which: no java in (/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/bin/perlbin/site:/usr/bin/perlbin/vendor:/usr/bin/perlbin/core:/opt/qt/bin)
Cannot find java. Please use the --jdkhome switch.

Re: [SOLVED] netbeans does not start after install

JAVA_HOME is set to "/opt/java" in /etc/profile.d/jdk.sh. If you just installed the jdk, the behavior you're describing is expected as JAVA_HOME hasn't been exported.

Try logging out and then logging back in.
