IDEA-36039 Cache corrupts after every compile/run

Issue is visible to: All Users

A quite large project that has been going on jdk 1.5 previously. Setting JDK to 1.6 and trying to run it. Each attempt results in "caches corrupt" message and full rebuild. Trying to run after the full rebuild - caches corrupt again, full rebuild again.

What have I tried and it did not help:
1. Cleared IDEA caches in ~/.IntelliJIDEA6/system
2. Run rebuild all manually
3. Run rebuild and kept IDEA window on the front - i.e. no syncs

The following exception has shown up during the process:

java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file

As workaround use JDK 6 to run IDEA

How to implement the workaround:

1. Install JDK 1.6 if you don't have it already
2. Delete IDEA_HOME\jre
3. Copy JDK_16_HOME\jre into IDEA_HOME\jre
4. Copy JDK_16_HOME\lib\tools.jar into IDEA_HOME\jre\lib
5. Add -Didea.no.jdk.check=true to IDEA_HOME\bin\idea.exe.vmoptions
