159641 - Linux--Open java console windows that generates IO error 9

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Patty Mac]

Seen on linux redhat 7.3, jre 1.4.1 beta (netscape branch build:
2002-07-26-06-1.0.0)

1. Lanuch the above build (CHOOSE RECOMMEND INSTALL, do not select JAVA)
2. After the installation is done, go to jave site to install jre 1.4.1beta
3. Go to Tools > Web Development > Java Console
Notice the IO error 9 occurs in the terminal.
4. Go to the url above, it also genenerates the same error.

NOTE: if I use the same build, but I choose "CUSTOM INSTALL", that means Java 
is already selected, it 's jre 1.3.1_02, then it works fine without having
problem. Looks like it's jre 1.4.1 problem.
I am ccing Rob as well.

>System error?:: No such file or directory
That indicates to you copied the plugin or the symlink is wrong.

I tried today's trunk build with JRE 1.4.1, WFM.
Patty, after you installed jre 1.4.1, how did you set it up? Just make a symblic
link as follows in "plugins" directory:
ln -s ../j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so
