<p><b>Note:</b> Refer to <a href="https://netbeans.org/community/releases/55/relnotes.html#known_issues">NetBeans&#8482; IDE 5.5 Release Notes</a> for the list of issues specific to the IDE. </p>
<p>The unresolved issues for this release are as follows: </p>
<blockquote>
<a name="issues_installation"></a>
<h5>Installation</h5>
<ul>
<!-- Bug Id: 6348694 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6348694 -->
<!-- Bug Id: 6381305 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6381305 -->
<li>Installer fails to start correctly with little or no free disk space in the <tt>temp</tt> directory.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>On Microsoft Windows, if your system is set up to use a temporary directory on your <tt>C</tt> drive, and that temporary directory does not have enough space for the temporary files needed by the installer, the installer will report that there is not enough disk space on the <tt>C</tt> drive, even if you chose to install to a different drive. The installer is in fact reporting that it needs additional temporary space. <br>
The issue exists in the InstallShield framework.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b>Start the installer with the <tt>-is:tempdir <i>custom-temp-dir</i></tt> command line parameter. The <tt><i>custom-temp-dir</i></tt> should contain at least 130 MB of free disk space.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!-- Bug Id: 6420381 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6420381-->
<li><tt>NoClassDefFoundError: cannot access amserver</tt> occurs during installation.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b> If you try to install the software a second time without cleaning up the Access Manager directory, the configuration of Access Manager may fail during installation.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b></p>
<ul>
<li>On Microsoft Windows:<br>
Delete the directory specified in: <tt><i>%SystemDrive%</i>\Documents and Settings\<i>user-name</i>\AMConfig_server_amserver_</tt> and then remove the file <tt><i>%SystemDrive%</i>\Documents and Settings\<i>user-name</i>\AMConfig_server_amserver_</tt>.</li>
<li>On UNIX/Mac:<br>
Delete the directory specified in: <tt><i>&#36;HOME</i>\AMConfig_server_amserver_</tt> and then remove the file <tt><i>&#36;HOME</i>\AMConfig_server_amserver_</tt>.</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>

<!-- Bug Id: 6383530 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6383530-->
<li>Installer fails when using the <tt>-console</tt> and <tt>-silent</tt> options.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b> On UNIX platforms, if the installer cannot run the installation process without the graphics mode, the installer suggests that you run it using the <tt>-console</tt> and <tt>-silent</tt> options. If you try this, the installer fails.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Ignore the message from the installer and set up the GUI environment as described below to proceed with the installation.<br>
The most common cause for this issue is that you are connecting to the target system via telnet/ssh/rlogin, which means you must redirect the GUI to the originating system. To do this successfully, the following two requirements must be met:</p>
<ol>
<li>An X server should be set up and running on the system from which you are connecting.</li>
<li>The DISPLAY environment variable should be set to the correct value on the target system. Assuming a bash shell, the correct value and command for the variable are:<br>
<tt>export DISPLAY=<i>machine-name</i>:<i>display-number</i></tt><br>
Where <tt><i>machine-name</i></tt> is the IP address of the system from where you are connecting, and <tt><i>display-number</i></tt> is the number of the display, usually <tt>0.0</tt>. </li>
</ol>

</li>
<!-- Bug Id: 6383504 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6383504-->
<li>Installation fails after manual uninstallation.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b> If you try to install the product after performing a manual uninstallation by deleting files, the installation will fail because the data in InstallShield's VPD registry is not cleaned up.</p>
<p><b>Workaround:</b> Before starting a new installation, remove the InstallShield VPD registry. This registry resides on Microsoft Windows in <tt>%SystemDrive%\Program&nbsp;Files\Common&nbsp;Files\InstallShield\Universal</tt> or on Linux/Solaris/Mac OS X in <tt>~/InstallShield</tt>.</p>
<p>Note that other applications (for example, NetBeans IDE) can use the InstallShield VPD registry to store their uninstallation data. The InstallShield VPD registry removal prevents such applications from correct uninstallation. It is strongly advised to uninstall applications that use the InstallShield Universal installer engine prior to removing the VPD registry.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!-- Bug Id: 6383294 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6383294-->
<li>On Mac OS, cannot double-click installer to start installation.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description:</b> On Mac OS, if the default java version on your system is 1.4, you will not be able to double-click the <tt>.jar</tt> file to start the installation.</p>
<p><b>Workaround:</b> Run the <tt>.jar</tt> file manually from the command line using java 1.5.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!--Bug Id: 6379579 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6379579-->
<li>Installer exceptions when running on JRE 1.4.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b> On Microsoft Windows, if there is no preinstalled compatible JDK on the target machine, the InstallShield Windows launcher allows you to select a custom <tt>java.exe</tt>. After you select a custom <tt>java.exe</tt>, the installer does not perform a validation for compatibility. This means that if you select a <tt>java.exe</tt> from a 1.4 JRE which is not compatible with the installer, you will encounter a number of exceptions. The issue exists in the InstallShield framework.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Select a <tt>java.exe</tt> from a 1.5 JRE. See <a href="#req_sw" title="Required Software">Required Software</a> for information about downloading and installing a compatible JDK.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!-- Bug Id: 6375086 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6375086-->
<li>Installer fails to start correctly on UNIX.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>The installer is known to fail to start correctly on UNIX when is there is little or no disk space in the root directory of the file system. The problem exists in the InstallShield framework. This issue was observed on machines with less than 2.5 MB free in the root of the file system.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Free up enough disk space in the root of the file system and restart the installer.</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>When dragging a tab, a black square area is being dragged. After you
drop the tab problems with the Welcome screen repainting appear.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Set <tt>-J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true</tt> or use Java 1.5 for running the IDE (or <tt> _select_ Java 1.5</tt> during the NetBeans Enterprise Pack installation).</p>

