             Summary: Unable to update plugins using Build 416
                 Key: NETBEANS-737

             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: platform - Plugin Manager
    Affects Versions: 9.0
         Environment: Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE Dev (Build incubator-netbeans-linux-416-on-20180426)
Updates: Updates available
Java: 1.8.0_172-ea; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.172-b03
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_172-ea-b03

             Fix For: 9.0
         Attachments: Installer1.png, Installer2.png, Installer3.png

- I deleted the *dev* user directory and *dev* cache directory for NetBeans.

- I downloaded and installed Build #416 on Windows 10. 

- I selected *Help > Check for Updates*.

The installer very briefly displayed a screen stating that _"the following plugins will be updated"_...

_Docker UI [1.1.4 -> 1.1.4]_

_IDE Platform [1.34 -> 1.34]_

_Local Tasks [1.26 -> 1.26]_ 

Note that both version numbers are the same in all three cases. See the attached screen shot *installer1.png*.

- Then a second screen replaces that almost immediately, stating _Some plugins require Java Source Base to be installed_. However, the only enabled button is *Cancel*. See the attached screen shot *installer2.png*.

- After clicking *Cancel* I am immediately prompted to _Click here to make you IDE up to date_. See the attached screen shot *installer3.png*. If I click the link in the balloon then the same scenario as described above is repeated, and I cannot update anything.

- I also face the same problem if I alternative GUI navigation to  attempt to do the updates:

[1] *Help -> About*  then click the *Updates available* link.

[2]*Tools -> Plugins -> Updates -> Check for Updates*

Note that I have downloaded many other builds (most recently #398) and not encountered this problem. I have assigned this issue *Major* priority since I can't apply updates, but please downgrade if appropriate.
