I can't get java applets to run in Firefox.
We are using centos 5.3, firefox 3.0.11. Java version 1.6.0_24 is installed.
java version "1.6.0_24" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_24-b07) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.1-b02, mixed mode)
I know there has been allot written about this issue. I did look and there is no jre plug in installed for Firefox.
I tried to reinstall java and this did not work either.
Any ideas?

Java: To enable java, download and install the appropriate version for your architecture here. http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=www.java.com . For i386: Navigate to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and create ln -s to /usr/java/jre*/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so. For x86_64: Navigate to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins and ln -s to /usr/lib/java/jre*/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so. Works for me. HTH.
