The project builds successfully, but it fails with ‘Error: Could not create Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred’. I can run the project from a script file, so it works if everything is set up correctly. Can someone provide a pointer to how Netbeans’ Run -> Run Main Project starts the project? How can I determine what exception is being thrown? thanks
