I just installed java version 6.22 on IE8, everything is ok. To install the same version on K-meleon do I have to choose the window release, right? Actually I have 6.21 but does not work due to error. Is anybody installed 6.22?

Yes, it is mentioned in the thread about java 6.21.

But I still have an older Java installed. Newer is not always better


For You. Other browsers do not use the IE activeX controll.

You have to activate Java for Mozilla browsers.
I think it is always co-installed with the IE plugin.
But I am not sure since I do not install Java for IE

If not installed by default? Install Mozilla/Netscape support.


After that Java plugins will raise a complaint that K-Meleon is not Firefox

The solution for this is probably delete Java: ./bin/npjp2.dll

It was the solution for java 6.21 anyway.

See the German in the quoted thread

Java: ./bin/npjp2.dll (Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_21) löschen,

löschen = delete.

Deleting seems to have no adverse effect.
The file seems to be redundant or only for Firefox.

Next the German user's answer: ..befolgt und es funzt einwandfrei!

= .. done and it works flawlessly!

You can try with 6_21 and 6_22 else You got to use 6_20.

Java works normally (I tried some simple java demos I found via google and a java-based IRC chat) for me when I delete that weird npjp2.dll ("Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_21 for Mozilla browsers") from bin\new_plugin, but honestly, I have no idea what that plugin does at all and which consequences deleting it might have, but it certainly causes the this is not firefox 3! error.

Confirmation from another user that deleting npjp2.dll (version-21) works fine for him too:

wonderful, thank you so much, I delete plugin npjp2.dll and as per magic tje new release java 6.22 works perfect. thanks again.

Guenter,



Java 6.22 works on my KM 1.5.4, but there is a difference in what I copied over from Java folder. Don't know what Sun/Java did, but I do not remember having to copy all these files over to make Java 6.20 work.

v.6.0.220.4

C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\plugins\npdeployJava1.dll
C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\plugins\npjpi160_22.dll
C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\plugins\npoji610.dll

Absolut. I updated my Java today. These Plugins got precedence when they came to ../K-Meleon/plugin folder. I also though of this solution.

http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?1,108658,111321,page=2#msg-111321

To prevent the error only npoji610.dll (Java(TM) Virtual Machine for Netscape and Mozilla) is needed in K-Meleon/plugin folder - but at first I copied npjpi160_22.dll over also.

If You do not delete the faulty plugin but place npoji610.dll there, Firefox can still use the plugin intended for it. And 1.6 can also use the Firefox plugin when You spoof the fox.

Guenter,

Good to know. My practice is not to do Flash in any other browser than KM... at least for now that is.

Thanks, guys! Just did the update. Secunia startles me nearly every week. ;-)

I have updated java to 6.22 before installing K-Meleon 1.5.4.
As far as I know there are no issues with it on Windows.
