Dear All,
Need your help in sorting out problem:-
I recently installed CentOS 5.0 and is working fine. The default browser shipped with it is firefox 1.5.x. This is working okay except in one situation--when I need Java, it say "additional plugins are required".
I downloaded latest Java rpm from Sun's site and installed it. As per instructions with the RPM, i made the appropriate links with in plugin directories. When I go to sun site again to verify that java is installed properly, the required aplet ( as confirmation) does not appaer and the space for it remains blank.
Also I tried to install firefox 2.0.0.9 manually. After untarring the filewhen i run ./firefox, it returns the following error:-
./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I tried to search the libstdc++.so.5 file on the system but the file found was different : libstdc++.so.6.
Thus either way I am stuck up. Please help !!

About mozilla
Try Yum to install it. .
Also try updating liberaries.
Do following :
yum install compat-lib*
-
It worked after updating libraries as yum install compat-lib*.
Thanks a lot, Ricky !!
