Problem with Kobalt plugin after initializing a new project

See original GitHub issue

I created a new project in OS X by mkdir “project”, cd “project”

Then did ./kobaltw --init java

This all works.

./kobaltw run
./kobaltw test

all works…

Did ./kobaltw --init idea and then ran IntelliJ, opened project.
