Java console doesn't open from Firefox 3 with jre 6u10

OS: XP SP3
JRE: 1.6.0_10-b33
Browser: Firefox 3.0.3
Confirmed on a new profile, when Tools->Java Console is clicked, no console and the menu item becomes disabled

Thanks for reporting the issue.
In 6u10, the New Java Plug-In design has detached itself from a browser process which provides a more robust and enhanced experience. Developers can launch and configure their VM settings through an Applet. As a result, there is very little association between a browser process and Java runtime environment running Applets. In addition, with the new capabilities of the New Java Plug-In, there are more chances multiple VMs are launched within a web page. Therefore, it is no longer useful to launch Java Console via the browser menu as that will cause more confusion.

for more info.
I have submitted a bug reoprt, however. Thanks to your report, I realize the behavior on XP and Vista is different. XP does not open JC, but Vista does open JC. I have submitted a bug for this issue. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6760484

  • Mail doesn't open from dock

    mail doesn't open from dock, after I installed mavericks. Is that a "feature"?

    Great news, in that case this is user a specific issue which we should be able to resolve by moving one plist.
    *Note read the instructions carefully and ask quesitons if you don't understand something.
    First > Create a folder on your desktop so we can backup the plist that we removing that was it can be put back if anything...  Call it Dock Plist
    Second > Open a Finder windows > up on the menu bar click on "Go" > Hold the option key on your keyboard and you should see Library come up click on it... This will place you inside your user specific Library folder aka ~/Library...
    Third > Go into Preferences folder > locate a file called com.apple.dock.plist and drap/drop into the folder you created on the desktop
    Fourth > Click on the Apple (top left) > Logout...  Log back and test it.  The system automatically creates a new com.apple.dock.plist with no settings so your dock will go back to default, test mail and see if that resolves the issue.

    Hi stork38,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like the application is having an issue burning the CD.
    I would suggest you Force Quit iTunes, eject the disc and then open iTunes again.
    Then try burning again with a different CD.

  • Multiple problems with Firefox 3.6.6 - Java Console, Flash, PDF & opening

    running Windows XP with Firefox 3.6.6. I just upgraded to 3.6.6 & since then have been having multiple problems. 1) 3.6.6 takes a LONG time to load or hangs 2) As recommended Flash plugin updated to Flash 10.1. Subsequently Flash doesn't work. All I get when I use Firefox on any site is the F in a circle that indicates that flash is necessary to display the page. I have no problems with Flash on Google Chrome. 3) Java Console having issues. When 3.6.6 opens it says Java Console must be updated. So I update it. Then when it opens it says it's not supported & needs to be removed. Each time it wants me to restart Firefox to complete the task. If I say restart later cause I'm sick of opening & Closing again & again it pops up every 5-10 minutes & asks again. Please HELP!! 4) PDF files will not open since upgrade to 3.6.6. Having no issues with Google Chrome. It opens in miliseconds & runs everything but I prefer Firefox if it can be gotten to work right. Desperately need help.

    Please respond with a list of all of your Extensions.

    -click "Copy all to Clipboard"
    -paste into your reply
    <u>'''1).'''</u> Please explain "long time to load" in more detail; approximately how long? Hanging when: on startup of Firefox, during use (please list some sites/pages, if so), at shutdown?
    For hanging at exit:
    <u>'''Kill Application'''</u>
    In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the <u>'''Processes'''</u> tab?

    [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
    <u>'''Safe Mode'''</u>
    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.
    <u>'''2).'''</u> Could be caused by a Flash-blocking Extension (the reason for asking for your list of Extensions) or could be in your Firewall or AV/AS application. What Firewall and/or AV/AS applications to you use?
    See: [[Firewalls]]
    <u>'''3).'''</u> Again, the reason for asking for your Extensions. Is it Java Console or Java Deployment Toolkit in the error message. Need version numbers on both of the above. You may have some Java remnants from a prior Java version; Java does not clean-up after itself and we can help you remove some of those remnants, if you will supply the information. See:

  • Java console doesn't launch when starting Java Web Start app from Firefox

    Updated my Linux desktop from RHEL to Fedora 12 with resultant upgrade of Firefox to 3.5.9 and now when I launch our Java Web Start application, no Java console appears. The Java Control Panel still shows "Show Console" as set. My app uses Java 1.5 which I have installed on my desktop.
    What do I do to properly configure my browser/desktop to support use of the Java console?

