Java help..

[hobo_man]

I keep getting a Red X in the top left corner of a Java applet when I try to run it. It happens with any site that requires Java so work. Also, it says "Loading Java applet failed.." in the bottom left corner. I went to the Java site to get help, but the solution they posted didn't help at all. Please help. Thanks.

Here's the log if it helps any..:

uninstall/reinstall java

[hobo_man]

That was the first thing I tried..after 2 times, still didn't work.

this subject is such a pain in the ***....what i had to do was delete the profile and it worked.....

 

[hobo_man]

I don't understand what you mean by "profile". Do you mean the hardware profile for the OS?

 

[Osiris]

user profile

 

[hobo_man]

Oh ... I see. Crap

Open IE, go to the advanced section under Tools/options. Then look at the Java settings. What do you have listed there and what is checked? If you have both MS JVM and Sun, are both checked? If you only have Sun is it checked? Also, if both are present and checked, uncheck sun and then try it.

another thing to try,
go to %userprofile%
then delete the .java folder there. Go to Application Data, delete the Sun folder.

Then try it again.

good luck

For Java(Sun) I have "JRE 1.5.0_06 Applet" checked. (Only one under Java)
Under Microsoft VM, I have "Java Consoled Enabled" checked.
There's also "Java logging enabled" and "JIT compiler for virtual machine enabled", but they aren't checked.

 

[Inaris]

Uncheck the Sun java and try it out. That is a common problem we see(in my work place) with java problems. When both are checked, they can conflict with each other...

Java since ver 1.4.0_01 uses a direct call to it's version. so if it's not there, then it will fail and request install.

hope that helps...
