#APPLE JAVA PLUGIN WINDOWS#
In windows for example the self-provisioning portal fires up a tab in IE. I don't know who's browser the self provisioning portal fires up since it fires up its own window, not a Firefox or Safari specific one. Therefore Java doesn't run on chrome on this machine in the first place. The chrome instructions on the page are irrelevant because my OS X and hardware are 64-bit and so is Java but not chrome.

I assume this is the same thing as seeing the "disable" button in previous FF versions, indicating that the job applet plug-in is actively running. Under what I believe are the correct settings, the Java applet plug-in for 7.45 is set to "always activate". The self provisioning portal page still says that Java isn't installed :-(įor Firefox, the instructions on that page are out of date too. Then went to another step further and click "run in unsafe mode" for every item in the Java website list and again it made no difference. I went a step further and set it for the three websites listed (that include the provisioning portal domain) to "allow always". Assuming this is where it's at now, moving to the Java plugin in the list, they were already "allow".

In OS X 10.9 there's just the "allow plugins" checkbox and the "manage website settings" button. In Safari, on the preferences security tab, there is no checkbox for "Enable Java" (I think that is a Safari 6.0.4 thing on OS X 10.8 or thereabouts). The instructions on that page also appear to be woefully out of date too. The self-provisioning page seems to be unaware of Java despite everything else. Running other Java applications, like JDE, run perfectly well. According to terminal (by executing the command "java -version"), Java is installed. The following page tha should complete the provisioning process, rather, displays an error that Java isn't installed and the user should go to to complete the installation. Upon filling out the description, the page is submitted.
#APPLE JAVA PLUGIN MAC#
The next page displays the MAC address for the machine and a description field. From the top, the Mac Mini attaches to Wifi and the self-provisioning page appears with an authentication request. Have gone through updating Java from Apple (2013-005) as well as from Oracle/Java (1.7), and applied several variations of uninstalling and reinstalling Java, doesn't seem to make a difference. When this computers reaches the self-provisioning portal, after clicking submit on the MAC address registration, the following screen displays an erroneous error that Java isn't installed. Have a Mac Mini running that had this problem under OSX 10.8 and is persisting in 10.9.
