You have a corrupted installation. Your messages.log file is full of java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file
As a result there is a bunch of ClassNotFoundExceptions.
Won't fix, since your build is unusable anyway.
Comment 3 gholmer 2011-01-28 12:50:19 UTC 
I realized the problem later. What happened is that I installed a ZIP build from Hudson (http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/nbms-and-javadoc/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/nbbuild/dist/) and then went to Tools/Plugins and removed C/C++ and PHP modules. I realize that this is an uncommon use case, but should it have caused this many problems?
