Description tgardner 2011-03-29 05:31:17 UTC 
The install works ok.  When I open NB 6.9.1 I only see one link in the title bar (Net Beans). If I click About it says version 1.0.  I have been successfully using 6.7.1 and would like to upgrade to 6.9.1.  I have tried everything except uninstalling 6.7.1.  6.7.1 shows that there are no upgrades necessary. Nothing on the web that is similar to this.  I downloaded and installed only the PHP, then deleted it and then tried to install the entire 282 MB package.  Still no luck.  Mac OSX 10.6.7.

Start the IDE with a fresh userdir (--userdir PATH_TO_NEW_USERDIR) and attach the message log when the IDE shows up (PATH_TO_NEW_USERDIR/var/log/message.log)

messages.log from 6.9.1 install

Your post directed me to where I should be looking so I deleted userdir/.netbeans/6.9/ folder. Then I deleted the install of 6.9.1 from Applications.  I reran the install and for the first time it asked me if I wanted to import the User settings or preferences (forgotten exactly what was said).  I did import them and the installation worked this time.  There are still errors though so I am including the message.log file.  Thank you.

Your installation is still missing some critical modules. I suggest you redownload 6.9.1 installer and reinstall again. This time run the installation with '--output out.txt' and attach the out.txt after the installation.
Then start the IDE (*do not import anything*) and check if it's working correctly. If not, attach the IDE log again.
