Re: RH 7.2, J2RE 1.4 and Netscape 7.1

[Mario T. DeFazio]

Just to let everyone know, I finally found a binary package combination that works 
for
my up2date'd Red Hat Linux 7.2 (Intel) kernel 2.4.20-20.7:
  - Mozilla 1.3.1
  - Sun Java J2RE 1.4.0_04  (j2re-1_4_0_04-linux-i586-rpm.bin)
  - /usr/java/j2re1.4.0_04/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so
    symlinked into my Mozilla plugins/ directory
I had to do a little digging in the archives of mozilla.org and java.sun.com,
but thankfully the parts are still there.
Unless and until Red Hat issues an update to provide GCC 3.x for Red Hat 7.2
I won't be able to run Mozilla 1.4+ and J2Re 1.4.2+
Regards,
  Mario DeFazio

Unfortunately, the other plugin
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so
causes Netscape 7.1 to fail on startup:
 ws> netscape7 &
 INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?
 System error?:: Success

and Netscape just dies there.

Odd. One other thing you can try: Get the 1.4.0 plugin (I think it's
still available on Sun's site). I'm using that with the Mozilla 1.4
RPM from mozilla.org and it works fine.
Cheerio,
