With my last restart of my mac I had a problem with IntelliJ IDEA project : the .iml file was deleted and I have
Error loading project: cannot load module cars-service Details ....
in the console.
Besides that, the structure view of the project has disapeared.
Here is a screenshot:
Finally, I imported my project via import project so the iml file was recreated.
Closing intelliJ. Deleting the .idea folder and re-opening intellij worked for me.
This happened to me this morning*, and fortunately there's a fairly straightforward solution.
Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S (or go to File > Project Structure...) and click Modules on the left of the window.
Click the green + above the list of modules then New Module. Select the type of module (Java, Android, Flash, what have you) and click Next.
Enter the details of the lost module. Click the browse button to the right of Content Root and navigate to the directory that contains your lost module. The module name will be populated with the directory name by default, but you can rename it without issue.
(*I... got a bit gung-ho with the old git clean -fd. I don't recommend it.)
The error has nothing to do with gems. Please try deleting the .idea directory and using "Open Directory" on the same directory again to recreate it.-- Dmitry Jemerov

This helped me. I just closed Pycharm, then delete .idea directory , then I open Pycharm again, and the error disappeared.
Please try File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart ...
Had a similar issue with PHPStorm (which is also idea based), caused by a renaming of my project. Solution was simple: I just needed to remove the corresponding line for the module declaration in file <project-directory>/.idea/modules.xml. Re-opening the project was not needed as it seemed to me, but I did it anyway.
Have had this issue with PHPStorm 2017.1.3.
IML file is necessary to load the project.
Locate the folder the .iml file used to be in > right click > Local history > show history.From there you should be able to restore that iml file
you can fix it by select your pom file. right click and then reimport

When I open an existing Maven project, the IDE shows only those files on the root directory, but not any directories in the project. After a while, the IDE will show the project as what it is in the file structure, but not the directory types such as source code, test when I reopen the project. I reinstall the community edition, but the problem still resists. I have experienced the same issue for a few Java projects lately.
How to resolve this issue?
1, Please ask another teammate to check if that project really works. Sometimes the application structure already broken, then it is not your local problem.
2, There is a .idea folder in the application, delete it. Or simply, you git clone a new place Important: Please notice if you have edited / created some new files in the original directory, otherwise you would lost them if you delete the application.
3, Open intellij, and File -> Invalite caches
Personally, the second point is recommendated.
Try to click on Reload All Maven Projects in Maven tool window:
If it doesn't help you can try to perform the following actions:
Close the project with File | Close Project.
Close the IDE.
Open your project in OS file manager and remove all .iml files and the .idea directory.
Reimport the project.
If the problem remains contact JetBrains support and attach a compressed log folder along with the project structure tree.
I recently put several old, yucky git directory structures into one new, clean structure in SVN, then pulled the entire SVN repository back out into a new, clean, local git repository. One IntelliJ project was so messed up I had to import the old IntelliJ project, which created a new .iml file having a better name, and deleted the old .iml file. I reconfigured everything, committed back into SVN, and verified other people could open the project and build.
Today I tried to edit a file for the first time in this project and got the message, "These files do not belong to the project". IntelliJ offers to unlock the file or all non-project files in the current session, but both options sound wrong. What have I done to myself, and how do I fix it?
This happened for me when I ignored the .idea/ files. Just do
rm -rf .idea/
And then File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart -> Invalidate And Restart.
I figured out the problem. The file was still open from before all the shuffling, and was apparently pointing at the original file in its original location! I closed the editor and reopened the file from the project tree without a problem. I hope this helps someone else someday.
From File-> Repair IDE -> Rescan Project Indexes -> Reopen Project worked for me.
Had same problem on Ubuntu (Webstorm), got answer from Intellij.
There are no content roots in your project, so all your files are
treated as non-project files. As I wrote your .idea files are likely
broken, the .iml file and/or modules.xml are either missing or
corrupted. Deleting and re-creating .idea folder should help:
-close the project
-remove it from Recent projects list
-shut down the IDE
-delete the .idea folder
-restart, open the project root folder with File > Open

This also happened for me when I opened the project through a symlink (parent directory) or when the python interpreter was inside a symlink directory (because of virtualenv).
Reopening through the original directory tree (after fighting hard with the IDE to forget its beloved project settings), solved the issue.
It's probably listed in one of the XML config files in .idea/*.xml.
Just do a find of that folder for the name of the file in question, and remove the entry for it from the XML.
Mine was listed in .idea/workspace.xml within the following node: <component name="TypeScriptGeneratedFilesManager">.
I removed the option, then invalidated caches and restarted, and now the file is marked as a standard, non-generated file again. This way you can keep all your settings without exporting them and importing them.
