Description rptmaestro 2006-04-06 18:22:25 UTC 
I am trying to create a web application from existing sources, but the new 
project wizard keeps causing errors and fails to create some of the project 
files. The source files themselves are read-only because they have not yet 
been checked out of the VCS, but there is no indication from the new project 
wizard that it needs to write to any of the existing files. It simply fails 
and flashes the error icon. I will attach a stack trace from messages.log.

Comment 2 Radko Najman 2006-09-07 16:07:41 UTC 
I don't think it can be caused by read-only files. NB doesn't write to the
existing files when project is creating. It creates nbproject directory and a
few files in it. This directory cannot be created under read-only directory,
user is warn about it.
You reported it aginst NB 5.0. Could you try to reproduce it with NB 5.5 dev
build, please? I'm not able to reproduce it.

Please try this on latest NB build and reopen if you still have this problem. Thx, David.
