> After installing the mevenide-netbeans plugin and restarting Netbeans, the following two exceptions are thrown in the NetBeans IDE upon startup.  In addition, trying to open a Maven 2 project hangs and never completes.
> Exception #1:
> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.codehaus.mevenide.netbeans.embedder.EmbedderFactory

> I have found the following workaround:
> In netbeans.conf, set netbeans_default_userdir to "C:/Users/karl/.netbeans/6.1" (edit the path, as necessary).  Also, add " -J-Duser.home=C:/Users/karl/.netbeans/6.1" to the end of netbeans_default_options.
