Hello. Please help me solve the problem. Yesterday I installed a brand new ubuntu 15.10. Started installing software. So for example, clion got up without problems, but IntelliJ issues

Unrecognized VM option 'MaxPermSize=350m'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

I have

java -version -version
java version "1.9.0-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.9.0-ea-b81)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.9.0-ea-b81 , mixed mode)

Winternet met the recommendation to reinstall java, but this did not help.

MaxPermSize has been deprecated in Java 8, hence the error
There are idea.vmoptions and idea64.vmoptions files in the bin folder or higher - find the line -XX:MaxPermSize=350m in them and comment it out (i.e. add # to the beginning), it should turn out

# -XX:MaxPermSize=350m
