open project

Today a project crashed the same way. It was working until today, but a simple Git pull execution caused the issue. 
I have reviewed all files setting them back to previous working version.....the same result.
The solution has been removing the /home/[user]/.netbeans/7.4 folder and then the project opens as expected.

Can you attach a project that can be used to reproduce the problem? Or steps? Or a log file when the problem happens again?

Project files

POM Project and 1 one model "Tripadvisor". This module is what causes the error.

But, I think the problem is in the user/.netbeans/7.4 folder. Tell me which files do you want me to attach from there.

Just after the error.

Can you give more info about the project itself? Or attach the project?

Or next time the project happens, zip up your userdir, and attach it to this issue. (Or do a diff yourself between your old userdir and a fresh userdir, to identify the problematic file.)

OK, opened the project, no problem in opening it. Is that all I need to do? Or, please, steps to reproduce, steps look like this:

1.

2.

3.

If you like I can attach the .netbeans/7.4 folder, but it weighs 27 Mb.

OK, the project you attached opened without any problem at all.

So, here's how we're going to fix this problem:

1. Start NetBeans IDE 7.4 with a fresh user directory. In other words DELETE the user directory and restart NetBeans IDE.

2. When the problem occurs again, immediately upload the log file here, as well as a ZIP that contains your complete user directory.

Adding myself to the cc.

If I clean the user directory it works well.

The problem is in my user directory, that time to time it corrupts or something.

Some time ago I get this exact erro ( and I filed this issue ) , and I removed the user directory...all gone well, until now.

I have opened the same projects with NB 7.3 and Intellij Idea. Doing this may crash the NB 7.4 user directory ?

When the problem occurs again, immediately upload the log file here, as well as a ZIP that contains your complete user directory.

I have delete the user directories and the problem is still the same. I have to use GF 2.x (on my computer 2.1.1) and if I add this Application server to NB 7.4 with all plugins updated the bug still occurs. 

One remark: The project window can not be closed by click "finish".

When the problem occurs again, immediately upload the log file here, as well as a ZIP that contains your complete user directory.

user directory with log file

The log file shows nothing about GlassFish 2.2.1. Instead, I see this:

INFO [glassfish]: Created GlassFish Server 4 instance with name GlassFish Server 4.0
WARNING [org.netbeans.modules.java.j2seplatform.libraries.J2SELibraryTypeProvider]: Wrong Classpath entry file:/Applications/NetBeans/glassfish-4.0/mq/lib/jaxm-api.jar in Library: Java-EE-GlassFish-v3-Prelude


Seems like something is pretty messed up with your GlassFish installation. I recommend uninstalling all your GlassFish installations and only installing the one you're actually going to use. Then register that one in NetBeans IDE.

My user directory zipped ( 27 Mb )

Where Netbeans stores the Server to run for a maven web project ?

Search for "Tomcat" or "Glassfish" or whatever the server name is, in your project. It took me 2 seconds to find -- nb-configuration.xml.

I did that before adding the comment.

This is the content of my nb-configuration.xml. As you can see there is no information about glassfish, tomcat....

Because you haven't yet assigned a server to any of your projects.

Also, looking at your user directory, it is clearly from sometime last week, I think Thursday the 12th of December. That's why it's so large.

Please do the following:

1. Close down NetBeans IDE.
2. Make sure that you really did close NetBeans IDE. Maybe also just kill all Java processes (pkill).
3. Now delete the user directory. I.e., go to '.netbeans' and delete the '7.4' folder that you find there, i.e., the same one you zipped up and attached to this issue.
4. Make sure you actually deleted the user directory.
5. Restart NetBeans IDE. You will be asked if some other user directory should be imported (if you have another user directory). Do NOT import any user directory.

Then, when the problem happens again after doing the above, upload the user directory here again.

This is likely caused by an incompatible API change.

For some reason all the users reporting the issue have ancient version of the plugin installed:
org.netbeans.modules.j2ee.sun.appsrv81/1 [1.11.0.1 1 201002152000]

The plugin supporting the GFv1 and GFv2 is not available anywhere. At least it looks like that. Can anybody confirm that this is actually some old nbm isntalled from elsewhere?

I guess it is coming from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16419034/glassfish-v2-in-netbeans-7-2

I don't remember why the GFv2 support has been removed: http://hg.netbeans.org/web-main/rev/34013300120d

Petre, do you remember any details?

I believe the team did not have the bandwidth to maintain the GFv2 plugin.
