Editor does not allow me to rename the file. I select refactor and rename.. nothing happens.. I select a file in project heirarchy and press "f2" for renaming, nothing happens again.
Are there any exception in the log? Have you the write permission for that file?

My guess is that at some point in time you installed the org.ajax4jf.* plugin, it installed something to your userdir, then you uninstalled or disabled it, but it didn't unregister everything from your userdir. So, there are hooks to the refactoring infrastructure that can't be accessed, because the module classes are gone. I would suggest launching the IDE with a fresh userdir (ie. use --userdir /tmp/fresh-userdir) and see if the problem remains.
Can you please explain in detail what should I do. I am using Vista Ultimate and below is the user directory structure. C:\Users\PLAMSPAN\.netbeans\5.5 C:\Users\PLAMSPAN\.netbeans\6.0 C:\Users\PLAMSPAN\.netbeans\6.0beta1 C:\Users\PLAMSPAN\.netbeans\6.0rc1 C:\Users\PLAMSPAN\.netbeans-derby I am currently using 6.0 version.
One more information if it would help you. I have only Netbeans 6.0rc1 and 6.0 on my machine now. I uninstalled other in the morning today.
From the stack trace, it looks like the libraries jar files are not being found by the IDE. I would do/check the following: 1. steps mentioned in comment no. 5. 2. please make sure that you didn't accidentally delete the required libraries. 3. do you have the required ajax4jsf libraries added to the classpath. Otherwise you will run into issues.
