[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-502) nb-javac Does Not Install

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-502?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16415072#comment-16415072 ] 

will mason commented on NETBEANS-502:
-------------------------------------

I have been running Netbeans 9 with java 8 since this bug was entered.  Today, after a day or so of use I was again prompted for {{nb-javac library}} and this time it loaded (seemingly).

I am unsure how/IF  I  can check on what modules are present in Netbeans after start-up.

So I gave Netbeans 9  a run with JDK 10.0 after that and didn't get a message (yet) about the nb-javac.  

Mysteriously though, the About box reports Netbeans at level {{8.2 patch 2}}, as shown below.

> h3. expectation
> _expectation_ #1
> * Click "Install nb-javac" module 
> * nb-javac module is installed
> * restart netbeans
> * nb-javac module functions correctly
> * I get on with my work.
> Failing that ...
> * I expect to see a URL where I can download nb-javac
> * Expect a install sheet on web or in the readme or help area
> * A clear process on how to  install something like nb-javac, since I gather it is not a plugin.
>    *  I checked available plugins no {{nb-javac}} was seen.
> _expectation _#2
> *  Whe/If module load or other actions is blocked by something like  the absent Kenai link for CoolEditorActions 
> * I'd like a pop-up or error message defining the problem.
> * I prefer it it then allows me to skip that problem and continue
> * I want something in the log to say: Loading nb-javac and nb-javac loaded/failed because 
> * I'd like some kind of message saying were to go
> h3. problem(s)
> # n-javac can not be loaded 
> # module load fails on missing plugin location -- No message or chance to skip.
> When I started NetBeans the first time – There is a _very small_ message to load  "nb-javac" with the instruction "click me".  There is NO information about that action,  a URL or Plutin name, etc.
> * see: [NETBEANS-244 -- *nb-javac notification under JDK9 is very easy to overlook*|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-244]
> I clicked this action.  The download failed with this message:
>       {color:#205081}*Resolve "nb-javac library" Reference Problem*
>       Check your proxy settings or try again later. The server may be 
>      unavailable at the moment. You may also want to make sure that your 
>      firewall is not blocking network traffic.{color}
>  
> The network access is just fine.  I was able to install some essential plugins, etc. and login to JIRA.
> I then ran Netbeans from the console but there were No Messages relating to this procedure.  There was an error on the CoolEditorActions plugin.  I removed that reference and all I saw the same{{Resolve "nb-javac library" Reference Problem}}  dialogue.
> In the Netbeans .IDE log there is only this relating to the problem: {code:java}
> INFO [null]: Last record repeated 2 more times.
> {code}
> Which makes little sense in context of the action.
> I looked on the windows console and this time saw {{Unpaired license 00000008 without any module}} as below: {code:java}
> INFO [org.netbeans.modules.autoupdate.updateprovider.AutoupdateCatalogParser]: Unpaired license 00000008 without any module.
> INFO [org.netbeans.modules.autoupdate.updateprovider.AutoupdateCatalogParser]: Unpaired license 00000008 without any module.
> {code}
> So there's something wrong with the download, before it event attempts to install the module.
> *Other problem*
> The auto-download needs to pop-up or at least say why/how/where it stopped.
> This CoolEditorActions has become an orphan since Kenai has gone out of business.  A great pity really.  Anyway there will probably be more of this as the platform transitions to Apache.  It would be better to handle that more gracefully.
