NetBeans cannot connect to repository at (gitlab repository)

Yesterday I installed a new version of Netbeans (NetBeans IDE 8.2 (Build 201705191307)) and since then I can't connect to my gitlab repo (fails on trying to clone project). Credentials are fine, work on other computers and systems and I logged in over the browser(my first thought was that I tried a wrong password and banned my IP).
I use Windows 10, Java 1.8.0_31.
EDIT: Access to gitlab worked on an older version of NetBeans (not sure which one was it but above 8.0)
Updated JDK to 1.8.0_171 - still no success.
Also this was found in IDE log

The stack trace shows that the code failed when trying to create a symbolic link by calling Files.createSymbolicLink(). To do that on Windows 10 you must run with Administrator rights, or you need to have the right to create a symbolic link, so the true solution to your problem is to set appropriate User Account Control (UAC). This is the case even if you created the file or directory to which you want to add a symbolic link.
If you open a Command Prompt window, create a directory and then try to add a symbolic link it will fail with the error "You do not have sufficient privilege to perform this operation", but if you do the same thing when selecting Run as Administrator before opening a Command Prompt window it works fine:
The same principles apply when creating a symbolic link in a Java application on Windows 10, and again the proper solution is to set UAC appropriately. However, there is an easy workaround solution: just as you can open a Command Prompt window as an administrator, you can also run NetBeans as an administrator:
Once you do that the java.lang.InternalError should be gone.
You can run the trivial Java application below to confirm that admin rights are needed when creating a symbolic link under Windows 10. The application fails with a FileSystemException ("A required privilege is not held by the client.") when calling Files.createSymbolicLink() from NetBeans if it is started normally, but works fine when NetBeans is Run as administrator.
public class SymLink {
public static void main(String... args) throws IOException {
String originName = "c:\\ThisIsJunk";
String targetName = originName + "SymLnk";
Path origin = Files.createDirectories(Paths.get(originName));
Path target = Paths.get(targetName);
try {
Files.delete(target);
} catch (NoSuchFileException e) {
}
try {
Path symLink = Files.createSymbolicLink(target, origin);
System.out.println("Symbolic link created: " + symLink.toString());
} catch (AccessDeniedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

After having the same issue mentioned above while running in Administrator Mode, I noticed I had Netbeans running in Windows 8 Compatibility mode. Unchecking compatibility mode, I was then able to connect to the Github repository.

weblogic jmx tomcata php/java bridge and getting t3 protocol working

I have PHP and the PHP/Java bridge set up on Windows and Tomcat 7.0. All is OK there.
However, I am trying to write a php file with java calls to connect to my Weblogic server installed on my Windows 7 machine to play around with adding/deleting users/groups etc.
This is what I followed: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs90/jmx/accessWLS.html I also looked at this one http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2009/10/11/creating-users-in-weblogic-server-embedded-ldap-programatically/ (but for the second one I get an error on the java:comp/env/jmx/runtime line)
However, I cannot get my set up to recognize "t3" protocols to connect to my weblogic. the weird thing is I can connect via a t3 protocol using jython in a separate standalone script and to the console that way.
There is a section in first link above to make sure that wljmxclient.jar is added to the classpath. I set up a classpath to add that. I even use PHP to exec Weblogic's setWLSenv.cmd right before the connection to my Weblogic server is made to set my classpath . . . it shows the jar file in question being added. Still won't work. I then copied the jar file to the JavaBirde/WEB-INF/lib folder. Still wont' work.
I did try IIOP protocol but then I started down an new path of errors where "not bound in this context" was indicated. I tried switching between the 3 Mservers mentioned in the Oracle doc link above. No luck there either.
I see that others have run into this "t3 protocol not supported" message but I don't see any solutions.
Here is my code:
<?php
require_once("java/Java.inc");
$output=exec("C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\bin\setWLSenv.cmd");
$protocol = "t3";
$hostname = "localhost";
$port="7001";
$jndiroot="/jndi/";
$mserver="weblogic.management.mbeanservers.domainruntime";
$united = $jndiroot.$mserver;
$serviceURL = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL",$protocol, $hostname, $port,$united);
$h = new java("java.util.Hashtable");
$h->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL", "myUID");
$h->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS", "myPWD");
$h->put("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory.PROTOCOL_PROVIDER_PACKAGES",
"weblogic.management.remote");
$connector = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory");
$connector->connect($serviceURL,$h);
?>

