Could not attach debugger

Google for the error message and change the ptrace settings:

Unfortunately my kernel doesn't know anything about yama.  My solution 
was to run it as root. It's a  security fix so a debugger can't access 
other owner's pids. Becomes a big pitb for anyone doing debugging.
