4049 just dies when loading a project

Try starting without third-party plugins installed

Hi there,

Just got 4049 and I have problems starting it up. After updating the
caches, when the files opened in the editor are supposed to show up,
IDEA just dissapears from the screen.

The log file contains:
2005-11-18 13:31:36,484 FATAL -
anima.D.B.H - Content is not allowed in prolog.: line 1 column 1
with a reference to a java file that, from what I can tell, shows no
problems at all (which 4042 handled just fine before shutdown).

Is this a plugin problem or IDEA's?

Thx,
Andrei

Hello Maxim,

MM> Try starting without third-party plugins installed

I'm afraid it's not a plugin's fault (or not entirely, at least). I kept
uninstalling plugins till I managed to open the project. Last batch I removed
before being able to load the project consisted of RefactorX, RefactorJ and
vcsbar. Then I reinstalled them one by one, waiting for one of them to cause
problems. Which, somewhat surprisingly, didn't happen.

Then I got the same type of crash when importing an eclipse workspace. Now
I don't know what the others plugins do, but the eclipse importer code does
not contain any fancy stuff, it reads some files from the file system and
updates the modules and the libraries in a project. From what I could tell,
it crashed while updating a module's libraries (I could go and debug to see
exactly when, if you're not able to spot the problem yourselves).

There's already a bug open that talks about a crash when updating the libraries
(http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/IDEA-5865). Plugins problems aside
(which normally show up as exceptions in the error reporter), I think you
should see what the problem with IDEA is, since the whole IDE crashing is
not normal behaviour.

Best,
Andrei

Andrei,
do you have hs_err... file in $IDEA_HOME/bin? (You should have in case you
experience native crash) If you have it, could you please post it here?

Eugene.
