dev build 200108220100 Sun JDK 1.3.1 After erasing my userDir and restarting Netbeans I changed the default colors, exited and restarted Netbeans. I get "cannot open windows due to deserialization" and the following exception. Setting to P2 because editor cannot be opened: Wed Aug 22 14:50:35 EDT 2001: java.lang.NullPointerException: null java.lang.NullPointerException at org.netbeans.core.windows.WorkspaceImpl.findMode (WorkspaceImpl.java:401) at org.netbeans.core.windows.WindowManagerImpl$TopComponentManager.doOpen (WindowManagerImpl.java:1413) at org.netbeans.core.windows.WindowManagerImpl$TopComponentManager.open (WindowManagerImpl.java:1384) at org.openide.windows.TopComponent.open (TopComponent.java:195) at org.openide.text.CloneableEditor.open (CloneableEditor.java:263) at org.openide.windows.TopComponent.open (TopComponent.java:182) at org.openide.windows.CloneableOpenSupport.openCloneableTopComponent (CloneableOpenSupport.java:147) at org.openide.windows.CloneableOpenSupport$1.run (CloneableOpenSupport.java:67) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch (InvocationEvent.java:154) [catch] at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:337) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy (EventDispatchThread.java:131) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy (EventDispatchThread.java:98) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents (EventDispatchThread.java:93) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run (EventDispatchThread.java:85)
Sorry, all works for me, I cannot reproduce the error. Try to specify exact steps what you did, details are very important. I also tried to change color, got an exception (this one in your other bug report), recovered from exc, exited, restarted, and all worked well. Your reproduction steps, please? Thanks.
Leaving this as WORKSFORME until I can get more concrete repro steps. You might want to try following the steps in issue #14695, which always seemed to work for me.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified.
