Description javydreamercsw 2015-09-01 17:15:48 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 8.1 Beta (Build 201508041349)
Operating System = Linux version 3.13.0-62-generic running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0_60
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.60-b23

For some unknown reason, the installer for 8.1 beta (on linux) didn't configure the JDK location correctly. I have a 8.0.2 version installed prior to installing the beta version that worked fine.

See the attachment to see the correction I had to make (based on the working one) to make it work right.

Javier, can you reproduce it? If you do, does it mean that you for example select your preferred JDK during installation but when you launch 8.1 the IDE uses other JDK?

Hi, I would appreciate the installer log rather than IDE log :) Could you please attach it? <user home>/.nbi/log

Thanks

I uninstalled and reinstalled with the following results:
1) It listed /usr and usr/lib/jvm... as valid installations, both 1.8.60 64 bits
2) Same issue when started the application.

I assume it does use something different. Is weird that the 8.0.1 seems to work fine on the same setup.

This changeset may could be the cause - http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/f99407f18f80
Comment 8 Libor Fischmeistr 2015-09-08 17:07:24 UTC 
Javier, I would like to ask you for list off files in /usr directory...

probably there is some mismatch. The new Java checking algorithm detects JDK here, but not properly...
