Description javydreamercsw 2012-09-24 20:16:22 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.2 (Build 201207171143)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_07
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 23.3-b01

Got a couple of errors trying to rename a class from the refactoring menu. It failed when trying to rename the file. It was something related with Mercurial.

cannot reproduce, maybe an issue with write access privileges of the directory? Mercurial calls srcFile.renameTo(dstFile). If that fails, there's not much more we can do. Check your write rights to the folder: Z:\NetBeans\jWrestling\jWrestling\src\main\java\games\jwrestling\core\game\object\page\
Comment 3 javydreamercsw 2012-09-25 11:53:13 UTC 
I have right permissions to all the places in the drive. Renaming the file manually was successful. The things that come to mind are:
1) The file was open in the editor (I did the refactoring from the class name)
2) Slow I/O (project on an external drive)

I saw the following in the attached log that might be related to #1:

INFO [org.netbeans.modules.refactoring.spi.impl.ParametersPanel]: org.netbeans.modules.refactoring.api.RefactoringSession@2ca902 called start multiple times
Comment 4 Ondrej Vrabec 2012-09-25 12:12:54 UTC 
anyway, refactoring should be prepared for a failed rename and instead of logging as SEVERE it should probable display a friendlier message:
> SEVERE [org.openide.util.RequestProcessor]: Error in RequestProcessor org.netbeans.modules.refactoring.spi.impl.ParametersPanel$9
Comment 5 Martin Balin 2015-09-17 11:00:05 UTC 
Report from old NetBeans version. Due to code changes since it was reported likely to not happen. Feel free to reopen if happens in 8.0.2 or 8.1.
