Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 Beta 2 (Build 201211062253) Operating System = Linux version 2.6.43.8-1.fc15.i686 running on i386 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_25 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 20.0-b11 A fresh NB 7.3 Beta 2 install After the install (which was fine) the IDE was started (by me). After a while a popup appears asking for username and password. No clue whatfor this popup is. The tomcat admin account and it's password seem to work. However....I'm not sure what the popup was about.
Created attachment 128480 [details] Snapshot/screenshot of the problem Just a picture to hopefully be more clear.
I have no idea ... could you generate thread dump when the dialog appears, attach it here and reopen ? Thanks in advance. http://wiki.netbeans.org/GenerateThreadDump
Created attachment 128484 [details] Output of jstack As per your request: a threaddump. (created with jstack) As I look into the threaddump I would think that it's a/the glassfish admin username/pwd netbeans is asking for. If the above assumption is right then it would however be nice if that's indicated in the popup.
hmmm...forgot to reopen after I attached the threaddump. Btw...I found out that NB is asking for tomcat username/password and glassfish username/password. Both popups don't show any information.
I know about popups in GlassFish plugin. We aready did some work to remove them but it was not completed yet. I would like to keep it as it is in 7.3 because there is not enough time to rewrite significant part of the plugin. I already started doing this for next release which won't have popups asking for user and password any more. Popups are shown by java.net.Authenticator which was used to authenticate internal HTTP(S) admin request in GlassFish plugin. New code in GF Tooling SDK library allows to pass username and password stored from GF registration wizard.
this should already by fixed in http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/latest/ where 100% of admin interface calls are switched to GlassFish Tooling Library. But this fix won't be part of 7.3.1 release.
