When configuring x68_64 Opera to work with java, I pointed it to /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/amd64, which was accepted as a valid JAVA path. However, after quitting and restarting opera, I see this: ===== opera: [java] Disabling java due to potential problems. If you know what you are doing, you can set the environment variable OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED to '1' to override this. Start Opera with '-debugjava' argument for more information. [...] opera: libjvm.so: no se puede abrir el fichero del objeto compartido: No existe el fichero o el directorio ===== So I set OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED to '1' and restarted. After doing so, I was still getting the missing libjvm.so error. A $locate libjvm.so returns this: ===== $ locate libjvm.so /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.11/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.11/lib/i386/server/libjvm.so ===== I noticed the /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/amd64/client/ was missing. So, I created it and made a symlink from /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so to /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/amd64/client/libjvm.so This way I read no java-related errors when launching opera but, when trying to load an applet, I see the white space reserved to it but it never actually loads. So, I think sun-jdk for amd64 is missing the correct ...amd64/client folder. Am I right, or am I missing something? I must say that installing opera with the ia32 flag enabled and pointing JAVA to /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.11/lib/i386/ works. I think the reason is emul-linux-x86-java installs the corresponding ...i386/client folder. Thanks in advance. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
There's no amd64 client JVM simply because it doesn't exist, so we can't install it. Try pointing opera to just "/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.11/" ? Or perhaps it just can't work on amd64.
Thanks for the clarification. I was already afraid of that :( It seems like an opera-for-amd64 problem. BTW, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!!
As far as I know, 64 bit java plugin is Firefox 3 only.
(In reply to comment #3) > As far as I know, 64 bit java plugin is Firefox 3 only. > I don't know how opera works but it's not really related to the this bug. There is no client vm in hotspot for amd64 so closing this as Invalid.
