IDEA fails to start if GitHub is unreachable

Open drichelson opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

I use GitHub Enterprise which requires a connection to a VPN. If I'm not connected to the VPN, then IDEA fails to start: image

The JetBrains Github plugin fails more gracefully in the same scenario

IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3.4 (Ultimate Edition) Build #IU-173.4548.28, built on January 29, 2018 JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1024-b11 x86_64 JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o Mac OS X 10.13.3

Hi @drichelson !

Thanks for letting me know this error. This plugin is internally using the github plugin for authentication, so probably I will follow the same approach as it does.

Regards,

David.
