Thank you for your report! It seems the config directories are not present anymore/were deleted. The fix:

http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/aa7988b9e466

ensures, that the target directories are created if they don't exists.

If you can reproduce the problem, please check the nightly builds and VERIFY the fix, when this fix is integrated. A message will be posted here, when that will be the case.
