Yes, that's what I would have expected after installing OpenJDK v7 but 
this has to come automatically not manually as you did. At least IMO 
it makes sense to give a higher priority to the latest version of OpenJDK 
as it usually comes with all of the patches and security fixes applied.

How to setup Java Platform Plugin for Iceweasel 10.0.6

2012-08-05 Thread Csanyi Pal
Hi,

on my Debian GNU/Linux testing/sid system I have installed 
Iceweasel 10.0.6 and 
java version 1.6.0_24
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.3) (6b24-1.11.3-2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

I haven't enabled JAVA in my Iceweasel and don't know how to enable it?

IIRC you needed the plugin package (icedtea6-plugin). 

Then you can test if it is working from:

Note: OpenJDK version 7 is the most up-to-date.

 Alternatives is set correctly and Iceweasel sees the plugin, but it's
 marked INVALID in pluginreg.dat and never loads. I Googled around a bit
 and it seems like Firefox 6 and the v6u26 Sun Java package are supposed
 to work OK, but it's hard to tell for sure given the many platform and
 distribution differences. Any ideas? If this is just the current state
 of affairs on Sid, is there another Java plugin that's functional? I
 tried the icedtea one, but it seemed to have a dependency issue with
 xulrunner that prevented installation.

Hi, see #636514 regarding the icedtea-plugin dependency problem (with
xulrunner), it's a nice piece of a bug report :-/ .

Regarding sun-java6-plugin I don't know, but Oracle is forbidding
redistribution of his java soon [1], so better fix icedtea anyway.

Xulrunner is just an engine, and two of them (different versions) can
coexist with no problem (at least in all systems I've tried, x86-64,
x86-32 and mipsel).  Iceweasel 6.0 will use xulrunner 6.0, while
icedtea will use 1.9...

I'm not sure if this is expected to be like this, or if it was enabled
in purpose to support iceweasel 4 and then 5 and 6...

Please notice these combinations require experimental besides
unstable, :-)  And to make the dependency handling easier, I just use
aptitude in ncurses mode, since safe or full upgrades will mislead...

Thanks,

I always use aptitude anyway, but your combination doesn't seem to be
installable right now. I downloaded the squeeze version of xulrunner-1.9
and that installed OK after including the old libmozjs2d. But then the
openjdk JRE is looking for a newer icedtea-netx than is available
anywhere. I forced it all in anyway and got Iceweasel to recognize the
plugin, but then it doesn't actually work anywhere.

I'm going to say this route leads to way too much package breakage for
me to pursue any further at the moment. Hopefully there's a way to get
the Sun version working properly.

Aha... not so tricky after all. The problem is that the alternatives
system still points to the old plugin location at

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7libjavaplugin_oji.so

instead of the new one at 

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

Both files are present, but only the new style one works. I'm sure
someone better acquainted with Java can tell me why there's a
difference. In any event, I just bypassed alternatives by symlinking to
the correct file in ~/.mozilla/plugins. Presumably this will be fixed at
some point. If someone can confirm that I'm understanding the basic
situation correctly, I can file the bug report.

por si alguien la busca que la encuentre mas fácil:

I'm not going to log into your account, but I will suggest that you 
create a new profile for Iceweasel http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile 
and try to log in with that profile. If that works, then something is 
messed up in your old Iceweasel profile.

Something is definitely wrong with your system. To troubleshoot the 
problem, I'd first reinitialize the swap space, then I'd install a new 
version of the kernel (while keeping the old).


Is your Etch completely up-to-date? I hope you don't have any old C 
libraries or old versions of ld.so on the system, because they could 
cause problems.


I'd also check the failing binaries' md5sums to ensure that they had not 
been corrupted; post the md5sum for /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice, 
and I'm sure Etch users will give you feedback.

Yup, I did some javascript work awhile back and thank god for

It works point. Also behaviour is not completely consistent across 
browsers.
Firefox / Iceweasel is actually most compliant to the specification. IE 
does the same job but not always according to specification. What that 
means is that you have to write slightly different code for IE and 
different code for FF/Iceweasel to get the same thing done.
And in FF/Iceweasel you do it that way W3C defined it is to be done. IE 
is the one that does it differently. Don't worry about it unless some 
functionality breaks. which though I think is quite unlikely.
And those big corporations, they are basically writing broken code so 
that it runs on both IE and FF. Not their fault either.

Well curse words!!!

I was afraid that it would turn out to be something along this line.

I guess I will give up and do what I have been thinking about for
a couple of weeks. Set up a windows machine and stick it down in
my server room. Then I can VNC to it to do those Windows only
things like this topic, Pagemaker, OpenOffice, Opera, etc. It won't
be nice or neat, but at least I will be able to get something done
instead of beating my head against the wall!

