Netbeans 6.0

hello,
i want to do some Ruby on Rails programming with the new netbeans 6.0 Milestone 9. To be able to test it directly and install a database i decided to do this on Archlinux. This is a fresh and up-to-date install of Archlinux. j2re and j2sdk are installed. I downloaded the netbeans-6.0m9-full-linux.sh from netbeans.org.
I start the installation and costumize it (no J2EE or mobile stuff). But after some time the installation halts. a log is written.
these are the latest lines from the log

The shortcut on the desktop is placed, but the install was not completed. When I try to open a new project, it doesn't show the options.
I tried again after deleting the ~/netbeans and ~/.nbi directory, but with the same result.

I tried installing netbeans as root as well, but then i got other exeptions (probably due to the fact i cant write to the Netbeans-folder)

Does anyone has an idea how to solve this?

Re: Netbeans 6.0

Would netbeans 5.5 do? There is a package for it on AUR.

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd

If not, perhaps the PKGBUILD 5.5 might help you out.

Re: Netbeans 6.0

it would do no good, since the ruby on rails integration is only present since milestone 9 of 6.0
