How to get the Maven project window in Intellij 14 | Update: cannot see the right side "tab bar" with Maven project

Question

I have a very simple question, but I Googled and somehow I couldn't find it. I was wondering how can I get the

in Intellij 14 or something similar?

I saw it in a tutorial, but couldn't find the panel. In my case when I followed this video exactly, I couldn't see the panel and I couldn't find it anywhere. I have IntelliJ 14.

UPDATE I just experimented a bit with the Intellij interface but I can't seem to see the right hand side bar. See

Answer 1

Maybe not a solution for everyone, but this worked for me:

IntelliJ IDEA 2024.1 Apple MacBook M chip

If you have Maven plugin installed and can't enable or see the Maven plugin in the tool window, try the following:

Press shift twice then search for "Reload All Maven Projects": IntelliJ Find

After selecting "Reload All Maven Projects" my tool window showed plugin again.

Answer 2

I solved this problem by doing:

• Help -> Find Action;
• Now text Plugins: Maven and find Plugins: Maven;
• Click on this entry to enable Maven plugin again.

Beware: this needs IDE restart.

Answer 3

I had the same problem in IntelliJ IDEA 2023.2.2 (Ultimate Edition) Build #IU-232.9921.47, built on September 12, 2023

My solution was to delete the .idea directory in project

1. close IntelliJ.
2. rm -Rf .idea
3. start intelliJ again

Answer 4

1. View -> Appearance -> Tool Windows Bar
2. View -> Tool Window -> Maven
   

This will add maven window

Answer 5

No Need to do any settings i have attached the image of intelij in that marked area click on that multi window suport then you will be able to access the panels for all

Answer 6

None above helped. In my case I had to ad Java SDK. It keeps disappearing for some reason. Right click on project folder -> Open Module settings -> Project in this window define SDK under SDK:

Maven toolbar appeared after doing that.

Answer 7

Simple solution to see maven on intelliJ is go to your right click on your pom.xml and then click on Add as Maven project.

Answer 8

Try with File-->Project structure --> Modules-> Remove Parent/existing modules and add parent/all modules again

Answer 9

Right-click on your project > Add Framework Support > Maven

Answer 10

Make sure that the home directory of the project is correct. I was creating Intellij project one level above the actual maven project folder and that's why the maven tool window wasn't showing.

Answer 11

Looks like my maven integration plugin got disabled.

Go to IntelliJ Idea --> Preferences and enable Maven integration plugin.

Looks like Intellij Idea disables dependent plugin also, when one of the plugins are disabled.

Answer 12

Finally found the solution, right-click on the pom.xml file (parent pom.xml if it is a multi-module project) and hit "add as a maven project".

Answer 13

if you have a pom file in your project, right click the file, click "add as maven project"

This got it back for me. None of the other solutions worked. I had no warnings for unmanged poms, toggling toolbars did not help and the maven option just where it should be anywhere!

Answer 14

I had the same problem with a maven project, the tab wasn't showing up and even in the View->Tool windows menu, there was no maven item.
After searching the internet i could not find a solution but then i looked in Intellij idea
and noticed a Even Log showing a number in a red circle, i clicked it and then read an error message:

Non-managed pom.xml file found:   
Add as Maven Project

check out solution proposed by invzbl3, It might help.

Answer 15

If you not use Maven, can delete it.

open ProjectName.iml file in root of project of module.

then remove "org.jetbrains.idea.maven.project.MavenProjectsManager.isMavenModule="true"" from file.

save and reBuild project.

Answer 16

Make sure your Maven plugin is enabled as well. In my case, it was disabled for an unknown reason. To enable it: Settings → Plugins → Installed (Scroll down to Bundled section)

Answer 17

The question asked is how to show the sidebar, not show the Maven Plugin. On my version of Intellij this is enabled with the following:

View -> Appearance -> Tool Window Bars

Answer 18

Check if at the bottom line of Intellij, it says "non-managed pom files found."

You can then "Add as a Maven Project"

Answer 19

Very simple. NO PLUGINS.

Maven comes by default so you should press two times the shift key and write "maven".

Then import the maven project ".pom" and the bar cames automatically after selecting the pom.

Answer 20

I had similar problem until I right-clicked the option in POM "Add as Maven Project".

Notice: IDEA 2019.2 and I couldn't even find Maven in "Tool Windows" of the (existing) project before it.

Answer 21

If View → Tool Windows → Maven Projects doesnt work that means tools button is deselected

go to View -> Tool Buttons and select it . You should be able to Maven window now

Answer 22

Enable maven plugin first in

File → Settings → Plugins → Maven

Also, make sure you enable Tool Buttons in

View → Tool Buttons

Answer 23

Weird but this works at times:

Disable File → Settings → Plugins → Maven Integration first and restart Intellij. Then re-enable it back and restart - this might fix the issue.

Answer 24

It's a bit late, but I had the same problem with missing sidebars. At least in IDEA 2017.3 there is an icon on the bottom left of the screen that toggles the sidebars. That's how I got it back.

Answer 25

First, make sure you have enabled maven plugin in

File → Settings → Plugins → Maven Integration

If so and still the tool window is hidden then

go to View → Tool Windows → Maven Projects to open it.

Answer 26

For those stuck with this issue, enable View -> Tool Buttons.

Answer 27

You can find the Maven Projects pane by going to Help > Find Action or press Ctrl + Shift + A and type in "Maven Projects". However I can't see it anywhere in the elaborate menu's.
