Error in Netbeans

Yesterday I tried building a project but it never built because at the
bottom right of the screen was a bar labelled Scanning Project Paths
that got to 33%, then scanned the project paths again to 33% and there
was this flashing red arrow pointing to it. I clicked on the arrow and
it said to report the error but no matter how many times i clicked ok
it kept coming up with the same error. So I closed NetBeans via the
red cross at the top left. What can I do to fix this? Netbeans 5.5.1

You are using NB 5.5.1? Try version 6, it just came out. If the error
persists, you'd be much more likely to get that error addressed by the
NB community.

This is usually a sign of a corrupted cache in the userdir.
Try to delete the "var" sub-directory in your userdir. If that doesn't
help you probably need to delete the whole contents of the userdir, but
that will also delete all your configuration settings (fonts, colors etc).

For more information about the userdir check out this link:
