Error while running Java app

问题:

The log shows this

"error=2, No such file or directory"

"Cannot run program /Applications/IntelliJ IDEA.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java" (in directory "/Users/.. " and a path to a directory that exists.

I could replicate the error running a "hello world" app without any type of dependencies and configs (no maven, no spring).

I'm using Intellij 2016, and OSX El Capitan

The problem was with the SDK that was referencing the one that is bundled inside Intellij.

I could solve it by changing the sdk and referencing the one outside Intellij. This can be done going to File > Project Structure > SDKs and in "JDK Home Path" put the path to the SDK (in my case /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_65.jdk/Contents/Home).
