PHPStorm: Error Loading Default Project

The last thing I did in PHPStorm was install a plugin, then I believe it crashed (or I shut it down, I forget). After restarting, any time I open a project I get the following error:

Error Loading Default Project

com.intellij.diagnostic.PluginException: 
com/intellij/openapi/compiler/CompilerManager
[Plugin: com.siberika.idea.pascal]

Anyone know how to get around this so I can use my IDE? Thanks!

Deleting the plugin from the plugins directory did not work for me. I was able to fix this error by doing the following.

  1. Open Intellij IDE from idea.exe or idea64.exe
  2. And then from the Splash Screen there should be an option to access plugins
  3. From the plugins screen you can now uninstall the plugin causing the error.

To delete a broken or unsupported plugin in PHPStorm (or any InteliJ based IDE), you can do it manually.

  1. Go to the plugins folder and delete the folder or jar file that corresponds with the plugin causing the exception.
  2. Restart PHPStorm

Plugins folders by OS

  • Linux and other Unix systems: ~/.<PRODUCT><VERSION>
  • Windows Vista, 7, 8: <SYSTEM DRIVE>\Users\<USER ACCOUNT NAME>\.<PRODUCT><VERSION>\config\plugins
  • Windows XP: <SYSTEM DRIVE>\Documents and Settings\<USER ACCOUNT NAME>\.<PRODUCT><VERSION>\config\plugins
  • Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/<PRODUCT><VERSION>

e.g.: Plugins folders for PHPStorm 9.0 in Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/WebIde90
