When running the netbeans-profiler-5_0-linux.bin installer, the console fills with segmentation faults before the GUI is opened. The same behavior happens with the NetBeans IDE 5 installer .bin file; though that is also available as a zipped archive. I have installed the bin version of the IDE, and had exceptions thrown from plugins (see this mevenIDE issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEVENIDE-443) But re-installing the IDE using the zip archive results in no exceptions. Since the profiler installer is throwing the same kinds of segmentation faults, I will not allow the installer to proceed since I might be winding up with a corrupt installation. Can this installer also be made available as an archive?

What do you mean by Platform: HP? Are you running linux on HP workstation/server? Note that only linux@PC is supported by the Profiler. Profiler archive cannot be made available - actually it wouldn't help anyway, it contains a little platform-dependent code (binaries) for supported platforms.
Hi. This is on an HP laptop (for what it's worth: HP Pavilion ZD7140US: Desktop Pentium-IV HT). Any hope for me? What is "linux@PC"? Thanks, Steev.
If you look at Platform options, there are HP, Macintosh, PC, Sun and others - this means system architecture, not computer vendor - thus switching to PC (Pentium IV). This is what I've meant by linux@PC - we support only linux on PC platform, not on PPC and others. Reassigning to installer module.
It looks like problem with 'dd' command on your OS. As installer launcher is shell script you can add set -x to beginning of installer file to get verbose log when running iinstaller launcher.
As workaround you can try to run installer with comman line option -is:extract It will extract setup.jar from installer. Then you can run command: java -jar setup.jar

Hi. Extracting the Jar seems to have worked. The only hope I have is that the extracted Jar is intact. It ran without problems; and NetBeans boots and runs the profiler seemingly without any issues, so maybe it's OK. I'll attach my console output from the following commands: set -x ./netbeans-profiler-5_0-linux.bin -is:extract java -jar setup.jar Thanks.
Created attachment 33647 [details] Output of: set -x; ./netbeans-profiler-5_0-linux.bin -is:extract; java -jar setup.jar
You can verify setup.jar is correct. It had MD5 checksum ecc06961caf5e5dd9b7e3e0cb5d446c2. To get better log you need to add set -x directly to installer file at beginning. Then it will log all commands with filed shell variables. Anyway it is the most probably problem with dd command. I cannot help to fix this. Closing as WONTFIX. Try to look for OS updates if available.
OK. For what it's worth, the Jar checksum matches. Maybe I'll try to post something for the Ubuntu people to look at. Thanks.
This does appear to be a Ubuntu issue. See: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-fr-base/+bug/42264
