Answer 1

I resolved this issue deleting the nbproject directory on my project.

After deleteting this directory, just restart your ide. It'll start going to declarations, functions and classes again.

Answer 2

I had the same problem and resolved by installing JRE

Answer 3

If You working with Drupal in NetBeans and have the same ctrl+click (Go to declaration) issue:

1. Add/associate *.module, *.inc extensions as text/x-php5 files (NetBeans > Options > Miscellaneous > Files).
2. Close NetBeans.
3. Clear NetBeans cache (as described above).
4. Open the project and wait for the scanning project task to finish.

Answer 4

For me, deleting the Cache folder did not work.

Then i realized that the source files that i have opened in NetBeans, were not included as part of a project. So i went ahead and selected: File > Open Project > chose the original project folder in my htdocs (XAMPP).

Then the declaration mapping worked like a charm. Hope it helps someone out there.

Answer 5

For me Ctrl + Click does not work when I choose 'Put NetBeans metadata into a separate directory' when doing PHP in Netbeans 7.3.1 on Ubuntu

Answer 6

For Linux users to delete cache:

rm -fR /home/[user]/.cache/[netbeans_version]

Then restart NetBeans.
