[ BUILD # : 201011240001 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.22 ] Steps to reproduce: 1) open Tools/Plugins 2) select both spellchecker modules and uninstall them 3) dialog asks to restart; confirm 4) NetBeans does not come back up again. It did leave a process running: shadowm@orac:/download/java/netbeans > jps -l 9769 org.netbeans.updater.UpdaterFrame 9793 sun.tools.jps.Jps shadowm@orac:/download/java/netbeans >
If you kill the UpdaterFrame process, NetBeans comes up again immediately.
Use jstack to get information about the updater process please.
Created attachment 103417 [details] jstack trace With 201011280001 build. Same behavior (killing the UpdaterFrame process allowed NetBeans to start up again).
Created attachment 103435 [details] another jstack trace Here's another trace, taken against 201011290001.
Thanks for the stacktraces. They show no signs of deadlock, so this is likely problem of missing System.exit.
