NetBeans IDE not running project or file

I have worked with NetBeans in the past and I wanted to work with it again, it was a long process of installing but I finally got it, and now that I am here it will not let me run my projects. For one: It does not create a project with ant(at all) For two: whenever I create a class it does not automatically close the name the class screen For Three: When I right-click my class the run-file option is greyed out For four: When I click run project the screen is stuck on "Initializing view, please wait..."

I really need to get this to work and I just can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong or if I am even doing something wrong.

Write click on project->properties->run->Relative Url->Specify the file name that you want to run

After this the specified file will run by clicking the green run button given on the top.

Had the same issue, couldn't get it to work for the life of me, installed the latest version and everything went smoothly. I suggest not wasting time troubleshooting as I did, but instead updating to the latest version first.

Regarding the 4th problem:

You need to set the main class in your project.

  • Right Click on the project folder, then click properties.
  • Get to the tab run.
  • Now type in the direction of your Main class you want to run: package + name of the class

example: package name: com.mycompany.myproject class name: MyClass.java -> directory of Main Class: com.mycompany.myproject.MyClass

  • click ok and try again

Worked for me

Some suggestions to try:

  1. Run a clean and build
  2. Right click the project --> properties --> ensure the correct main class is set
  3. Upgrade and/or restart NetBeans

Good luck!
