Unable to locate library liblwjgl.so in intellij IDEA

[codedcosmos]

I'm getting the following error. When starting a project in Intellij IDEA.

[LWJGL] Failed to load a library. Possible solutions:
	a) Add the directory that contains the shared library to -Djava.library.path or -Dorg.lwjgl.librarypath.
	b) Add the JAR that contains the shared library to the classpath.
[LWJGL] Enable debug mode with -Dorg.lwjgl.util.Debug=true for better diagnostics.
[LWJGL] Enable the SharedLibraryLoader debug mode with -Dorg.lwjgl.util.DebugLoader=true for better diagnostics.

I have tried following https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR9hNrnT2QE and https://github.com/LWJGL/lwjgl3-wiki/wiki/1.2.-Install under the "IntelliJ IDEA" subheader. Neither have worked and have given me that error message. I have also tried putting "-Dorg.lwjgl.util.DebugLoader=true" in the program arguments. But it seems to not give me any extra information. In eclipse I would fix this issue by adding the *natives*.jar files into the classpath section. But I don't think I am able to do that in intellij.

Also as expected both of the following lines return null.

System.out.println(Library.class.getResource("lwjgl.dll"));
System.out.println(Library.class.getClassLoader().getResource("lwjgl.dll"));

What can I do to fix this?

-Dorg.lwjgl.util.DebugLoader=true is not meant to be used as a program argument to be received by your own program in the String[] args array of the main method.
Instead, it is meant (like all "-D" arguments) as a JVM argument. So, in IntelliJ IDEA you do not set this in the "Program Arguments:" edit field, but in the "VM options:" field.

I tried putting it in the program arguments. It still doesn't appear to be working for some reason.

However Configuration.DEBUG.set(true); does work:

This stuff appears at the top now:

I am experiencing the same issue, I think, after going making my project modular (java 9 modules). I'm also using IntelliJ IDEA. I have all the jars added as a library, and this worked just fine until I switched to java modules.

I get the output below.

I fixed this by adding a new folder "natives/" to the root of my intelliJ IDEA project, and extracting the natives in there manually. Then I added -Dorg.lwjgl.librarypath="../natives/" to my run configuration for my java module. The reason it jumps up one level before going to the natives-directory is because I make the module path the root when running.

Is there an actual way to fix this?

The project works fine on my work PC. I brought it home because of Corona, and it gives me this error even though I changed nothing.

Is it some setting in Idea that I need to check?

I cloned all the lwjgl samples in a work-out-of-the-box repo here
