Not a valid command: idea-shell (similar: shell, oldshell)

Question

I have trouble refreshing my SBT project in Intellij. And I am not the only one.

This is the sbt-console:

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_151.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=localhost:51917,suspend=n,server=y -Xdebug -server -Xmx1028M -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Didea.runid=2017.2 -Didea.managed=true -jar "/Users/pascal.mengelt/Library/Application Support/IntelliJIdea2018.1/Scala/launcher/sbt-launch.jar" idea-shell Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 51917 [info] Loading settings from idea.sbt ...

Answer 1

I found the Intellij issue for that (with workaround):

SCL-12430 Not a valid key: idea-shell

Yes ,delete the ~/.sbt/{0.13|1.0}/plugins/target

Here the command provided by Mateusz Kubuszok:

rm -rf ~/.sbt/{0.13,1.0}/plugins/target
