Since I updated to dev-java/icedtea6-bin-1.7 (from 1.6.2-r2), I get a popup dialog when visiting some sites with epithany: gcjwebplugin error: Failed to run /usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin/../../bin/java. For more detail rerun "firefox -g" in a terminal window. In /usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin there's only icedtea6-bin-javaplugin.so, and the line above wants to execute /usr/share/bin/java, which doesn't exist. One site where this happens is http://wissen.dradio.de/. The popup always appears 3 times, and after clicking them away, the problem doesn't occur in that session anymore. And of course, java applets are not working anymore (tested with http://www.javatester.org/). I don't have firefox installed, so I cannot test with "firefox -g".

Is epiphany-2.29.6 from some overlay? FYI, the icedtea6-bin-1.7 uses a new plugin so yes, something changed there. But it works with firefox. I assume the difference is that firefox dereferences the symlink in /usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin/icedtea6-bin-javaplugin.so and epiphany not?
Oh, indeed, it's from the gnome overlay. I think you are right. /usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin/icedtea6-bin-javaplugin.so points to /opt/icedtea6-bin-1.7/jre/lib/amd64/IcedTeaNPPlugin.so, so if it was dereferenced, it would work.
Tassilo: it works now ?
(In reply to comment #3) > Tassilo: it works now ? No, I just mentioned it would work, if epiphany dereferenced that symlink (which it doesn't).
this also happens in uzbl-9999 and 2010.02.02 with webkit-gtk-1.1.21, it works fine with icedtea-1.6.2 but fails with 1.7 the same error box pop's up: "gcjwebplugin error: Failed to run /usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin/../../bin/java. For more detail rerun "firefox -g" in a terminal window." firefox -g gives nothing
I just bumped epiphany-2.29.91 that *should* have officially blessed java plugin support. No idea how it really worked before as it shouldn't have ;)
closing per comment #6. Please reopen if it's still a problem.
