When I start 3.5.1 RC1, I get the following error message:

I'm not sure it's related, but also at the same token, the 
import of settings/projects from 3.4.1 does not work.

Need your ide.log file ("Create a new attachment"). Also need to know
where serialversion.jar came from. From Auto Update? Downloaded when -
from inside 3.5, or in an earlier version of NetBeans? Need to know
the exact version of serialversion.jar - attach the manifest
(META-INF/MANIFEST.MF).

Hi there..

As you can see I attached ide.log for you. I believe the
serialversion.jar came as a part of the original 3.5RC1 installation.
I do not recall having used the autoupdate on 3.5RC1 yet.

Here's a copy of what's in teh Manifest file:
------------ START -------------
OpenIDE-Module: org.netbeans.modules.serialversion/1
OpenIDE-Module-Name: Serial Version UIDs
OpenIDE-Module-Specification-Version: 0.2
OpenIDE-Module-Implementation-Version: dev-16

Name: org/netbeans/modules/serialversion/SVUIDAction.class
OpenIDE-Module-Class: Action
------------ FINISH ------------

Huh, you somehow wound up with a copy of serialversion.jar from late
2000 - probably saved in your $userdir/modules/ during an old auto
update session. Its manifest is invalid due to a bug in an old version
of Ant; older versions of NB apparently did not care, but NB 3.5 is
stricter (actually the JDK does the parsing here). You should delete
the JAR, and if you still want to run it, download a current version
(available on the Update Center for 3.5).
