Error accessing $USER_HOME from vmoptions in Intellij 2024

We are setting the location of the cacert in the vmoptions file using an IntelliJ built-in path variable, specifically $USER_HOME.

bash

Copy

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=$USER_HOME/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IdeaIU/ssl/cacerts

However, it seems that IntelliJ IDEA 2024 does not recognize $USER_HOME. Any suggestions on how to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Please clarify:

  1. Did it work in earlier IDE versions? Which ones exactly?
  2. What IDE version of 2024 are you using?

hi Yann,

yes, we have been using it in earlier versions(until 2023.1.2) and its working fine.

We are upgrading to 2024.2.1 and doesn’t seem to be working in this version.

It looks related to this issue https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IJPL-156249/

hi Yann,
Unable to open the link. Is there a plan to fix this soon?

Sorry, the issue is now publicly visible.

Thanks for the update Yann