Similar issue with WebStorm. The difference was I had to shutdown the IDE completely and then remove .idea folder
rm -rf .idea
I tried doing it with the IDE open and going to file File -> Invalidate Caches but that did not fix the problem for me.
Same problem. File was considered not part of the project even if I deleted it and created a new one with the same name.
To fix,I highlighted the project node in the left panel, selected "File/Invalidate caches and restart" from the top menu.
After the restart I had to set my file as a JS file (right click, set as JavaScript), close and reopen the project. All fixed.
For me the above did not help. I ended up going Project Structure -> Modules -> + at the top narrow middle column -> browsed through files to select the Project Folder -> apply -> ok -> all is done and working correctly.
My problem was much simpler than expected: I was trying to run a Jupyter notebook and got the error - because it was inside a folder that was marked "excluded" in the project structure.
Simply moving the notebook out of the excluded folder solved my problem.
In my case it was auto-generated .gitignore, I had entries like:
### npm ###
node
node_modules
frontend-dest
data/
And in project files I had java package called like com.company.test.data which matched last pattern. I strongly recommend to check it before removing .idea/ files and invalidating cache.
This warning is an IDE issue that Android Studio cannot recognise the current directory if it does not include any source files.
So, adding am empty source file, e.g empty_xxx.c under the directory in question and adding below line in CMakeList.txt
add_library(${TARGET_NAME_XXX} SHARED ${SOME_DIR_HAVING_THIS_WARNING}/empty_xxx.c)
will help get rid of this warning.
In my case the above methods didn't help, I just deleted .idea file in project and reset the Jetbrain IDE to default settings and it worked normally.
NB: You will loose all your settings and plugins, but if you don't mind this might help as the last resort like in my case.
I am using Jetbrain,
make sure to include all project files in the project. Use Settings -> project structure.
PyCharm > Preferences > Project > Project Structure > Add Content Root
Somehow PyCharm lost the project root directory in my case
For me it was because I had moved a project to wsl by copying the files from wsl to windows. When I switched branches the file must've been open from before and was the windows version of it and not the wsl one.
I noticed this finally by looking on top of the file tab and seeing the path as C:\User...\filename instead of \\wsl$....\filename.
Close your JetBrains IDE, then open a Terminal window and navigate to your project's root folder, and run these 2 commands:
rm -rf .idea
and then
rm -rf .git
NOTE: you'll probably have to connect your project back to your git repository, so if you have any uncommitted changes make sure to commit and push them beforehand to avoid losing them.
Every once in a while, I open an old project and I can't see any of the folders in the intelliJ project viewer. I can see all the files at the root.. but no folders. Yes I can delete the .iml file and .idea folder and re-create the project, but come on.. there's gotta be an easier way to fix this.
Is there?
If you look in project settings (ctrl-shift-alt-s), you should see a module structure. If you instead see "Nothing to see", do the following:
In Project Structure -> Modules, press the + button,
press enter (since, for some weird reason, it won't let me click on "New Module")
In the window that pops up, click on the "..." next to Content root, find your root folder, and select it
Press ok
ignore any warning that says the name is already in use (or to that effect)
the simplest solution worked from me, just delete the .idea folder
keep in mind this will delete all of idea's current project configuration, it'll create the folder with default settings when reload the project again... but all other configuration will be lost if not properly backed-up
It might be because the project didn't have any modules defined. Try adding existing source code by hitting File > New > Module from Existing Sources and select the parent directory of the project for source code
Go to pom.xml file -> right click -> maven -> generate source and update folders. You will see your files and folder structures in left hand side.
All the project-specific settings for a project opened through Intellij IDE are stored in the .idea folder.
The .idea folder (hidden on OS X) in the solution root contains
IntelliJ’s project-specific settings files. These include per-project
details such as VCS mapping and run and debug configurations, as well
as per-user details, such as currently open files, navigation history
and currently selected configuration.
So, if you are not able to see the project file structure in your Intellij IDE, just delete the .idea folder,
rm -rf .idea
and reload the project, then after reload you'll be easily able to get your project structure displayed.
Thank you very much. I just remove the .idea folder and works in my case.
rm -rf .idea
For me, the java folder was not showing up. I went into File->Project Structure. In the second column, I selected on _main. In the third column, I selected the tab "sources". In what I call the fourth column, where the "+Add Content Root" is shown, I verified, the java source/folder was present. In my case, there was an extra source folder, which was the current location. I removed this, applied and the java folder immediately showed up.
Right click on the Project name -> Open Module Setting -> Check the application context path set it up at your project location.
Check your idea.log -- it may have some details explaining why or what is happening (Help | Reveal log in Explorer). Possibly one of the config files got corrupted.
You can always backup and delete .idea subfolder (project settings) and re-create project from scratch. When it's wroking again (after basic configuration) you may copy some of the files from that folder back to recover some of your settings (if there were many).
