Linux Error: “icedteanp plug in error” and “rerun Firefox-g” always appears

Asked By Deidra Gibbs 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/26/2011

I’m using Titanium on Ubuntu Lucid Linux 32-bit, whenever I open it I always find error. The error says that: “icedteanp plug in error: Failed to run/etc/alternatives/../../bin/java.” And a command “rerun Firefox-g” always appears. If I end it the application opens but the color of the background is a mess. What must be the very failure of it and what are the possible solutions? Please help me find ways to solve it.

Hi Deidra Gibbs

In order to address this common issue, you have to ensure that you have the Latest JAVA Pluin

Now write the commands provided here:

·         sudo aptitude remove openjdk-6-jre icedtea6-plugin

·         sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts

·         sudo ln -s /usr/bin/java /bin/java

The error message point to a directory that has Firefox as the root application in it, and there it is possible that you may have installed the Firefox browser but then you did not do it well and therefore causing the operating system to malfunction.. I will suggest that you try the following:

• Locate the Firefox program that you have installed on your system that is causing problems and then uninstall it completely.
• You will need to get another Firefox application in case you need to use it, and this time you will have to make sure that you use the right procedure and the right commands in the terminal when installing it so that it will not affect the operating system as it is doing right now.
