Plugin com.intellij failed to initialize and will be disabled: null

Question

I followed the documentation about android-studio, however, when i execute the studio.sh i got this error:

Plugin com.intellij failed to initialize and will be disabled: null

Answer 1

This is because of jdk installation location fixed in an IntelliJ IDEA class.

When you install the jdk (sun or openJDK) from the repository, it installs in any of the following locations:

• /usr/java or
• /opt/java or
• /usr/lib/jvm

So if you have installed it manually by getting the tar and extracting it to some location other than above, you need to move your jdk folder content to any of the above locations.
