Sorry about that. No stacktrace just dialog box messages. Here is the rundown:
Using Java 8 SDK 1.80_172 as set in netbeans.conf
I go to Help -> Check For Updates and the first dialog pops showing:
The following plugins will be updated:
Docker UI [1.1.4 -> 1.1.4]
IDE Platform [1.34 -> 1.34]
Local Tasks [1.26 -> 1.26]
This appears for less than 3 seconds when its replaced with a second dialog
that shows:
Some plugins require plugin Java Source Base to be installed.
The plugin Java Source Base is requested in implementation version 2.
The following plugin is affected:
Java Shell Support.
With this second dialog the only choice is to Cancel.
If I use Windows -> Plugins then the Updates tab it shows me the following
titles in the left hand panel of the dialog. The text is what appears in the
right hand panel of the dialog.:

I updated netbeans.conf to point to Java 10 and rebooted the computer.

Docker UI [1.1.4 ->1,1,4]

In 3 seconds this dialog is replaced with one that says:

I am able to click on Next. Earlier today I got the Java Source Base message
but not now.
If I go to Tools -> Plugins and select the Updates tab I now have a list of
four updates. The first three are the same as under Java 8 plus the following
addition:
Ant
Installed version: 3.85.0.2 Available version: 3.85.0.2 (Internal Updates)
Source: Apache NetBeans IDE Dev (Build
incubator-netbeans-release-302-on-20180517)
Plugin Description
The Ant module integrates Apache's Ant build tool into the IDE. Ant is a Java-
and XML-based build tool, which you can use to write scripts to build, test,
and deploy applications.
Internal Updates
Java Shell Support [1.0.25.55.16.1.4->1.0.55.16.1.2]
If I click on the Update button I get the same dialog as I had in Java 8 that
read:
Some plugins require Java Source Base to be installed.
NetBeans appears to work other than 'var' crashing jShell.

The Apache mailing list removes attachments so we cannot see your screenshot.
Could you copy-paste the stacktrace or error you see?
