Description _ hong_lin 2008-11-05 21:40:40 UTC

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 20081105122310) -- Continues build #153
Java: 1.6.0_07; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b23
System: Windows Vista version 6.0 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)

Steps to reproduce it:
1. Start the IDE with a clean userdir.
2. Select File -> New Project in the main menu. 
3. Select Python -- Python project. Click Next. The "New Python Project" panel comes up. The "Python Platform" field is
empty: <Valid platform has to be selected>. I was told that jython should be the default platform (See attached
screenshot MissingJpythonPlatform.png).
4. Click "Manage..." button. 
5. Click "New" to add new platform: Select the built-in jython (located at <netbeans>/python1/jpython-2.5/jython.jar),
and click "Open".
  ==> Nothing happened. The following exception and ExecutionException can be found in messages.log file (attached)

Comment 3 ardavis26 2008-11-05 22:35:15 UTC

You are not supposed to select the jar file you are supposed to select the bat file in the bin directory (bin/jython.bat)

Comment 4 _ hong_lin 2008-11-05 22:54:42 UTC

Sorry for giving the wrong steps.

But I still couldn't add the jython platform, even thought I tried to add the right file:
<netbeans>/python1/jpython-2.5/bin/jython.bat

This time, I receive a new PythonException, detail can be found in the attached messages-bat.log file, it is also not
exactly like the exception in issue 152377:
org.netbeans.modules.python.api.PythonException: Could not discover Python properties

exception when add jython.bat

Comment 6 ardavis26 2008-11-05 23:06:04 UTC

Added exec filter on File Chooser to get rid of this problem

Comment 7 ardavis26 2008-11-05 23:10:31 UTC

can you open a dos propmt and navigate to the jython directory and run jython from the command line

Comment 8 ardavis26 2008-11-06 17:01:53 UTC

I have tested this twice on a windows xp box and I still don't see it.  my linux box does not have this issue either.
Try the latest build 157 and see if it goes away.

Comment 9 _ hong_lin 2008-11-07 01:17:15 UTC

It is fixed in the latest build #160. :)

Comment 10 _ hong_lin 2008-11-07 01:18:36 UTC

Verified the fix in build #160. But the latest installer build still has the problem.
