The only VCS I use is mercurial so I used to turn off CVS and Subversion in 6.8, in 6.9 I can't. This generates issues, for example, when I have a project that uses external code distributed through SVN that I need to modify (for example, Symfony) but for which I don't use SVN (as I said, I use mercurial); for some blasphemic reason SVN takes priority and I cannot commit my mercurial changes (I keep the .svn directory for updating purposes). And not only I cannot commit changes, but I also cannot see line changes, or file changes.
Reassigning.
> The only VCS I use is mercurial so I used to turn off CVS and Subversion in 6.8, in 6.9 I can't. i've just tried to deactivate svn and cvs and everything seemed to work fine. could you please elaborate, what exactly doesn't work in 6.9? thanks
At least subversion does not actually deactivate; the only thing that deactivates is Team. I am running Windows 7 x64. The steps I went through testing just now: 1.- Deactivated CVS & SVN, told me I needed to deactivate Team, restarted 2.- Went to plugins, Team was deactivated, CVS and SVN still active, tried to deactivate again, restarted. 3.- Same result (Team deactivated, CVS and SVN still active). 4.- Went to my Mercurial project with subversion in some folders, same result as before: There is no Mercurial versioning in the files with svn. In 6.8 I could do this with no problem (getting rid of SVN). Regards

Created attachment 101599 [details] Configuration files disabling vcs plugins
duplicate of bug #186720 - fixed in dev builds. You have to options how to get the mercurial support working again: 1) uninstall CVS, Subversion instead of disabling them. This will probably cause an error message during next start complaining about some missing modules. Click on 'Disable Modules and Continue'. 2) do a bit of hacking and disable all modules manually. Extract files from the attached disabled-module.tgz into USERDIR/config/Modules folder. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 186720 ***

Hi, I am also having this issue, currently using Netbeans 6.9.1. What is the easiest way to apply the fix without waiting for 6.10? Thanks, Matt
This seems to be a general problem with plugins (at the very least, the version control plugins). I am currently unable to deactivate the Mercurial and CVS plugins on this machine (NetBeans 6.9.1; Windows XP SP3). However, on another machine (NetBeans 6.9.1; Windows XP SP3), I *was* able to deactivate these plugins. I tried manually hacking the XML files for these plugins by shutting down NetBeans, opening up the appropriate files in %APPDATA%\.netbeans\6.9\config\Modules\, changing the "enabled" parameter to "false", and saving the file. Unfortunately, upon restarting NetBeans, the "enabled" parameters for these plugins are reset to "true".
