Description athompson 2013-04-03 19:38:53 UTC 
1. Do a clean install of the java SE daily build (remove any user and cache directories).
2. Start IDE.
3! Open plugin manager and try to install "Java EE Base". You get an error dialog with the following text, and the install cannot continue:

    Some plugins require plugin Java Editor to be installed.

    The plugin Java Editor is requested in implementation version 9.

    The following plugin is affected:
        Java EE Base

Similarly, if upgrading from an earlier version of the daily builds (my previous version was 30 March with the Java EE Base plugin installed in the user directory), you get a bunch of plugin errors at startup.

It doesn't look like it logged anything when I get the dialog saying that the plugin couldn't be installed. I did get a NPE at shutdown, though...

This log file is a first-run of a clean install. There are some warnings about the editor module having a deprecated dep, but this error occurred before  attempting to install the plugin. Nothing was added to the log file when the plugin install attempt failed. Do I need to change the log level? If so, how?

The issue seems to have gone away in the latest daily build.
