Hello group,
This question will probably seem ridiculous to some of you, but I am just
having a lot of trouble with it. I am trying to install the Java plugin with
Mozilla Firebird 0.7. BTW, I am running a combination of Woody and Sarge.
Here is what I have done so far:
1) I downloaded the file "j2re-1_4_2_04-linux-i586-RPM.bin" from the Sun
Microsystems site.
2) Then I executed the file. This gave me an RPM file.
3) I then used alien to get a deb file. I then installed the deb file.
4) After that, I created a symbolic link in my ~/.mozilla-firebird/plugins
directory using the command:
ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_04/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
Any time I try to open a page that uses Java, firebird crashes. I looked
through the help files and firebird faq and didn't really find anything
useful.
So far, to troubleshoot, I did this:
1) in firebird I went to about:buildconfig. This gave me the following
output:
*********************************

*****************************************
From this I gather that since firebird was compiled using gcc 3.3.3 I am
correct in using the plugin from ns610-gcc32 directory.
2) Next, I went to about:plugins in firebird. This gave me the following
output:
********************************************************

*************************************************
Well, it seems to me that firebird thinks that the plugin is correctly
installed. So this doesn't point anything out of the ordinary to me.
3) Finally, I used ldd on the plugin to check for dependencies. I used the
command:
ldd libjavaplugin_oji.so
It gave me the following output:
***************************************
libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x40054000)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x400a5000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4016d000)

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
********************************************
I don't see anything out of the ordinary here either. It seems to me that all
of the libraries I need are on my system.
I pretty much all out of ideas now. I'm sure that its probably something
simple that I overlooked, but I'm not sure what. Any help you give would be
greatly appreciated.