This happened to me on a new computer when I opened up a Java project in the newly installed Intellij.
The problem was that I had not installed any JDK on the machine.
I had to install a JDK and then go into the settings at ctrl-shift-alt-s and add a JDK by specifying the folder where I installed it. It's possible that IntelliJ would have found it if I closed it and reopened it.
In my case the solution was to create a new project, specifying the project type and creating it within the same directory path as the project that does not load the project files correctly.
PhpStorm automatically detects that the directory exists and gives you the option to create project from existing sources.
This can be found under:
File --> New project...
For gradle users: "Reload All Gradle Projects" option should help.
Suddenly, IntelliJ IDEA is showing the following module view with a strange yellow colour in the background. I don't know how to get my module back, because it is not being shown:
Do you know how can I see my project folder back?
Thanks
This is way late, but deleting my .idea folder did the trick.
Close IntelliJ
cd <project-path>
rm -rf .idea
You can go to File-> Project Structure and then define it as a Source Folder
In Intellij, Right click on your parent pom file and click add as maven project
For Maven Projects that don't show up you can right click your pom.xml and click 'Add as Maven Project'.
In my case Modules kept on disappearing and I managed to fix it with these simple steps:
In the Project panel, right click to see the context menu
Select "Open Module Settings"
Select the Module that is not shown in the tree view
Select the first tab labeled "Sources"
Press the "+ Add Content Root" link
Select the root folder where the files for this module are located
Once the folder has been scanned, press the OK button and you will see the Module appear
I had a similar issue. Other answers did not solve the problem for me.
I ended up uninstalling IntelliJ, then installing a new copy. When prompted to import previous settings, I selected the option of not to import, then set up IntelliJ from scratch. After re-install/re-setup, I was able to open my project folder and all of the modules showed like before. Some how my IntelliJ got fubared, my guess is that it happened when I updated it last week.
For me, I must've deleted my .iml file somehow. Files with .iml contain configuration for your modules. The problem was that my project module was not being loaded without it. I'm using gradle, syncing my project with gradle regenerated whichever *.iml was necessary to build. Here is a post that provides a succinct explanation.
IntelliJ IDE | .iml File lost or deleted
Also - I know this issue is probably long gone and out of his head but for whoever may come across this issue, the above was the solution for me.
Check if the FACETS panel is blank
If it's blank .Then click the "+" button to add
one.
For me .I need a android facet.

Hope this is work for you.
I assume you are used to working with Eclipse. Intellij IDEA uses the same idea, but different names.
A Eclipse workspace is equal to IDEA's project.
A Eclipse project is equal to IDEA's module.
I where working with a project and I closed because my computer was geting slow. When I tried to open my solution again xcode quitted. So everytime I try to open my project I get this error:
I am not able to open my solution. IS THERE A WAY I CAN RECOVER MY PROJECT!?
Nothing mentioned above/below worked for me. Here's what I did instead:
Right click on the .xcodeproj file and select Show Package Contents. Then delete the project.xcworkspace file. Open the project in Xcode and voilà.
There are a couple of things you can try, first make sure Xcode is not running ,trash the ~/Library/Cache/ folder contents, and trash the contents of the ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ folder, if you what to can just find the stuff for your project in ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ and trash just that. Then restart your computer.
If that doesn't work, rename your faulty projects folder to so method like ' old', create a new project of the same name, and then move all of the source files from ' old' to you new project and add them. Its a bit painful I known but I have had to do this once to get a project working again.
Double click the actual file! NOT the recent item!
Turns out that double-clicking on the actual file instead of selecting it from the Welcome to Xcode window will help open the project as expected!
Also, after the first time open it with double-clicking the file, the window will be fixed by itself 🤷🏻♂️
In my case, the project was moved to my iCloud Drive without me noticing it.
If it happens to you too, just go to your Finder, locate the project and check if there is a cloud next to it. Just right click it and "Download now". Try again once the download is finished.
I was having this issue with Xcode 12. Opening Xcode, and selecting my project from 'Recent projects' list was causing Xcode to crash
My solution: I navigated to the folder and opened ProjectName.xcworkspace file, then it worked
If you're working with git, right click the project-name.xcodeproj > Show Package Contents, open the file project.pbxproj and check for conflict and resolve it.
Quit Xcode, then make a copy of the xcworkspace file (just in case). In finder, right-click the xcworkspace file and choose Show File Contents.
In that directory, open the xcuserdata directory and delete any contents. Start Xcode again and open the project.
In my case there was something wrong with the saved project state, so doing this resets the state and it opened normally.
I had the same error and none of the above helped me.
Solution that helped me: Create a new project, then without closing it, go to
File -> Open
and select your .xcworkspace file.
