Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

Hi all,
I'm confronted to a strange problem that I don't understand.
When I start Netbeans 7.0 for the first time everything is fine but after a logout I can't start it again, no window appears. I can start it again if I delete ~/.netbeans which is annoying.
I use OpenJDK and Gnome 3.
I provided a copy of ~/.netbeans/7.0/var/log/messages.log:

Re: Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

Do you get any output when you try starting it from a terminal?

No, nothing:

Re: Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

Have you looked at processes list:

- after first NB session terminating - to be sure there are no java processes, and
- after second NB session start - to look for java process?

EDIT. Also try to add "-ea" java option to startup string - probably something like

-J"-ea"

Re: Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

Thanks for your answer.
The processes list isn't unusual and start netbeans with -ea doesn't give more information:

[thomas@ThomasFixe ~]$ netbeans -J"-ea"
[thomas@ThomasFixe ~]$ 

but an exception is thrown when I use -h:

[thomas@ThomasFixe ~]$ netbeans -h

If I delete ~/.netbeans and I try again, no more problem:

  --locale <language[:country[:variant]]> use specified locale
  --userdir <path>      use specified directory to store user settings
  --nosplash            do not show the splash screen

With --nosplash I can start Netbeans every time.

Re: Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

Look at the log it was saying:

libgif.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So, let try to install libgif!

sudo pacman -S libungif

It should solve your problem so you can start netbeans without worry about --nosplash wink

Re: Netbeans doesn't start after its first start

My netbeans didn't start, even after I installed libungif (which is now giflib) or starting it with "netbeans --nosplash".
Solution: After reading the log files I recognized that the libxtst was missing.

sudo pacman -S libxtst

I installed netbeans with jdk7-openjdk, which didn't had libxtst as an dependency (jdk6 had that - so everything should be working fine with jdk6). After installing libxtst, netbeans worked fine.

Remarks: Eclipse had the exact same problem: It didn't start because it needed the library libxtst.