Thanks for all the help and suggestions, and sorry for getting upset
but it really gets frustrating at times.

This is a flawed argument.

They might not care about this problem. Can you use gmail? They might
care about FireFox. Others might not. Perhaps you should complain to them
or chech their FAQs to see what happens.

Also, in the first email, you ask a non-specific question. Please, ask
a more specific question so you can receive the help you need.


I am having problems with some web pages not working.
(Not working means just that. The details vary from page
to page.)


That should be:

 I am trying to log in in example.com using the lastest Firefox in Sarge,
 and I get this error: XXX. I cannot login in example.org with a similar
 problem, but the message says: YYY.. Has anybody else experienced
 this problem? How can I fix it?

Oh yes. Another failed experiment.

Running Konqueror from the Gnome ApplicationsInternet dropdown does 
nothing.

No errors, no new windows or tasks, nothing.

If I open a terminal session then;

dgwicks:~$ konqueror
Floating point exception
dgwicks:~$

I installed it with apt-get and it only installed a couple of things
extra. All appeared reasonable. I first tried aptitude and it wanted
to delete half of my system. Probably thought I was changing from
Gnome to KDE. I replied 'n' to the prompt.

Just as an aside, it seems most of the things that fail on my system
get a floating point exception. Is that a clue to something?

Thanks for the help!

You may have a problem with floating point.  So find something that is
not X related that uses floating point.  What about compiling a kernel
(never done it so don't know)?

I appreciate the help and the effort, but come on people!

- I *am* running Iceweasel/FireFox.

- These web sites work *on*all*other*systems* I have accessed
 them from, and have done so for weeks, months, and years. It has
 to be a problem with Debian, Iceweasel, their implementation
 of JavaScript, or some strange config option on my system.

- These are *big*corps* with 1000s of users/customers. If it
 were a problem on their side I think they would have
 found and fixed it by now. Esp. since in one case the problem
 prevents logins.

The only other browsers I have found that I can install here
are Opera and Amaya.

Opera fails at startup with a floating point exception.

Amaya just doesn't support javascript.

Anything else I have found that might be installable is
mozilla based so probably not worth the effort.

Any more suggestions?

Try Konqueror.  Even though it is KDE's browser, it works with other
windows managers, although you'll likely be installing a few kde libs as
well, it is not gekko based and may work.

You can also try elinks2 which does javascript.  However, for

Is it Java or is it Iceweasel?

2007-05-05 Thread Dennis G. Wicks

Greetings;

I am having problems with some web pages not working.
(Not working means just that. The details vary from page
to page.)

When I check the error console I find a lot of messages
like:

Warning: assignment to undeclared variable speed
Warning: assignment to undeclared variable len
Warning: assignment to undeclared variable tid

I know from looking at some of my own pages that these
are referring to Java statements in the html similar to this:

   script language=javascript
   !-- Clock in Java Script ..
   var dateform
   speed=1000
   len=56
   tid = 0;
   ...

This is old code and works fine on other systems, etc.

So, any ideas how to fix this?

Is it Iceweasel, Java or Debian?

Many TIA as usual,
Dennis

!-- Clock in Java Script ..
var dateform
speed=1000
len=56
tid = 0;
...

This is not Java, but JavaScript; they are completely different languages.

 This is old code and works fine on other systems, etc.
 
 So, any ideas how to fix this?

Declare the variables just as you did with the variable dateform by prepending
them with the keyword var

I am having problems with some web pages not working.
(Not working means just that. The details vary from page
to page.)

When I check the error console I find a lot of messages
like:

Warning: assignment to undeclared variable speed
Warning: assignment to undeclared variable len
Warning: assignment to undeclared variable tid

I know from looking at some of my own pages that these
are referring to Java statements in the html similar to this:

   script language=javascript
   !-- Clock in Java Script ..
   var dateform
   speed=1000
   len=56
   tid = 0;
   ...

Sorry, not under my control! ALL pages that use javascript have this
problem, not just mine;
aweber, MSN, yahoo, whatever. All of them work fine on my wife's desktop
and all of our
notebooks. The problem only occurs on my desktop w/Debian/Etch 
Iceweasel (also Iceape
and Galeon), so something is not right somewhere.

I can't get any non-Mozilla browser installed to try any of them.

Well, it’s not really a problem since you only get warnings but no errors. But
if you want you can notify the site’s author about this. There’s not much else
you can do on your side.

 I can't get any non-Mozilla browser installed to try any of them.

Just curious: why?

These message are harmless. If more developers tried the
Web Developer extension[1] and tried to stay away
from warnings you would be happier.

Is it Iceweasel, Java or Debian?


It's life :)  (you mean JavaScript, BTW).

If you can, try to use firefox (iceweasel in Debian).
