jlc Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 $ $ ls /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_05/ bin demo jre LICENSE README src.zip COPYRIGHT include lib man README.html Well, the next would be /jre #ls /usr/jave/j2sdk1.4.1_05/jre/plugin/i386/???? I was trying to show you that what had changed from the directions you were following was just a version number (j2sdk1.4.1_05) so just compare the line in the directions for what you really have. More than likely the same path excpet a version number. Make sence. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted October 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 sorry, my mind is elsewhere... I'm getting behind in my Database course - I am supposed to be learning Oracle 9i nd SQL (I have it on my win2k machine) so this java install has kind of moved to the back of my mind... yep, I see now what you mean: $ ls /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_05/jre/plugin/i386/ns610 libjavaplugin_oji.so you were right, its different than what I thought.

Now just link that to your moz plugin dir. You should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 I installed 1.4.2 j2re from sun's .bin>.rpm last night on ML9.2rc2 and didn't have to do anything other than rpm -ivh. BUT, this has happened many times in the past as well in ML9.1/Mozilla-1.3x/j2re1.4.1. 'Usually', the only time I have to set ENV in .bashrc is for Opera. Back in ML9.0 and 8.1, I would, cheat if you will, by uninstalling mozilla and deps, AND java>install java AND mozilla and deps all at the same time (I used gnorpm to do it). This would set java up for the moz-family 'everytime'. Try it. urpmi gnorpm put all the rpm's in their own dir gnorpm>install [Just thinking of alternatives here :wink: ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlc Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 When I use MDK, I go one step further in cheating. I use urpmi and just urpmi mozilla-java I believe it's from texstar, and I believe that it does everything you need for Java to be in place for everyone else. I could be wrong on that though, I'm not 100% sure. :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted October 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 thanks, I'll try that later when I get home. Way back when I originally wanted to put java on my redhat box, I googled apt-get +java, but it seemed there was a licensing problem or something that prevented using apt-get for java. doh !! I always try the easiest ways first... :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
