jthing Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Hi all Over the last 2 days i have had a problem with firefox crashing with java plugin installed. I have tried firefox 2.0.0.6 & 7 Also java (jre) 5 & 6 I also have a problem in konqueror when it starts up in to web browser opening up mandriva's new web page, the error is A script on this page is causing KHTML to freeze. If it continues to run, other applications may become less responsive. Do you want to abort the script? I don't really mind about konqueror but would prefure firefox to work correctly...

daniewicz Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Maybe you have a corrupted firefox profile? Try running firefox -ProfileManager to start firefox with a new profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 i have up graded to latest firefox, but every time in install java plugin firefox crashes. Are you installing these with the software gui, urpmi, or with files you've downloaded from another source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardp Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 In SUSE, there was a problem (since fixed) that caused Firefox and SeaMonkey not to recognize the Java plugin. Is this what you are seeing (it looks for the plugin, even though it is installed)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jthing Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 i got java working in konqueror, but still crashes with firefox 2.0.0.11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardp Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) There is also a known issue with Java and Firefox. If you want to run Java applets with Firefox, one needs to use the 32-bit version of Firefox. Edited December 12, 2007 by edwardp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw1974 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I'm using Firefox 64 bit and java working OK for me :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Same here-working fine (Archlinux 32-bit, FF 2.0.0.11, JRE 6u3). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavaeolus Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 (edited) for me 32 bit FF 2.0.0.11 with JRE 6u3 (RPM directly from Sun) works flawless and much faster than every version before have you deinstalled the old libmozilla-firefox ?, don't know why but whenever I upgrade firefox through mandriva-repos the old lib doesn't get deinstalled Edited December 15, 2007 by lavaeolus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CygnusX1 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 the old libraries were still present. i uninstalled them but but the problem remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
