I've tried installing Oracle Java from both rpm and tar, but for some reason, it does not appear to install properly. To enable Java in a browser, I'm supposed to create a symlink from either libjavaplugin_oji or libjavaplugin_oji.so to the .mozilla/plugin directory. However, after installing by either method, those files do not appear anywhere on my system. Even the directory those files are supposed to be in don't appear. Suggestions? tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

The Java plugin has a different name meanwhile. There is no OJI Interface in Firefox anymore since quite some time. libnpjp2.so is most likely the thing you are searching for with Java 7. On my system it's here: /usr/java/default/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so (there are some symlinks in the path though) Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

ARGGHHH!!! I tried this and got to the point to test my system for a webinar and another requirement popped up. I have to use Windows Media Player! Yuck!!! BTW, this is for a Cisco webinar. I have Windows 7 installed in a virtual machine, so I guess I'll be needing to use it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I'll have to give this a try. tnx -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
Here's a spec Oracle Java that I maintain in a private OBS instance for packaging java 1.7. It's slightly out of date but should be simple enough to fix those bits. -- Later, Darin On Tue, Sep 23, 2014 at 12:34 PM, James Knott <james.knott@rogers.com> wrote:
