Description Peter Lam 2009-01-21 07:58:46 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20090120172641)
Java: 1.6.0_11; Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM 11.0-b16
System: Windows Vista version 6.0 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
Userdir: C:\Users\peter\.netbeans\dev20090120-b684

When I right click on any python project and select Build Egg, I got the following error in the output window.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\peter\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PyThreads-ABC\src\setup.py", line 4, in <module>
    from setuptools import setup,find_packages
ImportError: No module named setuptools

'Clean and Build Egg' menu option also gives the same error.
Comment 2 amitksaha 2009-01-21 08:05:03 UTC 
There are 2 possible scenarios:

1. Your platform is Jython: In this case, this won't work. (I have been thinking of "disabling" the actions when the
platform is Jython)

2. Your platform is Python, but you do not have 'setuptools' installed.
Comment 3 Peter Lam 2009-01-21 08:29:24 UTC 
It's #1. I was using my default jython platform. I changed my platform to python 2.5 where I installed my setuptools and
it works great. User error, sorry.
