Netbeans crashes with Karmic

[Wajih Letaief]

Binary package hint: netbeans

After a frsh install of the Karmic Alpha 1, i installed NetBeans and installed the plugins. For a complete test, i installed all the plugins except the JavaFX one.

after the restart of the IDE, NetBeans always crashes and don't start.

Either before the install of the plugins and the update NetBeans was too long to load.

What is Karmic? What crash do you see? Is it JVM crach with hs*.log and core dump? Or something else (exception on console?)

[Wajih Letaief (mawale)]

Karmic Koala is Ubuntu 9.10 (it's still an alpha 1 version)

The crash occures without any output : the IDE just crashes.

[Marek Slama (mslama-email)]

I see. Please run IDE from console. /usr/bin/netbeans or just netbeans. If it dev version it will log output to console. If it is release add -J-Dnetbeans.logger.console=true as command line parameter. Or you can attach messages.log from user dir. (It is located by default in $HOME/.netbeans/<version>/var/log) You can use --jdkhome <Path to JDK> to select JDK and/or --userdir <Path to userdir> eg. --userdir $HOME/nbtest.

Do you use package netbeans6.5?

[Wajih Letaief (mawale)]

Yes i'm using the package NetBeans 6.5

[Marek Slama (mslama-email)]

It is openjdk crash. You can try sun-java. (Use command line option --jdkhome <Path to JDK>)

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

please recheck with the netbeans package in karmic/9.10.

[Wajih Letaief (mawale)]

actually i'm using NetBeans with Java 6 and it crashes no longer

i'll try it on a virtual machine with openJDK

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

openjdk-6 was updated in karmic. please recheck.
