    1. I have installed Netbeans 7.1RC2. It works, except with Maven. You cannot create Maven-Projects and existing Maven-Projects cannot be processed as usual. – After having lost to much time with fedora16 and Netbeans I have to change to the detested Windows 7 because there its all working fine.

    3. Dumelang,

      I have just successful installed and tested a Zend project in ¨/var/www/html/test-project¨. Then I created a new Zend PHP project in ¨/home/Quet/NetBeansProjects/PhpProject1¨, but it doesńt run. When I and try and run the project, i get The requested URL /PhpProject1/ was not found on this server on ¨http://localhost/PhpProject1/¨

      So, I tried to create a new project, but this time in ¨/var/www/html/PhpProject1¨, BUT netbeans 7.1 tells me ¨Sources folder is not writable¨. So I then proceed to ¨[[email protected] www]# chmod -R 0775 ./html/¨.

      I am clearly clueless, so please advice me on how to properly set-up my Netbeans, PHP and Zend environment to get up and going.

      thanks

    4. I need to run Netbeans as “root” in F16 because I can’t write to /var/www/html where my projects reside. I know about besuu command which is a GUI for su but didn’t know how to change the Netbeans path at Activities launcher, any help?

      • Hi ReynierPm,

        Maybe you should change your project directory permissions or whole project directory location?

    5. The directory is at /var/www/html/cmv and is owned by apache:reynierpm with 777 permissions and still can’t write nothing there

      • Could you post output of following commands:

        
        ls -la /var/www/html/cmv
        
        ls -la /var/www/html
        
        ls -la /var

    6. Just wanted to say you post awesome guides. Keep up the good work. I may have a question or two, if I run into anything.

    7. Quick question: Can’t I use netbeans with just IcedTea, and how much of a difference would it really make in speed?

      $ java -version
      java version “1.6.0_24”
      OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.3) (rhel-1.48.1.11.3.el6_2-x86_64)
      OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

      • Hi RW,

        And thank you for compliments. Very nice to hear that you like my guides. :)

        NetBeans should work with IcedTea. It’s almost impossible say is there any speed difference.

        • Netbeans installation is not working with openjdk. No compatibleJdk found error.

          java version “1.7.0_09-icedtea”
          OpenJDK Runtime Environment (fedora-2.3.5.3.fc17-x86_64)
          OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.2-b09, mixed mode)

          • Thanks Dinesh,

            I removed OpenJDK part from guide too.

    8. Hi JR, thanks for the quick response. I guess I am going to have to get Sun’s Java, which is ok, since I have to work on an enterprise app anyway using this. It apparently does not recognize the version of Ice Tea that I have. I am on CentOS 6.3. I am using your Get Java guide that you linked earlier, within this guide.

      • I actually just checked NetBeans 7.2 system requirements and looks like Java JDK 6 Update 26 or later is required to install the NetBeans IDE. So that’s why OpenJDK 1.6.0_24 won’t work.

        But yes you could install newer Sun/Oracle Java 7 or install newer OpenJDK. Maybe Java 7 is good choice… :)

      • Hi C,

        If you installed it under /opt, then run following as root:

        
        /opt/netbeans-7.4/uninstall.sh
        

        If somewhere else, then run:

        
        /your/install/path/netbeans-7.4/uninstall.sh

    11. Hi!

      I installed netbeans 7.4 but my php version is 5.5.7. But to create a new project i only have de php 5.4 option?

      I want to install zend framework 2 (which is said supports 5.4).

      This will cause me some troubles?

      Should i roll back my server to php 5.4?

      Thanks
