Had the same problem (on Windows XP).
If Thomas's solution doesn't work, try running whatever uninstall proggies
you have to uninstall netbeans and J2SDK. Then go to the Control Panel |
Add/Remove Programs and remove anything that looks even vaguely java-ish.
This should sort the Registry out. Then try re-installing. If you've
downloaded a JRE plugin and deleted it whilst doing the above, you'll have
to put that back too.
Don't accept NetBeans default paths. Make sure your JDK and NetBeans
executable are on paths with no spaces in them (or the IDE debugger may not
work).
As Thomas says, it worked for me.
