This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When NetBeans 7.1.1 is installed from Java EE installer and then all other clusters are installed, it happens that it is possible to add already registered GlassFish instance but at the end the new instance doesn't appear. Only a message WARNING [org.netbeans.modules.server.ui.wizard.AddServerInstanceWizard]: Some localized warning appears in IDE log. Please, provide valid warning message in server\src\org\netbeans\modules\server\ui\wizard\AddServerInstanceWizard.java. I can't reproduce described behaviour in NB7.1.1 installed from zip.
I fixed the message in web-main 7e817127f7dc. Perhaps GF should evaluate the cause (I would guess it is returning set containing null value). Reporter, is the cause filed separately?
It happened just once, so I don't have exact steps how to reproduce. Next time it happens, I will file a bug with proper error message.
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201204050400* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/7e817127f7dc User: Petr Hejl <phejl@netbeans.org> Log: #208644 Missing valid warning message
I'm closing this now. Petr already fixed missing message. I added plan to fix automatic registration code to generate unique instance names based on real GlassFish version. Actual code can't do that properly.
