Intelli-J won't start - Ubuntu - intellij-idea

I cannot get Intelli-J Community Edition to start on Ubuntu 16.04LTS. I keep receiving the error:
Everything has changed
WARN: Python Community Edition not loaded: until build 181.SNAPSHOT < IC-182.4892.20
Everything has changed
And I do not know what that means. I have tried everything on the following thread: IntelliJ IDEA doesn't start on Ubuntu without any luck. After I did the following command, that was on the above thread:
wmname LG3D the Intelli-j window shows up, loads, and then disappears. In the top left hand corner, it says that it is running, but nothing happens when I click on either that or the icon on the launcher. No mention of it when I look at the processes running, either, even though it still appears in the corner. Can anyone help me with why this is happening? I can remember a time fairly recently when it wasn't -- I think it might be something related to an update?

I figured it out. I uninstalled the current version and deleted everything that I could find from the plugins directory and elsewhere pertaining to IntelliJ settings. (Ctrl + H to show hidden folders). Then I reinstalled Intellij with snaps, i.e. $sudo snap install intellij-idea-community --classic --edge for the community version (replace 'community' with 'ultimate' for the ultimate version). That seemed to do the trick. For more information see here: https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2017/11/install-intellij-idea-with-snaps/.

Intellij Idea won't start Windows 10

I downloaded Intellij Idea and was using it just fine for a while. I don't know what happened between the time it was working and when it started to not work. When I would click the shortcut, my mouse would give me the loading wheel and then nothing would happen. In task manager, there is a task called "IntelliJ Idea" running. I uninstalled and reinstalled twice, and then installed it with the JetBrains toolbox, but this is still happening. I saw another thread about this from 4 years ago, but none of the solutions worked for me.
Other thread: Intellij IDEA won't start
I thought I would post this since I recently came across a similar issue with IntelliJ IDE Community Edition but for MacOS and it seems like the same issue could potentially happen on Windows.
I was using the JetBrains Toolbox to manage the installations and updates and after a recent update, when trying to start the app it would simply attempt to start and get killed straight away. After not having much luck with the logs I eventually found the exception that was being thrown when it attempted to start:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/intellij/util/lang/PathClassLoader has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0
So from this I realized that the app was trying to run with an older version of Java and I found how to change it in this post. In my case the 'idea.jdk' file was located in '/Users/user/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IdeaIC2021.2' and for some reason was not updated after the application update.

IntelliJ doesn't recognize flutter plugin

I wanted to try out flutter with IntelliJ, so I followed the order of https://flutter.io/setup-macos/ and everything worked out. But today, out of nowhere, it doesn't work anymore. I can run my code, but reload and hot reload is disabled. So I'd have to close and restart everything, every time, I'd like to see a change. "flutter doctor" tells me:
IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition (version 2017.2.5)
✗ Flutter plugin not installed; this adds Flutter specific functionality.
• Dart plugin version 172.4155.35
• For information about installing plugins, see
https://flutter.io/intellij-setup/#installing-the-plugins
But I looked it up, and flutter clearly was installed. I honestly sit here for 5 hours now, trying to figure it out, but I just can't find the problem. I deleted and reinstalled Flutter, Dart and IntelliJ like 4 times now, but it didn't work either.
Flutter in generall works, at least I can run the app in the terminal, so the problem got to be with IntelliJ. I also deleted the following folders:
macOS
~/Library/Application Support/IntelliJIdeaXX
~/Library/Preferences/IntelliJIdeaXX
~/Library/Caches/IntelliJIdeaXX
~/Library/Logs/IntelliJIdeaXX
Does anyone have an idea of what I can do now?
It was reported several times recently. master is the development branch with some newer code. alpha dev (default) is the recommended channel, but there are currently issues with dev which are already fixed in master. dev will be updated soon and it's recommended to switch back to dev when the fixes have landed.
flutter channel master
to switch back later
flutter channel alpha
flutter channel dev
In case somebody is still looking for an answer for this... Jetbrains has changed the plugins directory since the 2020.x versions (2019 - 2020)
Windows:
from: %HOMEPATH%\.\config\plugins
to: %APPDATA%\JetBrains\\plugins
MacOS:
from: ~/Library/Application Support/
to: ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains//plugins
Linux:
from: ~/./config/plugins
to: ~/.local/share/JetBrains/
To fix the problem before a flutter update, I just created a symbolic link of my plugins directory (I use mac):
ln -s /Users/xxx/Library/Application\ Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/plugins /Users/xxx/Library/Application\ Support/IntelliJIdea2020.1
That did the trick for me! I hope it helps others as well :)
Cheers.

