How to install Java in Seamonkey 2.0.11? (Wary 511)
How to install Java in Seamonkey 2.0.11? (Wary 511)
I want to use a website to perform a task, but the website insists that I have Java enabled. Apparently, Wary 5.1.1 Seamonkey 2.0.11 does not have Java, and I can't find it under Add-ons or Extensions. Under the Tools > Web Development headings, there is a grayed out entry for Java Console. It is very likely that I will use this website only temporarily to find out if it can perform this task, and I expect to disable Java afterwards. I don't expect to successfully accomplish this task. Is there a particular reason why Java is not included with Seamonkey? Is Java evil? How do I get Java for SM 2.0.11?
Check if you have jre already:
If you get an empty line instead of any path, you're missing the Java Runtime (or is not into the path). Easier solution is this Shino's SFS: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=61287
If after the boot with jre SFS enabled you cant see the java plugin in the Seamonkey's plugins list, probably you're missing a symlink (see the instructions in the main post).
Code: Select all
which java

Can I add to this thread to say I have the same problem.
I have two web sites which tell me that I don't have jave enabled.
I have java installed for sure but obviously the link is not there.
I created the link suggested in shinobar's tread on the subject but no result.
Any help would be appreciated.
Doesn't work in Chromium eirther-irishrm.

Just realized of this, my java plugin is not that file.
Is /usr/java/jre1.6.0_23/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so pointing to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so.
Which means that probably you need to open the first folder in rox, select that file and drag it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so creating a symlink -relative-. Try this and let me know.

Hi GustavoYz:
My puppies:Slaco 5.3
Lucid 5.2.8
Your link is:
/usr/java/jre1.6.0_23/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
Shinobar's tread shows:
/usr/java/jre1.6.0_27/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
Both of mine show:
/usr/java/.........../plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
My java install: java1.6u17
According to that java1.6u17 should appear where the dotted line is but that part of the link is missing.
The other thing I notice is that both you and Shinobar have jre...... while mine is java...... is there a difference?
I have java1.6u17 installed because its the only one that works with libreoffice.
Thanks for your interest-irishrm
Edit: Just found the path:
/usr/java/lib/i368/libnpjp2.so. link to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so.
Working now.
