Description Sven Jacobs 2003-09-10 11:21:43 UTC 
After updating to sun-jdk-1.4.2.01 Mozilla as well as Firebird did not start
anymore. Mozilla quit right after loading without any error message, Firebird
crashed with:

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?

System error?:: Success


The symbolic link to the java plugin in /usr/lib/mozilla is wrong! It points to
/opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so but SHOULD
point to /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so. 

Fix:

1. login as root
2. cd /usr/lib/mozilla
3. rm libjavaplugin_oji.so
4. ln -s /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
libjavaplugin_oji.so

The ebuild should be adjusted!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge rsync
2. update to sun-jdk-1.4.2.01
3. try to start Mozilla 1.4 or Firebird 0.6.1

Actual Results:  
they crash

Expected Results:  
they should load

Comment 1 Sven Jacobs 2003-09-10 23:55:20 UTC 
Meant /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins instead of /usr/lib/mozilla
Comment 2 Adrian Almenar 2003-09-11 22:06:50 UTC 
The problem exactly appeared when you updated to GCC 3.3.1. 
 
Also the JDK ebuild had a bug that was only checking '= gcc 3.2*' 
 
Commited to portage. 
 
To fix your install: 
1.- Remove the symlink you made. 
2.- emerge -C sun-jdk 
3.- emerge sun-jdk 
 
Thanks
