Intellij does not start on Arch Linux anymore
Answered
I closed Intellij and since then it does not start anymore. Here is the log:
I saw people saying that you need Java 8 installed. I installed it and set it as the default JDK with 'archlinux-java set java-8-openjdk'. Intellij still uses Java 11 as the log states. But it also has Java 11 as an dependency in the Arch repository.
How can I fix this?

Please share the java_error_in_*.log files from the user profile (home) folder.
If you don't see them, add -XX:ErrorFile=/tmp/java_error_%p.log into .vmoptions (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/206544869). Make sure the specified folder has write permissions.
Also, please define if you noticed that the crash occurs after an exact action (display detaching, plugin update or so).
same problem to me.
Please share the mentioned files
I believe the pastebin link in the original post is the contents of the file you are asking for. Its contents are similar to the java error file I had gotten.
Me too! But I fixed by installing it from Jetbrains Toolbox! Try it!
@... The file you've attached is the system's crash dump, where I cannot identify the exact thread inside java program that causes the crash.
java_error_in_*.log files contain info about exact crashed thread, thus could be used to identify the exact problem.
