My system: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 Debian 6.0.4 stable Squeeze Package: sun-java6-plugin Maintainer: Debian Java Maintainers <pkg-java-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: i386 Source: sun-java6 Version: 6.26-0squeeze1
While using Debian 5 this plugin worked. Coming to ver. 6 I had the same problem as you, it did not work anymore. After much work on the problem I found a solution at least for me. It seems the plugin looks in the wrong place in spite of the alternatives system in Debian. It looks in the mozilla/netscape folder /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7 where the file libjavaplugin_oji.so resides. This file belongs to sun-java6-bin. /etc/alternatives/iceweasel-javaplugin.so (or epiphany-javaplugin.so) points to the correct plugin file /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so. So I created a symlink /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/@libjavaplugin.so to point to /etc/alternatives/iceweasel-javaplugin.so. This solved the problem. Why the plugin finds its way through the mozilla/netscape folder ../i386/ns7 lies in the plugin I think.
