Intellij 12 and websphere liberty 8.5 next beta - Application server libraries not found

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15589211

Question

I installed the latest WebSphere liberty profile to the Mac:

wlp-developers-runtime-8.5.next.beta.jar

WebSphere version is shown as 8.5.next.beta in Intellij.

In Intellij 12 I try to add this WebSphere Application Server and I get:

Cannot Save Settings: Application server libraries not found

If I look on the filesystem it seems that the location of:

  • com.ibm.ws.javaee.jsp.2.2_1.0.0.0.jar
  • com.ibm.ws.javaee.servlet.3.0_1.0.0.jar

has changes from /dev/spec to /dev/api/spec

I am not sure if this is the root cause, but Intellij seems to add these to the classpath in the previous version. Is there a way to get intellij up and running e.g. can I change the location where it looks for the libs?

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

This has now been officially fixed in Intelli 12.1.2 and newer. The release notes and original ticket have further details.

OTHER TIPS

Had the same issue. There are two ways.

Either unpack wlp 8.5 into the folder where you want to have wlp 8.5.next. Once unpacked, point IntelliJ to that folder and it will detect it. Once detected, just remove the wlp folder and unpack the 8.5.next in the same. Once done, correct the library paths.

Or; Open IntelliJ's other.xml-file (it's usually in ~/.IntelliJIDEA12/config/options/other.xml) and modify as following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
