When I try to add a new class or a new package to a project, a dialog appears. After entering the information, I click the "Finish" button, but the dialog remains on screen, with its buttons disabled (greyed out) except for the Help button, and nothing ever happens. I have to close it by pressing the ESC key.
I found and old, abandoned bug, number 169753 which look exactly as this one, but I haven't used the visual editor.
Thanks for the report. However it is not clear under what circumstances the problem did appear (e.g., is your project a Java project ?). Please provide more info, as suggested at http://wiki.netbeans.org/IssuezillaRules

Sorry for the lack of information. This is the info from the Help->About dialog: Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 20120219-unknown-revn) Java: 1.6.0_24; OpenJDK Client VM 20.0-b12 System: Linux version 3.2.0-2-686-pae running on i386; UTF-8; es_ES (nb) Userdir: /home/nacho/.netbeans/7.0 I did some more tests, and I found the same problem when creating a new project (by the way: yes, it's a Java project). But I realized that it only happens when working on a specific directory. I'm trying to use /home/nacho/repos/vstat/trunk/, which is under subversion control. Perhaps this has something to do with the error. If I use /tmp or any other directory within my home directory, it works fine. I'm running Debian SID, with Gnome3 and: netbeans 7.0.1+dfsg1-5 subversion 1.6.17dfsg-3 Thank you.
reassigning to version control for evaluation
Please add a screenshot of the corrupted dialog and attach the full messages.log (~/.netbeans/7.0.1/var/log/messages.log). Also i suggest you download and try NetBeans 7.1.1 and reopen if reproducible there.
Created attachment 117935 [details] Netbeans log Attatching messages.log as requested.
Created attachment 117936 [details] "New Java Class" dialog (broken) This is the "New Java Class" dialog after I press the Finish button.
I downloaded Netbeans 7.1.1 as suggested, and the error does not occur there.
I reviewed the messages log, it's indeed caused by subversion, the log is full of: > Caused: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.SVNClientInterface starting from ModuleCL@138c63[org.netbeans.libs.svnClientAdapter] What surprises me is the number of the build: > NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 20120219-unknown-revn) Mine 7.0.1 build comes from 2011/07/28: > NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 201107282000) (#370b28369872) The question is where you got and where you downloaded the NB installer from. But clearly the installation is corrupted. I suggest you either reinstall with the installer from http://netbeans.org/downloads/7.0.1/ or continue using 7.1.1
My 7.0.1 installation comes from a standard Debian package, running: # apt-get install netbeans in a shell. I will report the bug to the package maintainer so that he can fix the corrupted installation problem. In the meantime, I will install 7.0.1 from the web and see if it reproduces there.
