[jira] [Created] (NETBEANS-1684) Message stating where to find log files is incorrect when running on Mac OSX

David Gradwell created NETBEANS-1684:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Message stating where to find log files is incorrect when running on Mac OSX
                 Key: NETBEANS-1684
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1684
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: java - Compiler
    Affects Versions: 9.0
         Environment: Mac OS X Mojave version 10.14.1;  NetBeans 9.0; Java 9
            Reporter: David Gradwell


When going "Clean & Build" I repeatedly get:

A java.lang.NullPointerException exception has occurred.
Please report this at https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues,
including a copy of your messages.log file as an attachment.
The messages.log file is located in your /Users/davidjlgradwell/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/9.0/var/log folder.

However the location given is incorrect - no Library folder in /Users/davidjlgradwell/.  I have looked in "/Library/Application Support" but that contains no "NetBeans" folder.  A search of the entire disk doesn't show a recent messages.log file.

 

This prevents me reporting the real problem properly !
