Description Michael Nazarov 2010-06-11 13:45:55 UTC 
During installation on MacOSX customization dialog provides some details
about components. With fcs builds it says "install" for all components
except GlassFish which has "upgrade" mark like it already installed even
whole installation was removed before.
Comment 1 Yulia Novozhilova 2010-06-15 09:47:17 UTC 
It looks like previous installation of glassfish was interrupted and some installer information(glassfish-v3*.plist and glassfish-v3*.bom files) is left in /private/var/db/receipts/ folder.
Please, remove this info and try to install again. I'll will also check.
Comment 2 Michael Nazarov 2010-06-15 11:23:27 UTC 
There is no /private/var/db/receipts/ on test machine.
But there is /Library/Receipts/ and looks like cleaning of this directory helps.
Comment 3 Yulia Novozhilova 2010-06-16 13:23:06 UTC 
Well, I've spent more time looking at the issue and realized it is expected behavior for Snow Leopard (10.6.*). The native installer for Snow Leopard was improved so now we can't delete receipt information in pre/postflight scripts. 

At the same time this issue shouldn't be reproducible on Leopard (10.5.*).   Michael, could you please check installer on Leopard and if everything is ok, close the issue.
Comment 4 Michael Nazarov 2010-06-16 13:56:50 UTC 
It's reproducible on 10.5.6 with NB 6.9 installer.
Comment 5 Yulia Novozhilova 2010-06-16 16:10:03 UTC 
Fixed in trunk: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/314935586082

Another side effect of this bug is that Glassfish is not available in servers.
workaround: add server manually
