IntelliJ Cannot Open Local Terminal - Failed to start powershell [duplicate]

I have been attempting to run powershell as my terminal on windows in pycharm, so I did the following:
However, when I try this, it says that it cannot execute my scripts, and hence I get the following error: SecurityError and the Fully Qualified Id is : UnAuthorizedAccess.
This arises from the fact that pycharm's terminal cannot execute my Powershell_profile.ps1 profile file.
How can I successfully run Pycharm's terminal with Powershell?
What I have tried so far, is going into my main powershell directory as in %windir%/system32/WindowsPowerShell/1.0/profile.ps1, and then change it to include the following:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
However, this does not help, and I get the same error when I try to open of pycharm's terminal.
I have also tried to run pycharm as Admin, however this does not solve the problem either, and I get the same aforementioned error.

I've replaced cmd.exe with powershell.exe in a simpler way and hope it can help.
I'm using webstorm2017 and Win10 os.
1.Find the exact location of powershell.exe.In mine and I believe in most computers the location would be C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe.Copy the whole path into your clipboard.
2.In your IDE open File=>Setting=>Tools=>Terminal, and paste the path into "Shell path" blank.
3.Restart the IDE and everything would be ok.

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser

I updated the powershell.exe path in IntelliJ -> Settings -> Terminal
Opened a powershell instance in Admin mode.
Executed Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser
Restarted IntelliJ and the issue was solved.
Step 3 is from ebelanger's answer.

Browse to the PowerShell executable, right-click, run as administrator.
From the prompt, use the same command you tried:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
Once that is done, close PowerShell, and attempt to use it again from your application.
Note:
You can't set the execution policy from a script, as the default execution policy prevents you from running scripts. (even if it's the profile script - still a script)

In PyCharm
File->Settings->Tools->Terminal
Shell path:
"powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass"
Then restart PyCharm

In the Default Shell TextBox you can append the execution policy command line option like so:
powershell.exe -Executionpolicy Unrestricted

If you're running on Windows 8 x64 then running both the commands below may help. It worked for me.
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
start-job { Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force } -RunAs32

Powershell on Windows 7: Set-ExecutionPolicy for regular users

As mentioned in other answers, if after setting powershell.exe as your terimal in IntelliJ → Settings → Tools → Terminal → Shell path it throws UnAuthorizedAccess errors, normal way to solve this is to alter execution policy:
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
Note that Unrestricted level is the least secure of all, and you're usually can go with RemoteSigned in order to disable unsigned scripts downloaded from the web until you manually remove Internet or Intranet Zone.Identifier from them, usually with Unlock button in file properties.
However, you may run to an occasion when you're not able to change execution policy. Usually that's because of corporate security settings in Active Directory. In PowerShell, that corresponds to scopes MachinePolicy and UserPolicy. A primary symptom of this situation is the following message:
Set-ExecutionPolicy : Windows PowerShell updated your execution policy
successfully, but the setting is overridden by a policy defined at a
more specific scope. Due to the override, your shell will retain its
current effective execution policy of AllSigned. Type
"Get-ExecutionPolicy -List" to view your execution policy settings.
For more information please see "Get-Help Set-ExecutionPolicy".
You can't set execution policies at this scopes with PowerShell or gpedit.msc. Attempts to change this settings directly in registry is also ineffective: they're applied on restart or login, but at the same time they're being re-imported from Active Directory. However, while you won't be able to run arbitrary PowerShell scripts all around, for profiles and other local scripts that's only modified manually there's still a solution:
Run the following command in PowerShell to create ceritificate files root.pvk and root.cer - it will ask you to define and then confirm password to the certificate:
makecert -n "CN=PowerShell Local Certificate Root" -a sha1 -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -r -sv root.pvk root.cer -ss Root -sr localMachine
In the same folder, run the following command to import generated certificate files as your self-signed certificate - it will ask for the password you're defined above:
makecert -pe -n "CN=PowerShell User" -ss MY -a sha1 -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -iv root.pvk -ic root.cer
Sign your profile script with the following command:
Set-AuthenticodeSignature "[script path]" #(Get-ChildItem cert:\CurrentUser\My -codesign)[0]
When running a script signed with self-ceritificate for the first time, PowerShell will ask you about trusting the certificate like this:
The file [script path] is published by CN=PowerShell User. This publisher is not trusted on your system. Only run scripts from trusted publishers.
[V] Never run [D] Do not run [R] Run once [A] Always run [?] Help (default is "D")
Answer A to always run self-signed certificates.
Now your profile script won't cause any errors. However, note that signing a certificate adds a signature block in the end of your script containing its hash. If you're about to modify the script, remove that block and, after you're done with editing the script, sign it again by repeating step 3.

