How do I debug IDEA 2026.2.1 (no run configuration)
Answered
I just finished building IDEA 2026.2.1 and would like to run it under the IDEA debugger. In previous releases, there were many run configurations including one for running IDEA. In this release, I see only three, and they all perform builds. How do I run IDEA from this project?

Hi,
Have you installed the Bazel plugin (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/22977-bazel) and load it using the Bazel?
After loading it using the Bazel, the IDE would include four run configurations and the “Run //build:idea_community” one is used to run/debug the IDEA.
Lejia Chen Thank you. I had tried that before and it failed instantly. Now it starts IDEA, but IDEA fails. I guess I need to create an issue to provide the log.

Okay. I will check IDEA-393350 and reply to you there!
