Java Desktop System Release 3 for the Solaris 10 Operating System Release Notes

1.7.1 Java Plugin

Java Plugin is enabled in Mozilla 1.7 by default. If Java Plugin does not work, then create a symbolic link in the /usr/sfw/lib/mozilla/plugins directory, pointing to the appropriate file shown in the following table:

Platform 

Path 

SPARC 

$JAVA_PATH/plugin/sparc/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so

x86 

$JAVA_PATH/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so

In the Java Desktop System Release 3, $JAVA_PATH is /usr/java/jre.


Note –

Do not copy the libjavaplugin_oji.so file instead of creating a symbolic link. A copy of the file causes Java to crash.


Install all Java plugins in the /usr/sfw/lib/mozilla/plugins directory.
