I’m trying to solve this error in Windows operating system. While launching the IntelliJ IDEA for developing the code some conflicts came into the picture.
ERROR:
Failed to load JVM DLL C:Program FilesJeeBrainsIntellij IDEA Community Edition 2019.1.1jre64\binserverjvm.dll
If you already have a 64 -bit JDK installed, define a JAVA_HOME variable in
Computer > System Properties > System Settings > Environment Variables.
But correctly defined Java Path on Windows operating system.
Resolutions:
Solution 1:
Set the JAVA_HOME path including jvm.dil path
Find below path in your local machine and copy that path into JAVA_HOME
Step1: Goto JDK path and copy the path up to jvm.dil
C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_181jrebinserver
Step2: Set to JAVA_HOME in the environment variable
%JAVA_HOME%bin
Step 3: Still, it’s not working simply remove the following below path in your System variable it may be caused to override of JAVA_HOME
C:PrgogamDataOracleJavajavapath
Solution 2:
It may be sometimes a problem with Version compatibility so try to launch the 64-bit version. Due to the 32-bit version problem on Windows 64 – bit version and create the shortcut of IDEA into your desktop.
Note: If still facing this type of issue then try to below solution.
Solution 3:
Step1: Download Latest version of JDK 1.8 and install it.
Step 2: Set the Path in user variables and JAVA_HOME in System variables with the full naming convention.
Step3: Download IntelliJ IDEA latest version with 64 – bit. And try to launch on Windows – 64-bit version
Above resolutions are almost solved your issue in IntelliJ IDEA on Windows operating system while installing of Jet Brains of IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse IDEs are in your local machine.
Summary: In the Windows operating system An Integrated Development Environment is a major role in developing areas. All most all IDEs based on Java supporters so need to install JDK. After installation of JDK then set the environmental variable for accessing anywhere in the system.
I have intellij-idea installed. Although I have set JAVA_HOME environment variable referring to «C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_45» but when I try to run it, I end up with the following error:
failed to create JVM: error code -1. JVM path: "C:Program FilesJetBrainsIntelliJ IDEA 2017.2.2jre64" if you have a 64-bit jdk installed, define a JAVA_HOME variable in Computer> system variables> system settings> environment variables.

My workaround was to go to C:Users{username}AppDataRoamingJetBrainsIntelliJIdea2020.3idea64.exe vmoptions file and delete the whole content. The error disappeared and IntelliJ started normally.

Note that there are 2 .vmoptions files. There is the one in the bin directory and an override in
%HOMEPATH%IntelliJIdeaconfig
For me the answer was to remove -Xmx and -Xms options from the override file.

it is not a JAVA_HOME issue, you no doubt have touched the *.vmoptions files in bin folder. if you have entered the licence sever in the *.vmpotions file, notice that it should be like this «-javaagent:C:Program Files…..» don’t forget to include «-javaagent:» at the beginning of the license server

The file may be corrupted after a bad manipulation.
Just copy and paste the idea{64}.exe.vmoptions from
%IntelliJ installation path%/bin to %User IntelliJ data path%/config.
For example :
Copy «C:/Program Files/JetBrains/IntelliJ IDEA 2019.2.3/bin/idea64.exe.vmoptions» and paste into «C:/Users/HP/.IntelliJIdea2019.2/config»

I’ve been using IntelliJ for some time and this issue popped up sometime ago for me too. The issue is with a «VMOPTIONS» file. C:UsersUserNameAppDataRoamingNetBeans Go to this location and inside you’ll find a VMOPTIONS file. Delete it. Now run the Application and it should work. This VMOPTIONS file is infact a copy of the original VMOPTION file located else where but which can also override the default VMOPTIONS. So deleting this copy with some invalid options inside fixes the problem.
If a VMOPTIONS file doesn’t exist in the above path, Go to this location C:Program FilesJetBrainsIntelliJ IDEA Community Edition xxxx.x.xbin and run the idea.bat file. Not the exe file. This should fix any and all other problems and let you open the application with out getting that error.

You might have the JRE_HOME environment variable set in your system. Remove that and try again. It generally overwrites the JAVA_HOME variable.

I got such error when adding JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS in environment variables. Try to rename this variable to JAVA_OPTS restart IDE and rename again to JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS. Or simply delete JAVA_TOOLS_OPTIONS if it is not required

You can find default vmoptions file of windows 64bit version of it in :
C:Users{user}AppDataRoamingJetBrainsPhpStorm..phpstorm64.exe.vmoptions
You can reinstall phpstorm as well ,it’s quick.

Error Launching Studio:
If you already have a 64-bit JDK installed,
define a JAVA_HOME variable in
Computer > System Properties > System Settings > Environment Variables.
Failed to create JVM. JVM Pathc C:Program FilesAndroidAndroid Studiojrejre
If you received the above error message pop-up when you try to open IntelliJ Android Studio IDE, then follow the below steps to resolve it,
- Right Click on Windows icon
- Select Settings
- Search for «Edit System Environment Variables»
- Click on the button «Enviroment Variables»
- Look for «JAVA_HOME» under System variables, if you do not find it set one, this should resolve the issue.
- If at Step 5 you see JAVA_HOME property set then maybe you created a studio64.exe.vmoptions file with errors in it.
How to resolve studio64.exe.vmoptions Issue:
- Go to C: Drive -> Users -> Your User Folder -> .AndroidStudio4.0 -> config
- Open file studio64.exe.vmoptions
- Take a backup of all the text in it and clear all text in it
- Now Start Android Studio, it should work
If you are sure what you are doing — validate and fix the issue you have in the vmoptions file. You can follow https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/studio-config for more information.
