Run installer on Win XP: netbeans-trunk-nightly-2 01211190002-windows.exe -J-Dextra.update.center.url=http://nbinstaller.cz.oracle .com:8080/view/Other/job/Test_nbms-and-uc_for_patch/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact /dist/uc/catalog.xml.gz Installer installs IDE and checks for updates from supplied catalog. Finds updates and begins to download them. After a while, final panel appears saying installation was successful. However, self-update mechanism failed - seems like download was not complete and headless restart after downloaded updates was not performed, which leaves IDE in inconsistent state (IDE cannot be started).
FYI: reproduced the same behaviour on Windows 7.

Based on this log I think there are two different cases, the first one on Win XP failed by a unknown reason, the second one on Win 7 failed because the timeout for the whole operation expired - it needs to handle the timeout in a different way. The Win XP case needed more investigation. Anyway, it's necessary to avoid IDE to launch with inconsistent updates in any case.
