[Bug 600158] Re: After upgrading to firefox 3.6 java plugin and flash plugin do not work

[Marcus Walther]

I can also confirm these issues. The flash 9.x plug-in was still listed
at about:plug-ins, but did not work at all (but I got no "crashed"
note).

I got Flash working by performing these steps:

1. Purged every flash related package (*flash*, *gnash*, ...)
2. Cleaned manually all remains (find /usr/lib/ -name flashplugin-alternative.so | xargs sudo rm)
3. Cleaned my ~/.mozilla/plugin/ directory.
4. Installed fresh Flash 10 .deb from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

The Java issue remains. The plug-ins are not listed at about:plugins

I even reinstalled sun-java6-plugin and the files seem to be installed
correctly:

# find /usr/lib/ -name '*java*so'
/usr/lib/xulrunner/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/kde3/kjavaappletviewer.so
/usr/lib/midbrowser/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/iceape/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_nscp_gcc29.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_nscp.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/jre/plugin/i386/ns7-gcc29/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so

But Firefox does not recognize the plug-in. Any suggestions?
