installing java on red hat 9 with mozilla 1.2.1
Hi,
Downloaded the j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586-rpm.bin from java.sun.com ; followed the instructions and installed the rpm .. subsequently created the linked the file: /usr/java/j2re*/plugin/i386/ns610/ libjavaplugin_oji.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. On opening Mozilla windoe in Help -> About Plug-ins -> shows : Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.2_02-b03 All the different MIME types default plugin as * and enabled.. However I still cannot run java applets... Am I missing something? Do I have to fill in the Edit -> preferences -> Helper Application forms.. If yes, could anybody help me through it? Thanks. |
Hi.
Try linking the ns610-gcc32 plugin instead of the ns610 plugin. i.e. link /usr/java/j2re*/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/ libjavaplugin_oji.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins Dave P.S. don't forget to close and reopen Mozilla. |
been able to load java on mozilla 1.2.1
Hi ilikejam
thanks for your tip: I tried it but it did not work.. finally I tried this: I used the same ns610 plugin and linked it to the mozilla1.2.1/plugins directory and not the mozilla/plugins directory: both were present in /usr/lib. It seems to have worked perfectly.. java applets are running cool. |
