install

I installed Netbeans on OSX Mountain Lion running JDK 7. Everything was working fine. Then my machine for no reason crashed. After this I could no longer open Netbeans anymore.

If I try to start Netbeans from the commandline:

/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans 7.2.app/Contents/MacOS/netbeans

Then it works fine. From there I can select Netbeans > About and confirm that my userdir and cachedir is:

User directory: /Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/7.2
Cache directory: /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/NetBeans/7.2

So, I deleted these directories and tried again, but alas, I can only start netbeans via the commandline.

Ideas appreciated...