Specify the shell that will run by default. Here are some examples of different shells:
Bash: /bin/bash
Z shell: /bin/zsh
Bash for Windows: bash.exe
WSL: wsl.exe
PowerShell: powershell
Command Prompt: cmd.exe
Cygwin: "C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe" --login -i

As of this writing (2018-9-20), there is now a PowerShell plugin available here.
I have installed v1.1 in PyCharm v2018.2.3 (Professional), and it seems to work like a charm, no pun intended.
This plugin provides Intellisense-type support of PS1 scripts, as well as an integrated PowerShell terminal. In order to open the terminal, go to Tools > PowerShell Console...
There appears to be no need to muck about with any kinds of settings or permissions in order to get it to work. It Just Works.

You only need to write powershell in the Shell path input, just like in the image, also you can see jetBrains documentation and configure any shell you want.
powershell configuration

For WebStorm and PowerShell 6+ on Windows 10.
Just follow this screenshot and change the default cmd.exe to pwsh.exe from settings. Finally restart the ide. Done!

How to run azure-cli commands from java

I have azure-cli installed in my mac and I can successfully execute all azure commands from cli. I want to do the same from a java application. I have seen examples of using REST endpoints and azure-sdk-for-java. But what I want is to execute the azure-cli commands directly from java.
I tried running 'azure login' from a java program, but I got the following error.
Cannot run program "azure": error=2, No such file or directory

The problem is in a lack of your PATH variable. If you want to enjoy the same "find the command" capabilities that you have on the command line, you need to set it somehow within your Java program: import the PATH variable from the environment, set it within the code you're writing, or whatever mixture covers your needs.
Giving the absolute (full) path is the surest way, but you may not want to read such long command names in your source codes.

#harshithabt Per my experience, the issue was caused by the command azure could not be searched in the directories listed in PATH. There are two ways to solve the issue for running commands in Java, please see below.
Setting up the environment variable PATH for the current shell session or the configuration files ~/.profile(or ~/.bashrc).
If you command export PATH=<your-node-path>/bin:$PATH in a shell session, you only run the Java program with azure command in the current shell session, even run via the Java IDE which must be opened in the current shell session (it means you should open Eclipse via command <your-ide-path>/eclipse).
If you configure the files ~/.profile or ~/bashrc to add the node runtime as below, please make sure the configuration files have been reloaded via command source ~/.profile in a current session or restart sessions via logout & login or reboot.
A simple way is that adding the command links into the dirs listed in PATH, such as /bin. You just need to run the commands below.
sudo ln -s /bin/node /bin/node
sudo ln -s /bin/azure /bin/azure
Then you can run azure-cli command from Java successfully.

How to find where Tomcat is install/running from when it is not installed as a service

I'm trying to determine the Tomcat install directory when it is started from startup.bat in Windows.
It is easy enough to determine where tomcat7.exe is running when Tomcat is running as a service, but I'm not sure how to do it when it's started with the script. I know java is running when Tomcat is started from the script, but the executable path is for the java jre. Is there something I can do to find where catalina is running based on java?

Assuming you know the location of startup.bat, then just go two folders above and you're done.
Assuming you only have a shortcut to this file, then you would need to retrieve a list of processes explaining the application and the location of the files they're using, similar like ps aux command from Unix based OSes. Fortunately, Windows have such thing as well. From this great Q/A: Is there a command in Windows like ps -aux in UNIX?, more specifically, this answer, the way to find the location of tomcat in Windows is to execute the wmic application (through CMD if you want) and write process command, this will provide a list of the current applications running and their parameters. For example, I initialized Tomcat from startup.bat file and got this result using the commands above (single line):
java.exe "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\bin\java" -Djava.util.logging.config.file="<TOMCAT_HOME>\conf\logging.properties" -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.endorsed.dirs="<TOMCAT_HOME>\endorsed" -classpath "<TOMCAT_HOME>\bin\bootstrap.jar;<TOMCAT_HOME>\bin\tomcat-juli.jar" -Dcatalina.base="<TOMCAT_HOME>" -Dcatalina.home="<TOMCAT_HOME>" -Djava.io.tmpdir="<TOMCAT_HOME>\temp" org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start
Here's the same result but splitted in several lines to ease readability:
java.exe "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\bin\java"
-Djava.util.logging.config.file="<TOMCAT_HOME>\conf\logging.properties"
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
-Djava.endorsed.dirs="<TOMCAT_HOME>\endorsed"
-classpath "<TOMCAT_HOME>\bin\bootstrap.jar;<TOMCAT_HOME>\bin\tomcat-juli.jar"
-Dcatalina.base="<TOMCAT_HOME>"
-Dcatalina.home="<TOMCAT_HOME>"
-Djava.io.tmpdir="<TOMCAT_HOME>\temp"
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start
Note: I've replaced the real path by <TOMCAT_HOME> in the results from above.
TL;DR do this:
Open cmd
Execute wmic
Execute process
Wait few secs and search java.exe and the arguments containing Tomcat jars.

