JAVA on Swiftfox

[XMAG]

Hi,

I changed to swiftfox a while ago and I got most of my plugins working nicely with it, the only one thats missing is JAVA, I already copied the .so file from and to all directories I could find and still no JAVA plugin... JAVA is working perfectly with firefox and its also showing on firefox's about:plugins but it doesnt work or is listed under swiftfox's about:plugins...

Can someone help me?

Thanks

Think you must not to copy, only pass a link. It's the way that I remember. Try it.

In my case, for Firefox, the command to link Java was
ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_02/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.5/plugins/
I have Java installed in /opt. You need to do the same but alter the command to reference where Java is installed on your system and to reference where the SwiftFox plugin folder is. Assuming I installed SwiftFox-2.0.0.6 and it was in /usr/lib/swiftfox-2.0.0.6 my command would now be
ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_02/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/swiftfox-2.0.0.6/plugins/

cp /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/* swiftfox/plugins
This will work if you use as root from terminal.

Thanks! It worked using by creating the link (ln -s ... ...)
I had copied it before and it was still there but it didn't work, I guess ppesci was right, you cannot copy it straight away...
