Major issue with Java plugin for latest firefox versions. Oracle EBS R12 only supports Java 6.0_45 plugin only. And this plugin will supports firefox 3.5 versions only. By default EL6 OS version are come with firefox 45.1 version. So follow the below steps to access Oracle apps from EL6_8 clients.
1. Login as root and to know your fire fox version execute the following command
#rpm -qa |grep 'firefox' or
#firefox -v
Ensure that your firefox version rpm is available in OS dvd or download from website.
2. Download Jdk-6u45-Linux-i586.rpm from Oracle website and also download 'firefox-
3.5.15.tar.bz2' from mozilla website.
3. Copy the files into /opt directory and login as root and execute the following
commands.
# tar xjvf firefox-3.5.15.tar.bz2 // it will create a directory by name firefox
# rm -f /usr/bin/firefox // removes existing firefox laucher
# ln -sf firefox/firefox /usr/bin/firefox //links the firefox launcer to /usr/bin/firefox
# rpm -Uvh jdk-6u45-Linux-i586.rpm //creates a folder in /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_45
# cd ~/.mozilla // changes to firefox home directory by default
# cd plugins // plugins if not exists create a directory
# ln -sf /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_45/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so .
// it links java plugins to firefox
Now close all firefox tabs and restart firefox
Ensure that java plugins are linked by typing about:plugins in url tool bar.
If every thing is OK remove cookies using tools tab in main menu.
Now connect to your application.
Once you are able to open forms in your application log out from the application.
Now remove the default firefox from your machine by using following command
# rpm -e <firefox version>
# rpm -Uvh <firefox versilon>
if necessary allow you application url in pop-up blocks menu
or
if any other solution is available please post with procedure.
