.
