Description kamilparal 2009-09-18 21:50:03 UTC

I have been uninstalling Python plugins from NetBeans. This is what I got in the console during the splash "uninstalling
plugins" shown after IDE restart was requested:

java.io.IOException: No such file or directory
	at java.io.UnixFileSystem.createFileExclusively(Native Method)
	at java.io.File.createNewFile(File.java:883)
	at org.netbeans.updater.UpdaterDispatcher.touchLastModified(UpdaterDispatcher.java:156)
	at org.netbeans.updater.ModuleDeactivator.delete(ModuleDeactivator.java:70)
	at org.netbeans.updater.UpdaterDispatcher.dispatch(UpdaterDispatcher.java:76)
	at org.netbeans.updater.UpdaterDispatcher.run(UpdaterDispatcher.java:149)
	at org.netbeans.updater.UpdaterFrame.main(UpdaterFrame.java:233)

It repeated 16 times. No exception popped-up in the IDE afterwards and the plugins seem to be uninstalled, at least in
the plugin browser.

Ubuntu 9.04, running as root.

I'm sorry you had difficulties. While we are still experiencing exceptions, the issue you described has been fixed.

Current instructions for installation of Python Support on NetBeans IDE can be found at: http://wiki.netbeans.org/PythonInstall

This is now a community-supported project, endeavoring to return Python support to NetBeans. For more, see https://netbeans.org/projects/python/pages/Home
