Exception: java.lang.StackOverflowError thrown from the UncaughtExceptionHandler in thread "AWT-EventQueue-1"
This is the first time I get such an error after IDE upgrade. How to switch to debug mode ? How to localize the problem ?
Regards.

Hi, could you provide the IDE logs folder compressed? (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241085-Locating-IDE-log-files)
Try to delete the plugins directory when the IDE is closed. (https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/directories-used-by-the-ide-to-store-settings-caches-plugins-and-logs.html#plugins-directory)
The files can be uploaded at https://uploads.jetbrains.com (do not forget to specify the UploadID)
Hi Egor,
I have uploaded compressed log directory to Upload ID: 2022_04_24_HgFqSKysUeBZjapG (file: idea-logs.zip)
I have uploaded compressed log directory from fresh installed 2022.1 with removed plugin directory before starting to Upload ID: 2022_04_24_WNsariLtWrLWZUyX (file: idea-2022-log.zip)
Regards.
Thank you!
The problem might be related to https://github.com/vaadin/designer/issues/2437 .
Please delete the plugins directory when the IDE is closed and restart.
After removing plugins directory, idea.sh command line show this error :
There is no log in idea.log. This might be specific to Linux based systems.
As I can see custom plugins are still enabled:
Could you clarify the directory that you removed? To find a path to the plugins directory check idea.plugins.path entry in idea.log files.
After removing Vaadin plugin in HOME/.local/share/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2022.1/, IntelliJ starts again :)
Thanks Egor for your support.
