Cannot locate source code

05-Feb-2026

Use the Directories page to help winIDEA locate (or share) the source code referenced in Symbol Files. This is necessary to allow source-level debugging.


Possible solutions

You can locate files:

  • From View | Symbols
  • From an open Editor document  
  • If the original path to the source files is known
  • If the original path to the source files is unknown
  • Use relative paths to make the workspace configuration portable

Refer to the winIDEA Help Locating or sharing the source code chapter for a detailed how-to.
