I'm running mozilla 0.9.5 on woody, and am having problems that might be java related (the real problem is that I can't access a page that uses java; the reason I say "might be" is that I can access and use some java test pages).
Awhile ago I got my java from Sun, but more recently have used the blackdown java as recommended by the mozilla debian read me. I just uninstalled blackdown and deleted all remaining java stuff in /usr/lib/mozilla (mostly plugins/java2) and then reinstalled blackdown. I'm not sure I've properly purged the other java stuff from my system, and am hoping for some tips on where else to look. In particular, I am suspicious that /etc/alternatives points to some kaffe stuff, since blackdown's site mentions incompatibilities with the kaffe vm. My /etc/alternatives looks considerably better since the purge and reinstall; e.g., java now points to the blackdown version. Here's some info that might be relevant--sorry about the long lines: wheat:/usr/lib/mozilla# ls -l /etc/alternatives/*java* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/bin/java lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/java.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/java.j2re13.1.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/java.ja.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/ja/man1/java.j2re13.1.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javadoc -> /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/javadoc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javadoc.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/kaffe.1.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javakey -> /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/javakey lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javakey.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/kaffe.1.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javap -> /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/javap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Mar 31 2001 /etc/alternatives/javap.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/kaffe.1.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 52 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/javaplugin.so -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/netscape4/javaplugin.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.1.so -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-0.9.2.so -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji-mozilla-cvs.so -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Dec 17 16:03 /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/lib/j2re1.3/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so ii kaffe 1.0.6-1.1 A JVM to run Java bytecode ii j2re1.3 1.3.1-1 Blackdown Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition ii mozilla-browser 0.9.5-5 wheat:/usr/lib/mozilla# ls -l plugins total 960 -rw-r--r-- 1 504 504 2363 Feb 15 2001 ShockwaveFlash.class drwxr-xr-x 2 504 504 4096 Nov 26 14:46 flash_linux lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Dec 17 16:03 javaplugin_oji.so -> /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji.so -rw-r--r-- 1 504 504 947992 Feb 15 2001 libflashplayer.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19080 Oct 22 13:29 libnullplugin.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Nov 23 08:25 raclass.zip -> /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/raclass.zip lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Nov 23 08:25 rpnp.so -> /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/rpnp.so (Hmm... real audio setup doesn't look so healthy either...). (The real problem I'm tring to solve is that if I go to http://sfpl.lib.ca.us/ and click on "View Your Library Record" a window comes up, but it doesn't have anyhthing in it. It should have a login dialogue. I know from talking to the people at the site they use java. Some with a mozilla 0.9.5 browser told me it worked for them, so I think it's some problem with my setup.) Thanks in advance for any help.
