Known issues

Preview.8

  • Beta Plugin Channels issues

    • Plugins in the channels other than 'Stable' must have higher versions than the ones in 'Stable'. Otherwise, the IDE will update them to the version from 'Stable'. This happens because each plugin has a default channel, 'Stable', which is added to the IDE as a part of joining Toolbox Enterprise. When you select a different channel for some plugin, a separate repository is added, effectively appending some new versions of the plugin to the list. Then the IDE selects the highest version it can find. Unfortunately, we cannot forbid the IDE from pulling plugins from JetBrains Marketplace at the moment, but it's planned. Because of this, plugins from JetBrains Marketplace are treated as ones from the 'Stable' channel.

    • Toolbox Enterprise refreshes the list of plugins on IDE restart and periodically after two hours. After uploading a plugin, it may not be visible in the IDE instantly.

    • Changing a plugin channel in the list of plugin versions results in saving the selection without the need to click Apply. This issue will be fixed in the next preview build.

Preview.6

  • In some cases, when you configure a force update due date, the date picker might work incorrectly. If the issue occurs, specify the necessary date manually in the "DD-MM-YYYY" format, for example, 30-11-2022.

Preview.5

  • Toolbox Enterprise Server will not start filly without license agreement parameter, please read the instructions in the product and add the parameter to your configuration files

Preview.4

  • Running an IDE may rewrite disabled_plugins.txt and thus revert the changes made on the Toolbox Enterprise Server.

  • Auto installing plugins with specified version does not override plugins that are already present on developer's machine. As a result plugin may not be installed if the user already has it.

Preview.3

  • The Demo Setup does not run on M1 (arm) computers, please use x86_64 hosts instead.

  • Plugin repository access from Toolbox Enterprise Plugin for IntelliJ-based IDEs may fail with the notification No DownloadSession in context. The Toolbox App restart fixes the problem, see TBX-7682 for details.

  • Several Toolbox App instances may be running on macOS or Linux after several days of running. Close these instances as workaround, see TBX-7713 for details.

Preview.2

  • After uninstalling the Toolbox Enterprise Plugin for IntelliJ-based IDEs from an IntelliJ-based IDEs, the “send usage statistics” checkbox is left checked under the Appearance & Behaviour > System Settings > Data Sharing section. One has to manually update the checkbox state after the plugin is removed or disabled.

  • The -Didea.fatal.error.notification=disabled VM Option is left on the IDE VM Options.
