Description

If I bring up NetBeans 12.6-rc1 on a project with Java & Groovy source files, and go to a Groovy source file, the system will not allow me to set a breakpoint.  However if I display a Java file and then go back to the Groovy file, I can then set breakpoint in the Groovy file.

It appears like displaying a Java file is activating something needed by the Groovy file.  Once it is activated all works well until I exit NetBeans and go back in.
