I recenty changed my nodejs version isntalled using nvm (I always used nvm, it was not a new install replacing native node). Yarn is up-to-date and natively install to

But now, when i try to commit (or anything else which use node in intellij like "run"), i get this kind of error

16:40   Commit failed with error
        0 file committed, 1 file failed to commit: feat(acl): fsdfsd
        Yarn requires Node.js 4.0 or higher to be installed.

It's like intellij or yarn didn't recognize anymore nodejs...

  • yarn 1.22.4
  • npm 6.14.6
  • node 12.18.3
  • nvm 0.35.3
  • intellij ultimate 2020.2
  • Ubuntu 18.04

Any idea what's happening ? Thanks in advance !

nvm yarnpkg ubuntu-18.04 node.js intellij-idea

When being launched from desktop/System menu/Toolbox, IDEA only sees environment variables configured in login shell, but not in interactive shell configuration files (like .bashrc or .zshrc). Possible solutions:

  • Workaround 1: make required variables available in a login shell by moving them to the corresponding shell profile config
  • Workaround 2: run IDE from a terminal to make it inherit terminal environment
