I need to run IE6 from an XP bottle to access a web application that requires both JAVA and Flash. When I login in to the app it tells me that Flash is missing but when I click the link, I do not get the yellow Install ActiveX control bar although Adobe tells me it's probably there. I checked the help file for both flash and java but neither appeared. I understand the Crossover is faking out there being a real version of Windows present when one is not so maybe this is not possible.
Any guidance appreciated. I have a workaround using a VM, but CX would be much faster and lighter.
It's really not a dumb question. Getting Java & Flash into an IE6 bottle is not trivial.
Here are the skeleton steps, if you need more details please email info@codeweavers.com:
Create a win98 bottle and install IE6
Make the additional packages on CrossOver visible and install 'flash 9 ocx' from the list of applications
Download the Java installer and install it
Upgrade the bottle to WinXP
Visit a testing sight to make sure it can retrieve the proper Java version
Visit the sight that requires Java & Flash.
Good luck!
