On NB 10 and also 11.1. I get this popup error when attempting to rename a Java class or move it to a new package. It tells me to look in var/logs for any error message but I’m not seeing any Java or NB related logs. OSX Mohave does not seem to have a /var/log/messages at all on my system.
If I let the move proceed, I see some changes in some files, usually outside the package or module that refers to these name changes, but the immediate package/module doesn’t make changes. Mark Koch
