Firefox 3.5.6 is not taking JRE

Hi Guys,

Iam using openSuSE 11.2 and i have installed JDK1.6 with JRE, but when i try to upload pics at Facebook, its saying i havent installed JRE… how can i fix this…:frowning:

Remove JRE and install SUN
This a slightly old screen, but you’ll get the idea
ImageBam - Fast, Free Image Hosting and Photo Sharing

You can have both - just not both plugins. Look at my current list:

rpm --query --all ‘java
java-1_6_0-openjdk-devel-1.6.0.0_b16-5.10.1.i586
timezone-java-2009p-1.1.1.noarch
java-1_5_0-gcj-compat-1.5.0.0-107.109.2.i586
java-1_6_0-sun-plugin-1.6.0.u17-1.1.1.i586
java-1_6_0-openjdk-1.6.0.0_b16-5.10.1.i586
java-1_6_0-sun-1.6.0.u17-1.1.1.i586

I don’t use facebook mind you so I can’t test it

i have installed jdk1.6.0_16 and i didnt install the openjdk that came with opensuse…

when i gave the command you said i got

timezone-java-2009p-1.1.1.noarch

thats all. You can check whether you have installed the JRE support for the Firefox broweser by loading an applet, or you can give “about:plugins” command in Firfox.

That will list down all the installed plugins…

Read again what I said
Install the Sun version! With it’s plugin. remove other java plugin.

I have fully functioning Java

Be sure you have a symlink from the Firefox plugins directory to the
correct Java plugin file.

I’m not certain about Fx 3.5, but with Fx 3.6 a different plugin file is
now used. Older versions of Firefox used
<JRE>/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so while newer versions use
<JRE>/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

Hi,

try install java-1_6_0-sun-plugin
