Description L Martinek 2005-06-09 14:10:40 UTC 
In my automated tests I execute IDE with argument -J-Dcom.sun.aas.installRoot to
set path to appserver installation directory. Sometimes it doesn't work
correctly. Appserver node in runtime is named "localhost:4848" instead of "Sun
Java System Application Server 8.1" and several exceptions are in log. File
Config/J2EE/InstalledServers/.nbattrs has not all neccessary information.

Comment 3 Jan Horvath 2005-06-13 12:43:02 UTC 
On Solaris and MacOSX it doesn't work at all. When I run IDE with this argument, no appserver node is 
added, so there isn't possible to run automated tests. 
Is there any workaround?
Comment 4 _ ludo 2005-06-14 16:40:21 UTC 
seems more a regression in the xml support of netbeans itself...
Nothing changed in the plugin since FCS, and look at the root cause of the
exception, as well as the other exceptions...

You can try a workaround by adding a symbolic link of the app server dir under
the netbeans/SunAppServer8.1  instead of the env variable, but again, the issue
is elsewhere...
Please, talk to some xml guys in NetBeans
Comment 5 Petr Jiricka 2005-08-02 18:12:45 UTC 
The exception comes from org.openide.xml, reassigning.

Jesse, Yarda, any ideas?
Comment 7 Jesse Glick 2005-09-06 19:23:16 UTC 
I haven't any idea why what you did triggered this, but the JDK code in
FactoryFinder.newInstance is wrong;

  cl = FactoryFinder.class.getClassLoader();

is meaningless since this will always set cl to null (if run as part of the JDK
rt.jar). So file a JDK bug for that, then also patch the JDK source to be
correct and continue with diagnosis.
Comment 8 Vince Kraemer 2005-09-16 17:47:29 UTC 
able to reproduce.
