Description Peter Lam 2008-12-12 17:55:53 UTC 
build 320 (20081212)

When python platform is installed in the "Program Files" location on Windows platform, auto detect doesn't find the
python platform. Manual adding it works but doing an auto detect will remove it from the list.

Confirmed on Mac too. Auto Detect does not find Python if spaces in path.  Also, manually adding is OK but auto detect
removes from the list.

I'm sorry you had difficulties. This issue has been re-prioritized to P3 in accordance with wiki.netbeans.org/BugPrioritiesGuidelines 

Although the current issue has not yet been fixed, it has NOW been added to the backlog. 

Current instructions for installation of Python Support on NetBeans IDE can be found at: http://wiki.netbeans.org/PythonInstall

This is now a community-supported project, endeavoring to return Python support to NetBeans. For more, see https://netbeans.org/projects/python/pages/Home

Thanks for your evaluation Julien. Reporter, if you think your issue is still valid and needs to be addressed, don't hesitate to reopen it with additional information. Closing for now.
