Same issue here - I am on Ubuntu 22.04 and NetBeans 25. Since I was not able to install the plugin by automatically downloading it from the plugins management feature in NetBeans I downloaded the latest releast (250) manually and added it to NetBeans via plugins management from NetBeans UI. On startup I get

java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory

and I tried to create the directory /home/myuser/.netbeans/25/.pythonlsp/.venv but that did not help.
In the Tools menu I can see the Python platforms entry and when I open it and try to manage the platforms, autodetect does not work and either no chance to add a new platform. An open file dialog appears, but I am not sure what I should select there. Selecting e.g. /usr/bin/python3 does not work. - A test python program does work on run, but autocomplete for function inside the same python file etc does not work.
