ClassnotFound exception in IntelliJ: akka.actor.ActorSystem

[S. Zhou]

I am new to Akka. We use SBT to compile Scala. After use gen-idea, I import the scala (which use akka) project. However, when I run the project inside Intellij, I got the following exceptions. Not sure how to fix it. BTW, I use akka 2.2.4

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: akka.actor.ActorSystem$

This means that the IntelliJ project was not properly configured and is missing the akka-actor-2.2.4_2.10.jar artifact. Is the dependency defined in sbt?

Yes it is defined in sbt. We can run the application in sbt (a wired issue though: we can run the application using "restart" command but not "run" command). We generated the IntelliJ project files using "gen-idea" (in sbt shell).

Hi,

Have you had any luck with this? If there still is a problem, could you package up a minimal sbt project that fails, so that I could test it?

Thanks Bjorn. Actually it is an open source project: https://github.com/ooyala/spark-jobserver

After I sync the source code, I run "gen-idea" in side sbt shell. There are two big issues when I imported the project into Intellij:

1. The issue I reported in this thread (class not found error)

2. IntelliJ seems not recognizing Scala syntax on using Akka actors.

(The code does compile and run if using sbt. It just does not compile or run in Intellij). The same issue happens on my co-workers as well. Is it a known issue?
