Java NetBeans

Invalid jdkhome specified – Cannot locate java installation in specified jdkhome:

You click the NetBeans IDE shortcut and got a message like below:

This is due NetBeans cannot locate java installation in specified jdkhome: C:Program FilesJavajdk1.6.0_22
Most probably you initially installed JDK at the default location above and then you uninstall it and reinstall to another location.

Anyway, to fix this, all you need to do is just go to find netbeans.conf from where you installed your NetBeans. For me, I have it at C:Program FilesNetBeans 6.9.1etc

Once found, open the file and look for something like below:

netbeans_jdkhome=”C:Program FilesJavajdk1.6.0_22″

Then, change the above to the valid path, example

netbeans_jdkhome=”C:Javajdk1.6.0_22″

That’s it!

How to make your Gmail look ‘cleaner’?

Wanted to removed some of the Gmail features which you are not using? If you are using Firefox browser, then you can do so by going to Firefox’s “Tools > Add-ons” and search for Stylish. Alternately, you can go to the direct link, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108/ to add Stylish into your Firefox.

Once you have successfully add/install Stylish into your Firefox, you will be able to see something like below:

Then, click the “User Styles” icon, which is just besides the “Plugins” icon.

Then, click “Write New Style” button.

At the “Name” textbox, I put “Remove Gmail Invites”. You can put your own name. But at the content, you need to put these codes:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document domain(“mail.google.com”) {

/* HIDE CHAT AND INVITE BOXES */

.nH.s, .nH.pY {
display: none !important;
}

}

Click Save button. Go back to your Gmail to see the suprise!

AJAX ASP.NET 2.0 VB.NET

Indirect reference is being made to assembly System.Web.Extensions version 3.5.0.0

The full error message is:

Error 1 Indirect reference is being made to assembly System.Web.Extensions version 3.5.0.0, which contains ‘AjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender’. This Project references a prior version of System.Web.Extensions version 1.0.61025.0. To use ‘AjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender’, you must replace the reference to System.Web.Extensions with version 3.5.0.0 or higher.

After some time finding for the cause, I realize that this is due to the me using the newer version of AjaxControlToolkit.dll. I should use the older version AjaxControlToolkit.dll for my ASP.NET 2.0 development.
