Netbeans Background Scanner freezeed at currently 43%, slows down entire IDE, shows errors in code that are not there (typically these disappear when the scanning is done), breaks the search function. I can't create new files (it just says "please wait", and I have to kill the process to make it stop). All these errors started when the BG scanner began to not work for reasons I do not understand last week. I have installed 7.4, 8.0, and nightly builds. I have run with java 1.7, 1,8 and 1.8.0.5. I have installed the netbeans/java pachkage from oracle, and the ones from Netbeans. I have tried Oopenjdk 7 and 6. I have installed from the oppicial Ubuntu repo as well. I have installed from a virgin state with no plugins added (expect PHP). All have the same problems. I have made sure my disk is defect free. Currently it is frozen on a off-the-shelf install of Symfony 2 (from github). The log file (set to FINE) reports non-stop: INFO [org.netbeans.modules.git.status]: GitInterceptor.refreshTask: Scanning in progress, trying again in 10,000ms FINE [org.netbeans.modules.parsing.impl.indexing.RepositoryUpdater]: IsScanInProgress: (starting: false | working: true | path are changing: false) and FINE [org.netbeans.modules.parsing.impl.indexing.RepositoryUpdater]: Unregistering active document listener: activeDocument=org.netbeans.modules.csl.core.GsfDocument@49d1a506, mimeType='text/x-php5', kitClass=null, length=1721, version=1, file=org.netbeans.modules.csl.core.GsfDataObject@174bdeef[/store/jw/src/baraka/src/Baraka/CastBundle/Command/dbLanguageUpdateCommand.php@21b8d838:d731a63] INFO [org.netbeans.core.ui.focus]: External Changes Refresh on focus gain disabled I am running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, 3 GHz with 8 gigs of RAM. Sadly, Netbeans has become virtually useless until this backgroud scanner bug is fixed. I see also that many other peole are having the same problem. Possible reason why it stopped working... some upgrade to KDE/Ubuntu? Maybe the new RCU processes that I just saw appear (not that they weren;t there before... i just saw them now)... but GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="NOHZ=OFF rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_suppress=1" dind't do anything :( I have the exact same experience on my laptop (same OS, running netbeans-dev-201405010001) Laptop Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201405010001) Java: 1.7.0_51; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 24.51-b03 Runtime: OpenJDK Runtime Environment 1.7.0_51-b31 System: Linux version 3.13.0-24-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) User directory: /home/jw/.netbeans/dev Cache directory: /home/jw/.cache/netbeans/dev PC Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201405010001) Java: 1.8.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.5-b02 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_05-b13 System: Linux version 3.12.0-2-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) User directory: /home/jw/.netbeans/dev Cache directory: /home/jw/.cache/netbeans/dev Laptop
Please, try to install updates using Help->Check for updates in NetBeans 8.0. It should update your IDE to patch 1.1 (could be found after the update process in Help->About). There was a problem with parsing of Twig files. The fix should be also in latest nightly build.
