New plugin works on debug but not when install from zip

Answered

When I invoke th Run/Debug from my project the plugin works fine, but when I try to install it from the zip file in this same machine it does not work. Is there any way I can check why it´s not working installing this way?

Check idea.log for errors (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/207241085).

Verify that plug-in is packaged correctly and contains all the required files in the appropriate layout: http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/plugin_structure/plugin_content.html.

Serge,

the problem was the version of the jdk that I compiled the plugin versus the jdk Idea uses in my machine. I compiled the plugin with version 8 and my idea loads with versio 7. This post helped a lot.

My Idea now loads with jdk 8, and the problem is gone.

 

Thanks for the quick response.

Werther
