Bug Description

OS: Windows 7 64 bits
Version: Gephi 0.7a4

Gephi does not launch at all. It was installed using a local admin account. Trying to run gephidesktop.exe results in the following error:

"Your user directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Gephi-0.7) cannot reside inside your NetBeans installation directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Gephi-0.7)."

Environment parameters:
HOMEDRIVE=C:
HOMEPATH=\Users\raynorvliegendhart

Workaround:
Change default_userdir in gephidesktop.conf from "${HOME}/.${APPNAME}/dev" to the hardcoded path "c:/Users/raynorvliegendhart/".

Hi,

Do you have the bug with Gephi 0.7beta? If not, I'll close this issue.

Did you installed NetBeans previously?

Someone else should find out what's going on, as I don't have access to a Windows7 to test it.

I only found this documentation about this kind of trouble: http://wiki.netbeans.org/TS_70_CLI

Actually, I have never installed NetBeans at all.
