I've never encountered this problem, but my /usr/share/doc/netscape-common-4.76/README
file says:
---------------------------------------
Java Applet Support:
Java Applet support is available for all Unix platforms.
To run Java applets with the Java-enabled version, Communicator
needs to be able to load Java class files from a file called
java40.jar. This file is included in the distribution, and is
searched for using the following algorithm:
if($CLASSPATH environment variable is set)
Look at $CLASSPATH, where $CLASSPATH is a
colon-delimited list of <path>/<jar-file> entries.
else
Search in order:
<program directory>
$MOZILLA_HOME/java/classes
$HOME/.netscape
/usr/local/netscape/java/classes
/usr/local/lib/netscape
If you were running Java with an earlier version of the Netscape
Navigator, you need to replace your old moz2_0.car file, moz*.zip
file, or java_3* file with the new java40.jar file supplied in this
distribution.
---------------------------------------
So I'm guessing you need the file "java40.jar" in one of the locations mentioned in
the README file.
The system I'm on right now has this file:
$ locate java40.jar
/usr/lib/netscape/java/classes/java40.jar
Do you have the java40.jar file on your system? maybe copying it into your ~/.netscape
directory will fix your problem?
Or else you could try setting the variable CLASSPATH so it point to the right location:
CLASSPATH=/path/to/java40/jar; export CLASSPATH
(then put it in your ~/.bash_profile to make it permenant).
