I have successfully downloaded and installed NetBeans 6.5.1, updated the plugins and was able to use it. I also have installed F9's Eclipse and also installed Eclipse directly from the org's website. I have tested all three, using F9's default galternatives setup. Great so far. Later, I downloaded and installed JDK 1.6 update 13, manually added this JDK via galternatives and checked combinations of OpenJDK, GCJ, and JDK 1.6u13 to ensure that configuration worked properly, by: 1) Manually running java -version 2) Manually running javac -version 3) Starting Eclipse IDE (both versions) & compiling/running a java app 4) Starting NetBeans IDE and compiling/running a java app Everything seems to work fine, except: + NB fails to start only when the following galternatives is set: javac: JDK 1.6u13 When NB fails to start, I cannot locate the log-file as to why NB fails to start, so if anyone knows where to look, can you please let me know or if it is known why this fails, perhaps share your findings? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
