Broken plugin in Firefox
Btw, the 64bit JRE does not even have a plugin. An update to Java was installed today automatically via the updater, The Java plugin now shows a filesize of 0 (zero) with an indication that it is "inaccesible", when searching for it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 334783 *** This does not appear to be related to bug 334783. Please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398890 The installed plugin is not being recognized by SeaMonkey and Firefox when either application loads in a web page containing a Java applet. As I stated in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398890#c8 I'm seeing the same with openSUSE 10.3 (and 10.3.1 FACTORY) packages of Sun Java 1.6 when used with non-openSUSE packages of Mozilla software (e.g. the SeaMonkey builds I'm compiling myself here for dev purposes) and I'm hitting an assertion of the JVM there: ------------------------------ java_vm: xcb_xlib.c:52: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed. Could not read ack from child process Plugin: Java VM process has died. Could not start JavaVM! VM did not start up properly ------------------------------ /etc/alternatives looks OK, but it's definitely a problem with the JVM. When going to http://www.java.com/ they have a link "Do I have Java?". Clicking that link will bring the user to a page where they can check to see if it is installed. Doing this with both SeaMonkey and Firefox, the browser displays that the plugin is missing. If I go to the same page with Konqueror, the plugin works fine and the page indicates that I did not have the latest version installed. Same for me, 'Do I have Java' link just fails This may be related to bug 334783. As I said in comment #6, /etc/alternatives/ looks OK here, but the JavaVM is crashing with an assertion. The update didn't fix the plugin issue with SeaMonkey or Firefox, I am still seeing the same result as stated in comment 7 above. This also affects the 32-bit version (i386 architecture). edward, do: readlink /etc/alternatives/javaplugin ls -L /etc/alternatives/javaplugin Created attachment 184461 [details]

(checking box to indicate comment provides needed information) An update today that was provided by SUSE fixed this problem. The plugin is now found and applets will now load in, using both SeaMonkey and Firefox. Thank you. Also fixed for me on FACTORY and Java 1.6.0, where it also showed before, see Comment #6 - I hope marking FIXED is correct here. |
