This is P2 because I can go to log file on disk and copy, but that is unacceptable workflow. Why was this feature disabled? I can go to other tabs and highlight. If I try to highlight in the GlassFish output window tab it just moves the cursor to wherever the mouse is. I'm using 6.5 200809031401. When I started it up it said there is a new GlassFish plugin, so I installed the update and restarted NetBeans.
I just pulled the sources available right now. I have no significant changes in my local workspace. I rebuilt the IDE. I started the IDE. I started a v2 server. The server log window opened. It started to fill with text. I did a copy.... I was able to paste back into an NB editor. I was able to paste into an external program (Firefox)... here is the paste... WEB0302: Starting Sun-Java-System/Application-Server. JBIFW0010: JBI framework ready to accept requests. WEB0712: Starting Sun-Java-System/Application-Server HTTP/1.1 on 8080 WEB0712: Starting Sun-Java-System/Application-Server HTTP/1.1 on 8181 WEB0712: Starting Sun-Java-System/Application-Server HTTP/1.1 on 4848 SMGT0007: Self Management Rules service is enabled Application server startup complete. I am on Solaris 10. I am using JDK 1.5.0_16 for the IDE Please provide additional details if you can still reproduce this issue with the 0904 nightly of 6.5.
I was still able to reproduce it. I noticed that there is another update for the GlassFish plugin. I had 1.6.0.1 installed, and the update was for 1.6.0.1.1. I installed the update, restarted the IDE and problem solved.
glad to hear it. I am closing this as worksforme... since it did. it sound like it works for you, too. the code for the server log window has been pretty static for a long time. The code in the next layer down from the plugin has been pretty static, too. So, I am going to flag this as a RANDOM issue, too.
After leaving NetBeans open all day, I came back to it and this is happening again. As I hold the mouse button down and drag the mouse over the GlassFish output window, the cursor follows the mouse but does not highlight.
OK. I will reopen this and keep looking. Can you provide real data on the platform (OS, hardware, memory) you are running on? How about the jdk you are running against? Without this kind of info, it will be virtually impossible to make progress on making code changes to resolve this.

I just noticed this problem happening on a Maven2 build output window in addition to the GlassFish V2 output window, so I don't think it is specific to the GlassFish plugin. I only started seeing this the day I reported the problem. Using previous nightly builds I did not notice this problem.
It sounds like this is a problem at the interface between Java and the OS/Window system clipboard... I found this issue... http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4818143 which may have "reopened" in releases since the initial fix delivery. The NB window system guys will have more experience with this type of stuff. Reassigning to them to evaluate.
Created attachment 69404 [details] selection/copy an paste works
it worksforme on winXP. Ryan, could you try different jdk?
Dupl. of #137327
