Here's the details of my installation:
Apache NetBeans IDE 11.0 (Build incubator-netbeans-release-404-on-20190319)
Java 11.0.2; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.2+9
Runtime: OpenJDK Runtime Environment 11.0.2+9
Kubuntu Linux 18.10
KDE Plasma Version 5.15.4
KDE Frameworks Version 5.54.0
Qt Version 5.11.1
Kernel Version 4.18.0-25-generic
OS Type: 64-bit
Apache/2.4.34 (Ubuntu)
PHP Version 7.2.19-0ubuntu0.18.10.1

I am trying to create a new NetBeans HTML5/JavaScript project from existing code. Here's the command sequence that I use in NetBeans:

File > New Project > Category: HTML5/JavaScript > Project: HTML5/JS Application with Existing Sources.
Then I select Next.
Now in the Name and Location > Site Root > Browse panel, I try to select the site root which is /var/www/html/mywebsite.

In the Select Site Root panel, I set Look In to the root directory (/) and Files of Type is set to All Files. I scroll down to the /var/ directory and expand the listing to see all the subdirectories.

Seventeen subdirectories exist on the computer within the /var/ directory but NetBeans only lists six. The /www/ directory is not one of them. In fact, NetBeans shows three subdirectories under /var/ that do not exist in the real /var/ directory! (/var/config/, /var/data/ and /var/db/)

The same behavior is seen in the Source Folder and the Project Directory fields.

NetBeans shows nothing in the Notifications panel.

NetBeans is running under my user and the folder I'm trying to list is owned by my user. It has permissions of drwxrwxr-x.

I couldn't find a solution for this problem in Apache's JIRA issue tracker, mail-archives.apache.org nor Stack Overflow.

How can I get NetBeans to see my source directories?
