I can't seem to be able to get Java working on my computer which is running Ubuntu 9.10 and firefox 3.6. I have followed instructions to download Java and when I restart firefox there is no Java plugin and it does not appear to be installed.

View 8 Replies View RelatedThe main problem is that the software was developed about 15 years ago and is incompatible with the most current version of Java. I would like to know how to install an older version of Java so that I can use it with just this one application, without changing the version of Java that I use for everything else.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAll day today, my laptop has been absurdly hot.The core temperatures were exceeding 70.0C even though it was on a cooling pad and I had disabled wireless, lowered the screen brightness, and put the CPU on Powersave. (For comparison, the temp usually stays at 45.0C if I do all this)
Finally, I decided to check htop, and I found IcedTea Plugin at the top with 99% CPU usage. This is used to run embedded Java applets (Java, not Javascript). Curiously, no Java applets were running at that time.Now skip ahead an hour to when I finally discover that the IcedTea Plugin was left over from earlier because it didn't stop running when it was supposed to. Looking online, I see several complaints about Java being very taxing on the CPU in Ubuntu, but I don't see anything about Java applets continuing to run after they're gone.
Can anyone who has Java installed confirm that this happens on their system?
1. Open htop. Search for "icedtea" to make sure it isn't already running. Then click on "CPU%" to sort the list.
2. Open this page in Firefox: www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
3. Check htop. Is IcedTea climbing to the top? (if you have Java, it likely will, because this is a common issue)
4. Navigate off of the Java.com page by closing the tab or clicking Back.
5. Here's what I want to know. Check htop again. Is IcedTea still there?
6. Restart Firefox to get rid of IcedTea.

I have this problem that whenever java is running (eg. Runescape), sound works only in the Java window, and I don't get sound from flash, mp3s or anywhere else.I found several similar threads but most of them were unsolved, and the few solutions didn't work.Note: Earlier, I used to use IcedTea browser plugin for java, which didn't seem to give any sound problems, though was a bit glitchy otherwise. This problem started only after switching to the Java plugin found

after the upgrade to firefox 3.5.9 yesterday, video from my internet camera doesn't appear. Firefox loads the web page from the camera, but the box in the web page containing the video stream doesn't show up.my system is opensuse 11.1, 64-bit. I temporarily downgraded to firefox 3.0.18 and the video worked as usual. By shutting off plugins, I found it was the IcedTea Java web browser plugin 1.6.2 that was driving the video. so I upgraded back to firefox 3.5.9, started looking for an upgraded version of the Java plugin, but the software manager shows that the latest is java-1_6_0-openjdk-plugin (1.6.2_b16-0.1.1 x86_64) and that it is already installed.

That's the error I get. When trying to run a java app with the firefox plugin, the browser simply crashes if it's the 64bit java or tells me it's not installed if it's the 32bit version.
I'm at a loss as to what to do. I think it has something to do with leftover gunk from a previous version I misinstalled(Is that even a word?) Anyway, the only thing that google could come up with was a solution for windows which laid blame on Bill Gates for having a bunch of pf (java prefetch) files stuffed into c:windows for no apparent reason. The solution was to delete them, but I can't seem to find the java prefetch folder in linux. The method I used is downloading the rpm from java.com the rpm2tgz then installpkg then cp libnpjp2.so to firefox plugins folder.
I use openSUSE 11.4 64 bits, KDE and FireFox 5.0. I regularly update.

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 3 Replies View RelatedI would like some help to run sql queries in Ubuntu. For a school IT project, we must write a Java program that runs queries. Seeing that I'm going away on holiday and will be away from my Win7 desktop, I will have to work on my Ubuntu laptop. When I run my program, I get these two sql exceptions:
Code:
sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
No suitable driver found for jdbc:odbc:ITPAT2010
Note: it is not my program that is causing the problem, since it works fine on Win7. But here's my code anyway:
Code:
void OpenDB()
{
System.out.println("INTO BRIDGE");
String url = "jdbc:odbc:ITPAT2010"; //JOU BRUG SE NAAM
[code]....
I believe the drivers that handles the connection to the database aren't installed. The format of my database is: *.accdb (was created on Win7 using Office 2010). I can't open this file, probably because I have no database programs installed?

When I run a java application (minecraft) the computer occasionally freezes. I'm not sure which version of Java I have. The online java app for telling you which version I have says that I have an old version. The command line says I have an up to date version. If I need to update Java Sun , how do I do it ? I followed the instructions once and didn't work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAnyone know how to get the sun java plugin to work with firefox 3.7? Any files I need to copy over to a different folder or anything?
I just installed Firefox 3.7 from the Mozilla Daily PPA and thats the only thing currently not showing up.
I downloaded Firefox 3.6 from the Mozilla website, and installed Java Runtime and Java Browser Plugin from Ubuntu Software Center, but Java will not work within Firefox, it works with Firefox 3.5.7 installed from the repositories, but I really want to use Firefox 3.6. I've even tried UbuntuZilla, without any success. This is annoying as I visit a lot of Java enabled websites.

View 1 Replies View RelatedProblem : Cannot get Firefox to work with Java

Right now I'm running Firefox 3.6.4. In ~/.mozilla/plugins I have a link to the Java plugin. I'm using Java version 6 update 20.
For some reason, Firefox will not acknowledge that I have the Java plugin installed. It won't show up under Add-ons > Plugins, and if I go to a web page that requires Java, it says I don't have it installed.
I've even moved my ~/.mozilla/firefox directory, allowing Firefox to create a new empty preferences directory, and Java still won't show up.
However, Java shows up just fine in Firefox 3.5. How do I get Java enabled?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI opened Firefox, and tried to use an Internet speed tester that requires Java. I've always used this with no problems. Today, I'm having problems with it. It told me to check that my Java plugin was enabled, or whatnot. I looked at Tools > Add-Ons > Plugins, and found that Java is gone....
What's up with that? I'm using the latest version of Firefox (version 3.6.8 / Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu cononical - 1.0) on Ubuntu 9.10.
I checked with Synaptic Package Manager, and I found sun-java6-jre, and all of it's related packages, openjdk-6jre-* packages, etc. were installed (over ten packages with 'java' or 'jre' and '6' in the package names).
So, I don't understand why Tools > Add-Ons > Plugins doesn't show my java plugin anymore. I also checked about: plugins (had to put a space between the colon and 'plugins' because a smiley shows up aboutlugins), but there was nothing in there about java either.
What's going on? Has Ubuntu decided it doesn't want to use Java (I remember reading something about Oracle changing the license for Sun Java somewhere)? Or is this a fluke?
Either way. Synaptic Package Manager says Java is installed... So, what else do I need to do to fix this? I read other posts about Firefox and Java, but they were about installing java, and the like, and I have Java installed....
