Created attachment 114734 [details] Log of the failed install The installer bails out apparently trying to change file ownership. See attached installer log
Created attachment 114800 [details] a snippet from installation log I'm not able to reproduce the problem on my machine. It's obvious installer changes the ownership of NetBeans folder, I don't think it might be a reason why your installation failed. Anyway, NetBeans itself installs native Mac installer by given configuration file, no code of NetBeans installer being executed I guess. Could you download IDE and try it again? If fails again, look in attached log from my installation (just a snippet, whole log has more than 4MB) and try to change ownership yourself and let me know. Thanks
