Firefox on linux gets confused when both 32bit and 64bit plugins are found

On a CentOS6 machines, 32bit plugins get installed to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and 64bit plugins get installed /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins. If both locations have the same plugin installed, such as libflashplayer.so, then 64bit firefox seems to randomly find one first and fail when it sees the 32bit version first. This results in Flash working for some users and not for others .
I can run "strings -a ~/.mozilla/firefox/*/pluginreg.dat | grep usr.lib" and see which users will have it fail because the 32bit path to libflashplayer.so is listed first for them. For the users where it works the 64bit version in /usr/ilb64 is listed first.
I see no way to make 64bit firefox ignore what is in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins as this seems hardcoded into the binary. I also see no way to make the /usr/lib64 path take precedence as I have MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped
The output I see on the stderr is:
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so [/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32]
[8941] WARNING: pipe error (60): Connection reset by peer: file /builds/slave/rel-m-rel-l64_bld-000000000000/build/ipc/chromium/src/chrome/common/ipc_channel_posix.cc, line 450
repeated many times
It seems to me at least that plugins in a user set MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH should always take precedence over those in a hard coded path like /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

HI paulraines68,
This may be a question that is beyond the user support of this forum. There are channels I can point you to for feedback or how to submit a bug for this [bugzilla.mozilla.org].

  • TNS Timeout Error with both 32bit and 64bit drivers installed

    I have a server running WIndows 2008 64bit and SQL Server 2012 64bit. I have both the 32bit and 64bit Oracle ODBC drivers installed. 32bit is for SSIS and SSRS uses 64bit. I have an ODBC connection setup for both the 32bit and 64bit. I have the datasources setup for the 64bit and when I test it it works. When I go to run a query I get TNS timeout errors. Any ideas?

    Thank you very much, Curt!
    It's right: When the 64bit version is running, then the PSDs will be opened by this.
    But the configuration under "Bridge Edit/preferences/file type assoiciatons" has the same result as under the "Windows/Systemcontrol/Standardprograms": Never they show the name "Adobe Photoshop.exe (64bit)" - only "Adobe Photoshop.exe" In both cases (Bridge and systemcontrol) I have the possibility to choose the "right" Photoshop.exe by going to the right file (32bit OR 64bit), but the name of the .exe is ever the same: Only "Adobe Photoshop.exe". There is no difference.
    And so even if the 64bit version is preferred (in Bridge), the PSD-files will be opened in the 32bit-version, when no one of both versions is running.
    But - so or so - you have given me a way to solve my basic-problem!
    And when I find the time for experiments, I will show what happens, when I rename the 64bit-exe to "Adobe Photoshop64.exe" to get two different filenames for Photoshop in the Windows-System. (I'm not shure if this will function: When in the Photoshop-System are intrinsic lnks/references to "Photoshop.exe", then I will have no success! Therefore I have to make a HDD-Clone with the whole Windows-System, all Apps and my Working-data before I try to rename. Perhaps there is "no way back to the activation" after renaming the .exe ...
    Thank you and kind regards,

  • Windows 7 64-bit and need to install both 32bit and 64bit Oracle 11g client

    Hello
    First I am sorry for asking what is probably a common knowledge answer from most in the forum. I just cannot find a straight forward answer searching these forums or via google.
    We have Windows 7 64-bit planned as our next desktop upgrade. We have several Oracle databases, and all of the client software in our environment is 32 bit.
    I want to try and be ahead of the curve so I want to deploy the latest 64-bit 11g client instead of our current client (10g 32bit).
    The simple question is this: Can we actually do that with our 32bit application suite or do I need to install the 32bit client for 32bit applications side-by-side with the 64bit 11g Oracle client for future 64-bit clients?
    For a follow up to that, if I do, then does anyone have good instructions on that? I found one article on this but it seemed custom and made use of the mklink command, so I have my doubts this is correct.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the tip. What I wonder though is should I do that or does the 64-bit client have a 32-bit layer that works with 32-bit applications or, am I forced to still deploy a 32-bit client because of my 32-bit software?
    Thanks

  • TS3988 Hi both myself and my wife are on the same account so we receive each others contacts and I messages. How can I get my wife a separate I'D but keep her on the account so she can still purchase items on the account thanks Gary Eveling

    Hi. Both myself and my wife are on the same account meaning same credit card. The problem with this is we both receive each others contacts and see each others I messages.
    How can my wife have a different name so we are separate on such things as contacts and I message but she can still purchase items on the account.
    Many thanks

    You entered your wife's seperate AppleID? Check you can login with the same AppleID here: http://appleid.apple.com/ on a computer.
    Some of the photos in that link apply to setting up iCloud on a device from new, not when setting it up later. It won't look the same (the dark gray background) for you as you're setting it up now.

