Unable to compile with Intellij

Question

I'm giving JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA 12.0.4 a spin and have run into an issue when compiling programs. When I run a program I get the following error:

Internal error: (java.io.FileNotFoundException) \domain.local\usersfolders\roberth\.IntelliJIdea12\system\compile-server\hibernate_test_1ad22f80\timestamps\data (The system cannot find the path specified)

This occurs with both Run and Debug. What setting do I need to change to correct the paths used to change them to my local classpaths and directories?

Answer 1

It seems that your user home is located on a network drive, which is unsupported by IntelliJ

In some environments user's home directory is located on the mapped network drive which is unacceptable for IntelliJ IDEA. You'll notice the huge performance degradation. You may also want to move system directory to the faster or larger drive partition.

You should copy IDEA_HOME\bin\idea.properties to your home directory and adjust the following paths so that they point to local directories instead:

• idea.config.path
• idea.system.path
• idea.plugins.path

See the above link for further details. If you don't want to lose everything you already configured, just move \domain.local\usersfolders\roberth\.IntelliJIdea12 to a local folder.

Answer 2

i got the below error in windows env:

Error:Internal error: (com.intellij.util.io.PersistentEnumeratorBase$CorruptedException) PersistentEnumerator storage corrupted C:\Users>.IntelliJIdea14\system\compile-server\cmx_cdc441bb\aj\aspect_path.dat

and deleted the .dat file located at the above path and my jetbrain IDE started compiling all the classes and problem got resolved.

Answer 3

I faced a similar issue was not able to reload the compiled classes while debugging a program. Read a few blogs and deleted the compile and compile-server directories under C:/Users/<yourUsername>/.IntelliJIdea<version>/system and I could continue to use class reloading as usual.

Answer 4

I had the exact same problem. So I edited the IDEA_HOME\bin\idea.properties file and uncommented:

• idea.config.path
• idea.system.path
• idea.plugins.path
• idea.log.path

Then I removed the ${user.home} from the idea.config.path and idea.system.path and everything worked fine.
