>                 Key: NETBEANS-5539
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5539
>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 12.3
>         Environment: *Product Version:* Apache NetBeans IDE 12.3
> *Java:* 11.0.10; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.10+9-Ubuntu-0ubuntu1.20.04
> *Runtime:* OpenJDK Runtime Environment 11.0.10+9-Ubuntu-0ubuntu1.20.04
> *System:* Linux version 5.4.0-70-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; de_DE (nb)
>            Reporter: Torsten Römer
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: nb-javac
>         Attachments: VaultTranscriberTest.png, netbeans-test.tar.gz

> *What I did:*
>  # Clean install of NetBeans 12.3
>  # Installed nb-javac as recommended, restarted NetBeans
>  # Cloned [https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak.git] (13.0.0-SNAPSHOT) from within NetBeans
>  # Opened the parent project
>  # Did "Clean and Build" of the whole project (success)
>  # Expanded "Modules", all looks fine
>  # Opened module "Keycloak REST Services": "Background scanning of projects..." takes a long time and there are constantly occurring "Unexpected Exception" (some NPE but it is impossible to select one because they are being replaced by a new occurrence all the time)
>  # Opened the attached project "netbeans-test"
> *Expected behaviour:*
>  * All projects open without error
> *Observed behaviour:*
>  * When opening the module "Keycloak REST Services" is complete, there are several "cannot find symbol" errors for types that are actually present, for example DefaultVaultTranscriber in VaultTranscriberTest (see screenshot)
>  * In the project "netbeans-test", in NetBeansTest.java, the import org.keycloak.crypto.ES256SignatureProviderFactory as well has "cannot find symbol" and content-assist for the package org.keycloak.crypto only shows a subset of the types that actually are in the package
> *Workaround:*
> Disabling "Compile on Save", deleting the cache in ~/.cache/netbeans, rebuilding the project, restarting NetBeans etc. does not solve the issue.
> "Uninstalling" nb-javac by deleting ~/.netbeans/12.3/modules and restarting NetBeans solves the problem, but then of course "Compile on Save" with all its advantages is not available any more.
> Then nb-javac can be installed and "Compile on Save" enabled again - no errors show up (but might occur again later?)
> *Additional information:*
> In NetBeans 12.4 Beta 1 "Compile on Save" can be enabled *without installing nb-javac*, and when running a test or debugging, the following message shows up:
> {{Running NetBeans Compile On Save execution. Phase execution is skipped and output directories of dependency projects (with Compile on Save turned on) will be used instead of their jar artifacts.}}
> And it works just fine - "Compile on Save" is available without nb-javac in 12.4 Beta 1?
