Installing the Java Plug-in on Linux
Java 2 Runtime Environment is required to access several features in the management server, such
as System Manager. If your Web browser is running on Linux, you must manually install the Java
plug-in as described in this section.
To install the Java plug-in:
1. Go to the following URL and download the installation file for the Sun JRE when asked:
http://<management_server>/servlet.html?page=JavaPluginLinux
where <management_server> is the hostname of the management server.
2. In a terminal window, execute the downloaded file in a directory where you want the JRE
installed.
This executable installs the Sun JRE on your computer.
The Java plug-in for your Web browser is available in the following file:
$JRE_HOME/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
where $JRE_HOME is the directory containing the JRE installation.
3. Set the executable permission of the downloaded file:
chmod +x downloaded_file_name
4. In a terminal window, go to the $HOME/.mozilla/plugins directory. Create a plugins
directory if it does not exist.
5. Remove any existing links to the Java plug-in that are in this directory. You may use the
rm libjavaplugin_oji.so command in a terminal window to remove an existing
symbolic link to the Java plug-in.
6. Create a symbolic link to the Java plug-in by using the following command:
ln -s $JRE_HOME/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so .
