Unable to create new custom component project with intelij and talend component kit

sjag — Fri, 02 Jan 2026 14:45:42 GMT

Hi,

I am unable to create a new custom component project. I select the 'Talend Component' but the Next button is not working. I am using:

mac os 13.3
oracle openjdk 11.0.11
telend component kit 1.55.2
intelij 2022.2.5 and intelij 2023.1

With

2022.2.5 nothing happens. With 2023.1 I get Exeception in plugin Talend Component Kit:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "org.talend.sdk.component.intellij.module.step.StarterStep$StarterPanel.getPanelLoaded()" because "this.starterPanel" is null

...

Is there anything I can try?

Hello @Szymon Jagiełło ,

It's required to install oracleJDK 1.8.x to use Talend Component Kit.

see https://talend.github.io/component-runtime/main/1.55.2/system-prerequisites.html

Could you please switch to oracleJDK 1.8.x to re-try?

Best regards

Aiming

Hello,

thank you for the response. Unfortunately this is a company mac and due to security reasons and policies it is hard to use older java versions.
