It is already configured: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# eselect java-nsplugin list |
| 20 |

It seems that Midori is not seeing the Java plugin and the test page |
| 31 |
. I am getting the following when testing for the Java plugin: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
% ls -l /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins |
| 34 |
total 18840 |
| 35 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 67 Dec 31 2014 javaplugin.so -> //usr/share/java-config-2/nsplugin/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8-javaplugin.so |

% MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins midori http://javatester.org/version.html |
| 40 |

ERROR: Didn't find JVM under /usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins |

| 43 |
|

|
| 45 |
Also, loading the page |
| 46 |
https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/is-java-installed in Midori shows |
| 47 |
that the Java plugin is disabled. |
| 48 |
|

| 50 |
Any more clues? |

Yes, it works with Firefox. But first it may be necessary to give |
| 58 |
permissions to execute Java applications from the site of interest. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
After running the Java Control Panel (jcontrol) and adding the site |
| 61 |
http://javatester.org/ to the exception site list (in the Security tab), |
| 62 |
the plugin is correctly detected, as can be seen in the attached image. |
