The same here

[boly38]

oops "robj" is null also appears in

• com.intellij.diagnostic.PluginException: Cannot init toolwindow #6448
• Jetbrains Plugin is freezing once you open more instances of the IDE #5665

and in

• https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-72543/Cannot-debug-my-project-Cannot-read-field-objId-because-robj-is-null

[breakenknife]

Hello, has your problem been resolved? I am still experiencing frequent issues. every continue version has this issue. This problem is very troublesome, and I can only resolve it by restarting the IDE.

OS: Windows 10,
IntelliJ IDEA 2025.2.
continue version is 1.0.42
vm setting: -Dide.browser.jcef.out-of-process.enabled=false
use local Qwen model , can't access any internet .

[exigow]

@breakenknife, can you please share the stacktrace? In version 1.0.42 there's a fix (this one: #7291) after which, theoretically, these types of exceptions shouldn't appear anymore. I'm wondering if it's related or if this is something new.
