findbugs plugin installation in netbeans

I'm using debian 9, netbeans 8.1. I click Source->inspect now install and I get:

"Findbugs integration" module has not been downloaded.

I googled and there is no updated findbugs for netbeans 8.1. How to fix it?

This was a known issue in NetBeans 8.0 (see NetBeans bug 243024), but it should have been fixed for 8.1. (I have also verified that the FindBugs plugin works fine with release 8.2.)

First verify that the plugin is installed and active:

  • Tools > Plugins > select the Installed tab and sort by Name.
  • Scroll down and verify that the Findbugs Integration plugin is installed and Active.
  • If not then select the Available Plugins tab, locate the Findbugs Integration plugin and click Install.

Once the plugin is installed and active it should work immediately (no need to restart NetBeans) when you select Source > Inspect with Configuration set to FindBugs, with FindBugs messages logged in the Inspector tab.

If you still have problems:

  • Open the error log: View > IDE Log
  • Update your post with the content of that log around the time of failure.
