To the you should probably have Iced Tea already installed if you are using FF from the OSS, but should be verified.įor some situations, you may want to install and run Oracle Java instead of using openJdk and Iced Tea, but since that involves more work, should be viewed as "only when necessary." And, although it created a lot of pain at the time it was necessary for security reasons.Īny active projects which still wanted to be used in Firefox re-wrote their plugins to work without using NPAPI and Java is one of them. Just means that plugins created before then and using that very popular API stopped working. NPAPI plugins don't work, but for more than a year now. It seems that, you may have to live with Leap 42.3 and Mozilla Legacy Firefox 45.8.0 until, the Leap 42.3 EOL June 2019.That all happened "long" ago. įirefox Site Compatibility Working Group: " Plug-in support has been dropped other than Flash".
Mozilla: " Why do Java, Silverlight, Adobe Acrobat and other plugins no longer work?". My only other option is to revert back to 42.3.īTW, I have spoken with tech support of the equipment that generates the video and they are working on a new way to display the data in a browser without using the java applet, but it is 6 months out. I was able to get firefox 52 installed and running using a tar-ball from the mozilla site, but java would not run. So I am wondering if I can somehow install an older version of firefox and get java to work with it. I know chrome/chromium will have the same issue, and the gnome browser, while able to run the java applet, has it's own issues - it will not display the data unless the browser is minimized and maximized, at which point it will display the image.
In 42.3 this was no problem but unfortunately it uses a java applet which is now unsupported in firefox 60esr. The headless computer simply runs a browser (firefox) in kiosk mode and displays the output of a webpage generated by a piece of equipment.
Hi all: I have been working on upgrading a headless computer we use to push video out to several TVs in the office (same video is displayed on all TVs).
