Hi All: I am attempting to install RHEL 5.3 on an HP DL360 G5 system and it seems like every time I turn around I am encountering conflicts and I have not even got to the point where I will be installing our application software (which is where I thought I would have problems). Now to the problem at hand... I was attempting to install the Lexmark MarkVision for Linux software but it refused to recognize the Java that came with 5.3. I then uninstalled the Java and downloaded Sun's JRE 6 Update 12 (specifically jre-6u12-linux.i586.rpm.bin) and started installing it. It appears to install fine until I get to the point where I am supposed to install the Firefox (version 3.0.7) plugin. The target directory for libjavaplugin_oji.so (/usr/lib/firefox-3.0.7/plugins) did not exist so I created it and installed the symlink and then installed the extension files. Java works from the command line but the Java console does not appear in the Firefox tools menu nor does Firefox pass the Sun Java test web page. After much goolge searching with very little results I have tried installing the .so symlink in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins but that did not work either. I do not really need Firefox to work as this will box will be a web server (if I ever get it finished) but it bugs the heck out of me when I can not get things to install correctly. Of course, I am also wondering things like: if this does not work what else is not working. So my questions are: 1. Has anyone else encountered this and what did you do to get it working (assuming you did get it working)? 2. Failing that, does anyone have suggestions on what I can try next?
