java webstart icon not appearing in firefox and Chrome

Hi

I would like to check if anyone face the issue of java webstart icon not appearing at the omero web menu bar after you login to omero via web?
I used to see the icon but not anymore. Probably could be because of firefox upgrade.
I am using mac, firefox 15.01 and chrome 21.0

I have tried with IE on window box, the icon works fine, but Chrome on window has same problem.


If I turn on the Error Console Tool at Firefox, below is the error showing

Error: ReferenceError: deployjava is not defined
Source File: https://....../omero/webclient/

any tip would be appreciated.

thanks.

I haven't seen this problem yet myself, but searching briefly I see one suggestion to upgrade your Java version, which you might want to try. If you have any luck, please let us know, or perhaps someone else on the forums might have a suggestion.

Cheers,

Hi Josh

Your suggestion does trigger me some clues.
I have solved by

-clearing java cache at my mac
-removing signed java signatures related to the site

I suspect it could be because of Software update recently occured at my mac laptop.
I have done the same thing at window box and it works fine now.

Thanks.
