Description Ondrej Langr 2007-10-10 12:14:04 UTC

During usability study where netbeans 6.0 Beta 1 was installed and uninstalled several times in a row, we experienced a
problem with the installer (see attached screenshots and log file). Afterwards, the ide was usually (not always) able to
start, but behaved weirdly and was extremely slow.

The procedure used for uninstalling netbeans between the sessions was following:
1) we uninstalled both netbeans and glassfish
2) we removed userdir and all other netbeans directories starting with "."
3) we removed leftovers (NetBeans directory and Glassfish directory) in Program Files directory (this was necessary just
once or twice out of 10 sessions)

Was there any other step we missed? Or did we just experience a bug?

I see the following error in the log:

It says that most probable the installer file is corrupted.
The other possible issue is JDK6 1.6.0-beta2-b86 - it is not the FCS version.

So, please, uninstall beta JDK, install the latest JDK 6 Update3 and download the installer again.
If the issue is still reproducible please reopen the issue and put the MD5 and the name of the installer you have used.