This is how I FINALLY connected to my Weblogic:
1) I installed Tomcat 7.0 zip file instead of the installer and set it up manually. In my
setenv.bat file it looks like:
set CATALINA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\apache-tomcat-7.0.34
set CATALINA_BASE=C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\apache-tomcat-7.0.34
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_09
set JRE_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_09\jre
set JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.ext.dirs=C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\lib
set CLASSPATH=.;C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\lib\wljmxclient.jar
exit /b 0
2) I enabled IIOP protocol in weblogic through the weblogic console and added a userid/password which I used in num 3 for the userID/password
3) My php script on Tomcat 7 with the PHP/Java Bridge (not the JMXServerURL . . . nowhere did I find that you had to use "rmi" as the protocol")
$serviceURL = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL","rmi","localhost","7001","/jndi/iiop://localhost:7001/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.edit");
//"service:jmx:iiop://localhost:7001/jndi/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.edit");
$env = new java("java.util.Hashtable");
$env->put("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory.PROTOCOL_PROVIDER_PACKAGES","weblogic.management.remote");
$env->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL", "myuserID");
$env->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS", "mypassword");
$jmxCon = java("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory")->newJMXConnector($serviceURL, $env);
$jmxCon->connect();
$connection = $jmxCon->getMBeanServerConnection();
$mbeans = $connection->queryNames(null,null);
foreach($mbeans as $key=>$value) {
echo $key. "=". $value;
}
It connected and printed out all the mbeans for my admin server and my two managed servers that I created for testing.

Possible causes can be invoking https when the application is not configured for security

I create web service
#WebService(serviceName = "DynamipsService2")
#Stateless()
public class DynamipsService2 {
#WebMethod(operationName = "StartSession")
public static String StartSession(#WebParam(name = "key") String key) {
try {
return "100-Session started";
} catch (Exception ex) {
return null;
}
}
}
I want to test but on the page
http://localhost:8080/DynamipsService2/DynamipsService2?Tester crash bug
Error generating artifacts for the
following WSDL
http://localhost:8080/DynamipsService2/DynamipsService2?WSDL
Possible causes can be invoking https
when the application is not configured
for security
I created other Web services in the same assembly and it works.

I just experienced this problem as well. The solution for me was to use my hostname rather than localhost in the URL for the Tester.
So in my case, the following, which is what NetBeans/Glassfish did by default when I clicked Test Web Service in the NetBeans UI, did not work:
http://localhost:8080/Calculator/Calculator?Tester
However, when I paste the following into a browser, it does work:
http://david-pc:8080/Calculator/Calculator?Tester
I couldn't figure out how to change the hostname that NetBeans uses for the built-in Test dialog (nor could I cut+paste the URL from the error dialog). So I had to visually copy the URL from the error message into a browser, replacing the hostname along the way.

I had the same problem and the reason apeared in the Server's log. I'm useing Glassfish 3.1 with netBeans 7. And the error I got in the Glassfish output was:
INFO: [ERROR] com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not available in the classpath, requires Suns JDK version 5.0 or latter.
I googled a bit and it appeared to be because the glassfish server was working with the openjdk that came with ubuntu. If your problem is the same the solution I found was to remove the openjdk jre, like this:
sudo apt-get remove openjdk-6-jre
sudo apt-get autoremove
Hope this is useful.
PS: I assigned /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java in the java tab at the servers configuration wizard in netBeans but don't know if that was part of the solution (I'm afraid to change it back :p)

I had the same problem with Glassfish
but it was more compilcated because of the NAT
I have GF in NAT - do MYDOMAIN and port is redirected to internal machine
the problem in GF is that it tries to connect to itself by the domain name which again redirects to inside network
(the ?wsdl works properly)
I have made temp solution adding to /etc/hosts (127.0.0.1 domainname)
be aware that it's only a temp solution
try to check if you have "localhost" in your hosts file (in windows c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts )
and ping localhost
I will add GF log - maybe someone in future will search it by google :) :)
moreover I looked GF logs there was something like ->
Connection timed out
Failed to read the WSDL document: http://MYDOMAIN:8080/MYSERVICE?WSDL, because 1) could not find the document; /2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <wsdl:definitions>.
failed.noservice=Could not find wsdl:service in the provided WSDL(s):
At least one WSDL with at least one service definition needs to be provided.
Failed to parse the WSDL.

Which web server do you use? If you use glassfish you can open server admin page and select Configurations===>server-config===>Security
and make Security Manager enabled

Check your domains/{YOUR_DOMAIN}/config/domain.xml
If you setup Glassfish using Eclipse, all will be done for you automatically.
Now I am surprised if I start the domain from the command line, it gave me that error, but starting Glassfish 4 from Eclipse, it is not showing any problem.

One cause could be that you don't have correctly configured the environment variable JAVA_HOME (with the correct path) and the JAVA_HOME/bin directory added to global PATH environment variable as well. For some processes the glassfish look for the classpath of the JDK installed.
Hope this help.

