Hey Folks,

I just updated to 10.6.8, in fact ran all available 10.6 apple updates, and when I tried to log into the web GUI of our SANbox 5600 I got a java error stating that I don't have the 1.4.2 Java Plugin.

Looking in the Java preferences it would appear that I'm running 1.6.0_26-b03-384

Annnnyway, you folks seen this and/or figured a way around this issue?

Greg

You tried using FireFox?

I am using FireFox successfully to log into the web gui of 5000 series switches. Works well. FF has its own Java plugin. Works in 10.6.8

Whoops.

Ok was running an old version of FireFox. After updating to the latest Firefox build 7.0.1 (and disabling/re-enabling the Java plugin for good measure), I'm able to log in to the Sanbox.

Thanks folks.

I had the same problem just now with a Sanbox 5200. It seems like the Java detection script is incompatible with newer versions of Apple's Java, but the applet still works.

I wrote a Greasemonkey script that bypasses the detection (more specifically, it injects the proper applet embed code into the page that claims that you don't have Java):
Code:
// ==UserScript==
// @name          QLogic QuickTools fixer
// @namespace     http://your-switch-name-here/getjava.html
// @description   Disables Java version check on QLogic QuickTools
// @include       http://your-switch-name-here/getjava.html
// ==/UserScript==

document.title = 'QLogic QuickTools';

var b = document.getElementsByTagName('body');
b[0].innerHTML = '<center><applet CODE = "applet.Common.class" ARCHIVE = "QuickTools.jar,ComQDevice.jar,sansurfer2.jar,jdom.jar,."width="950" height="580"></applet></center>';

To use it, install the Safari extension NinjaKit, click the NinjaKit button in your toolbar, click Scripts, Add new script, paste the code from above and click Save.
If you have multiple affected QLogic switches, duplicate the @include for every one.

Thanks for that! A VERY handy script.
