# getting-started

the new Kotlin plugin update 232-1.9.20-release-507-IJ10072.27 which I got auto-updated to, is crashing on most recent IntelliJ 2023.2.4.
opening a project immediately crashes back to the "Welcome to IntelliJ Idea" window.
I can't manually downgrade to any version in the marketplace because none of them are compatible. what can I do?

edit: okay, I fixed this by uninstalling the plugin and restarting, which reverted to the bundled version 232-1.9.0-IJ10203.10. this one doesn't crash. I also have a permanent update request to 232-1.9.20-release-507-IJ10072.27. clicking "update" pops up a window which says Plugin "Kotlin" was not installed: Request failed with status code 404
I see now that the entire 1.9.20 version was pulled from the marketplace.

I have the same issue on my machine. I opened a bug ticket: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-336767/IntelliJ-ultimate-cant-open-projects-af[…]nux(amd64)%20v6.2.0-36-generic,%20screens%202560.0x1440.0
@y thanks for the temporary fix.

fyi they're probably aware of this since this version was silently pulled from the marketplace

[Stephan Schröder]

makes sense, but I opened the ticket before reading your post 🤷‍♂️

[y]

oh, yeah. well, still a good idea!

Yes, there was an issue with IDE plugins, we wrote about it here:https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTIJ-27593/Cannot-open-any-project-after-update-to-2023.2.4-with-kotlin-plugin#focus=Comments-27-8314909.0-0
new plugins will be published tomorrowkodee welcoming

Hi! New 1.9.20 plugins with the fix are available. K
Please let me now if it works ok for you now.

@Margarita Bobova can confirm it doesn't immediately crash, but I do get this exception:

Exception at Workspace Model event handling
   
   java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot invoke (class=ModelChangeListener, method=beforeChanged, topic=WorkspaceModelChangeListener)
	at  [insert stack trace here]

[Margarita Bobova]

does it reproduce after invalidating caches and restart?

[Stephan Schröder]

@Margarita Bobova IntelliJ says I already have the latest version of IDE and plugin installed 🤔
This is the version I installed yesterday after deleting the broken version.

[Margarita Bobova]

please, uninstall incorrect plugin and then upload new one. Sorry for inconvenience kodee sad

[Stephan Schröder]

@Margarita Bobova there is no uninstall, it just toggles between enabled and disabled 🤔

[Margarita Bobova]

which IDEA version do you use?

Is something changes if you go to Tools -> kotlin -> Configure Kotlin plugin updates and press there “check again”?

[Stephan Schröder]

yes, that worked 👍
It might have been an interaction with the Compose Multiplatform Plugin which is no longer installed after the Kotlin plugin update.
But I could simply reinstall the Compose Multi.. Plugin.
