I am trying to access a web app (webmin) and I get the following error message:

This module requires java to function, but your browser does not support java

It was working before. Chrome works just fine, but I prefer firefox. One of my customers is having the same problem but others using firefox don't have the problem.

I gather you're running on Linux.

I had this same problem and fixed it by adding the icedtea6-plugin package on Ubuntu. icedtea6-plugin is a web browser plugin to execute Java applets.
