After reading the sticky on 10.04 regarding java, I would like to know that if I install sun-java from Medibuntu, do I need to uninstall Openjdk and Icedtea? Can these programs coexist? Should I uninstall Openjdk first and then install sun-java? I think the absence of sun-java on my Dell is the root cause of the crashing that is ocurring when I try and access my AOL mail.
View 9 RepliesI have the following packages of openjdk and icedtea installed.
i openjdk-6-jre - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT
i openjdk-6-jre-headless - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT (headless)
i openjdk-6-jre-lib - OpenJDK Java runtime (architecture independent libraries)
i icedtea-6-jre-cacao - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using Cacao
i A icedtea-6-jre-jamvm - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using JamVM
Now I am not a developer or anything just a user. My use-case are two :-
a. Running java programs on the desktop
b. Running java in the web-browser.
I *think* both of them get installed by default. Openjdk via the default-jre virtual package while icedtea due to some of the openjdk headless packages.
~$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre
i default-jre Depends openjdk-6-jre (>= 6b23~pre8-2~)
~$ aptitude why icedtea-6-jre-jamvm
i openjdk-6-jre-headless Recommends icedtea-6-jre-jamvm (= 6b23~pre8-2)
~$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre-headless
i openjdk-6-jre-lib Depends openjdk-6-jre-headless (>= 6b17)
$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre-lib
i openjdk-6-jre-headless Depends openjdk-6-jre-lib (>= 6b23~pre8-2)
Notice the circular dependency at the end. From what I read the headless packages are basically for those systems where a server is running which does not have have a monitor, in which case I wonder why its installed in my system? My actual issue is of having the java for iceweasel. I did search for having java plugins and did not find anything except for icedtea-plugin to run java on my browser.
Trying to install it through gave conflicts :-
$ sudo aptitude install icedtea-plugin

Abort.
I did see the other solutions but most of them recommend downgrading both the openjdk and icedtea packages to the ones in testing rather than in unstable.
I use openSUSE 11.4 64 bits, KDE and FireFox 5.0. I regularly update. When trying to reach my bank, I get the following error: Code: icedteanp plugin error: Failed to run /usr/lib64/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk/jre/bin/java. For more detail rerun "firefox -g" in a terminal window. Is there anything I can do to remediate ? Does IcedTea everything that Java does?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOpenJDK has recently updated. Problem is that I am using the JDK from Sun/Oracle which I downloaded and installed along with other java tools and IDE's. I notice that openJDK is now the default JDK on the system.
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.4) (6b20-1.9.4-0ubuntu1~10.04.1)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)
Now my own java build is configured in $PATH but ignored, this is not good as I do a lot of java development. I would like to disable the OpenJDK or even remove it. I would also like to disable the update manager for this particular package and it's other add ons.
how do I uninstall Java? Tried with Synaptic and apt-get remove, but uninstalling sun-java6 automatically adds default-jre (openjdk) and uninstalling openJdk automatically installs sun-java ... but I don't want ANY Java on my machine - am I missing something? Already thought I maybe have a package that requires SOME kind of Java, but how do I find out?

I have recently switched from suse 9.2 32-bit to 11.3 64-bit (luckily I'm still mantaining the old machien for a while).I'm noticing that the graphics quality of the applets displayed by the new firefox (3.6.12 bundled with the opensuse distro) is significantly worse (mainly concerning fonts which look very poor) then the one I used to have on the old system.I see that the new firefox uses IcedTea 1.9.2. The old system was using, I guess, something called libjavaplugin_oji.Is this a known problem with IcedTea and is there a recommended replacenent ?

I just installed F 15. I have a Java app that I use a lot that is buggy with OpenJDK 6, because OpenJDK 6 is buggy, and apparently it needs OpenJDK 7 to run smoothly. Is there an RPM for OpenJDK 7 somewhere? I haven't been able to find it if it exists.
I also need ffmepg but have been unable to find a RPM for it either I did try to build ffmepg form source but it wouldn't build because it was missing Git what ever that is, which in turn I couldn't find a package for. I'm trying to avoid going on a scavenger hunt to get this installed and that's why I'm looking for an RPM.
If OpenJDK7 and ffmepg do not have RPMs for F 15 what are my best options?
I have both the openjdk-6-jre and sun-java6-jre versions of java installed on my Ubuntu Maverick desktop, with the sun version setup as the default. I was trying to load the web page,URL..., an amateur radio software defined receiver. I can load the page on Firefox run on XP in a VirtualBox machine, but when loaded on Firefox on my Maverick desktop, I wasn't getting any sound with openjdk, so I installed sun's and set it as the default. When I run 'java -version' from the command line, it reports the following:Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_22-b04)Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 17.1-b03, mixed mode)but on firefox, when loading the above page, it reports 'java version test applet 1.6.0_20' on the page. How do I get sun's version to run? I need to get the sound to work.

I've installed the newly released OpenJDK which includes the updated NPPlugin that's compatible with Firefox 3.6. However the CPU usage is abysmal. I'm seeing 80-100% by the java component. How I installed it and removed the previous Sun Java workaround is listed here.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy sig says 11.3, but I just did a new install to 11.4. I found a small problem with using openjdk 1.6.20 with one of my applications. I use Scottrader, proprietary Java application by Scottrade. It uses ports 80 and 443 for the data streams and I was not getting any data on 443 with openjdk. I stopped the firewall, just in case that was a problem, but it persisted. I solved the problem by installing Sun java 1.6.24, and running update-alternatives to use Sun java as the default. Data on ports 80 and 443 are running to the application now.