  • Java Console Doesn't Work/Show Up

    I have been having an issue with the Java Plug-in Control Panel (in WinXP Control Panel) and some applications not appearing when started (ie. the java console, self-written applications, etc.). They come up in a window, but are greyed out. Sometimes the menu items and text boxes will appear when i click on the Console button, but nothing is accessible. I am running Win XP, and have reformatted and reinstalled to try to remedy this problem, but to no avail.
    I tried changing the path under the advanced tab to my java install directory (from the default setting) after installation, but that did not help.
    Any suggestions?

    I seem to be getting the same problem. Whenever I load a Java program, including the Java plug-in in the control panel, the whole window is just grey, and I can't do anything. I have only recently re-formatted and installed. Prior to this it worked, and I'm using the same installation of Java.

  • How to force java console to remain open?

    I'm getting an error which is forcing the java console to close without giving me a chance to view what the error is. Is it possible to somehow force it to remain open?

    check out the trace
    C:\Documents and Settings\your user\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\log\plugin...log
    If that doesn't say enough you can try to activate a full plugin trace:
    To turn the full trace on (windows) you can start the java console, to be found here:
    C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4...\bin\jpicpl32.exe
    In the advanced tab you can fill in something for runtime parameters fill in this:
    -Djavaplugin.trace=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    if you cannot start the java console check here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\userName\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties
    I think for linux this is somewhere in youruserdir/java (hidden directory)
    add or change the following line:
    javaplugin.jre.params=-Djavaplugin.trace\=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option\=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    for 1.5:
    deployment.javapi.jre.1.5.0.args=-Djavaplugin.trace\=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option\=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    The trace is here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\your user\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\log\plugin...log
    I think for linux this is somewhere in youruserdir/java (hidden directory)
    Print out the full trace of the exception:

  • Can't print from firefox with HP Pro 8600

    I just bought an HP Officejet Pro 8600.  I am able to print through Internet Explorer but not Firefox. The printer icon comes on but  It just won't print anything.  I am using Windows XP. 
    My second problem is - I can receive faxes and fax to a person with a separate number from their home number.  But I can't fax to a person who has the same number as their home phone and fax.
    Any help on these 2 issues will be so appreciate!
    This question was solved.

    HI sjane39,
    Here is a support page for troubleshooting printing from Firefox. It appears as though if you can print from IE that your print drivers are installed and working properly. It sounds like a setting in Firefox.
    Let us know if this helps.
    For your fax issue you can run the Fax Diagnostics Test. It will help diagnose and resolve common fax issues.
    Also let us know about this one.
    Good luck.
    If I helped you at all it would be great if you clicked the blue kudos star!
    If I solved your post please mark it as solved to help others.

  • Delivery doesn't open from pick and pack

    Hi,
    In Picked Tab (Pick and Pack Manager) delivery button is active, but when you select a sales order for a specific BP delivery button doesn't open the delivery. Delivery Note can be created in Sales module based on the sales order.
    I assume there is something in the BP or items settings that doesn't allow the delivery to be created through pick and pack manager. Have you encountered this problem?
    Thank you!

    More testing... turning off ad block (and all extensions) did not fix the problem, nor did rebooting or reinstalling iTunes.
    Here are two links to the same app from two different sites. The first works, the second does not.
    Cafeteria Nipponica
    1. http://siteappfeed.getapp.cc/app/550067264 <-- this link opens an itunes.apple.com preview site and opens the app's page in iTunes itself.  Works perfectly.
    2. http://toucharcade.com/link/http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/vi ewSoftware?id=550067264&mt=8   <-- this link goes to a blank page.  When links from this site have worked in the past, however, there was no visible "itunes.apple.com" page - it appeared to go directly to opening the page in iTunes, but may be doing more behind the scenes.

