Comment 1 tomwheeler 2010-04-26 20:48:06 UTC 
I can reproduce this under the following environment:

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.9 Beta (Build 201004200117)
Java: 1.6.0_18; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.0-b13
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
Userdir: C:\Documents and Settings\twheeler\.netbeans\6.9beta

If you create a new platform app using the NetBeans Platform Application wizard, you *can* successfully build a ZIP distribution. It's only when you remove modules as Carlo described that it fails.
Comment 2 tomwheeler 2010-04-26 22:20:49 UTC 
I was able to reproduce this in 6.8 too.  The root of the problem seems to be that, in this case, the only modules which are included are those which appear somewhere other than the modules directory (e.g. core, lib).

Carlo: Until this is fixed, a workaround is to include an additional module.  Something like UI Utilities or JUnit 4, which which doesn't do much and has no other dependencies, would be a good choice.  This will allow you to build a ZIP distribution.
