Build: NetBeans IDE 8.0.1 (Build 201408251540) VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, 25.25-b02, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment, 1.8.0_25-b17 OS: Linux User Comments: GUEST: I was updating my project from repository. The problem is my coleague committed changes to the project, he even changed type of the project from Java application to HTML5 project. After the update, I went to project properties and I have set the web and web-inf directories on the Sources tab. I think then the exception occured. Stacktrace: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.netbeans.modules.java.api.common.SourceRoots$7.run(SourceRoots.java:370) at org.openide.util.Mutex.writeAccess(Mutex.java:479) at org.netbeans.modules.java.api.common.SourceRoots.putRoots(SourceRoots.java:356) at org.netbeans.modules.web.project.ui.customizer.WebProjectProperties.storeRoots(WebProjectProperties.java:930) at org.netbeans.modules.web.project.ui.customizer.WebProjectProperties.storeProperties(WebProjectProperties.java:679) at org.netbeans.modules.web.project.ui.customizer.WebProjectProperties.access$200(WebProjectProperties.java:131)
Created attachment 150340 [details] stacktrace
Either broken project.xml with no source-roots with "http://www.netbeans.org/ns/j2se-project/3" namespace or broken XML parser not handling namespaces. Be sure no XML Parser is on JDK endorsed classpath. Better exception with project.xml content is now thrown. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 242403 ***
