A message from NetBeans "Browser refused to debug this tab, Close
Chrome developer tools(or any other browser debugger") and try again"
Hi,
When an HTML5 application is run in NetBeans the message "Browser
refused to debug this tab, Close Chrome developer tools(or any other
browser debugger") and try again" is given by NetBeans, Why? no developer
tools are open, nor any other browser debugger.

Congrats with this app, eager to see at least screenshots. Indeed, bundling
a JRE would make sense.

JavaFX deployment library not found in active JDK
Posted by Chris Olsen <co...@mchsi.com>.
Hello, Everyone --
"Trigger" warning -- I am not a developer, just an amateur programmer with a large FX project.
I am not sure what information would be helpful, but here is my story:
I am running with two PCs, Windows 7 and 10, and have arrived at the same problem. I have installed (I believe successfully) AdoptOpenJDK 11.0.2 and Apache Netbeans 11.1 and javafx. I am getting no compile errors (i.e. the javafx library seems to be found successfully.) However, I am getting the output below. I am not sure which of it is relevant, so I copied all of it. I am not Ant-proficient at all, so I have fewer clues than one what the jfx-impl.xml lines are trying to tell me. I was not able to discern from StackOverflow what to do about "JavaFX deployment library not found in active JDK." It was claimed I might still be able to run the program from the command line, but since my Unix/Linux/DOS looms small in my rear view mirrow, I want Apache Netbeans to do all this for me.
Might someone unravel what the problem might be, and where I might go to seek a solution?
Thank you in advance!

In this case wouldn't there be a need for a netbeans GUI based option to
bundle a JDK/JRE for each OS installer by default without manual
modifying the build.xml and so on.

The times have changed. Users mainly compute via their mobile gadget or via
a web browser.
Due to increased security requirements side-installing an app on the actual
desktop OS is much more demanding. The are appstores which have even more
rules (and associated fees).
In a way most desktop apps are automatically into the "workstation"
territory. Not hobby market.
Java is no longer expected to be available but has to come bundled with the
native installer.

The FSF explanation is clear as mud...
Policing where your users are from and what the up to date embargo list is
is extra work so why not pick an OpenJDK distro that does not make you do

Still, if it bothers you, or for lots of other reasons, there's always
AdoptOpenJDK.
(semi-OT - I'm currently enjoying running NetBeans with AdoptOpenJDK's
OpenJ9 and have been for the last few months)

Note that Azul Zulu has some specific terms of use which are not good if
you allow random people to download it:
> You also represent and warrant that you do not intend to distribute the
software in a manner that is not compliant with relevant export control
laws or regulations administered by the U.S. Commerce Department, OFAC, or
any other government agency.
If you sell the app and KYC it might be manageable.

I agree with these recommendations:
1) Definitively bundle your own JRE. You can't assume people have Java installed anymore, and it's very nice to be able to test your app on exactly the Java version you know your users will be running on.
2) For legal reasons, definitively do not use the Oracle one--use one of the OpenJDK ones. I use https://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu-community . For all practical purposes, it's the exact same piece of software as the Oracle one--just with a different license agreement.

Thanks all for your feedback.
I checked the new Oracle license : I understood that I can use JRE on my own computer, but I can NOT bundle it and redistribute it.
So I have the following choices:
1/ bundle a JRE and it must be OpenJDK
or
2/ have the installer check if a JRE is there, and if not, ask user to install a JRE on its own (then he can choose Oracle or whatever). I assume that after JRE installation my Netbeans app will automatically find this JRE ?
InnoSetup is probably be a good idea: I guess it's more powerful and flexible than Netbeans installers, but I'm concerned by the time needed to learn yet another topic... Does InnoSetup simplifies the "installer signing" ?

Are you using Ant or Maven? PraxisLIVE has an Ant target to build an
installer with InnoSetup and a bundled JDK. Personally I'd l recommend that
approach over NetBeans installer if bundling.
Eg. https://github.com/praxis-live/praxis-live/blob/master/build.xml#L70
Interested in seeing your application!

Neil

Well, you could have installation instructions initially explaining how and
where to get the JRE from and where to reference it in the conf file of the
app for your initial release.