Since you explicitly mentioned *.bat and Windows here is your answer.
1.Most tomcat application comes as a zip instead as msi/exe . The place where you extract is actually its locations . You start the application by clicking startup.bat file
2.Open the bat file with notepad . You will also find the relative path of the application.
3.Look for the path variables .
Hope this information helps

Executing .bat files using jenkins

I'm trying to run a jar file using a bat command with jenkins. and I want to popup the cmd and execute the jar file. but the problem is jenkins execute commands inside its console. Then i inserted "start" command and hoped it'll work coz it creates a separate cmd to run the jar.
here is my bat code
start "window_name" java -jar myjarfile.jar
but when i executing using it jenkins it doesn't create a separate cmd window but it executes the jar file anyhow. it shows this line,
C:\Update>start "window_name" java -jar myjarfile.jar
any idea how to solve this? I want to pop up a black window when executing.

The trick is figuring out in what session you want to start the cmd.exe. On a remote server (which is most often the case with Jenkins), it's not necessary straight forward. Your Remote Desktop Session is not in the same session as someone who is logged in physically at the console.
Bring up Windows Task Manager
Click the Users tab
Note down the ID of the session of the logged in user that you want
Download psexec from Windows Sysinternals
Edited from here downwards
Open elevated command prompt: type cmd into Start's quicksearch, right click cmd.exe, select Run as Administrator.
Type C:\path\to\psexec.exe -accepteula and press enter.
Type C:\path\to\psexec.exe -i 1 cmd and press enter. (If you see a command prompt appear, all is good, close it now)
In Job configuration, configure Execute Windows Batch command step
Write the following:
C:\path\to\psexec.exe -accepteula && C:\path\to\psexec.exe -i 1 cmd /c start C:\full\path\to\java.exe -jar myjarfile.jar
A more detailed explanation is provided in this answer Open Excel on Jenkins CI

Thanks Guys, May be your solutions too will do the trick. Finally what I did is i created a socket program and executed server myself. Then scheduled jenkins to execute the client.(Server in my environment & client in jenkin's environment) When client connects to the server it executes the bat file. Now everything works fine.

Starting Java app from cmd works, from batch not

The Problem is as follows:
I have a Java Application packed in a ".jar"-File.
I can start the App (Swing Application) by either
doubleclick on the jarfile
commandline java -jar MyApp.jar
However when I put the commandline command into a batchfile, it will tell me
Unable to access jarfile MyApp.jar
The batch file is in the same directory as the jar. Just where I also started from cmd-line.
I tried to call the bat with Administrator-rights and from an admin-shell - no effect.
I'm working on a Windows 7 (64bit) machine. Any hints will be appreciated.
EDIT
You asked for it :) Here is the batch file:
#ECHO OFF
java -jar MyApp.jar
#PAUSE
EDIT 2
Invoking the batch by double-click and from cmd has the same effect.
Changing the command to
java -jar "C:\Full\Path\MyApp.jar"
has no effect.
EDIT 3
I added SET Path=%Path%;C:\Path\To\Jar to the batchfile. No effect.
I also tried using double backslashes as suggested by Chris' link and supported by Viruzzo. Also no effect.

When you double click on .bat file, the working directory is not set to where the .bat file is, but is usually something like %AppData%. To make it work you need to put the full path to the file inside the bat (i.e. java -jar C:\path\to\jar\MyApp.jar).

I just had to put my path in quotes, even though it had no spaces or odd characters.
java -jar C:\Users\Jacob\executables\some-file.jar failed, but
java -jar "C:\Users\JStamm\executables\some-file.jar" worked.

This isn't the answer to your specific problem, but this will allow you to troubleshoot the problem so you will find an answer. Adding a sleep command will let the command prompt sit, so it doesn't close right away.
ping 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 10000
(sleep for 10 seconds)

Make sure you don't have the hide extension option enabled in windows. Maybe the name of your jar ends with .jar.jar? Are you sure the path to the jar is correct?

I havent't yet figured out why, but now it works:
The first batchfile was a copy of another and I just changed the contents to fit my needs.
NOW I renamed it to MyApp.bak and wrote a new MyApp.bat from scratch.
As soon as I find out, what the difference was, I'll update this answer.
UPDATE
It happened again with another batch. This time, we got the reason: For some reason, the batch file did not inherit rights when copied. Creating a new one in the folder had the correct rights. So, in the end it was indeed a rights-issue.
