Comment 1 sunbiz 2008-07-26 12:16:45 UTC 
This look very similar to Issue 141242 which I had submitted a few days back. But I will ask someone from the assigned 
QA to confirm the duplicate.
Comment 2 Milan Kubec 2008-07-28 12:02:55 UTC 
The original problem behind the IllegalArgumentException is failed WebProject$ProjectOpenedHookImpl

java.lang.NullPointerException: The serverInstanceId parameter cannot be null
...
Comment 3 David Konecny 2008-07-29 01:54:57 UTC 
Milan, how did you figure out NullPointerException? Where is full stack trace? This issue is IMO duplicate of 141242.
Comment 4 Milan Kubec 2008-07-29 07:37:08 UTC 
See the URL field: http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/detail.do?id=82360

and there you need to read the XML file, which contains all exceptions that were thrown:

http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/loggerasxml?id=82360

I think that original problem is the mentioned NPE which causes the project not being opened and then setting the
project as main fails.
Comment 5 David Konecny 2008-07-30 05:56:52 UTC 
That NPE was introduced by jchalupa and fixed in http://hg.netbeans.org/main?cmd=changeset;node=0945ad92dc9c
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2008-09-09 20:22:26 UTC 
It is a bug in projectui if a bug in web.project can cause projectui to later throw IAE from its own code, isn't it?
Comment 7 David Konecny 2008-09-09 23:18:39 UTC 
You mean projectui should be more defensive and not fail with

 "IllegalArgumentException: NB_REPORTER_IGNORE: Project XXX is not open and cannot be set as main."

but rather re-throw underlaying NPE from web.project annotated with "project XXX opening failed"? That would certainly help.
Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2008-09-10 02:44:47 UTC 
Yes, something like that.