<h5>BPEL</h5>
<ul>
<!-- Bug Id: 6478483 http://monaco.sfbay/detail.jsf?cr=6478483-->
<li><a name="6478483"></a>Mix of prefixed and non-prefixed expressions when editing an older version of the BPEL tool.
<blockquote>
<p>
<b>Description:</b> Today all xpath expressions created in the BPEL tool have a namespace prefix. In all prior versions of the tool xpath expressions were not prefixed with namespace. If you edit an older BPEL (created with an older version of the tool) and add new assigns to it, you will get a mix of prefixed and non-prefixed expressions since the engine cannot handle this mix. The following combination of problems may occur:</p>
<ul>
<li>
You may not get the expected result because the non-prefixed expressions may not return a result.</li>
<li>
You may get an exception because the code expects a result to be returned and due to the missing prefix no results are returned.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>Workaround:</b> Manually edit non-prefixed expressions to add a prefix.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!-- http://monaco.sfbay/detail.jsf?cr=6479743-->
<li><a name="6479743"></a>BPEL Service Engine &quot;Unexpected Reply Activity Encountered&quot; errors during JBI Longevity test run.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b> The <tt>Unexpected Reply Activity Encountered. Possible Cause: Potential multiple reply activities for given receive activity.</tt> server-side error occurs when running the benchmark project in a multi-thread environment, that is: </p>
<ul>
<li>The BPEL-SE is configured with more than 1 thread (default is 10 threads)</li>
<li>The BPEL-SE is running on a multi-processor machine (might occur on a very powerful single CPU machine too)</li>
</ul>
<p>
This problem can occur in any business process which receives a fault from another business process or an external web service and is running in a multi-threaded environment. <br>
Since the benchmark project has a business process which receives a fault from another business process, this error displays while running the longetivity test.
<br>
The issue reproduces on Solaris and Windows.
</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Change the benchmark project so that the business processes do not communicate using faults, but rather using normal replies.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<!-- http://monaco.sfbay/detail.jsf?cr=6481797-->
<li><a name="6481797"></a>BPEL processes continue running after test execution is completed.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>Currently runtime does not support time-outs for a process execution. This makes a business process wait for a certain event for unlimited time.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b>Consider using Pick activities with onAlarm branches where applicable.</p>

<p>
<b>Description:</b> On UNIX, after double-clicking the text field in the string literal box changes to the edit mode for a second and
then goes back to the non-edit mode.</p>
<p>
<b>Workaround:</b> Double-click the text field in the string literal box, then click a white place
inside the BPEL Mapper editor field quickly (before it turns back to the non-edit mode). The
string literal box will stay in the edit mode.</p>

<li><a name="am"></a>Issues with AM configurator and the installer with respect to AMConfig.properties.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>If the Access Manager server configuration is changed after an installation, the AMConfig.properties file does not get modified to reflect the changes. This can
cause discrepancies between the configured Access Manager server and the AMConfig.properties file
resulting in the IDE not being able to talk to the Access Manager server via the client SDK.</p>
<p>
<b>Workaround:</b> Manually sync up the client's AMConfig.properties file to reflect the proper Access Manager server information.</p>

<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>Execution of secure web services enabled application with liberty profile fails if the URL is &quot;localhost&quot;-based. When the Run project is invoked from the IDE, the default URL generated by the IDE includes localhost. </p>

<li><a name="83497"></a><a href="https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=83497">Issue #83497: Editing of Access Manager profiles may be unavailable if system proxy settings are used in the IDE.</a>
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>
On Windows, the NetBeans Enterprise Pack 5.5 uses the proxy settings for the
Internet Explorer as the system proxy settings. This may cause the connection failure and
makes editing of Access Manager profiles unavailable if the IE's proxy settings are
incorrect. </p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Set up your own proxy settings in the IDE. Open Tools &gt; Options dialog,
switch to HTTP Proxy and enter the correct proxy settings.</p>

<blockquote>
<p><b>Description: </b>If you add Liberty Token Profile secured J2EE modules to the Enterprise Application project, the roles added to the J2EE modules need to be manually added in the Enterprise Application for end-to-end security to work.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Manually add the lines below to

<blockquote>
<p><b>Description:</b> This is an Access Manager feature. There is a setting in AMConfig.properties for a timeout limit on response from discovery service. The registration request is rejected as an &quot;old message&quot; due to the time difference between the system clocks.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b> Put the system clocks in synch.</p>

<p>The issues described below occur with IDE when using the NetBeans Enterprise Pack 5.5 modules.</p>
<ul>
<li> IDE does not recognize projects created under root directory &quot;/&quot;.
<!-- 6394332 P1 MAC: There is no project tree in web report in Safari -->
<blockquote>
<p>
<b>Description:</b> On Mac OS X, Solaris, and Linux, the IDE does not recognize projects created under root directory <code>&quot;/&quot;</code>.</p>
<p>
<b>Workaround:</b> Create projects in a folder.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Characters do not display properly in some Asian locales.
<blockquote>
<p><b>Description:</b> When running the IDE on Red Hat Fedora Core 3 in the zh_CN locale and possibly some other Asian locales, the text may be unreadable because of rendering problems. This problem is a result of font support issues with the JDK on the Fedora Core distribution, so this problem also might apply to other Java applications running on Fedora Core.</p>
<p><b>Workaround: </b>There is no safe workaround for the rendering problem on Red Hat Fedora Core 3, so it is best to use a different Linux distribution or operating system in these locales. We have verified that this problem does not occur on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3. </p>
