Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.4 (Build 201310111528) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_45 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.45-b08 My Project Properties > Run Configuration > Run As is set for Remote Web Site (FTP, SFTP). When I select Run > Run Project, there are 2 problems with the File Upload process that takes place before the actual run. 1) Files that were changed inside a folder are not automatically selected. So I have to manually check the box for the folder to include source files that may have changed inside that folder. 2) When I check the box for a folder (to include the files that were changed inside that folder as mentioned above), ALL files following the changed files alphabetically are also checked. So I either need to upload a large number of files that weren't actually changed, or I need to manually uncheck the files that follow the changed file alphabetically in the listing. Again, the scenario is for files within folders off the root. It would be very nice if the files that were changed in folders could be automatically selected and uploaded automatically. That is definitely not happening, and I instead need to do a large amount of manual selection.
The preferred way is to use remote synchronization (it works on directories from NB 8.0). But there is a way how to "return" this old behaviour but use it on your own risk - see issue #237253, comment 27. Thanks for reporting. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 237253 ***
