not sure this should go here, and it does not seem strictly related to kotlin only, but has anyone seen something like (let me explain in a thread first though)?

I’m using Kotlin in a maven based project, and I’ve run into this. It seems like the Kotlin version is not being configured from the maven pom, so I needed to make sure that I manually configure Kotlin in the IDEA settings in parallel. That’s a bit cumbersome. I also guess it would be difficult to jump between two projects using different versions (e.g. 1.4 vs. 1.5) …

it seems to happen every time I restart intellij since I upgraded to 2021.1, I get kotlin not configured and most imports, but not all, marked as red.

I tried invalidating cache, reimporting the project from 0 (delete all idea-related files and reimport), but the only thing that helps is removing

rm -f ~/Library/Application\ Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2021.1
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2021.1/

which is kinda of annoying because it loses some configuration, like vpn tunnels etc

That’s not an issue for me, also running 2021.1 …

it’s weird, because once it happens on a project, it happens on all other projects too. I can open any other project and see the same kotlin not configured and dependency not being picked 🤔

That might be more less destructive than deleting your global configuration:
• close IntelliJ
• delete .idea/ and ProjectName.iml files in my project
• mvn clean
• reopen IntelliJ

Auto Kotlin-configuration has been bugging me too, though my problems may be different from yours. If my work-arounds were still working, I wouldn't be on this slack right now: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-45150

I just discovered the #C0B8H786P channel which might be more appropriate for this?
