Opera & IBM-jdk-bin-1.5 [solved]

Hello everybody!

I'm using ibm-jdk-bin-1.5_beta1 on my ppc based system.
It's working fine with Firefox.

When I try to use Opera on webpages with java contents, Opera crashes immediately, and creates a ~325MB(!) program crash data file.

The output in a console is look like this:

Seems like missing something. The same webpage with Firefox is working without problem.
In Opera's setup I have set Java directory to: /opt/ibm-jdk-bin-1.5_beta1/jre/bin; which Opera accepted.

I have this kind of problem since newer Opera (from 8.5). Changing to older ibm-java has the same result.

Any idea? Maybe my settings are wrong?

Hi,

First the ibm-jdk-bin-1.5 has come out of beta and you should be
able to download the final version. Not sure that is the cause of your
problem though. It may be related to the following bug:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117356
I have installed that version of java and I have both firefox and opera
can you give the web address in question so I and maybe other can
test it?

Cheers,
Francois

Hello there!

Here is a link to one site:
http://bkv.hu/home/index.html
It's java part shall be in the left side square (left to the yellow tram, scrolling text)
It is hungarian, and has some Java. It is Budapest's transportation company website.
But I guess the problem is not with the site. So far no website was working with Opera + java...

I'll try the new 1.5 and report back.

Thank you for the help!

P.S. I just checked with the test page of www.java.com. Same result...

I tried and got and the same result as you. It works in firefox but not in opera.
Got an error message strikingly similar and opera crashes. I suspect the problem
is on the opera side. I may try to switch back to java 1.4.2 and test again.

Opera wll not work with ibm-jdk 1.5. Opera has no problem using a non-system jvm. If you download 1.4.2 and place it somewhere, just point opera toward it.

Ok.

I have tried both the newer (1.5) and the older (1.4) but none of them were working. Same result whit that ~320MB file/crash...

Anyway. I use Firefox then. Or Konqueror, which seems working also nicely. I just liked to use Opera before.

Thank you for your help!

I gave another try with Opera 8.52 (the new one), but this one dont even let me enable java....
I turn the option on, (then click ok), then restart the browser and the setting for enabling java is off again...

Using ibm-jdk-bin-1.4.2.03 as default JVM and points Opera to it, the problem has solved 99%. Only my bank account does not work with it, but it's not Opera's or Linux's problem. It supports Sun's Java 100%... Which is not exist on PPC... Yet...
