Re: Javascript problem Fedora 16

    I do hope someone can help me here.
    I am learning Ruby on Rails.
    It requires javascript to be installed for both Firefox and Chromium
    browsers.
    Following the instructions at
    [1]http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_x64rpm_install.xml
    jre installed,
    made link sudo ln -s
    /usr/java/jre1.6.0_07/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
    /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
    Restarted firefox but it does not find jre.
    I have <Enable Javascript> enabled in preferences.
    Still get  Ruby on Rails ExecJS::RuntimeError.
    Can someone instruct me in what to do to get jre working on firefox and
    Chromium in Fedora 16 please.
    I have also installed as per instructions at:
    [2]http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_x64_install.xml This also
    fails, it appears to be only an upgrade.
    Thanks in advance
    Roger

Hi Roger,

Have you tried using OpenJDK that is available in Fedora? It has a fully
functional Web browser plugin (via icedtea-web package) that works with
Firefox and Chrome out of the box.

What document are you using for install instructions by the way?


Hi Deepak and Reindl
Thanks for the openjdk suggestion. I installed but neither Firefox nor Chromium see it.
I'm still stuck.
Are there any other recommendations I can look into please
Thanks
Roger
