I simply solved it by removing the updated module. On Linux: However, after letting the netbeans updater download the module a second time, the problem didn't appear again. In Netbeans 8.1, the location of this file is at: ide/modules/org-netbeans-modules-javascript2-editor.jar. answered Mar 7, 2015 at 18:56 4 I have the same problem in netbeans but i found solution by unselect the check from auto scan background in your netbeans IDE go to tools and then Option and select then to miscellaneous and select file tab inside miscellaneous and you will find check as "enable of auto-scanning of the source unselect that one and netbeans will be fast then i hope it will help you in fasting your IDE too answered May 27, 2016 at 12:25 1 After latest update of Netbean 8.0.2 I have the same problem that scaning process did not stop and go forever with CPU usage on 25%.

The reason the above procedure worked (in my case) is because it prevents Netbeans from scanning unnecessary Library paths that may not be present on your machine/network. answered Apr 2, 2016 at 7:31 2 On Windows 10 64bit I had the same problem with Netbeans IDE 8.1 I restarted Netbeans as administrator and the problem was solved. Then I closed Netbeans and started normally and the problem was still gone. answered Mar 9, 2017 at 7:30 Lexib0yLexib0y 50410 silver badges28 bronze badges 1 OS: Windows 7 x64. The following worked for me: I fully uninstalled Netbeans (ticked all boxes in uninstaller). For those who couldn't you'll need to go to 6 and delete a file called 'lock'. This is normally removed when the program exits but if you need to force terminate it'll remain there. After that I uninstalled JDK and JRE then downloaded Java Platform (JDK) 8u40: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html And Netbeans 8.0.2: https://netbeans.org/downloads/ Installed JDK (which installs JRE too), after that Netbeans. Once complete I loaded up projects where background scanning got stuck and it seems to have fixed it. Will post updates if it starts happening again.

It was fixed and pushed to the update channels yesterday. So for anyone still having this specific bug, let Netbeans check for updates. :) Bugfix: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250985 answered Mar 12, 2015 at 10:30 qraziqrazi 1,4061 gold badge15 silver badges18 bronze badges 1 On Ubuntu 18.04 / Netbeans 10.0, I had the same problem.

It was also hanging when I tried to compile and refactor. It would sometimes say 100% done yet continue background scanning for hours. I closed the project in which this was happening, and switched to a simple project and the problem went away. So I examined my code. I had class A extending class B, then class B importing class A. When I changed this, the endless looping in Ant stopped. answered Apr 13, 2016 at 3:32 1 Always I fix such Netbeans related problems by deleting cache directory. Directory location can be seen on About dialog window. For me, the path is C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\YOUR_VERSION answered Sep 21, 2016 at 8:38 Rajitha BandaraRajitha Bandara 7431 gold badge10 silver badges16 bronze badges This problem is related to one of the project opened in your IDE. As I had been facing the same issue but, after spending two hours on that issue I finally fixed that. Close project one by one or check and close the project where background processing is taking time. After closing the project delete the .nbproject folder and re-import the same project into your IDE. answered Oct 10, 2016 at 0:48 Wasif KirmaniWasif Kirmani 1,3054 gold badges23 silver badges43 bronze badges It should be called foreground scanning of projects. Closing the program and restarting solves it for me sometimes. answered Mar 30, 2017 at 13:03 I had the same problem but in my case I was on Windows 10 and running NetBeans 8.1. Before I formatted my laptop I copied and backed up C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\8.1 and C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache folders Then i followed the below steps:
I hope this solves your problem!! answered Jul 14, 2017 at 10:04 21stking21stking 1,2211 gold badge12 silver badges19 bronze badges In my Laravel case ,got this "forever scanning" because the project was created in another IDE. I put the old IDE related folders 7 , 8 , 9 into `C:\Program Files\NetBeans 8.0.2\ide\modules`0 . Relaunched NetBeans as admin. It will scan a little bit but next time wont stick on that. |
