IntelliJ Idea does not start after crash

Answered


I got prompted about IDE not having enough free memory.
Some 3 fields popped up about how much memory should be used etc.
I redefined the values to 2-4 gigs.
After that, the IDE hasn't started.

Trying to open the ide from command line displays this error message:
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file /Applications/IntelliJ IDEA.app.

I've tried a few tricks

1. Uninstalled and reinstalled the IDE.
2. Read the comment to this issue:

.... and moved IDEA related files else where (files described in) https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544519
...and after that did the uninstalling installing procedure

3. Installed the prev version of the IDE 

I guess I will be using WebStorm until a solution is found for this issue.  

My college switched to using VS code a few months ago and I'm weekly considering doing the same thing because of jetbrains IDE:s seem to crash 2-3 times/work day by default, and the performance is sooo slow. + now this

What IntelliJ IDEA version do you use? Did you reinstall the latest version from http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/index.html?

What is the full output of this command in the Terminal?

/Applications/IntelliJ\ IDEA.app/Contents/MacOS/idea

Hi. the issue seemed to be:

Invalid ReservedCodeCacheSize=2500M. Must be at most 2048M.


I set the value ofReservedCodeCacheSize inside:

/Users/$username/Library/Preferences/IntelliJIdea2017.2/idea.vmoptions

 to 1024 and now it runs fine.

300M should be enough, no point to set it larger.
