Executing java from dir %s to run %s\n", info.dli_fname, filename, dirname (filename), appletviewer_executabl 2168 2175 np_error = plugin_test_appletviewer (); 2176 if (np_error != NPERR_NO_ERROR) 2177 { 2178 plugin_display_failure_dialog (); 2179 goto cleanup_appletviewer_executable; 2180 } 2181 g_free (filename); The path is extracted from dladdr's result in info.dli_fname and it's checked if it's not a symlink by readlink function. The appletviewer_executable is made from "%s/../../bin/java". The point is in some cases dlarrd returns a path with /etc/alternatives/ from unknown reason. I was not successful to reproduce it, because there are few problems. One is that I don't know what is the ITNP_New used in dladdr call and how it's constructed. For future I plan add more debug prints to be able debug it more, but know don't have an idea. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
