Description nick756 2007-12-10 05:18:46 UTC 
On trying to open any file in any project in newly installed NetBeans 6.0 error message "A java.lang.ClassCastException
exception has occurred." appeared. It is not possible to even view existing Java (and other) files, neither for
existing, nor for newly created projects.

Comment 3 Vitezslav Stejskal 2007-12-10 20:16:33 UTC 
It looks like a problem with settings imported from Nb 5.x. Please try using a fresh userdir. You can do that for
example by passing '--userdir /tmp/whatever-folder-you-like' when launching Netbeans. Thanks
