236266 - Mozilla and Oracle Applications 11.5.9

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Kelly Mah]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: 

I am trying to run Oracle Applications 11.5.9 using the Mozilla browser 1.6.  
It doesn't launch any of the forms.  I downloaded and installed JInitiator and 
the next time I go to that page it still says I don't have the plugin.  Mozilla 
does not recognize this plugin.  Have there been any work arounds to get 
Mozilla working with Oracle 11.5.9?  Are there any scripts written to use 
Oracle Applications?  We are trying to use Mozilla as a browser for an Oracle 
Implementation.  Thanks for any help.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to: http://socsoorer01.solnet.com:9900/dev60cgi/f60cgi
2. click icon to download and install plugin
3. restart Mozilla and login to Oracle Apps
4. attempt to open form

Actual Results:  
After I restart Mozilla, the plugin is still not recognized.  When I login to 
the Oracle Apps and attempt to open the form, nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
The software should recognize that the plugin has been downloaded and 
installed.  Oracle Applications should have launched the form to use whatever 
module.

Does this help?  (note: depending on the JInit version you'll need to change the
filenames slightly)

Netscape, Mozilla and Firefox users only : JInitiator by default will install
into directory C:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.9. In order for
Netscape, Mozilla and Firefox to use the JInitiator successfully, you must copy
the file
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.9\bin\NPJinit1319.dll
to the \plugins\ directory for your browser. (Commonly, browsers are installed
in subdirectories of C:\Program Files; for example,
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\.)
