IcedTea Plugin Dont work APPLET

[Marcos Roriz]

Installed icedtea6-plugin and openjdk6 with firefox 3.0.14 on ubuntu jaunty. All main pkgs (supported).

Icedtea dont load/runs/works with applets. One example are geogebra applet.
Trying to load any applets from this page would fail. http://www.slu.edu/classes/maymk/GeoGebra/

One applet that fail:
http://www.slu.edu/classes/maymk/GeoGebra/SecantToTangent.html

Tried on other pc with sun-java6-jdk/plugin and worked perfectly.

with a build from 20100411 head/1.8-branch I only see these hangs if security.provider.9 in java.security is uncommented.

a simpler applet showing the same behaviour:

proposed workaround:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/2010-April/008918.html

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

The firefox start script in MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME and a number of subdirectories of MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME. The
current NSS provider does open libnss3.so in the path which is configured in nss.cfg, but the dlopen call doesn't the depending libraries of libnss3.so in the same directory.

$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3 ldd /usr/lib/libnss3.so
 linux-gate.so.1 => (0x0068d000)
 libnssutil3.so => /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3/libnssutil3.so (0x006a8000)
 libplc4.so => /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3/libplc4.so (0x00f93000)
 libplds4.so => /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3/libplds4.so (0x003bb000)
 libnspr4.so => /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3/libnspr4.so (0x00f40000)
 libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0x00252000)
 libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0x0062d000)
 libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x0090b000)
 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x002af000)

This happens as well with the firefox binaries which are downloadable from mozilla.org.

The security provider should prepend nssLibraryDirectory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH before dlopening libnss3, and after that restore the path.

The workaround looks ok, just ignoring the libs provided by firefox, and using the libs detected at build time.

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

fixed in 1.8

[Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen (kamstrup)]

Can anyone elaborate on why the normal Java6 plugin is not available anymore since Lucid? IcedTea is a "replacement" that works on *zero* of the applets I've tried so far. The plugin from Sun available in Karmic and back has always just worked flawlessly.

This means that I can not use any of my online banking or other public services here in Denmark. If I where not a depending on Lucid for my development work I'd downgrade to Karmic right away since this is just a showstopper for me. Not to mention that my wife is about to strangle me! ;-)

[Kiri (kiri)]

Attempting to load an applet crashes Firefox. Is this the same bug?

OpenJDK and IcedTea worked in Karmic Koala.

[Kiri (kiri)]

sun-java6-plugin 6.20dlj-1ubuntu3 also crashes.

[Richard Griswold (richgriswold)]

I am running into the same problem trying to access an online learning site (http://www2.sunpoweruniversity.com/SunPowerContent/VAR/site/index.html). When I go to that page, it fails to finish loading and prints the following error messages to the console:

I can close the tab, but shortly afterwards the CPU usage for the Java process goes to 100%. I can manually kill the Java process and Firefox will still continue running. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 x86-64, and I have the following Java packages installed:

icedtea6-plugin 6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre 6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre-headless 6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre-lib 6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1
...

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

fixed in maverick and lucid-proposed.
note that the applet takes ages to load due to a slow server connection.

[Arie Skliarouk (skliarie)]

Using maverick (10.10) with icedtea6-plugin (6b20-1.9.2-0ubuntu1).

When I try to connect to remote console of IPMI of Supermicro Daughter Card I get following error:

Error: Unable to fetch applet instance id from Java side.

I removed Java, downloaded jre again and then reinstalled it.
But error is still there.kindly let me know possible solutions.

[Arie Skliarouk (skliarie)]

For me (maverick 10.10 amd64) the solution was to remove icedtea6-plugin, download sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin packages from hardy (8.04) (!) and install them:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-updates/sun-java6-bin

That worked and I now am am able to see the IPMI remote console.

[Damien Lecan (dlecan)]

Much better if you want to install Sun Java6 :

 - enable partner repository : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Adding%20Canonical%20Partner%20Repositories

 - install sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin

Theses packages are built for Maverick.
