Netscape6 is not starting

[Peter Schmidt_1]

When I start netscape I get this error message:

Registering plugin 20 for: "application/x-java-bean;jpi-version=1.3.1","Java(tm) Plug-in",""
Registering plugin 0 for: "*","All types",".*"
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't find path for shared library: libjava.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from browser
System error?:: Operation would block
bbnx0182:/home/peter $


I put the path for libjava.sl in /etc/SHLIB_PATH, but I get the same error.

Can someone help me?

Thanks

Hi,

run chatr with the file dld.sl and see with kind of shared libraries use it.

[Peter Schmidt_1]

I did a chatr -s dld.sl

bbnx0182:/usr/lib $ chatr -s dld.sl
chatr(warning): dl_header_ext.size != sizeof(dl_header_ext). Please update your version of
the linker.
bbnx0182:/usr/lib $

Instead of putting the path in /etc/SHLIB_PATH, can you try setting the SHLIB_PATH environment variable:

$ SHLIB_PATH=:$SHLIB_PATH
$ export SHLIB_PATH

To enable SHLIB_PATH lookup you need to run chatr on the netscape executable:

$ chatr +s enable netscape

Hi,

Have you installed the java 1.3.1 and the java plugin needed to run Netscape 6.1?
------------------------
Netscape 6, unlike Communicator 4.7x, does not come with a bundled Java Runtime Environment. All implementations of Netscape 6 depend on the native JRE for the platform on which it runs. Netscape 6 for HP-UX requires the use of version 1.3.1 of the Java Runtime Environment and Java Plug-in.

-----------------------------------
Have you installed the suggested patches?:

Perhaps you have followed the steps above but I don??t know how much do you know about this. All the URL??s are taking from this:

I hope this help,
