Then shut down firefox, and re-run it. Here's what I did, with jre in /opt [root@iam opt]# cd /usr/lib/firefox-2.0/plugins/ [root@iam plugins]# ln-s /opt/jre1.5.0_09/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so libjavaplugin_oji.so [root@iam plugins]# cd /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.13/plugins/ [root@iam plugins]# ln -s /opt/jre1.5.0_09/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so libjavaplugin_oji.so [root@iam plugins]# cd ~/.mozilla/plugins/ [root@iam plugins]# ln -s /opt/jre1.5.0_09/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so libjavaplugin_oji.so This is using the jre1.5.0_09 bin. release, where I put the .bin file in /opt/ and executed it. That's all I have done to make it work. Did similar with flash only I copied the file to those locations. java.com is happy with my installation as well. Of course something will yum in, in the middle of the night, and it will blow up again.
