92631 - Java plugin install either fails or causes Mozilla to lockup on restart

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 84896

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Zacharias J. Beckman]

Installing the Java plugin (http://java.sun.com) causes Mozilla to become
unusable in one of two ways (100% of the time):

1. After installing, any attempt to restart presents a panel stating that " You
must stop mozilla so that a previous installation can finish." This usually
happens several times in a row.

2. Eventually, Mozilla may start working again (sometimes). If so, any attempt
to visit a web site with Java applet on the page will cause Mozilla to lock up.

Reporter: 
#1 this should be a "Installer: XPI Packages" problem (I think I saw already a
bug about that)

#2 Are you using Redheat 7.1? then you hit bug 84093 (there is a workaround in
that bug...)

-> Oji
