marvin.js doesn't recognize that i have java 1.7 installed

we use the marvin.js script to start the marvin applet within a webpage. However the script wants to install java 1.6 but i already have 1.7 installed

short of installing 1.6, what's the solution here?

this is with the latest ver 5.91 using the marvin-bin-5.9.1.zip installation package.

Also the applet opens right up on another workstation that has java 1.6.0.31 installed

we are working from an https website if that matters

The marvin.js generated applet code requires 1.6 compatible Java Plugin.

If it does not accept your Java 1.7 plugin, it means that your plugin is not recognized as an 1.6 compatible plugin.

It may be a platform specific Java issue.

Please give us more information about your software environment (where this problem occurs) to be able to investigate this issue:

- Marvin Applet version

- Operating system

- Browser type and version

- Java plugin:

-- vendor

-- architecture (32bit or 64bit)

-- exact version number

thanks for the reply, below is the requested info

- Marvin Applet version: 5.9.1

- Operating system: windows 7 pro, 32 bit

- Browser type and version IE8

- Java plugin: Java JRE 1.7.0.4.ea

-- vendor: Sun

-- architecture (32bit or 64bit): 32 bit

-- exact version number: marvinsketch 5.9.1_b39

From the Browser regarding the Java Plugin

I uninstalled & reinstalled my java 1.7 environment and the problem has been resolved. I think something was messed up with the config of the JRE.

thanks

 

Thanks for the feedback. I am happy that the problem has been solved.

I assume that the Java plugin was not installed properly. It seems that reinstallation has fixed this issue.
