I installed 12.04, then I installed all updates in Update Manager. After this, I installed all the necessary applications and installed NetBeans 7.2. But now I am trying to launch it from Dash home and it does not start. Please help.

I installed Netbeans 7.2 on a clean new installation of Ubuntu 12.04 and found, that it was not available in the dash at all. But it should have created a link on the desktop. Try that one and lock it to the launcher if its running.

If that does not help you should try to start it from a terminal and find out, if the startup has any problems or errors in the output there:

~/netbeans-7.2/bin/netbeans

If you chose to install it into another folder you need to change the path according to your installation path.

@user73795 you should not run Netbeans as root. – nem75 Aug 5 '12 at 12:02

Hello again. NetBeans 7.2 that i downloaded and installed from official website still do not run, but i installed older version from Software Center and it runs. But the problem with this version is that it has no C++ integrated and this is the language i want to use. Also i can't remove NetBeans 7.2. Please help. Thank you. – user73795 Aug 6 '12 at 5:40
