pycharm does not start in Ubuntu after reboot

I was using pycharm on Ubuntu fine, until I restarted the system to make some updates. Then I cannot start Pycharm anymore. I tried to start from terminal and it gives error "Unrecognized VMoption 'MaxPermSize=350m'".

I suppose this is something to do with the Java...? I have read that the latest version of Java does not work for Pycharm or something before... maybe it got "updated" automatically to the latest version when I restarted the system? Please advise me how I can start my Pycharm... thanks

Open the file pycharm64.vmoptions

nano /opt/pycharm-community-4.5/bin/pycharm64.vmoptions

and add a # at the beginning of the line

# -XX:MaxPermSize=350m

Open the file pycharm.vmoptions

nano /opt/pycharm-community-4.5/bin/pycharm.vmoptions
