Description Alexei Mokeev 2007-11-03 19:26:24 UTC
There are some problems in Profiler when there are spaces in paths. Actually according to 
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=103046 it is applicable to any Unix system.
Please evaluate advantages and disadvantages of removing spaces from default path.
See http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=103046 for more details.

Vanya, please take a look.
Comment 2 Alexei Mokeev 2007-11-05 09:34:35 UTC
IMO it is risky to change PATHs now since it may potentially impact any area, dealing with Tomcat. Adding Trung to CC
for the final decision.

Due to the fact that 103046 is fixed, no other issues has been known when installing NetBeans in path with spaces and 
having I close the issue as invalid now.

We also have Issue 119877 and all possible changes in installaion directories on MacOS can be discussed there.
