JavaScript is not Java; reassigning to OJI component.


Note the error "Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type"
             = "No file or catalog of this type"

               "Mauvais descripteur de fichier" 
             = "Bad file descriptor"

Eric: this site works fine for me using Mozilla 20020806xx on WinNT.
I am using this Java Plug-in (from Mozilla Help > About Plug-ins):

    Java Plug-in 1.3.0_01 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)


I notice your build is from 2002-05-29. Could you try this site again
with a current build and see if it works now? If so, you can resolve
this bug as WORKSFORME (see option buttons above).

If not, let us know what build date you're using, and what 
Java plug-in you have; thanks -

[Igor Nekrestyanov]

reporter: what is your java plugin version?
          are there any hs*.log files created after the crash?

Comment 3

[Eric Pailleau]

Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.

The Java plugin is Plug-in1.3.0_02

Gonna try with the last Built.

To be continued ;>)

Seeing the same error when trying to go to BBC site : http://news.bbc.co.uk/

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Exec of "java_vm" failed: 2
<
System error?:: No such file or directory
Gdk-ERROR **: Fatal IO error 9 (Bad file descriptor) on X server :0.0.
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from browser
System error?:: Resource temporarily unavailable

Using the nightly build :
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2a) Gecko/20020908

Java plugin :
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.3.0_02

This used to work fine until a few weeks ago, using the same plugin.

[Phil Schwartau]

Confirming based on independent reports -

Comment 6

[doeni]

Just installed Java plugin 1.4.0, and the problem does not reproduce with this
release.

Comment 7

[Joe Chou]

Reporter, could you try a later version of JRE (i.e., JRE1.4.1rc from
java.sun.com/j2se), and see what happens?

Comment 8

[Joe Chou]

Also, reporter, it looks like you are running the French version, could you also
try the English version and see the problem still exists?

Confirming crash with http://bioengineering.org .

No problem when commenting <applet> tag :

[Eric Pailleau]

I installed :

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.0-b92

It crash also, but I think I have found the problem :

Do not copy the plug-in in
jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so

use a symbolic link instead and it works !
ln -s ${J2SDK}/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so
/usr/local/mozilla/plugins/libjava.so

I can use now the URL http://www.net-up.com

Comment 14

[Bryce Mozilla Nesbitt]

Confirming solution: Replace the file with a softlink to the exact
same file, and the crash goes away.

Comment 15

[Joe Chou]

Actually, "ns610" (as in ".../ns610/javaplugin_oji.so") is meant for Forte
compiled JRE, which should be run with Forte compiled mozilla/netscape. The one
under "ns600" should be used, which is gcc compiled.

Marking WFM.

Comment 17

[Bryce Mozilla Nesbitt]

I used:
/usr/java/jre1.3.1_03/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so

This bug should be REOPENED.

Just because we found a manual workaround does not mean it is fixed!

Comment 18

[Phil Schwartau]

I feel embarassed for not recognizing these symptoms earlier here.
Actually, this problem has been release-noted for some time now:

  http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.1/#java

The need for a soft link to the Java plug-in may already be on file
as another bug, perhaps? 

Comment 19

[Bryce Mozilla Nesbitt]

Still: Mozilla's reaction to the file should be to die with grace,
not die with prejudice

Comment 20

[David Bradley]

Is this an issue with Mozilla or the Java VM. I've been looking at other
problems where the VM decided things were so bad that terminating the process
was in order. Unfortunately this circumvents talkback. Don't know for sure if
that's happening in this case or not.

Comment 21

[Phil Schwartau]

Note Bryce has filed a bug on the Talkback issue:

bug 167778 
"Talkback fails to activate on INTERNAL ERROR Exec of 'java_vm' failed: 2"

Comment 24

[Jørgen Nørgaard]

Happened also on www.skandiabanken.dk. Choose "Netbank" from the top bar, then
choose "Log på Netbank".

After the dialog to state that https is being used, mozilla exits abruptly with
this text in the terminal window (that started it):

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Exec of "java_vm" failed: 2
