However the port seems not to work on firefox and in the posters case mozilla. Insetad when running the applets a red cross appears in the corner of the applet and the java console shows there was a NoClassDefException thrown. The OP obviously spent a few painful hours working out what caused it and tracked it down to the creation of the file ~/.java/deployment/log/plugin142.trace. The fix suggested was to chmod the log directory to 555 to stop the creation of the file. I have just installed the port and have exactly the same problem. I used the OP's fix and everything worked again. I don't know enough about the Java ports or have the time to look into and I am happy it works now. However, I would imagine someone should take a look at it and see if it has a proper fix. This is what I am running: $ uname -a FreeBSD paranoia 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #1: Fri Dec 3 18:15:16 GMT 2004 root@paranoia:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/paranoia i386 firefox-1.0_5,1 java3d-1.3.1_1 javavmwrapper-2.0_2 jdk-1.4.2p6_7 jdk-doc-1.4.2 linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.06 I have also just realised that any java3d applet runs at 100% cpu.
