Java Plugin Won't Run!!! HELP!!!!

I installed 1.4 and it wouldn't run any of swing applets, so I uninstalled it, now I get
Java Plug-in 1.4 Fatal Error
Java Plug-in 1.3.1_01 cannot be located because values in the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java Plug-in/1.3.1_01 is not found or is no longer valid.
I have uninstalled ALL versions of the runtime and sdk and installed the 1.3.1_03. I STILL get the same error. I have searched through the registry and can not find any references to the 1.4. WHERE IS IT GETTING THAT, and how in the @*%& do I fix my machine!!!
HELP!!!!!
please email me at [email protected]

This problem afflicted Firefox for me. I have JDK 1.3.1, J2SDK 1.4.2 and JDK 1.5.0 installed on my machine.
I had recently installed the Oracle Enterprise Manager Console, and the issue started up after that install (thank you Oracle for adding your JRE references to the beginning of my Path Environment Variable).
As recommended by the previous two responses, I removed the Oracle JRE entry (C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin) from my Path Environment Variable and the problem has gone away (I also removed the C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.8\bin entry for sanity's sake).
I add this reply at this late date so that Googling the issue will also reference Firefox, since all previous articles that I've found only reference IE.

  • Java Plugin won't work in Netscape 7.1

    I'm using Windows XP Home with Netscape 7.1, and the Java plugin won't work.
    Java Plug-in 1.4.2_05 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper) is listed 7 times in Help>About:Plugins;
    The Java Plugin works in Internet Explorer (I use the Test Java Virtual Machine to determine this). With Netscape, I just get the "Click here to get the plugin" window, and believe me, I've clicked here many times, and gone through the installation process, and it still doesn't work. I've uninstalled Java, rebooted, and installed it with the browsers closed, and it still doesn't work. Everything else in Netscape seems to be working properly.
    Under Edit>Preferences>Advanced in Netscape I have "Enable Java" checked.
    I posted this problem in the Windows-BBS Netscape and Mozilla forum, http://www.windowsbbs.com/showthread.php?t=33994, and tried everything suggested there, but it still didn't work.
    Anybody have any suggestions?

    I was facing a similar problem. I think the problem is with different versions of JRE. For example, I was trying to associate with Netscape the JRE version of 1.4.2_01 without any success. But on associating jdk version 1.4.2_05, it started working fine.

  • Java applets won't run on Safari???

    I have reinstalled Java twice, and it still won't run any Java applets. It just sits there with the cup logo and the arrow on either side. It works fine on Firefox but not Safari. Help?

    Hello
    I'm piggy backing on this thread because I too have had problems with Java and Safari
    Java runs fine for me in Firefox, however.
    I went to a federal website
    https://blrscr3.egs-seg.gc.ca/gol-ged/gov/browserdetection/BrowserCheck.html
    that uses java and received this message
    " Java applet unable to load
    To use this service, you must either install a recent version of the Sun JVM or enable "Scripting of Java applets" if it has been disabled."
    so i looked for an update and have downloaded and installed release 6, (at least, it said that it was installed, but have never been able to figure out where)
    when I check Java preferences, the choices are J2SE 1.4.2 or J2SE 5, and when I've switched to 1.4.2 I still have no luck.
    When i run firefox, i get the java console opening, but it doesn't open with safari, and I can't find the option for this to turn on in safari
    i have restarted both safari and my computer and no luck. I have repaired permissions and no changes have taken place.
    Any more suggestions?
    (thank you, by the way)

  • APP-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix 4 - Java plugin the non run virtual approach

    Morning All
    I am currently investigating an issue with APP-V 5.0 SP2 and our internet explorer plugins, until recently we were running our internet explorer plugins via the run virtual key on our windows 7 X64 environment, however when running the run virtual we
    did notice a side effect of this when trying to open office documents, where a document would take anywhere between 60-300 seconds to open with the run virtual key in place, once removed documents would open between 1-5 seconds.
    Current Environment
    Windows 7 X64
    APP-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix 5
    Microsoft Office 2003 Standard and Professional: APP-V
    Microsoft Office 2007 Standard and Professional: APP-V

    Hello,
    Old issue with the App-V 4.6 client is described here;

  • Installed JDK but Java applets won't run in browsers

    My system: Windows7 x64 (fresh install - so no previous JRE's or JDK's), Firefox 15.0.1 and IE9
    I downloaded this: jdk-7u7-windows-x64.exe
    From this page: [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7u7-downloads-1836413.html]
    I installed the JDK as per instructions on this page: [http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/webnotes/install/windows/jdk-installation-windows.html]
    I updated the PATH environment variable to include: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\bin
    I restarted the computer.
    I checked cmd for java -version, it reports: java version "1.7.0_07" java SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_07-b11) etc...
    I tried to view applets in Firefox and IE and they both report that I have to download the Java plugin.
    IN Firefox I click "Install plugin" and it looks like it's installing, but then it fails. It then gives me an option to install it manually (which is a link to the Oracle JRE download page.
    I did not try that last option because I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO, Oracle's page clearly states [http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/webnotes/install/index.html] that the JDK INCLUDES the JRE.
    "... If you want to develop Java applications, download the Java Development Kit, or JDK. *The JDK includes the JRE, so you do not have to download both separately.*"
    Also, it the latest JDK is supposed to come with JavaFX development capabilities, but I don't see JavaFX stuff in any of the Java folders.

