Comment 2 Theofanis Oikonomou 2015-08-27 10:18:25 UTC 
I cannot reproduce on:
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20150824-f2c2ae933a51)
Java: 1.7.0_80; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.80-b11
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.7.0_80-b15
System: Linux version 3.16.0-44-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb)

using latest server version 2.47.1. I could follow your steps up to step 3. session got created normally and no exception was thrown. In any case though the exception you posted comes from selenium itself so I am guessing it got fixed on their end in the mean while :)
