Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
I've been running the Firefox and Thunderbird daily builds since
Thunderbird 3.0 came out on Ubuntu 9.10. I have Sun Java 6-15-1
installed. I had no problems until last night with Java not working in
Firefox 3.5.... working. There was an Ubuntu security update installed
last night and also updates to Firefox. After the update I saw Java
wasn't working in Firefox 3.5.8pre. It was too late to play with it.
Today my work computer had security updates and also Firefox updates
which took Firefox to 3.6pre. I lost Java in Firefox in that machine
also. When a site requiring Java is loaded, Firefox says there are
missing plugins. Clicking on the notification suggests the Iced Tea or
the Sun Java plugins. If I click on the Sun plugin, it tells me it is
already installed. I've tried relaoding the page. Closing the browser
and reopening the page, completely uninstalling Java and reinstalling
it, with complete shutdowns in the process. And completely uninstalling
Firefox and Java, doing a complete shutdown, then reinstalling Firefox,
and then reinstalling the plugin through the Firefox missing plugin
links, but the plugin will still not work. If you try to install it
again after that, it still says it is installed.
Please let me know if I can provide any further information.
