This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Often people have problems during installation that could be easily solved by rm -rf $HOME/.nbi, as documented by the Wiki, but often don't find it and ask to the mailing list. So, I suggest putting something such as "Please look at http://nbi.netbeans.org/docs/faq.html#cleaning" (with a clickable link) in the error popup.
