If you have for example icedtea6-plugin installed I think it has a higher priority than sun-java6-plugin because it is FOSS. I just used 100 as the priority because it is higher than the old plugin in sun- java6-plugin. You can install the GUI tool galternatives so you more easily can see which alternative is active.

[Bug 288397] Re: The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets
It seems that auto has been disabled on the symlinks if the update- java-alternatives has been used. So to for the update-alternatives to work, auto first has to be set on the plugins: update-alternatives --auto xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so update-alternatives --auto xulrunner-javaplugin.so update-alternatives --auto firefox-javaplugin.so update-alternatives --auto mozilla-javaplugin.so sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4/plugins/libjavaplugin.so xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/xulrunner/libjavaplugin.so xulrunner-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so firefox-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 But all this should really be done in the deb, why still ship a broken plugin when there is a working alternative? -- The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 288397] Re: The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets
Screw update-alternatives. This didn't work either. It doesn't even change the symlinks in /etc/alternatives/ . And I also didn't even had the /usr/lib/xulrunner/libjavaplugin.so and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so files. I ended up creating every symlink manually: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-javaplugin.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4/plugins/libjavaplugin.so sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/xulrunner/libjavaplugin.so sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so If any of these files already exist they should be deleted, otherwise the new symlink cannot be created. I made a shell script to do all this. I'm attaching it. Don't worry if you get an error message saying that something can't be deleted. This works 100%! I tested it on two computers and this workaround also survives a reboot. ** Attachment added: java_applet_fix.sh http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20439602/java_applet_fix.sh -- The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry for the mistake in the update-alternatives command. This I have tested and it is working if you have sun-java6-bin installed.

Nils, I think the update-alternatives should rather be used as follows: sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 and so on.

[Bug 288397] Re: The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets
After some after thought I think it would be better to use the alternatives system than to remove the symbolic links. Do this: sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-javaplugin.so xulrunner-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so firefox-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 100 Or you can do this with the GUI tool galternatives.

[Bug 288397] Re: The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets
The JUpload applet (http://jupload.sourceforge.net/) is experiencing this issue. I have tried with the sun-java5-plugin and sun-java6-plugin (the old libjavaplugin_oji.so plugin that is). Both of them make Firefox 3.0.3 freeze. Maybe this is a issue with Firefox 3.0.3 and the old plugin? I removed the symbolic link to the old plugin in a number of places: /usr/lib/xulrunner/plugins/libjavaplugin.so /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so I am not sure which of these is actually used by Firefox or if Firefox picks up plugins from a number of places, but removing the link from these places prevented Firefox from discovering the old plugin. Then I added a symbolic link in the $HOME/.mozilla/plugins directory: ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so Now the jupload java applet is working, with the new plugin. -- The old plugin hangs firefox 3 when loading java applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
