Python Plugin requires plugin PythonCore

Answered

Hey folks,

I just updated to the 2024.2 RC and noticed that the Python plugin isn't working as it requires the PythonCore plugin to be installed.  I'm unable to find this plugin on the marketplace (double checked both the browser and in-tool interface).  I must be missing something here.  Any pointers on how to resolve? 

Thanks!

Hello Ryan,

Probably, the plugin wasn't correctly updated with the IDE upgrade. 

Please try the following to resolve the problem:

  1.  Open Settings | Plugins | Installed.
  2. Uninstall Python and Python Community plugins.
  3. Restart IDE. 
  4. Open IDE,  Settings | Plugins | Marketplace.
  5. Install the Python plugin (it installs both Python and Python Community plugin).
  6. Restart IDE. 

If the problem persists after restart, please let us know.

Yes, that was it!  Thank you - that will be my go-to process in the future.

This happened to me with IntelliJ IDEA 2024.2 (Ultimate Edition) final release as well (Build #IU-242.20224.300, built on August 7, 2024).

I had updated to 2024.2 via the Toolbox App (JetBrains Toolbox 2.4.1.32573, macOS 14.6.1, arm64).

Same thing happened to me as well after the recent update 2024.2 (UE). And the solution also worked, thanks.

I'm also hitting this issue, but uninstalling and reinstalling the Python plugin is not resolving the issue.

Please try to manually enable the "Python Community Edition" plugin.

I had a similar issue.  I had to manually download the latest 251.x version from https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/631-python/versions/stable and ignore the 252 one which is causing issues, where IU-251.26094.121 is the latest IntelliJ Ultimate version.

Seems like someone incorrectly had “All” for the 252 version which is breaking all of the 251 / 2025.1.2 versions. :/
