Title:
firefox java applet fails when the firefox is launched by a java
program
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hi Support Team,
I run a simple Java program (a runnable jar file). The Java program
code is as following
import java.io.IOException;
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
//this website has a small Java applet inside
Runtime.getRuntime.exec("firefox
http://javatester.org/version.html";);
System.out.println("hello world");
}
}
My JRE (yes, JRE, not JDK) is Oracle JRE 1.6.0_38.
What the program does is essentially opening
http://javatester.org/version.html in Firefox. This website has a
small Java applet, so performance won't be a problem. What happens
then is that, Firefox is opened, http://javatester.org/version.html is
opened, BUT the applet inside the website FAILS to play. The same
thing happens if my Java program opens any other website which has
applet.
However, if I run "firefox http://javatester.org/version.html"; from
command line, everything works perfectly. Similarly, if I open
Firefox, then I type http://javatester.org/version.html at the URL
field, everything also works perfectly.
This problem happens in Firefox, but NOT in Chromium (which I
installed from your standard repository).
This problem doesn't happen in Oracle Linux distro. I haven't tried in
other Linux distros, though.
Thank you
Fajrian Yunus
