Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: netbeans
Netbeans 6.7.1 in Karmic fails to complete the process of creating a
Servlet file once the Web Applications plugins are installed. Looking
at the IDE Log, one can see a ClassNotFoundException for
org.apache.log.Hierarchy. Some Google searching shows that this is part
of the liblogkit-java package. Here is the workaround that gets
NetBeans to work in Karmic:
sudo apt-get install liblogkit-java
bash$ cd .netbeans/6.7/lib
bash$ ln -s /usr/share/java/logkit.jar .
The problem should be able to be reproduced with the following steps:
(Install netbeans package from Karmic repository obviously)
Open netbeans and open Tools and Modules.
Add the modules for web applications.
Restart Netbeans.
Open netbeans and create a new web project.
Once the project is created, create a new file and choose Servlet.
You will notice that when you complete Finish, the window doesn't close, no
template is inserted in the new file, and there is a flashing error icon in the
statusbar of the main Netbeans window.
Since Sun's bundle of Netbeans doesn't exhibit this problem, I'm
assuming someone missed this dependency in testing. I don't know how to
add the liblogkit-java jar to Netbeans' default system-wide classpath,
hence my sloppy hack. But whoever is packaging Netbeans should probably
include this dependency and make whatever arrangements are necessary to
include it in the classpath.
