I am running woody with Mozilla 0.9.5 - a few days ago, after failing to install the java-vm from the netscape plugin I was redirected to, I tried to download from Sun and then install myself following Sun's instructions.
I couldn't make it work, so I removed it altogether and by searching the list archives, I installed with apt a proper deb from: deb http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.blackdown.org/java-linux/debian woody non-free so, now the plugin is properly installed and shows up correctly in Mozilla's "About Plugins" as: /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so However, each time mozilla tries to load a java object, I get the following: $ LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/local/share/java/jre1.3.1_01/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin.so [/usr/local/share/java/jre1.3.1_01/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] I am guessing that this error comes from followed Sun's instructions and created the environmental variable: export NPX_PLUGIN_PATH=<jre>/plugin/i386/ns4 I have tried removing the environmental variable with env --unset=NPX_PLUGIN_PATH but this comman just reurns the same output as printenv, without listing the NPX_PLUGIN_PATH, so I assume that somehow that is already "inside" Mozilla. If anyone has an idea of how to correct this, I would be very grateful for advice. For reference, output of "# locate javaplugin" follows: /etc/alternatives/javaplugin.so /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.1.so /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.2.so /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-cvs.so /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/j2re1.3/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni.so /usr/lib/j2re1.3/lib/javaplugin.jar /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/netscape4/javaplugin.so /usr/lib/mozilla-0.9.1/plugins/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-0.9.2/plugins/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-cvs/plugins/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/javaplugin.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/javaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/netscape/plugins-libc6/javaplugin.so /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/javaplugin.so /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.1.so /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.2.so /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-cvs.so /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/javaplugin_oji.so Would the problem be that I am running mozilla-0.9.5 and links seem to be pointing to 0.9.1 and 0.9.2? Thanks in advance for any advice or help. Tomasz
