PHPStorm does not start anymore

0

I have phpstorm installed on ym Linux machine, and it worked fine before.

However, now it doesn't even start:

~/.../config/plugins $ phpstorm.sh
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize=350m; support was removed in 8.0
~/.../config/plugins $

Any idea what's causing this, or how can I get some more info from it?

I have version 8.0.3

It was related to jkd update. Try to kill all java & phpstorm processes – None – 2015-04-25T20:21:39.160

Fixed it after asking for support, it was some problem with licence.

Basically it entered daemon mode and showed an alert box under all other widows, so it could not be seen. I stumbled upon it while logging off.

The box was a simple warning that license expires in 5 days. Not a big deal since I have a school license.

After confirming the dialog and adding new license key, it works as expected.

* Moved from multiple comments to one answer

Thx @MightyPork. For me on windows 7, I found an alert for icloud setup (first time run) on background after seeing your answer. Once I closed the alert, I was able to start phpStorm.

UPDATE 1:

This time computer restarted from BSD (crash) & there was no alert. I end task MS OUTLOOK and tried, it worked

UPDATE 2:

Same issue as update 1 but that didn't work this time.

This time it worked after force end task of 'slack' app. now I am wondering if this is something to do with memory (?)

So from now on, I'll be closing apps one by one until I can load PHPstorm.

Once it starts, I can restart other apps fine.
