Hello, I have issue with NB suddenly stopped seeing external changes to files. I am using this feature since NB 6/7 (or so) and it has been working well all the time.
Suddenly, it stopped working. I have suspicion that it is related to updating the JDK recently. I am using the feature together with remote-upload feature of project, but it does not work even without remote upload. Before, when I created a file or folder in Finder, NetBeans automatically refreshed and showed the changes in the Project/Files tree. Now I have to run the "Scan for external changes" menu command all the time, which completely wastes my workflow, because I use external watchers (webpack or gulp) to build the project and then rely on NetBeans to upload the changes to remote server. I have tried almost everything, googled whole day but found no solution, nothing helped: creating another, clean project reinstalling NB, updating from version 14 to 15 uninstalling and reinstalling JRE uninstalling and reinstalling JDK checking permissions enabling Security>Accessibilty and Security>Full-disk access to NetBeans and java processes re-enabling "Miscellaneous > Files > Enable auto-scanning of sources" option in Options restarting NB restarting Mac .. everything above in different order, several times :( My configuration: ================ - JDK version installed: jdk-18.0.2.1.jdk - JRE version: build 1.8.0_341-b10 - OS: Mac OS 12.5.1 Monterey, Intel x64 Any idea, anyone? Thanks for help, Best, -- Ludvík Michálek
