The exception shows something was badly broken in the installation (missing FormServices indicates a missing standard module). If there are consistent steps how the state can be reached, please let us know. I'd recommend to install a newer version of NetBeans, 7.2 is more than 3 years old. We have 8.0.2 out now already.
