Description davisn 2009-03-31 22:50:04 UTC 
-When select to install NB 6.7 with GlassFish servers on Vista, by default, the servers are installed under C:\Program
Files directory. As the result user will encounter problem when select to start the server
-Would it be better to install the servers under C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name> directory so at least user can
start the servers

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Install NB 6.7 trunk build (03/31/2009)
2. Select to activate JavaEE components
3. Expand Servers list node, select GlassFish V3 Prelude to start
BUG:
   Failed to start because user has no permission to write onto C:\Program Files directory

this may be a plugin issue... the plugin does the registration... and should have created a personal domain
automatically.  I will take a look.
