NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200711051856) - zip build Java: 1.5.0_13; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_13-119 System: Mac OS X version 10.5 running on ppc; MacRoman; en_US (nb) Reproduced See statistics page for stack trace http://statistics.netbeans.org/exceptions/detail.do?id=10679 http://statistics.netbeans.org/exceptions/detail.do?id=10682 first project clean userdir no import of previous settings this NPE occurs while the project is scanning; don't get a designer screen and cannot drop components, project unusable; second project created is ok. I tried this same build on a G5 running Leopard, first project creation gave me a Missing Body Element.
Do you see this problem with NetBeans web project + JSF framework ? From the stack trace, it looks like the renderers are not getting loaded. thanks
I don't have any leopard machine to check. Can you attach the full IDE log to take a look at it. The Exceptions you added to the bug does not give me a clue what is going on. I don't know if we should consider this bug a p1, because there are tons of Java related problem on Leopard. Is Leopard a supported platform for NB 6.0?
leopard is not yet supported platform
It's not supported but we can expect that more users will switch to this OS after NB 6.0 release and this basic feature should work or at least we should evaluate the problem.
We seem to have a race condition that comes and goes with each build here. Although yesterday I could reproduce this 3 times for the first project on a clean userdir on build 11051856, I could not reproduce it on a cold start this a.m. - same build. I downloaded the latest zip 11061433 and could not reproduce it. It's too bad that the NPE does not help us because we intermittently complain in QE of having issues that also lead to Missing Body Element and it seems to occur on slower machines. In this issue's case, it's a G4 laptop powerpc (i.e non-Intel.)
Lots of things have been changed in the past couple of days, especially related to JSP parsing. I saw the missing body element yesterday in Windwos Vista. Also I saw a popup dialog keep poping up and saying "invalid" xml. It was build 4312. So when I looked at the hudson build, there were lots of test failure on 4312. But build 4314 did not have any test failures, so I downloaded it and tested again in Windows Vista. Neither I saw th popup dialog nor missing body element. Not sure if Build 200711051856 is one such build.
Closing as works for me.
