medo3891 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 What's the output of this in terminal: rpm -qa | grep java ll /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins Also if you go to about:plugins in FF do you see java listed there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg2 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 First of all, if you're using a 32-bit system you should remove the nspluginwrapper package. Then you can select what java version you what to use with alternatives --config java Then test your java-plugin again. If you are still having problems (I think you are using Mandriva 2008.1), and you have installed the firefox package from the mozilla site to your ~/home directory, you will need to make a symlink to libjavaplugin_oji.so in your Mozilla Plugins directory. Use the copy located in your java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0.xx/jre/plugin/i386/ns7 directory and symlink it to your new firefox/plugins directory.

stanituo Posted March 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 alternatives --config java I've two choices, what's the best one? If you are still having problems (I think you are using Mandriva 2008.1), and you have installed the firefox package from the mozilla site to your ~/home directory, you will need to make a symlink to libjavaplugin_oji.so in your Mozilla Plugins directory. Use the copy located in your java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0.xx/jre/plugin/i386/ns7 directory and symlink it to your new firefox/plugins directory. yes, I've Mandriva 2008.1 but I have installed Firefox 3.0.7 from urpmi. can you give me the code to do this symbolic link? thanks!

Greg2 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I would suggest trying both of the java-plugins, and use the one that works best for you. I didn't know that they had firefox 3.0.7 in the official 2008.1 Mandriva repos, if that's where you've installed it from you will not need the symlink. Sorry for the confusion. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I didn't know that they had firefox 3.0.7 in the official 2008.1 Mandriva repos OK, I've just booted up a 2008.1 system and updated the media. (Please note that I already had firefox 3.0.1 installed from /main/backports.) Then I went to upgrade firefox 2.0.0.19 to firefox 3.0.7 in /main/updates and this is what you get: To satisfy dependencies, the following package(s) also need to be installed: - firefox-en_GB-3.0.7-0.1mdv2008.1.i586 - gnome-python-gtkmozembed-2.19.1-10.9mdv2008.1.i586 - libgluezilla0-1.2.6.1-2.9mdv2008.1.i586 - libxulrunner1.9-1.9.0.7-0.1mdv2008.1.i586 - mailcap-2.0.4-20.1mdv2008.1.noarch - nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-2mdv2008.1.i586 - seamonkey-1.1.9-1mdv2008.1.i586 - totem-mozilla-gstreamer-2.22.0-4.9mdv2008.1.i586 This is more software than I want, need, or I'm willing to install on my 2008.1 system for firefox 3.0.7! :blink: I don't have the time tonight to check this, but I will take a look at it later this week. If you are still having problems, maybe someone else here that is using 2008.1 can help you more with this than I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Why do they build Firefox with seamonkey and totem-gstreamer dependencies? (lib)xulrunner should be enough. It's crazy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medo3891 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Firefox doesn't have a dependency on either seamonkey or totem-gstreamer. Try this as root in terminal: su urpme nspluginwrapper java-1.7.0-icedtea -a then restart firefox and try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tux99 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Why do they build Firefox with seamonkey and totem-gstreamer dependencies?(lib)xulrunner should be enough. It's crazy... And with the recent upgrate to Firefox 3.0.X from 2.0.X they broke Seamonkey's totem plugin support (and have no intention of fixing it), see here: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=48212 http://forum.mandriva.com/viewtopic.php?t=106196 I had to switch to the mplayer plugin for Seamonkey.

stanituo Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 (edited) My java plugin now works! I've only do this: su urpme nspluginwrapper -a Thanks to everybody for your help! If I can help somebody... if you need I can post packages I have installed... ask me. Edited March 17, 2009 by stanituo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 My java plugin now works! I've only do this: su urpme nspluginwrapper -a First of all, if you're using a 32-bit system you should remove the nspluginwrapper package.That was my first suggestion. :) Anyway, for completeness of this topic. You can upgrade to Firefox 3.0.7 on a 2008.1 system with urpmi using the --allow-nodeps and --allow-force options. You only need to install: - gnome-python-gtkmozembed-2.19.1-10.9mdv2008.1.i586 - libgluezilla0-1.2.6.1-2.9mdv2008.1.i586 - libxulrunner1.9-1.9.0.7-0.1mdv2008.1.i586 for it to work properly.
