First, confirm for us you have a correctly installed JRE by doing the
following command:
$java -version
java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode)
Next, there was a change in compiler affecting these browsers and their
plugins. You can see this difference illustrated below even between
Firebird 0.6 and 0.61 releases. Something similar happened between
Netscape 7.0 and 7.1, and also the Mozillas. Try linking as in my
example for Firebird 0.61 if you have not tried this already.
(firebird 0.6):
ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so
javaplugin_oji.so
(firebird 0.61):
ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
javaplugin_oji.so
