Passing on to Java module for the last exception:
java.lang.IllegalStateException:
org.netbeans.modules.java.JCompilerSupport$Compile.defaultCompilerType
returned null from CompilerSupport.addToJob. No info to reproduce,
however.

Re. java.io.IOException: Should not simultaneously have C:\Documents
and Settings\whb108\.netbeans\3.5\modules\installedModules.xml and
C:\Documents and
Settings\whb108\.netbeans\3.5\system\Modules\org-apache-tools-ant-module.xml
from ModuleList.upgradeCompatibly - true, it is an error (delete the
long obsolete installedModules.xml), but no info on how to reproduce
the *presence* of installedModules.xml initially, which should have
been automatically removed during a 3.2 -> 3.3 upgrade.

Re. org.netbeans.core.modules.InvalidException: Not a module: no
OpenIDE-Module tag in manifest of C:\Documents and
Settings\whb108\.netbeans\3.5\modules\serialversion.jar from
Module.parseManifest - due to old build system bugs, some old module
JARs had malformed manifests and do not work in recent releases.
Delete them or upgrade to current versions.

Re. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.netbeans.modules.web.core.syntax.JSPPrintOptions from
PrintSettings.readExternal - probably a bug in a web module, but no
info to reproduce.

Re. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: File:
Services/SearchType/org-netbeans-modules-vcscore-search-VcsSearchType.settings
- probably a bug in vcscore.

Re. java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Documents and
Settings\whb108\.netbeans\3.5\cache\all-layers.dat (Access is denied)
- no idea, user error?

Next time please be specific about what bug you are reporting, how to
reproduce it, etc. Unexplained log files don't do much good by themselves.

I received this error message when starting the IDE.  It can be
bypassed and everything seems to be OK after that.

This is a brand new installation which replaces SunOne Studio CE and
the JDK 1.4.1.
Comment 4 Martin Matula 2004-07-17 11:28:12 UTC 
Does not seem to be relevant anymore. Please reopen if I am wrong and
provide more info.
