Description venkatasreekanth 2015-09-18 15:54:29 UTC
We develop applications in netbeans using spring+maven, JavaFx etc. Whenever I make a new dependency entry and update the project, the IDE becomes unresponsive. And if we try minimizing and maximizing the application, the whole screen just turns black and the app never becomes responsive again forcing us to kill it.

The same thing happens during startup. This is the worst case since I have to disable the network to bring back netbeans. It also happens when netbeans is trying to update.

The reason for this behavior is that netbeans has to communicate through a proxy. 

The only workaround is to disable network and disable network within netbeans.

Can you attach a thread dump?

Comment 4 Antonin Nebuzelsky 2015-09-23 11:38:49 UTC
The thread dump requested above will be needed to verify which code blocks Event Queue when waiting for the slow network. Can you take the thread dumps for the cases you mention above? (startup blocked, updating project blocked, ...etc)?

In general, how bad is your connection through the proxy? Is your proxy correctly configured and can it be improved?
Comment 5 venkatasreekanth 2015-09-23 21:11:08 UTC
I am working on getting the thread dump. I am a little busy with work. The connection is not bad at all. I have visual studio, eclipse, RAD and a bunch of other tools going through proxy. Only netbeans craps out this way.

Any traction on this bug? I'm experiencing the same issue with version 8.2 as well.

It has been two years. I guess there is really no interest in fixing this. I have moved to IntelliJ and Eclipse. I still have my FX project in netbeans and plan to migrate this over to IntelliJ.

message log

NetBeans locks up (again, as it does every time) on startup.  Usually, after a few attempts of deleting the lock file and trying again, I am finally prompted for the LAN password for the proxy.  This is beyond annoying as it is a work-stoppage issue, and definitely not something I would expect for a mature application.

I have the same issue, is for some reason proxy is not wokring, or is not allowing to connect NetBeans freeze after initial load.

Same here - please fix.
