NetBeans 6.9 Reference Problems !

[etdsbastar]

Hello there,

I had updated netbeans plugins and modules today through the inbuild update option. Now I am getting the following error:

Reference Problems for JUnit.

Please see the attached images.

Help me.

Not entirely sure, but try downloading the libraries manually, and place them as a JAR in '/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/ext' (or openJDK, depends on what you use). You'll probably need root rights to do this.
Let me know if this worked.

no such folder dear.

Where to download the junit libraries, can they be found in synaptic?

[Flaxis]

An apt-cache search leads me to a package called junit4. You could try installing it through dpkg, though, I would download the latest release from https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/downloads (the JAR, of course)

"no such folder dear."
Have you tried looking in openJDK equivalents? Explore /usr/lib/jvm and directories underneath on own insight. Since I switched to JRE from sun, my directory structure will probably be slightly different from yours.

junit is already installed.

Remove these packages and download the libraries without using syntapic. Sometimes software sources aren't up-to-date.
If even that doesn't work, follow this tutorial:

It says IcedTea, but IcedTea is the browser plugin used by OpenJDK, so you will change your entire JRE to sun.

i had downloaded junit-4.5.jar and kept under /<user folder>/.netbeans/6.9/modules/ext and my problem has been solved.

Thanks for all your support.