Eclipse PDT doesn't work on windows 7, when I run it, it displays the Eclipse Logo popup for a brief second and then disapears and crashes

I used Eclipse PDT for a while now on my Windows 7 and was working fine, but couple of months ago it stopped working for some reason. When I run it, it displays the Eclipse Logo popup for a brief second and then crashes and disapears. What can cause this and how to mend it? I tried deleting it, and re-unzipping, no use - same happens. I tried deleting just the workspace, no use - same happens. I tried deleting .eclipse in my user directory, doesn't work either.
That can happen if you have corrupted your workspace files somehow. Remove the workspace folder temporary and see if that fixes your problem.
Vladimir Despotovic found the solution:
I have solved this by uninstall Java completely (JRE and JDK -
whatever you have on your computer). Uninstall all Java and reinstall
it. Start Eclipse again. This solved it for me.

Numpy- How to fix autocompletion in PyCharm 3.1.3

I was working on my project in PyCharm 3 that suddenly the power went off. After that when I tried to start PyCharm I encountered with a huge number of warnings about the last configuration! So I accept to reset all configuration.
Now when I import numpy and try to use autocompletion it doesn't show anything! It works but there is no autocompletion popup. I have no problem with OpenCV import which its autocompletion works fine(as before).
I read this and this and tried both of them but that doesn't work. I uninstalled NumPy and reinstalled it again but the problem didn't solved!
I'm using windows 7
UPDATE
I also update my PyCharm to 3.1.x(I removed the previouse version with its settings). The problem exists yet.
It sounds like your caches have been corrupted. You can regenerate them from the file menu with "Invalidate Caches / Restart ..."
If that doesn't work the you can recreate the IDE's settings directory. See here for the location. If you've updated PyCharm, there may be multiple config versions. My linux PyCharm 3.1.3 directory is .PyCharm30, it may be the same for Windows.
Stop PyCharm
Move .PyCharmXX\system out of the way
Start PyCharm
If that doesn't work, try with the config sub-directory:
Stop PyCharm
Move .PyCharmXX\config out of the way
Start PyCharm
If all else fails, move the entire config directory out the way:
Stop PyCharm
Move .PyCharmXX out of the way
Start PyCharm
Note that the above will involve you having to re-enter licence keys etc.
I was having this issue with PyCharm CE 2016.1. It went away when I upgraded (while importing old settings) to 2016.2. I had to let it index all the library files again, which took awhile, i.e. "Updating skeletons for ...".

Intellij IDEA 13 - Can't open Project Structure dialog anymore

as already described in title, i'm not able to open the project structure dialog window in intellij anymore.
neither the shortcut (Ctrl+alt+shift+s) nor the menu element under File -> Project Structure nor the little button in the upper right corner do work.
Clarification: Menu element :
This "bug" occured suddenly as I wrote a web (vaadin/maven) project and tried to set up glassfish, where i often had to switch to the project structure dialog.
Since the first occurence i wasn't able to fix it by restarting intellij or switching projects.
This also happened on my laptop running the same intellij and windows version (Ultimate 13.0.1 Build: 133.331 on Windows 7 x64)
i appreciate any help!
This also happened to me, but removing new plugins etc didn't help.
Nor did nuking my project and rebuilding it from scratch.
In the end I deleted all caches, restarted Intellij and at last I could access the project settings again! By the way, I'm using Intellij 11.1 - mainly because I can't get 13 to start up, but that's another story
Your log shows that it is a bug in IntelliJ IDEA - they are trying to create file passing null pathname. Try to delete project files and reopen project from scratch (maybe you've lost some file) - if it won't help then you should create an issue here: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/ - You can even copy-paste text from your question and attach stacktrace
I had the same issue...upon further inspection in the log dump...I noticed the following:
ERROR - llij.ide.plugins.PluginManager - com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
at com.jetbrains.python.sdk.PythonSdkType.getHomeChooserDescriptor(PythonSdkType.java:247)
Disabled the latest Python Plugin and restarted and everything is working normal again.
I remembered I had recently update my python plugin and am not using it presently so I was able to disable it without issue.
Hope this helps someone else.
This also happened to me. The comment above helped. I had just added some plugins. Disabled them and it started working again. Not sure exactly which one because I disabled all 4 -- Bean Validation Support, Bitbucket, Jelastic Cloud Platform Integration, and Quick Notes.
For me it has been resolved by switching off FindBugs plugin and restart IDEA. So Project Structure is available for me now.
One of the plugins might be causing it. To disable a plugin, go here:
You'll know for sure if a plugin is bad if you see this Exclamation picture:
Clicking on it will bring up a pop-up. To disable the plugin, click on this:
For me it got resolved just by restarting the intelliJ IDEA. I'm using intelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2018.1 edition.
