I've just installed IntelliJ and I am trying to build a Scala project. However, every time I do, I get this error message:

That's not an error message but (part of) a command line Please post the actual error. – The Archetypal Paul
I feel like such an idiot, but where would I find the actual error? – LivingRobot
I have no idea. You're the one telling us you get an error message! What else happens? Does the project build? What's at the end of the message you truncated? – The Archetypal Paul
I'm really trying to remember what I did. I think it ended up being a problem with where the jdk was located. Go to File -> Project Structure. Then, on the side, under Platform Settings select SDK's. Make sure that the one you have set up is in fact the right jdk. If not, click the green plus button, and select the path to where your idk is downloaded. Hope this helps. Sorry I can't remember so well. – LivingRobot
@WillBuck have you added any external library to your CLASSPATH variable? – 7kemZmani

This happened to me when I updated Nvidia drivers to 378.49. After reinstalling JDK and rolling back to oldest versions as 368.81(which didn't work), I just rolled back right to the previous 376.33 and it worked.

I have the same problem with the Nvidia drivers 378.49. As soon as I installed them, I started getting this error. After rolling back to 376.33 it started working without even having to reboot or restart IntelliJ

The problem is with the NVIDIA graphics driver. I had the same problem, I tried formatting my PC but still had the same problem. But when I formatted I first installed my grahpics card and IntelliJ, and when i uninstalled my Nvidia driver ... IntelliJ worked.
