A most useful hint. The link that was present pointed to update8 and update13 is what is installed. It appears that the java plugin in java-1_5_0-sun-plugin-1.5.0_update13-0.5 is broken from on mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/suse/update/10.2/ Do regular java apps work (java itself, netbeans, eclipse)? I ask because a month or so ago a java update did not make correct links after installation. No java things worked. Correcting the links by hand fixed it. Then, a week or so ago a new java update came from suse. Seems the links are screwed up again. I am currently looking for the earlier post on this list that told about a program that sets the links. Because after I installed that update, my links seem to be messed up again.
Sounds like you have a similar situation with a link pointing in the wrong place. update-alternatives --display java update-alternatives --display javaplugin
shows the current state of the "alternatives" framework java uses.
ls -la /etc/alternatives/javaplugin should show the actual symlink.
And the updates _should_ have fixed all those problems now. If not, we need to review again.
Ciao, Marcus update-alternatives --display javaplugin No alternatives for javaplugin.
Is this a x86_64 machine and Sun Java? The 64bit java does not have the plugin.
Ciao, Marcus
