You need to make a soft link as follows as root, in the directory /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4/plugins issue the command ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_03/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so The link created should show as lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 Jul 11 11:25 libjavaplugin_oji.so - > /usr/java/jre1.5.0_03/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so I tried it by copying the plugin into the firefox directory and it failed. The soft link was what is required. (Yes, I know there are ways around it, but that worked, simply, and reliably.) This is on FC3, and I have not done the java install on my FC4 box yet. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Christian Hauser" <c.hauser@xxxxxxxxx> > To: "For users of Fedora Core releases" <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Saturday, July 09, 2005 6:03 AM > Subject: Re: How do I run *.jar rpogram > > > > Parameshwara Bhat wrote: > >> Hello List, > >> > >> I have installed JRE 1.5_2 from sun site.
