Hi Dave -don't have time for detailed instructions as I have to go out. I'd probably get them wrong anyway. Assuming you are in KDE, there is a little icon of a monitor on your taskbar towards the lefthand side. klick on this and you have a shell to type commands in. You should (I think) su to root for this (type su root without the quotes and enter root password at the prompt). Good luck There are some real geniuses here who pick this up and run with it.

[newbie] Install Java for MDK 10.0
Hello all, I have been trying for the past week to install Java on my linux box but I have not yet had any luck. Is there something I am missing? I went to java.com and downloaded the latest version of Java. Followed there directions for installing the .bin file (pretty straight forward). Once I did that I tried to go to a place the required java and it didn't load. Is there another way that I can install it or is there a directory that I need to reference with my firefox browser? Any help would be great. Thanks, Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

You're probably missing a link. IIRC java does not get installed where Mozilla/FireFox expects it, so you have to go to the plugins directory and create a link to the java .so file.

I just talked a friend through installing Java on a fresh 9.2 install over the phone last night and while doing that I realized that my java version wasn't current. So I ran through the same procedure as I was instructing him to use and it all worked. While about it; apparently the answer to your question about the plug-in version being gcc32 is yes, that's the correct one. Not that it seemed to matter on this system. The following instructions are what worked for my friend in a fresh install. The last step was slightly different for my machine because I have upgraded Mozilla to version 1.5 from MandrakeClub. I had to add the symlink for that as well as the default location. Download the J2SE rpm.bin file from Sun, open a terminal in the directory it was saved to and as super user: sh j2re-1_4_2_03-linux-i586-rpm.bin urpmi j2re-1_4_2_03-linux-i586.rpm ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_03//plugin/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ In order to make this work for mine I had to add the target /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/plugins/ I tested, and had Ed (my friend) test java function by going to this page: http://www.expertit.co.uk/support/browsertest/ with every java capable browser he had installed. They all worked, as did my Mozilla 1.5. Best of luck to you. It makes no sense why I have no trouble with java here in Mozilla and yours crashes, except for a possible bug in the _alpha_ level version of Mozilla you're running.

To answer the question you pose requires me to ask you; why? What does 1.6a have to do with the compiler version? Did you download the source code and compile Mozilla yourself using gcc32? A few more questions: You downloaded the Sun J2RE package or the J2SDK and installed it, and it works as expected everywhere except in Mozilla? Is it working in Konqueror or??? Are you sure this problem isn't just because you're running Mozilla alpha level software? You do know that 1.6 beta was released on Tuesday? Are there any java problems reported on bugzilla? http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ Since I'm running the unsupported Mozilla 1.5 from Mandrake Club I don't know what else to suggest.

Re: [newbie] [hijacked] java plugin, was Mozilla and my bank
Here we go again. Never been able to get Java plugin installed. Tried again a few months ago, and again yesterday on the clock applet link. Although the blurb says downloading takes 19 minutes on a 56 kilobaud modem, in reality it takes well over an hour, $2 worth of connect time at best, $6 at worst. At the end of that hour it blithely informs me that download was unsuccessful - error 202. What the hell is error 202? And is there a chance that the file could be cached somewhere? Don't know about error 202. As for not getting it to work, did you read thru the deep and confusing notes about which plugin you need? It's all new stuff since just a month or so ago, so i haven not yet installed this stuff. (i am still at the jre 1.4.1 level). So now you are left with the 2 versions based on gcc#, which you can check by typing about:buildconfig into your mozilla. It looks as though they both get installed, and you just have to link to the proper one. There is an rpm for java's jre 1.4.2 http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html Here's a couple pages on the random walk you go thru to figure out what to install: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html#Javasays: NOTE: Mozilla 1.4RC2 and later are built with gcc 3.2.3. You will need to use the gcc3 build of the Java Plugin with Mozilla 1.4RC2 or later. http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/javalinux.html says: If you're not familiar with symbolic linking, permissions and all, there are 2 ways you can do this. * Log in as root, and use the following command at a console, replacing [Mozilla Installation Directory] with the appropriate value for your installation (eg. /usr/local/mozilla): ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so [Mozilla Installation Directory]/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so * Create ~/.mozilla/plugins if it doesn't exist. Then use the following command at a console: ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so NOTE: If you are using a gcc3 build of Mozilla (such as Mozilla 1.4 or Netscape 7.1), use the plugin in the ns610-gcc32 directory, not the ns610 directory. To check which compiler was used to build Mozilla, see about:buildconfig (Mozilla 1.4a or later). Not sure if this helps you or not, but at least now *I* know why mozilla-firebrd handles jave for me and mozilla doesn't ! eric Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Konqueror Java question
Hi I have still a minor problem in Konqueror as I dont see javascript in it I have KDE 3.1 MDK 9.0 one example www.mamboserver.com (a nice CMS) They have menu on top of the page (under the logo) made with javascript I see it without any problems in Mozilla (1.1), but do not in Konqueror. I have enabled Javascript and Java on Konqueror settings. Also the path to java is correct ( /usr/java/j2re1.4.1/bin/java ) So can anybody advise what I need to check to get javascripts work in Konqueror.