    Hi,
    You might want to look in your control panel for 'Java' icon. It should give you an option to enable java plugin into your browser. Let me know if you still face the issue.
    Thanks!

    I'm a developer I just bought a new laptop running Windows 7 Professional Service pack 1. I downloaded Firefox 11.0 and downloaded and installed the Adobe Flash plugin! I’ve tried just about everything to get the plugin working but Firefox tells me I have an old version and has turned it off for security reasons. I have included the Flash registry settings and the Flash install log. Dell install a version of flash but it looks like the ActiveX not the Plugin Dll. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and Flash many times it still won’t work. Firefox is no good to me without this plugin. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Downloaded Dashboard Widgets won't run, Help.

    Can't figure this one out. Widgets that come with Leopard run fine. Any I download won't launch. I have 4 user accounts, all have same problem. I created a new user account and the downloaded widgets works fine.
    So, not sure what happened but all users created prior to a certain point don't work, any new users now seem fine. Anyone else seen this? Any ideas on how to resolve?

    Most of the widgets in Dashboard weren't working for me. So far as I am aware, this problem started when I tried to add new third-party widgets (downloaded through Apple-Downloads) after upgrading from Tiger to Leopard.
    This is what got things working again -- and was much easier than an archive and install:
    1. I took a screen shot (command-shift-3) with dashboard open to make a record of widget placement.
    2. I disabled dashboard with DashboardSwitch (http://braintrigger.com/software/DashboardSwitch).
         (It might be that a restart would have done the same thing -- but for me this was easier.)
    3. I removed all plists with the word "dashboard" or "widget" in its name from User/Library/Preferences, and left them in a folder on my desktop.
    4. I enabled Dashboard with DashboardSwitch. (I believe it's the case that if you use this program to disable Dashboard, you cannot start Dashboard though the Dock until it's been enabled again with DashboardSwitch.)
         (For those who simply restarted in step 2, I'm guessing all you'd have to do at this stage is to open Dashboard normally.)
    5. With the old preferences removed, Dashboard loaded with only the default widgets open. I clicked the plus symbol, removed those I didn't want to keep, and began adding back widgets, starting with ones originally supplied by Apple, and waiting after each one to be sure it was working. If something didn't work, I removed it and went on.
    6. When I was done, only two widgets still wouldn't work.  It turned out both were only designed for Tiger, specifically, and not for Leopard. One I updated -- after which, it worked fine.  The other had no update for Leopard, so I had to replace it with something similar.  
    7. I reset preferences on the flip side of my widgets, then used the screen shot I took in step 1 as a guide for putting things back in place. (Yes, that's finicky -- but I liked them where I had them.)
    8. After I had everything running the way I liked it, I trashed the folder with the old widget and dashboard preferences, which I had left on my desktop.
    Everything's working fine now.  I hope this helps someone else.

    I've already checked that I uploaded everything in binary and that my .class files are intact on the server. In fact I uploaded my files and downloaded them back onto my computer and they run fine. Also I have another applet running smoothly on the same server (which also used to reside on the old server) and it's not having any problems. I have 9 .class files in total and all of them are uploaded. chemlet is the file where execution should start. Any ideas for what to do?
    Thanks in advance.

    Either there is some version problem in applet. or the classfile might have some constant which is not getting referenced properly.
    might be in your chemlet file . use decompiler to open your class file and then check the line number 115 in your chemlet file to see what is the problem there.

    Doesn't make sense to me. Why would a visitor want to close
    your home page? Assuming they do, why can't they just use the

    that's the case, the window.close() won't do that.

  • 9.0 Plugin Won't Run 8.5 Content

    Hello,
    I have developed a Flex Beta 2 application, which of coarse
    is compiled for the 8.5 viewer. The application will not run in the
    9.0 Flash plugin. The 9.0 plugin will run other older content, just
    not mine.
    Any sugestion?
    Thanks

    Yeah, they made it so that for each release you need to
    recompile for the current version. So swf files compiled with Beta
    2 don't run in the Beta 3 environment. You probably need to update
    your code as well to be Beta 3 compliant. The changes are all
    posted in the wiki section of the labs site.

  • Java app won't run after updating JavaApplicationStub

    Before updating to Lion, I had JDiskReport installed.
    After updating to Lion, it says it can't run Power PC app.
    I installed Java, and replaced the JavaApplicationStub in the JDiskReport.app/Contents/MacOS with the Lion version.
    Still when I try to run JDiskReport, Lion tells me it can run a PowerPC app.
    Is there an attribute or something I need to clear so that it will run JDiskReport?

    I also can confirm that replacing JavaApplicationStub from where it's located in Lion: (/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/A/Resources/MacOS/JavaApp licationStub) and copying the file to the package contents of Jdisk report works.

  • Java apps won't run, Java preferences won't launch

    Since the flurry of 2012 updates, Java is completely broken on my Mac Pro.  Java dependent apps don't start and Apple Support says to enable the apps in Java Preferences.
    Nice idea, but Java Preferences WILL NOT LAUNCH either.
    There were plenty of tools to address flashback and they DID NOT break normal day to day operations. 
    I downloaded the package from support to try a reinstallation, but it says "A newer version of Java is already installed" and offers me the option to Close.  No reinstall, nothing.
    Apple support is at it's usual level of service on this issue, completely INVISIBLE.
    What has happened to the Apple I used to know?  If any of the smart folks on this forum have a working solution, please share.  Deleting preferences doesn't do squat btw.
    Thank you.
