What is the problem here? Why are you trying to _edit_ the NetBeans installer file? Or am I missing something?

Simply reopen this issue, thanks.
Comment 2 Tomas Mysik 2016-11-14 07:01:02 UTC
BTW to install the file, just type "sh <installerfile>.sh" in your terminal (or try to double-click the file).

Thanks.

Dear Tomas,

I was not trying to edit the file. I was just installing Netbeans for PHP and this message popped up and halted the installer.

BTW. Using Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell laptop model 5520. Dual installation with Windows 7 Professional.
Comment 5 Tomas Mysik 2016-11-14 13:58:28 UTC
So install it from command line, as I described in comment #2. It will work.

Thanks.
