Hi all.
I have a problem with java applets and Firefox. This is the current
installation on my PC:
- FreeBSD 6.2
- apache 2.2
- tomcat 5.5.17
- firefox 2.0
- diablo-jdk 1.5.0.07.01.
All the packages have been installed with pkg_add -r (excepted diablo,
installed with pkg_add from my HD).
When I tried first to execute a very simple java applet, I received an
error message "Missing Plugin - application/x-java-vm".
I followed a suggestion and I created a link like this:
#cd usr/local/lib/browser_plugins
#ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
After that I haven't received any error message, but, simply, java applets are
not executed at all, neither my simple trials nor the standard examples for
java runtime (like TicTacToe and so on).
When I go to "about:plugins" with firefox, I see that java environment is
active:

------------------------------------------
The same applets are correctly executed - on the same PC - by konqueror; I
only had to modify Konqueror configuration changing java interpreter path
to /usr/local/bin/java.
Firefox in a Windows environment executes correctly all the apples.
Where is my mistake? Where can I find the solution?
Thanks for any help.
