IV55037: JAVA PLUGIN MIME TYPE TABLE CONTAINS AN EMPTY ENTRY

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: N/A
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  The Java plugin reports 38 supported MIME Types, but the last
  MIME type is blank. This blank MIME Type is causing an issue in
  Firefox where it will not display any of the external
  application handlers for various MIME Types (the list in
  Options->Applications is blank due to this bug).This prevents
  the user from changing which apps/plugins handle which MIME
  Types.
