Bug 204976

Summary: Netbeans randomly exits to desktop
Product: platform Reporter: mpok
Component: JDK ProblemsAssignee: Antonin Nebuzelsky <anebuzelsky>
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX    
Severity: normal Keywords: RANDOM
Priority: P3    
Version: 7.1   
Hardware: PC   
OS: Windows 7   
Issue Type: DEFECT Exception Reporter:
Attachments: messages logs and java exception logs for nb 7.1beta and 7.0.1

Description mpok 2011-11-11 09:08:04 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.1 Beta (Build 201109252201)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_18
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 16.0-b13

This was happening in 7.0.1 but 7.1 also seems to be affected. When I'm working on a PHP project Netbeans randomly just exists without saying anything. It seems to happen on arbitrary moments, so I can't give you any steps to reproduce sadly. Both me and my colleague (both on Win7) seem to have this issue. Is there a log I could attach to help?

Please, attach two logs:

* netbeans log (http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqLogMessagesFile)

* the contents of the JVM log file created (for example, hs_err_pid2416.log) which you will find on your disk

and reopen this bug. Thanks.

Created attachment 113130 [details]
messages logs and java exception logs for nb 7.1beta and 7.0.1

Attachment contains all messages logs and exception logs for both my Netbeans 7.0.1 and 7.1 installations. The hs_err files do indeed coincide with the two crashes I've had today.

Garbage Collection failure.

You are using very old version of Java (6u18). Can you update to the latest 6u29 or 7u1? There were many bugs fixed since then including crashes.

Please, reopen if you see the problem with 6u29 or 7u1. Thanks.
