you can try linking the original location of libflashplayer.so instead to
/usr/local/mozilla/plugins/ or whever you have the plugin dir.

The error msg and location of the .class file hasn't crashed anything till now
(it's bug 97362). A perhaps related bug is bug 86591, where some see a crash
when both flash and java are installed. Is that the case on your own system?

both java and flash are install on my system, i made some modifications on the
system and now it seems to be working well, but there is always the message
telling that ShockwaveFlash.class have an invalid header.
