till I will find the time to do that, can anyone take a look @ my last post here, what is the accurate ln should I do now, and should I do it as root? :S

Thanks.

Hello again.

If you dont use a 32 bit browser, then your plugin wont work on FC4 x86_64. The browser given originaly by fedora is 64 bit and wont recognize jre or flash because its 64 bit not 32. So if you want jre to work you have to make sure you use a 32 bit browser.

No. I've downloaded 64 bit jre so it will work on 64 bit browser.

Okay guys

I've found out where that file is on my hard disk, how to do the ln now with the new path?

code:

Code:

[root@localhost /]# find / -name "libjavaplugin_oji.so" -print find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /proc: this may be a bug in your filesystem driver.  Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option.  Earlier results may have failed to include directories that should have been searched.
/home/zuki/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

help about this quote please.

Well, your system is very different from mine (FC4 64Bit vs Mandrake 9.1 32Bit), also, I installed both mozilla and java as root so I do not have a link to java from ~/.mozilla/plugins, so it is difficult for me to help you, but this may help you work out what is going on:

Code:

# slocate -u
# slocate libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/java/jre1.3.1_07/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.3/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
#
# ls -al /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           60 Dec 31  2003 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/java/jre1.3.1_07/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so*

So the link should be in /usr/lib/mozilla-whatever/plugins/ and should point to the libjavaplugin_oji.so that is somewhere in your java directory tree.
Try a ls -al /home/zuki/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so to find out just exactly what that file is. Is it a link? (it should be) If so, where is it pointing to?
I am disturbed that your find command only found one instance of libjavaplugin_oji.so. Do you see what I am getting at?

HTH

This means I havn't got the file at all???

Code:

[zuki@localhost ~]$ ls -al /home/zuki/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so lrwxrwxrwx  1 zuki zuki 54 Oct 30 16:25 /home/zuki/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/java/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so

DAMN... what shall I do then?
