Description bryancostanich 2008-05-15 01:13:44 UTC 
repro:
 install netbeans 6.1
 install the XUI plugins (found at xui.sourceforge.net)
 close netbeans
 re-open netbeans

i get the error: "An incompatible Xalan version has been detected on the IDE's classpath. The IDE cannot start. Please
see http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/FaqXalanOnCP for more information."

so i opened up the processLauncher.xml and got rid of the xalan.jar in the classpath and i still have the same issue. i
even did a search for xalan on my machine, the only reference i could find to it was ant-xalan.jar, so i trashed that
file, still no good.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2008-05-15 02:10:40 UTC 
com-xoetrope-editor.jar contains an embedded copy of Xalan (among dozens of assorted libraries, it seems). Please report
a bug for the developers of this module.
