aze Posted December 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 (edited) thank you! my bad not seeing the FAQ before asking I did everything on that faq. /sur/local/mozilla/plugins [root@192 plugins]# ls flashplayer.xpt* libflashplayer.so* libnullplugin.so* java2/ libjavaplugin_oji.so@ mozilla can't see that ******* plugin! about:plugins show macromedia flash player but javaVM Ps.: I already restarted the browser Edited December 27, 2003 by aze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah31 Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 (edited) try symlinking them to the main mozilla plugin directory. java is sometimes very picky and must be in the main browser plugin directory. note you may have to quit and relaunch moz to be able to actauily use the plugin. (same with flash plugins, mplayer plugins, etc) you should NOT have to reboot. Edited December 27, 2003 by sarah31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bvc Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 Now, I don't know what happened: Mozilla do not start: <!--QuoteEBegin-->$ mozilla<!--QuoteEBegin-->INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?<!--QuoteEBegin--> when I got the error it meant I had a java compiled w/ a diff version of gcc than the moz I was trying to run. They must be compiled w /the same gcc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarah31 Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 what did you mean? most distributions have a set standard for where a rpm will install the various files. for example with arch linux mozilla installs to /opt/mozilla. with mozilla and some other apps they will create a users diredctory in /home/<username> and with moz there is usually a plugin directory in there an some plugins work when put in there. but looking at your path to moz now it looks like you did not install a moz rpm? all i know is that my java plugins do not work unless: 1. they come from a gcc3 compiled java release 2. they are symlinked to the root (main) mozilla plugin directory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aze Posted December 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 they come from a gcc3 compiled java release and where would I found a java release compiled with gcc3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knockout Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 I also followed this link http://www.mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=4548 Same here no luck. I can see in my in /usr/local/MozillaFirebird/plugins/: flashplayer.xpt libflashplayer.so libjavaplugin_oji.so libnullplugin.so but when I go to a page with java, Firebird tells me I need to install plugin. Sorry to interrupt in this thread like this. I don't need you to answer me but the originator of this thread, I am just sharing my experiences with Mandrake and suggestions by this forum. By the way I did follow suggestions about installing flashplayer and this one worked alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
