+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #89584 +++

Hi,

I'm creating a new bug since the other similar one is closed and my problem is different than the other user.  
I'm also having a problem with Visual web pack installation but my details are different.  I have jdk 1.8.0_25 and I installed Netbeans 8.1 and downloaded netbeans-visualweb-5_5_1-windows.exe, double clicked it to install the web pack. 
First it said that it said "no JDK was found on this system".  Then it asked me to open java.exe.  So I browsed the file.  clicked open and then a new window popped up:
The wizard cannot continue because of the following error:  could not load wizard specified in /wizard.inf (104)
WARNING:  could not delete temporary file C:\temp\ismp006
WARNING:  could not delete temporary file C:\temp\ismp006\3406351
WARNING:  could not delete temporary file C:\temp\ismp006\2988104

after the above message i went back to my temp folder and deleted all the temp files it created, but every time i try to run the .exe file, it creats new ismp with 001,002,003 and so on and gives me the above message.

According to the installation guide, I also tried to specify a different temp directory but my issue is not about space anyway.

Hi there again!

I've looked at similar bugs and they are telling me to do the following:

Description: If you have the Java Web Services Developer Pack
installed, the NetBeans IDE installer might fail with the message:
"The wizard cannot continue because of the following error: could not
load wizard specified in /wizard.inf (104). Install will not continue."  

Workaround: Move the jre/lib/endorsed/sax.jar file from your J2SDK
installation before installing NetBeans IDE. You can move the file
back after completing the NetBeans IDE installation.

However, in my jdk 8 I can't even find endorsed directory and there's no sax.jar anywhere?........so I have no idea what to do
