Here is my proposed patch. I'm not an apparmor expert, so this need review, but it works for me(TM).
** Patch added: "Add owner /run/user/*/icedteaplugin-*/* rw, to allow java plugins execution" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/+bug/1426316/+attachment/4357231/+files/browser-allow-java.diff ** Summary changed: - Applets won't run with Apparmor profile activated + Java applets won't run in Firefox with Apparmor profile activated -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1426316 Title: Java applets won't run in Firefox with Apparmor profile activated Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After activating firefox profile, be it in complain or enforce mode, no applet will run. The culprit seems to be: apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/usr/lib/firefox/firefox{,[^s][^h]}//browser_openjdk" name="/run/user/1000/dconf/user" pid=11973 comm=64636F6E6620776F726B6572 requested_mask="wrc" denied_mask="wrc" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000 The rules that prevent the applets to run belong to Apparmor abstractions, specifically /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/ubuntu- browser.d/java These rules will be enforced, even when usr.in.firefox is in complain mode (I don't know why exactly) Adding write access to the line owner /run/user/*/icedteaplugin-*/ rw in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/ubuntu-browser.d/java seems to solve the problem.
