Debugging views in Netbeans 7.2

Question

I recently updated netbeans from 7.1.2 to 7.2. Unfortunately, I can't find the way to activate the debugging views such as the list of breakpoints, the call stack and the threads list.

In netbeans 7.1 I can go in Window->Debugging to activate those but this menu disappeared in 7.2.

I checked if any plugin was missing but everything looks fine.

Currently, I only have the variables list/watches when I am debugging.

I have checked and I have them in Window -> Debugging. Maybe your installation is corrupt?

Relaunching the install script fixed the problem. Thanks – avandecreme Sep 19 '12 at 20:41
Happened to me with Netbeans 8.0.2 after a OutOfMemoryError. Relaunching Netbeans solved it. – Broken_Window Jan 12 '15 at 22:47

I experience the same problems after updating my NB 7.2 with the latest updates: Sources, Threads, Breakpoints, Watches, Variables windows are always empty when I'm debugging a project. Used to work fine previously. I use free-form projects. "Background project scanning" was running in some infinite loop, that was the reason. It was even difficult to quit NB.
