Netbeans is being used by some of my lucky Linux using co-workers. It will not start on my windows NT platform. I've tried starting it with each of the downloads, from the start menu, bash and nt shell. The following is a paste of what I get each time: -- System info ---------------------------------------------------------------- Product Version = NetBeans IDE 3.2 (Build 39) IDE Versioning = IDE/1 spec=1.2.1 impl=39 Operating System = Windows NT version 4.0 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.3.0; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.3.0-C; Sun Microsystems Inc.

Seems to me like duplicate of another issues (i.e. 11020) related to the different/old xml parsers on the classpath. So, please check the {jdkhome}/jre/lib and remove the conflicting xml parser from there or replace it by the xerces.jar from {nbhome}/lib/ext. Hope, this helps, if not, then please reopen this issue, thanks. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 11020 ***
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified.