I had the exact same problem and it is because you have a static method, I realised after debugging for some while. Just remove static from the method and it should work.
#WebMethod(operationName = "StartSession")
public String StartSession(#WebParam(name = "key") String key) {
try {
return "100-Session started";
} catch (Exception ex) {
return null;
}
}

Working with Php-Java Bridge

I am having trouble setting up the Php-Java Bridge setup properly.
I will explain what I have done.
My site is in pure php
For our payment transaction process we need to set up a php-java bridge
I followed this link to setup the bridge PHP-JAVA BRIDGE INSTALATION.
Here I learned that I need to have a private jvm to install the bridge.
So 1st i installed apache-tomcat-6.0.14 in Private JVM using my c-panel. After instalation it asked me to Map a domain to private JVM. So I mapped my domain example.com (which is the only option available) to it.
Then it asked to enable a traffic redirection from Apache web server to my Java application server (there was a check box and i clicked it)
Finally it asked me to deploy the WAR File (JavaBridge.WAR was my file) and everthing seems fine
Now when i go to http://example.com/JavaBridge/ I could see the javabridge examples and it works fine.
SO FAR SO GOOD
Now my problem starts here when I try to access a java class file from php. A sample test.php is what I create and put the following code into it.
<?php
require_once("http://example.com:portnumber/JavaBridge/java/Java.inc");
$System = java("java.lang.System");
echo $System->getProperties(); //This Part echo's correctly and shows the data so it means i can access Java.inc Correctly
$path_e24class = getcwd(). '/e24PaymentPipe.class'; //This part fails both test.php and java class file e24PaymentPipe.class are in the same directory in publich_html folder
java_require($path_e24class);
$pipe = new Java("e24PaymentPipe");
$pipe->setAction("1");
?>
My site contents reside in the public_html folder and the WAR file are deployed in private jvm.
These are the error message am getting.
1) Warning: java_require() not supported anymore. Please use tomcat or jee hot deployment instead
Fatal error: Uncaught [[o:Exception]:"java.lang.Exception: CreateInstance failed: new e24PaymentPipe. Cause: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: e24PaymentPipe VM: 1.6.0_22#http://java.sun.com/" at: #-10

Finally I don't know much about the java. So am stuck here not knowing what to do.

Here is a great step by step tutorial you can follow, which shows everything required! It is a little old (2007) but helped me a while ago.
There is also another option. You can install Apache Tomcat and deploy your war there. You can have even multiple tomcat instances simultaneously with your httpd running at the same time on the same machine, as long as you respect the port settings. You can even front them with Apache httpd.

you can try this:
package your code to jar, and copy it to java.ext.dirs which you can found in JavaBridge.log
copy the related class libraries to java.ext.dirs
restart the service of JavaBridge
good luck!
<?php require_once("JavaBridge/java/Java.inc");
try {
$hd = new java("hdfs.HDFS");
$hd->get("hdfs://master:9000/user/hadoop/test-in/logo_cn.png", "/home/hadoop/1.png");
} catch (JavaException $ex) { echo "An exception occured: "; echo $ex; echo "<br>\n";}
?>

You can use this php implementation on github that works with php 5.3.
See credits on the git readme for more information.

You can try this; put the JavaBridge.jar in tomcat's lib folder e.g. apache-tomcat-7.0.12/lib.
Restart tomcat server and then,
$pipe = new java("com.aciworldwide.commerce.gateway.plugins.e24PaymentPipe");
$pipe->setAction("1");
This way I created the php version of the object.

Why don't you put the e24PaymentPipe class in your Java application's classpath and skip the two lines below:
// $path_e24class = getcwd(). '/e24PaymentPipe.class';
// java_require($path_e24class);
$pipe = new java("fully.qualified.classpath.e24PaymentPipe");
You are mixing PHP side and Java side operations. in theory the java_require (which is deprecated) was designed to work on the Java side. You are specifying a PHP side path.

You can save yourself a lot of grief by using a pure PHP implementation of the e24PaymentPipe library.
Disclaimer
The link is to my github repo of the library, but I did not write it. See the readme in for original credits.

How to run a Mac application From Java?

I tried the code below to run a stand-alone utility app I created from Apple script but, I get a No File or Directory Exists error.
I put identical copies (for testing) in the project, dist, parent directories but, it didn't help.
So, my questions are:
Is my call to run the app bad (perhaps because it's not a Windows exe)?
How to run a mac app from java?
Thanks
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
// TODO add your handling code here:
Runtime r=Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p=null;
String s="MyLineInInput.app";
try {
p = r.exec(s);
} catch (IOException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(AudioSwitcherView.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
}

A Mac App Bunde is not an executable file, it's a folder with a special structure. It can be opened using the open command, passing the App Bundle path as an argument: open MyLineInInput.app.
EDIT:
Even better would be using Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("MyLineInInput.app"));

I used the Runtime.getRuntime().exec() method with the open command mentioned in the selected answer. I didn't use Desktop.getDesktop().open() since it unwantedly opened a terminal in my case and I didn't want to create an extra File object.
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("open /System/Applications/Books.app");
Reason for adding '/System':
It seems we need to use the /System prefix for System apps. For user-installed apps, that's not required, and it can be like /Applications/Appium.app.
To answer #Pantelis Sopasakis' issue that I also faced initially -
I get the error message: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The file: >/Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Microsoft\ Excel.app doesn't exist.
In this case, it could be simply due to not escaping the space characters in the path.
