Play Framework 2.2 in IntelliJ, errors in controllers everywhere

8  comments

Today I updated an application to Play Framework 2.2. After the creation of the IntelliJ config with “play idea”, I got errors in every reverse route and content call. Here are some examples how the errors locked like:

reverse_routing_error

content_error

After fiddling around a bit I found out that the routes_routing.scala and the routes_reverseRouting.scala had errors to. Hmm this is weird. A look in the module setting (Click on the project folder -> Open Module Settings) provided me this:

module_settings_error

As you can see the folder target/scala-2.10/…/main is not a source folder. Only the underlying controllers and views folder. To fix the errors in the controllers just add “main” to the source folders and remove “controllers” and “views”.

Here is a screenshot how the fixed configurations should look like:

module_settings_fixed

Now the controllers should be fine. Happy coding!

  1. Yes! I too was having problems. Now, I have a new problem.

    After making the changes, “routes” is fixed but now “index()” is red. ugh!

  2. My hero!
    I hate that the IDE said “problems?”, but that it works.

    *Bows*

  3. This is spot on! Can’t believe after all this time this is still an issue (1 year later). JetBrains get your stuff together! (Thanks Jens!)

  4. Looked around for a while and messed with settings and came across this. Thank you.
