I've got an AssertionError that appears when I try to startup Netbeans 5.0, so I can no longer use it. I've tried deleting cache files. here's a snippet of the message log: INFORMATIONAL *********** Exception occurred ************ at 5:06 PM on Dec 5, 2005 java.lang.AssertionError: C:\Work\Copy of netbeans-stocktrader\cluster_build_harness\diskexplorer at org.netbeans.modules.apisupport.project.NbModuleProject.createEvaluator(NbModuleProject.java:321) at org.netbeans.modules.apisupport.project.NbModuleProject.<init>(NbModuleProject.java:129) at org.netbeans.modules.apisupport.project.NbModuleProjectType.createProject(NbModuleProjectType.java:41) at org.netbeans.modules.project.ant.AntBasedProjectFactorySingleton.loadProject(AntBasedProjectFactorySingleton.java:174) at org.netbeans.api.project.ProjectManager.createProject(ProjectManager.java:319) at org.netbeans.api.project.ProjectManager.access$700(ProjectManager.java:44) [catch] at org.netbeans.api.project.ProjectManager$2.run(ProjectManager.java:233) at org.openide.util.Mutex.readAccess(Mutex.java:234) at org.netbeans.api.project.ProjectManager.findProject(ProjectManager.java:180) at org.netbeans.modules.projectapi.SimpleFileOwnerQueryImplementation.getOwner(SimpleFileOwnerQueryImplementation.java:68) at org.netbeans.api.project.FileOwnerQuery.getOwner(FileOwnerQuery.java:68) at org.netbeans.modules.editor.bookmarks.PersistentBookmarks.findOwningBookmarksMap(PersistentBookmarks.java:142) at org.netbeans.modules.editor.bookmarks.PersistentBookmarks.loadBookmarks(PersistentBookmarks.java:54) at org.netbeans.modules.editor.bookmarks.NbBookmarkManager.init(NbBookmarkManager.java:55) at org.netbeans.lib.editor.bookmarks.api.BookmarkList.<init>(BookmarkList.java:91) at org.netbeans.lib.editor.bookmarks.api.BookmarkList.get(BookmarkList.java:48)

I moved the whole .netbeans directory aside, and I'm back in now.

Thanks for report. Fixed in the latest build. You should receive better message suggesting you what's wrong. But probably you are trying to open NB_CVS module (which is not external module, suite, suite-component) outside of NB_CVS tree which is wrong. Also <4.1 modules are unsupported. You need to migrate them to 5.0 (see $NB_DIR/harness/README). So probably more or less duplicate of 69097. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 69097 ***
Many thanks, I had been trying to look at the StockTrader tutorial (which uses NB4.1, I think), to see if I could convert it to NB5 (is there a conversion feature planned to import projects from older versions of NB - this will be vital to encourage people to migrate)
Would be nice, true. Currently there is at least the detailed section in the harness/README which guides you step by step through the process, called "UPGRADING FROM NETBEANS 4.0/4.1". Seems long, but really not too hard task ;) If you have any problem feel free to ask on the mailing list.
yes. verified duplicate.