  • Just bought an ipad2 for my wife and d display is not as sharp as mine and it gets warm when in use and mine does not. Mine is 32gb and hers is 16gb

    Just bought an ipad2 for my wife and d display is not as sharp as mine and it gets warm when in use and mine does not. Mine is 32gb and hers is 16gb

    Bunzez-
    I agree.  Mine is 64gb, and the most warmth I notice seems to be where I was holding it.
    The result of excess heat would be that its battery would run down faster than it should.  With a full charge, it should run at least eight hours, maybe ten.  Someone mentioned that their iPad charge went down ten percent per hour.
    The iPad normally stays on all the time, and is put to sleep by pressing the Sleep button.  In the sleep mode, it draws extremely low current, so the battery does not run down for many days.  With yours in the sleep mode, does it still get hot?
    Regardless, I think the display problem is reason enough to take it to the Apple Store Genius.  If there is no Apple Store near you, look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center.  There may be one in your city.  In the US, <United States>.  Outside the US, <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1434>.

  • Does iTunes come with 32bit and 64bit install?

    I have Windows 7 and it's a 32bit and 64bit Gaming Laptop G73SW.
    I've done all the troubleshoot tips, which has just made my computer worse.eg all icons changed, things now missing, so probably have to do a System Retore to get it all back.
    Every time i speak to Apple,  they're suggestions just make my computer stuffed, iTunes takes over all my programs etc.
    Simply put: Does iTunes come with a 32bit and 64bit Install??? If not i won't be using that program.
    Which makes it hard for my line of work atm as an Alpha and Beta Games Tester for many Private Platforms i play on.

    Well genius, it's either a 32bit or 64bit system, it cannot be both.

  • Installing PS CS5.1 32bit and 64bit

    I accepted the defaults while installing photoshop and it seems 2 versions installed?  Do I need both the 32bit and 64bit versions on Windows 7 64bit ?  Also, when I look at installed programs it only indicates Photoshop CS5 without any 32bit or 64bit designation.  What is necessary here.  Are there bugs with the 64bit version like MS Office so the 32 bit version installs also? 
    thanks
    Milton

    Both 32 and 64 bit variants are provided in case you have plug-ins or drivers that only work with one.  For example, older plug-ins are generally 32 bit only, and there are no 64 bit TWAIN drivers.
    64 bit Photoshop will allow you access to your entire memory space, in excess of 2 GB, while 32 bit Photoshop will be limited.
    Advice:  Keep 'em both, use 64 bit primarily, and use the 32 bit version if/when you have to.

  • Regarding 32bit and 64bit libraries

    Hi,
    Can any one please clarify my quries below.
    1) What is the difference between 32bit and 64bit library.
    2) How to identify the 32bit and 64bit library? Is there any naming convention fallowed?
    3) From which version onwards of Sun Studio, 64 bit libraries are supported?
    Regards,
    Vignesh

    The platforms suppported by Sun compilers have both 32-bit and 64-bit modes of operation. The two modes cannot be mixed in a single program. A 64-bit platform can run 32-bit code, but not the other way around.
    On the supported platforms, 32-bit mode is known a ILP32, meaning that types int, long, and pointer are all 32 bits. 64-bit mode is known as LP64, meaning that type int is still 32 bits, but types long and pointer are 64 bits. (Other systems, not supported by Sun compilers, can have different definitions.)
    The 64-bit mode of the processors supports different instruction sets. The amd64 processor also has different register sets. The layout of objects is different in the two modes, and the way functions are called is different. (There are other differences as well.)
    A program compiled in 32-bit mode must link to 32-bit libraries, not 64-bit libraries, for reasons which I hope are now obvious. A program compiled in 64-bit mode must link to 64-bit libraries.
    The Sun compilers automatically link to the right library version of system libraries, as long as you use consistent options when compiling and linking. For example, you could build a 64-bit sparc program this way:   CC -xarch=v9 -c f1.cc
      CC -xarch=v9 -c f2.cc
      CC -xarch=v9 f1.o f2.o -o myprog The 64-bit version of the various system runtime libraries will be linked automatically, given the -xarch=v9 option on each command line.
    If you create both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of a library of your own, you must arrange to name them differently or put them in different subdirectories. If you give them the same name and put them in differrent subdirectories (which is the convention for system libraries on Solaris), you can use different -L options at link time to point to the right directory.
    You can use the Solaris "file" command to find out whether a program or library is 32-bit or 64-bit.`
    Example, this time on a Solaris Opteron system:
    % file /usr/lib/libCrun.so.1
    /usr/lib/libCrun.so.1: ELF 32-bit LSB dynamic lib 80386 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available
    78% file /usr/lib/amd64/libCrun.so.1
    /usr/lib/amd64/libCrun.so.1: ELF 64-bit LSB dynamic lib AMD64 Version 1 [CMOV], dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available

  • Can 32bit and 64bit clients coexist?

    Hello folks,
    I have a Windows Server 2003 64bit machine running Websphere 6.0 Express (32bit). Additionally it's running a custom 64bit application. Both apps need to connect to separate 10g databases. Can the 32bit and 64bit Oracle client installs coexist on this machine?
    Thanks for any advice!
    -Sangamon

    To clarify, Websphere needs a 32bit JDBC driver, our custom application needs a 64bit ODBC driver. I've got Websphere working, but I'm having trouble getting the ODBC driver to work. I'm wondering if there's a problem with having 2 clients installed.
