Found some more information and a way to solve the problem. I had the same problem with OpenJDk 13, 14 and 15 too on Mac Big Sur (OSx 11). I did not see the behaviour on Catalina (OSx 10). I did not debug further as to why Big Sur was causing problems. My setup and configuration - NetBeans 12.3 Zip bundle OpenJDk tar ball Launch netbeans using java_home parameter pointing to extracted Java 11 Openjdk Cannot run maven NetBeans Module.
*Solution*: INstalled Java 11 via HomeBrew ran this command post install as recommended by brew *sudo ln -sfn $(brew --prefix)/opt/openjdk@11/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk* I believe one can symlink the extracted openjdk as well to solve. I did not try that. Now able to run a Maven NetBeans module. The other problem still exists - Cannot open Java Platform Shell from within NetBeans 12.3 *Cheers* Mani/Naren/Iyer *The trick of walking on water is knowing where the stones are.* On Fri, Jul 2, 2021 at 8:18 PM Geertjan Wielenga < geertjan.wiele...@googlemail.com> wrote: > Tried and failed to reproduce with this environment: > > *Product Version:* Apache NetBeans IDE 12.4 > > *Java:* 16.0.1; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 16.0.1+9 > > *Runtime:* OpenJDK Runtime Environment 16.0.1+9 > > *System:* Mac OS X version 10.15.7 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_GB (nb) > > *User directory:* /Users/geertjanwielenga/Library/Application > Support/NetBeans/12.4 > > *Cache directory:* /Users/geertjanwielenga/Library/Caches/NetBeans/12.4 > > > I checked the settings.xml file in the NetBeans module project to make > sure that netbeans.installation points to an actually existing NetBeans > installation. > > > Gj > > On Fri, Jul 2, 2021 at 4:43 PM Charles Johnson <cehjohn...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> On 02/07/2021 07:04, manikantanna...@gmail.com wrote: >> > The steps were to show how to reproduce the problem. >> >> It might be better to post the minimal build files to reproduce it, e.g. >> a pom.xml and possibly some Java source >> >> >>