  • I get a "Well this is embarrassing!" message from Firefox with tabs to close & I've already closed all tabs! How do I stop this message?

    This suddenly started & nothing I do seems to make it stop. I had not been opening an unusual number of tabs & the message from Firefox lists 2 tabs that I have repeatedly closed. Please give me a solution in simple language. THANK YOU

    hello, this is currently a problem in firefox when you first close all open firefox windows and then close the application afterwards - the bug should be addressed in a later version of firefox.
    as a workaround in the meanwhile you could close firefox (through firefox > quit) while the browser window is still running or try this: enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.

  • Quicktime doesn't open AVI file with Perian installed

    I have installed Perian but Quicktime X doesn't open AVI files for a week. I have repaired permissions. But Quicktime only plays the AVI file if I reboot the Mac. VLC always plays the file. The AVI codec is XVID. Quicktime doesn't play other formats such as FLV. I have deleted .plist files, com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX.plist. I have found other files(com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX.plist.0GH3f31, com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX.plist.0h9MBzV...) that I deleted also. Any idea? Thanks

    And now ... surprisingly I view AVI files in Quicktime without Perian.
    QT has very limited AVI support (file type and a few older codecs) built in. Most common codecs use by Windows users, however, require the additional support provided by Perian. If the AVI files are now playing in QT without Perian, then simply check the Inspector, Properties, or Info window to see which codecs are in your AVI file and you should be able to tell if they are among those supported "natively" by QT. Also note that this regaining of the ability to play your files may indicate a component conflict of some sort may have existed previously.

  • Java Script doesn't work on Firefox 8?

    I have noticed that (some) Java Script does not work on Firefox 8.0. Is there a correction for this?

    Yep, go back to what works, appears to be the only real solution. But then you'd hardly be able to use Firefox as nothing is going to get fixed there only get broken.
    What does not work is
    # move, and resize of main window not allowed
    # that include wiping out a lot of keyword shortcuts that do that
    # various additional collateral damage

  • Sun Java Console & Applets don't display properly on JRE 1.5.0_05

    Duplicate Post as it was equally relavant to this forum: [http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=666689&tstart=0 ]
    Hi,
    We have a signed applet based application hosted on weblogic server. We are trying to launch the application on IE 6.0, JRE 1.5.0_05.
    When we try to see the Sun Java Console from IE's Tools Menu bar, we don't see any text in the window and also the side bars & buttons ("clear", 'copy", "close") are not rendered properly. Now if we, try to bring the focus to text area of Sun Java Console, and try to select all (Ctrl+A), we only see some text selected, but not what it is. Now if we copy the text onto the notepad, we can see the text.
    Next, when we try to launch the signed applet based application, we get the security warning, where only we can see the dialogue box and not the text or buttons. By randomly clicking on this security dialogue, if we hit on yes, the Applet based application is launched. The UI is totally off color; either you see some widgets on application partially or totally blackened or in different colors. Application basically looks to be in chaos.
    This behavior is not observed in any of the previous JRE versions, i.e. JRE 1.5.0_04 or any previous versions. Interesting part is after uninstalling JRE 1.5.0_05, if we install 1.5.0_04; problem persists, but not in JRE 1.4.
    We have observed the same behavior on number of machines. Is it a known issue? What�s the reason & solution?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Vinayak

    When we try to see the Sun Java Console from IE's
    Tools Menu bar, we don't see any text in the window
    and also the side bars & buttons ("clear", 'copy",
    "close") are not rendered properly. I suspect you're running into graphics issues. Perhaps java5 is trying to optimize too much, and you have older or buggy Windows drivers.
    Try:
    * getting the latest graphics drivers for your hardware from your vendor and installing them.
    If that doesn't work, try
    * putting options like "-Dsun.java2d.noddraw" in the Java Control Panel as the default VM options for your Java.
    That's actually a bit aggressive - you can start with, say, "-Dsun.java2d.d3d=false" or "-Dsun.java2d.ddoffscreen=false" (each of these is less drastic than noddraw).
    Then make sure you quit all IEs, and restart one.
