Output path not specified??
Answered
I'm trying to compile my project, but every time I get the message: "Output path is not specified. Cannot start compiler: the output path is not specified. Specifiy the output path in Project Properties."
But, I have an output path specified in Project Properties -> Main Module -> Output Path: and Test output path:. They both point to a valid directory.
Is there a bug here in 856?

I am using Maven
Please touch the output path value in the text field and press apply.

Ok, I tried that, and I even tried changing to a different path, and I get the same error.
I had the same problem when opening old - format - project, after IDEA
told me it would convert to new format ...
Nothing worked, but recreating them from scratch.

@Ahmetfurkan Kizilay are you using Maven or Gradle? If so, please set output path in a pom.xml.
Could you explain it for me step by step wich pom.xml ı will edit and where should edit in pom xml
You need to set outputDirectory tag, please check https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-pom.html and https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Directories
That's not maven exactly, that's more idea settings and we have no idea where these setting are because i not that simple.
Thank you, these links are very "helpful" and you're very "kind". My colleague asked step by step. That's the difference why everyone likes stackoverflow, not such "support" forums.
Since Idea is no more notepad simple we ask such questions to do not spend whole day solving environment settings. Otherwise community of newbies will move another IDE where supporters are more kind and helpful.
@Alexmotorniyg in case of a Maven/Gradle projects IDE takes all project structure settings, including dependencies and output paths from Maven pom.xml or Gradle build.gradle configuration, so this is Maven/Gradle settings that you should configure and re-import configuration in Maven(Gradle) tool window.
Do you use Maven/Gradle? Can you attach a screenshot with the error and the Paths tab for the module and project ('Project' node in Project Structure settings)?
