Created attachment 159411 [details] messages.log from my attempts to create a project I assume this to be a bug in the Cordova Plugin, but couldn't find a better place to file the bug report. java.lang.NullPointerException at org.netbeans.modules.cordova.CordovaPerformer.createScript(CordovaPerformer.java:465) at org.netbeans.modules.cordova.wizard.CordovaSampleIterator.instantiate(CordovaSampleIterator.java:203) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard$InstantiatingIteratorBridge.instantiate(TemplateWizard.java:1051) (full stack trace in messages.log, see attachment) After installing NetBeans 8.1 from the debian archives, installing the Cordova Plugin and trying to create a new Project ('Cordova Maps Sample'), a new folder is created for the project. Then the creation wizard says: "Project folder already exists and is not empty." When I try to create a 'Cordova Application' Project, the save dialog first states that: 'The target filesystem or folder does not exist' after selecting any file in the Dialog the error changes to: 'The file /path/to/project already exists.' This message gets update for each folder I select, but does not change if I change the name in the Filename input or the project name. Creating other projects works as expected (I've tried 'Java Application', 'Client Editor' Example and 'Maven Project'. The creation dialog seems to correctly detect already existing projectfolders and increments a number at the end of the Project name automatically, so I can be 100% certain that the target folder did not exist prior to creation of the project. I tried removing my .netbeans folder from my home dir. After that I reinstalled the Cordova Plugin and the problem appeared. Running updates or restarting the IDE did not change the behavior. messages.log is attached.
