New User with Java and Firefox
I never created a user when I installed FC3. I was under root and had java working under firefox. However I created a user so I wouldn't be doing everything as root. However I dont have Java on firefox now. I redownloaded java put it in my new home directory. I tried creating a symbolic link, but it was already there from before. How can i get something to work system and I guess user wide. Also what the hell do I do now??
Thanks a bunch David |
Where do you have Java as root and your normal user? If you keep it in place accesible by all users, all can use it with FF.
|
i have the files in /usr/lib/firefox and i also have the files that I installed in each of my home folders

Delete the symbolic link, then recreate it with the original java you installed system-wide. Also, how does it not work, the plug in doesn't load? Or does it load and nothing happens? (check about:plugins)
ex. cd /usr/lib/firefox/plugins ln -s /usr/java/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so |
Java apps just cant be seen in the new user, as root I can see it. It is not the plugin issue. I have the right symbolic link
|
How does permissions look like on the plugin? Is it readable/executable by normal users?
