Hello, I'm trying to get Netbeans IDE set up for Java development. I installed netbeans (v25) from the packages. When I start Netbeans, I get a white window. I see the following error on the terminal:
WARNING: package com.apple.eio not in java.desktop WARNING: package jdk.internal.opt not in jdk.internal.opt WARNING: package com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows not in java.desktop WARNING: package com.apple.laf not in java.desktop java.net.UnknownHostException: smwd: smwd: no address associated with name at java.base/java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost(InetAddress.java:1671) at org.netbeans.CLIHandler$2.run(CLIHandler.java:642) at org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Task.run(RequestProcessor.java:1403) at org.netbeans.modules.openide.util.GlobalLookup.execute(GlobalLookup.java:45) at org.openide.util.lookup.Lookups.executeWith(Lookups.java:287) at org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Processor.run(RequestProcessor.java:2018) Caused by: java.net.UnknownHostException: smwd: no address associated with name at java.base/java.net.Inet4AddressImpl.lookupAllHostAddr(Native Method) at java.base/java.net.InetAddress$PlatformNameService.lookupAllHostAddr(InetAddress.java:934) at java.base/java.net.InetAddress.getAddressesFromNameService(InetAddress.java:1543) at java.base/java.net.InetAddress$NameServiceAddresses.get(InetAddress.java:852) at java.base/java.net.InetAddress.getAllByName0(InetAddress.java:1533) at java.base/java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost(InetAddress.java:1666) Then, I tried pointing 'smwd' to 127.0.0.1 in the hosts file. The exception disappeared (warnings are still there). I still get the white window. Any ideas? Or Java devs, any recommendations for an alternative? -- Sadeep Madurange PGP: 103BF9E3E750BF7E
