| <blockquote> |
| <p> Welcome to NetBeans<sup class="tmtext">TM</sup> IDE 5.0. NetBeans |
| IDE is a modular, standards-based integrated development environment (IDE), |
| written in the Java<sup class="tmtext">TM</sup> programming language. |
| The NetBeans project consists of: </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>An <a href="https://netbeans.org/features/ide/index.html">open source |
| IDE</a> written in the Java programming language.</li> |
| <li>An <a href="https://netbeans.org/features/platform/index.html">application |
| platform</a>, which can be used as a generic framework to build any kind |
| of application.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>For information about new development features |
| in NetBeans IDE, see <a href="https://netbeans.org/community/releases/50/index.html"> |
| What's New in NetBeans IDE 5.0.</a></p> |
| |
| <p>If you are looking for information about installing the IDE, see the <a href="https://netbeans.org/community/releases/50/install.html">NetBeans |
| Installation Instructions</a>. |

| <h5 style="border-bottom:0">Required Software</h5> |
| <p>NetBeans IDE runs on the J2SE JDK 5.0 (Java<sup class="tmtext">TM</sup> 2 |
| JDK, Standard Edition), which consists of the Java Runtime Environment plus |
| developer tools for compiling, debugging, and running applications written |
| in the Java<sup class="tmtext">TM</sup> language. NetBeans IDE 5.0 also runs |
| on J2SE SDK version 1.4.2, but it has only been tested on JDK 5.0. </p> |
| <p><b>Note</b>: If you wish to run the IDE on earlier versions of the SDK or |
| if you prefer to install the IDE manually, you can download archived versions |
| of the IDE at <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/archive/index.html">http://java.sun.com/products/archive/index.html</a>. </p> |
| <p>You can download the JDK for your platform from one of the sites listed |
| below: </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><b>Solaris</b>: <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/">http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/</a></li> |
| <li><b>Windows</b>: <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/">http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/</a></li> |
| <li><b>Linux</b>: <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/">http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/</a></li> |
| <li><b>Mac OS X</b>: <a href="http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/javaupdate142.html">http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/javaupdate142.html</a> |
| (Mac OS X 10.3.4 or later). Mac OS upgrades are also available via Apple's |
| Software Update mechanism. |

| or http://www.innotek.de/products/javaos2/javaos2general_e.html. |
| <br> |
| If you get a NullPointerException when starting the IDE on OS/2, try changing |
| the name of your <code>JAVA_HOME/jre</code> directory to all capital letters. |

| |
| <a name="req_appserver"></a> |
| <h5 style="border-bottom:0">Sun Java System Application Server Requirements</h5> |
| <p>In order to use the J2EE development features of NetBeans IDE 5.0, you must |
| have the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8 installed |
| on your computer. You can download it<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download.html#sdk"> here</a>.</p> |
| <p><b>Note</b>: Because you also need the Sun Java System Application Server |
| PE 8 to work with the J2EE features of NetBeans IDE 5.0, your computer |
| must also meet the <a href="http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4707/">application |
| server's minimum requirements</a>.</p> |
| |
| <h5 style="border-bottom:0">Other Application Server Requirements</h5> |
| <p>If you are working with other servers, confirm that your system |
| meets their minimum requirements as listed below: |
| <ul> |
| <li><b>JBoss 4.0.x</b> CPU 400MHz, RAM 512MB , JDK 1.4 (recommended 1.4.2). |
| <li><b>WebLogic 9.0</b> See <a href="http://e-docs.bea.com/platform/suppconfigs/configs90/90_over/overview.html">WebLogic Server 9.0 Supported Configurations.</a></li> |
| <li><b>WebSphere 6.0</b> RAM 512MB</li> |
| </ul> |

| |
| <a name="compatibility"></a> |
| <h2>Compatibility</h2> |
| When you first run the IDE, you can import a subset of the settings |
| you used in NetBeans IDE 4.1. If you choose not to import settings from a previous |
| release, the IDE opens using the default settings. Project-specific settings |
| are not importable from version 3.6. |
| <blockquote><b>Note:</b><i> The IDE only recognizes previous installations where |
| the user directory resides in the default location. It does not recognize |
| installations where you have specified a user directory using the <code>--userdir</code> |
| switch. If you would like to import settings from an IDE that the installer |
| does not recognize, download an archive version of the IDE instead of the |
| installer.</i></blockquote> |
| <p>Though it is possible to import settings from a previous IDE installation |
| into NetBeans IDE 5.0, it is not possible to import settings |
| from NetBeans IDE 5.0 into an earlier IDE release. </p> |
| |
| <p><b>Note:</b>If you edit the Project Properties for a project that was created |
| in NetBeans IDE 4.1 or earlier in NetBeans IDE 5.0, the project will no longer |
| work in the earlier NetBeans IDE versions. </p> |

| <p><b>Description:</b></p> |
| <p>Sun Java System Application Server installation fails. Note that |
| this problem has been known to occur both when using the NetBeans IDE 5.0 |
| IDE and Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.2 Bundle |
| installer as well as the stand-alone Application Server installer. |
| This happens when a previous installation of the Application Server has failed and |
| subsequent attempts at uninstallation were also unsuccessful (i.e. some |
| registry entries or configuration files weren't deleted). </p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workaround:</b></p> |
| <p>If this happens, remove all previous installations of the Sun Java |
| System Application Server. Then delete the installer's <code><USERHOME>\Local |
| Settings\temp\</code> directory and |
| the Application Server's <code><userhome>\Application |
| Data\Sun\tmp\</code> directory (note that files may also be located in <code><WINDIR>\Sun\</code>). |
| If a previous uninstallation attempt of the Application Server was |
| unsuccessful, also delete the <code><SYSTEMDIR>/productregistry</code> file. |
| Next, create a new directory within which to install the software |
| and ensure that the directory is empty and writable. Finally, reinstall |
| the Application Server in the new location on your system. <!--<b>Note: </b>in |
| general, it is recommended that users use the provided uninstaller |

| to value <tt>Sun</tt>. Note that the performance of the |

| <p><b>Description:</b></p> |
| <p>When starting NetBeans with the SELinux (Security-enhanced) Linux |
| option enabled, startup fails.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workaround:</b></p> |
| <p>If this happens, disable SELinux temporarily by typing |
| <tt>#setenforce 0</tt> from the command line. Note that this |
| requires root priviledges. Then add <tt>selinux=0</tt> to |
| your kernel command line to disable SELinux at boot up.</p> |

| <p><b>Description:</b></p> |
| <p>Network communication broken on Linux with IPv6 enabled, |
| preventing the IDE from connecting to bundled servers, |
| Auto Update, etc.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workaround:</b></p> |
| <p>If this happens, run the IDE using the |
| <code>-J-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true'</code> switch. |
| Alternatively, disable IPv6 (in <tt>/etc/modules.conf</tt> |
| or <tt>/etc/modprobe.conf</tt>). <p>For more information see: |

| <blockquote> |
| <p><b>Description:</b></p> |
| <p>Web Services node is disabled when running the IDE on JDK 1.4. This occurs |
| because Web services rely on the JAX-RPC 1.6 XML library. When running the IDE |
| on JDK 1.4, the necessary classes are not available to the IDE by default. |
| Note that in JDK 1.5 and higher, the library's classes are part of the JDK. </p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workaround:</b></p> |
| <p>To enable web services when running on JDK 1.4.2_xx, use the Update Center to |
| add the JAX-RPC 1.6 XML library to the IDE.</p> |
