I'm following this tutorial at https://netbeans.org/kb/74/web/quickstart-webapps-gwt.html

When I try to select the GWT SDK Location (which on my machine is C:\Users\Admin\Documents\NetBeansProjects\Shared\GWT\gwt-2.8.2) the Finish button doesn't enable and I can't continue.

I'm probably doing something embarrassingly stupid but any help would be appreciated.

I'm using

GWT 2.8.2 downloaded from http://www.gwtproject.org/download.html

GWT4NB Version: 2.11.0.2

Netbeans Product Version: NetBeans IDE 8.2 (Build 201609300101)
Updates: NetBeans IDE is updated to version NetBeans 8.2 Patch 2
Java: 1.8.0_181; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.181-b13
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_181-b13
System: Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_GB (nb)

@rKinson did you try this plugin version: http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/70885/gwt4nb-for-nb8-1

@markiewb can you add me to the contributors or is @ksfreitas only allowed to do it?

@rKinson forget what I said, this is the current version, yes: 2.11.0.2. Would like to have a look into it.

@Chris2011: I cannot add any contributors. Please open a new ticket in this project to request a transfer to you. Perhaps @ksfreitas is still receiving mails about new tickets and is glad to transfer the ownership.

@Chris2011, do some "pull requests". I will not set you as a collaborator without see some code modifications before.

@ksfreitas I already did this, please search your repo for my name (PRs). It is not that hard to figure it out. On the other hand, you are not working on this project anymore, so you can hand over the owership to someone else. Thx.

I will not transfer the ownership, but you can fork the project. For while, do some pull request if you want to do changes in this project.

@rKinson back to the topic, for me everything is working, what I did, but what I guess is that the location is the Admin and maybe NetBeans doesn't have proper access to that folder because of admin rights. Please move the gwt-2.8.2 folder into C:\Temp\Test or C:\Users\YourUser\Desktop... and try to start NetBeans as Admin.

@Chris2011 - I tried what you suggested but that didn't work either. Just to clarify: when selecting the GWT SDK, I need to select the gwt-2.8.2 folder that I downloaded and unzipped. As far as I can tell there are no jar files in there but in this case that is okay because jar files are not required?

@ksfreitas - This project requires maintainers and Chriss2011 wants to take on the project. What is the process for taking on what is a dead project. I'm not ranting against you however it is quite frustrating for me (and maybe others) who need this plugin which is broken and someone wants to fix it but isn't allowed.

I did the same. I downloaded the gwt from here: http://www.gwtproject.org/versions.html (the zip archive). Unzipped it and there is the gwt-2.8.2 folder. After I downloaded glassfish and set the path to the server, I set the path to the GWT folder and it worked. I did it with browse, not via typing. Maybe this is the problem? Can you verify it? Browse to the folder vs pasting the path into the input field or typing by hand?

Of course, I'm allowed, with PRs but as I saw that this project is not maintained anymore, I thought it would be good to have a new owner. I will not make much process for it, because I don't use GWT anymore (Lucky) but I can try to fix stuff. It is good as it is, if he doesn't want to handover or transfer the project.

@Chris2011 I have been browsing to the gwt-2.8.2 folder.

I am using Tomcat not Glassfish - selected in a previous step in the wizard - though I don't see why that would be causing a problem.

Can you try using glassfish instead?
