Description:

Java applets fail to load in konqueror unsing java-gcj-compat, while they show-up correctly using Sun's jre.

Example: http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath (top-left corner)

Note: this bug is filed against java-gcj-compat, assuming that kde/konqueror is well set.

Am I missing something in terms of confguration?

Thank you.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
java-gcj-compat: 1.0.76-4
kdebase: 3.5.7-2
jre: 6u2-1
* config and/or log files etc.
In konqueror, the java setting is set to /usr/bin/java

Steps to reproduce:
install java-gcj-compat, login/logout (source profiles), start konqueror, load url > fails
install jre6, login/logout (source profiles), start konqueror, load url > works ok

This task depends upon

The java plugin provided by gcj is far from complete. Also, you're trying to wrap the plugin inside konqueror, which has other methods to run java programs. The plugin is provided as-is and I don't see any improvement happening on it either, as Fedora is swithing to the java icedtea (openjdk) project.

Thank you.
Actually, I'm not trying to use the libgcjwebplugin.so plugin. I'm using the standard and direct way Konqueror uses java.
But that does not work either.
Thanks again.
