Description kvgeorge1 2008-03-04 14:16:14 UTC 
I just downloaded the recent install of NBeans (200803021202) and after the install, got a WARNING message upon startup 
that Web Services and CSS Visual Editor modules could not be located.

I see the problem with CSS:

modules-css2.jar could not be found, ignoring...

Seems that the cluster name is missing in css2 path (who knows why...)

Thanks for looking into this so quickly.
Comment 9 Petr Jiricka 2008-03-26 15:45:33 UTC 
Can you please try with a clean NB settings directory (C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\.netbeans\dev)? There have
been changes in the list of modules, so this may be the problem.
Comment 10 kvgeorge1 2008-03-26 15:49:51 UTC 
I have not had this problem with any of the later releases, only this one.
