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.
Some feel this should be a FFJ40 showstopper so please consider this bug serious. I believe the P-team and JesseG will need to determine that. I don't log bugs in issuezilla often so I'm going to commit and then attempt to add supporting documentation. For some reason the following gave 'not valid addresses' in the cc line above. They should be on the list George.Hernandez@sun.com,mark.dey@sun.com, Jesse.Grodnik@sun.com RC2 build from 5/10 with all modules installed (EE, IFDEF) and no valid path set for the FCC Home for the developer tools. Exceptions are logged silently to the ide.log file which grows in size. No exceptions are logged (except the two from IDE startup) if the IFDEF module is not installed. These exceptions are logged from simple actions like mounting a filesystem and using the popup to create a java package. Sometimes just moving the cursor around in the popup and expanding the various menus will cause the errors. Other times they are caused by creating and deleting beans. Email has been going around on this problem so this description should be enough. I will attach logs and emails. I will just include the last email here from: George.Hernandez@Sun.COM The bug should be filed against the j2eeserver module. The file, org-netbeans-modules-j2ee-server-above-regular.txt, is in the following jar: <ide>/modules/autoload/j2eeserver.jar The ide is looking for it in <ide>/modules/autoload/locale/j2eeserver_f4j.jar and it is not there, as Tor said.

Trying to get Clare out of the loop here. Can folks in Prague investigate to determine whether this is a showstopper. I would say no, but I have heard the volume of error messages in the log is high, so I'm not sure. Feel free to downgrade this bug based on your evaluation. Thanks,Steve
Ok, there's a lot of talk about various exceptions being logged. Where are they? Where is the ide.log file? Please attach it. Also note that only netbeans.org aliases can be used in the cc interest list. That is why, sun.com aliases have been rejected with 'not valid addresses'.
Yes, I can reproduce this issue on [orion EE](020517-rc4). Attachment contains exception from log file.
Created attachment 5851 [details] Exception from log file
Created attachment 5853 [details] both exceptions
Definitely url must be valid. So, if you define url that addresses resource in another module then the url can contain nbresloc protocol. e.g.: url="org-netbeans-modules-j2ee-server-above-regular.txt" could be defined as: url="nbresloc:/org/netbeans/modules/j2ee/server/above/regular.txt"
For sure, this bug is very annoying, as the log file is cluttered, and outputting large log file may also performance implications, but I thing the decision whether this is a showstopper for FFJ 4 or not should be determined by the EE or IFDEF team. The fix is trivial and not risky, so if there are other issues considered for RC5, I think this should be fixed.
The fix needs to be done in the branded (closed source) part of the j2eeserver module, assigning to George.
This is an issue with the closed source branding, which adds the help system. This should be logged in bugtraq not in issuezilla. I've got a fix to layer_f4j.xml, but there are so many other exceptions thrown to ide.log not affiliated with this bug that its hard to see if the fix works. I no longer see j2eeserver in the log files. I'll integrate into the closed source trunk and others can verify from there.
[orion](020521-rc5) It seems like it's fixed now. I would like to verify this one but this isn't marked as Fixed and I don't know number of appropriate issue in bugtraq. Could somebody mark this one as Fixed or as Invalid with appropriate issue number from bugtraq ?! Thanks in advance.
INF 7449, never went to bugtraq unfortunately...
verified in [orion](020521-rc5) thanks
