IntelliJ IDEA: Cannot import SBT project
I'm completely new to development using Play or IntelliJ for that matter. I've created a simple HelloWorld application using Activator, and this is an sbt project.
I've been trying to import this to IntelliJ and this is the screen I'm stuck at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/we1a4a3184sojvb/Screenshot%202014-07-24%2016.57.11.png
In almost all tutorials I've been through online, I've seen people using an sbt option on the import screen. I've installed the SBT plugin as well, but that hasn't helped. I've restarted IntelliJ several times to no avail.
Where am I going wrong?
I'm running 13.1.4 with the SBT plugin installed.
Answer
I had this error when importing a new module from existing sources.
- On the right-hand side of your IntelliJ window, you will see a list of vertical tabs, open the
SBTtab. - Select the module that's causing trouble, right click on it, select "Detach external project"
- Try to import the module again.
