Running an applet in Linux?

Question

I did a voice recorder applet and deployed in Apache Tomcat server.

In Windows I tested the URL (http://localhost/Sound.html) in Firefox and IE; it's working fine.

But the same applet is not loaded in Safari browser in Linux.

I have signed the applet too. What might I be doing wrong?

Answer 1

• What version of what Linux distribution are you using?
• What version of what browser are you using on Linux? Does that browser support Java?
• Do you have Java installed on Linux?
• Do you have a Java browser plug-in installed on Linux?

If you are using Ubuntu and Firefox, then install Sun Java 6 by installing the package sun-java6-plugin using Synaptic or from the command line:

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
