fixbugbroken opened a new issue, #8127:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/8127
### Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 24
### What happened
Running on macOS:
If the Netbeans application bundle is moved to a new directory after it has
already been launched at least once then the IDE will start reporting errors in
the notifications window.
The log file shows that netbeans is attempting to load files from the prior
directory location.
### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component
_No response_
### How to reproduce
1) Install netbeans
2) Launch netbeans
3) Close netbeans
4) Move netbeans application bundle to another directory
5) Launch netbeans
Netbeans will launch at step 5. However it will report that it has detected
an error. The log files show that it cannot find netbean jar files located in
the original install location.
### Did this work correctly in an earlier version?
No / Don't know
### Operating System
macOS 15.2 (24C101)
### JDK
openjdk version "22.0.2"
### Apache NetBeans packaging
Apache NetBeans provided installer
### Anything else
The issue seems to be cached configuration information that continues to
point to the old install location found in the file:
{$USER}/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/24/build.properties
If the folder containing the build.properties file is removed (eg .../24)
then netbeans no longer reports any errors after it is re-launched and rebuilds
the cache.
