The Java program code is as following import java.io.IOException; public class Main { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { //this website has a small Java applet inside Runtime.getRuntime.exec("firefox http://javatester.org/version.html";); System.out.println("hello world"); } } My JRE (yes, JRE, not JDK) is Oracle JRE 1.6.0_38. What the program does is essentially opening http://javatester.org/version.html in Firefox. This website has a small Java applet, so performance won't be a problem. Actual results: What happens then is that, Firefox is opened, http://javatester.org/version.html is opened, BUT the applet inside the website FAILS to play. The same thing happens if my Java program opens any other website which has applet. However, if I run "firefox http://javatester.org/version.html"; from command line, everything works perfectly. Similarly, if I open Firefox, then I type http://javatester.org/version.html at the URL field, everything also works perfectly. This problem happens in Firefox, but NOT in Chromium (which I installed from your standard repository). This problem doesn't happen in Oracle Linux distro. I haven't tried in other Linux distros, though. Expected results: Open http://javatester.org/version.html in Firefox Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1091926/comments/8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2013-09-07T17:18:40+00:00 Walter Garcia-Fontes wrote: See also: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1091926 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1091926/comments/9 ** Changed in: firefox Status: Unknown => New ** Changed in: firefox Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1091926 Title: firefox java applet fails when the firefox is launched by a java program To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1091926/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
