I just downloaded PhpStorm 5 on my quite fresh ubuntu.
During the first start I installed a couple of plug-ins.
Now – after the installation of those plug-ins – PhpStorm is not starting up anymore.
No splash screen is showing up. No error gets written on the terminal:
gue@ubuntu:~$ phpstorm
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)
gue@ubuntu:~$
What shall I do with that drunken sailor?
I can’t find any logfiles, no configuration file/directory in my home directory.
Since I’m used to Eclipse I’ve no clue where to look for a trace in this IntelliJ derivate…
Some plug-ins can cause problems and prevent IDE from starting, if it happens, you should delete the directory containing plug-in manually. Location of this directory depends on the system and product, details are available in the FAQ.
For PhpStorm on Linux it would be
~/.WebIde50/config/plugins.
