**

Create a symbolic link to the libnpjp2.so file in the browser plugins directory
**

  • Go to the plugins sub-directory under the Firefox installation directory
    cd <Firefox installation directory>/plugins
  • Create the symbolic link
    ln -s <Java installation directory>/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
