Description lukaszlenart 2008-03-26 16:14:49 UTC 
I try to install NetBeans (Web && Java EE) without bundled Tomcat and Glassfish, but it is impossible. You have to at
least select on server to install. 
Right now I can not reproduce it, but few hours early, I have just installed NB without those servers.

Actually this occurs if you have already NetBeans 6.1 Beta installed (at least, including Base IDE, Java SE, Web & Java 
EE packs) and run it again. 
I realize that the error message shoud be clear in such a case to explain the situation.
Comment 3 lukaszlenart 2008-03-26 19:02:16 UTC 
Yes, you have right, I have checked it and it is exactly as you mentioned. The error message made me embarrass ;-)