Here are the steps to take in order to make this happen. OBTAINING THE PACKAGES FOR INSTALLATION: 1. Point your browser to the URL above at the Sun site, download the packages you need. a. if you're a Java developer, or a beginning Java programmer then all you're going to need is the JDK package. http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/download.html b. if you do have a need for both the JDK and JRE packages you can get both packages from the same place. How to accomplish this will become self-evident once you're there and see how things work. c. if you don't know whether or not you need both, then it's very likely you don't and should just download the JDK package. The links for downloading JDK=(SDK) or JRE are clearly marked and easily and quickly visible. For Linux there are two types of files you can download. Personally I feel the Linux Self extracting file is the easiest to work with. You can also download the RPM self extracting file if you want to install JDK/JRE via the RPM method. However, there is a drawback to getting the RPM and doing the install that way. By getting the plain self-extracting package, you, the user have total control as to where it gets installed to. When I explain the actual installation of the package you'll see the more clearly why this method of installation is easier and less work. With the RPM installation you actually have to know more about what needs to be done in order for things to work correctly. INSTALLING THE JDK/JRE PACKAGE: * Ok, assuming your download completed cleanly and successfully its time to start the installation. There isn't anything magical about getting this done. It's a simple and painless process. If you're a Mandrake Linux user and you're currently running version 8.2 or above, then it's likely you've already got a version of Java installed on your system that comes with and installs with the system. This Java system will perform most things adequately enough for small tasks. However, it is limited in scope and functionality which is why you're probably reading this HOWTO right now. This is not to knock Mandrake or their preparaion of the system, but merely to mention that the Java version that ships with Mandrake 8.2 and above is limited and can't do the things that Sun's package can and does. NOTE: In order to know for certain what version of Java may, or may not exist on your system issue this command to find out from the system what is installed on it: java -version You'll get one of three back from the system. 1. if it's a stock Mandrake install you'll see this returned to the terminal; Kaffe Virtual Machine Copyright (c) 1996-2000 Transvirtual Technologies, Inc.

Ho indicato a Konqueror il percorso dell'eseguibile java (che in realtà è un link simbolico ad uno script). Però molte applet java in rete non si aprono (soprattutto quelle relative a menù scritti in java)... voi che versione di java usate con la Mdk 9? E funziona tutto regolarmente? GRAZIE!!

Ciao , Tom per quanto riguarda i plugins di mozilla io ho fatto cosi'. ti scarichi quella sventolona di pacchetto rpm.bin da sito di sun per avere java j2sdk-1_4_0_01-fcs-linux-i386.rpm.bin e se uso j2sdkee-1_31-linux.tar.gz (sempre che non sia corrotto anche questo!!!) puo andare bene? che mi dite? e lo installi prima eseguendo da consolle il file dopo averlo reso eseguibile, ti leggi tutta e dico tutta la licenza sun , accetti e ti scompatta il tuo bel rpm che andrai ad installare. a questo punto ti ritrovi java installato in file:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610 e ci fai un link alla cartella plugin del tuo mozilla ( io preferisco usare le nightily version ed installarmelo io , non amo i font con anti aliasing che mandrake utilizza) per quanto riguarda kaffe' il consiglio e' di disinstallarlo e poi fare un *cd /usr/bin rm java javac jar ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin/java java ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin/javac javac ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin/jar jar* questo ti permette di linkare gli eseguibili di java al posto di quelli fittizi di kaffe. a questo punto hai java installato nella tua linux box ... Ora puoi installare anche limewire per esempio Ciao , Tom si si ...va bene :))) vete

[newbie] Yikes - Java
I'm still trying to get argoUML working. I successfuly loaded j2sdk and attempted argoUML. It failed requiring 8 other modules( if that's the correct term ). Anyway, I'm not easily discourage, so I download an rpm for each of the 8. Tried installing the first, ant and yup it failed on about 10 more dependencies. It's my experience, that when it seems like I'm working to hard, I usually am. Is there some kind of package/rpm that would include all the most commonly used java modules? So far, I've found rpms for these java modules at sourceforge. Can some installer be told to search the sorceforge site? Last, have I just missed the true path?
