Newbie to Oracle SQL Developer

Hi guys, cheers for taking the time to read this post.....
Im running a few different scripts in Oracle SQL Developer, one called CreateLocalSchema.sql, another CreateLocalProcedures,sql and a third SystemSetup.sql
When I press f5 to run the Systemsetup.sql, im prompted to "enter the identifier of system". Does this mean the SID? Ive tried XE, my username (lbell),orcl.
Not sure what to enter here. Im getting this error through most of the script output window.
SQL Error: ORA-00904: "SYSTEMID": invalid identifier
+00904. 00000 - "%s: invalid identifier+
Do i need to do anything that i havent realised? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi 899065      
It depends on the script. You are being asked for input via substitution variable '&variablename' or '&&variablename' or via the accept command.
set echo on
before running the script will display the command before the output is printed. This may be reset within the script i.e. set echo off .
Forum: SQL Developer *(Not for general SQL/PLSQL questions)*
might be worth trying if the script works in sqlplus.

  • Newbie blues: Oracle Sql Developer showing different data from Sqlplus.

    Newbie blues: Oracle Sql Developer showing different data from Sqlplus.
    First of all; it would be difficult to know less about Oracle than myself.
    I just installed a recent copy of the server and am running SQl Developer 3.2.20.10.
    I made a small test table , borrowed some pl sql code to add rows, then wrote code to delete some rows. Lots of fun.
    In SQL Developer “Select * from t1;” now shows 7 records, which seems right.
    I wanted other views of the data and so logged in from the command line using SQLPlus.
    The same code here shows the table prior to the delete, with 600 plus rows. Needless to say I’ve logged out and back in again, with no changes.
    No fun ! What am I not understanding here ?

    did you ever actually issue COMMIT so other session can see the changed data?

  • BUG in Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04 on the "generating DLL" with comments?

    I'm newbie on oracle, but I think that I found out a bug in Oracle SQL Developer version 3.0.04 on the "generating DLL" tool using "comments".
    I will describe the steps that I gave:
    I created a view, but after I test it I had to change my “where” condition, so I comment the old code and then I wrote the new “where” condition below. After I done that I tried to look at the sql code of my view using “generating DLL” tool, but oracle sql developer only shown me half of the code, a lot of code were missing. Then I began with some test trying to understand what happen and I notice that if I put an invalid sql code in my comment the generating DLL start working with no problems, for example(pseudo-code):
    (COMMENT WITH VALID SQL CODE the "Generating SQL" don't work:)
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
    AS
    SELECT column1, column2
    FROM table1
    INNER JOIN
    (SELECT
    FROM table2
    INNER JOIN .....
    INNER JOIN ....
    --where time_stamp = (select max(time_stamp) from .....)
    WHERE time_stamp >= TRUNC(sysdate)
    ) t1 ON t1.ID = ....
    AND ..... >= TRUNC(sysdate)
    ORDER BY ....
    Generating DLL returns this(when the error occurs):
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
    AS
    (COMMENT WITH VALID SQL CODE the "Generating SQL" work with no problems:)
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
    AS
    SELECT column1, column2
    FROM table1
    INNER JOIN
    (SELECT
    FROM table2
    INNER JOIN .....
    INNER JOIN ....
    --where
    WHERE time_stamp >= TRUNC(sysdate)
    ) t1 ON t1.ID = ....
    AND ..... >= TRUNC(sysdate)
    ORDER BY ....
    I believe that "Generating DLL" tool have some problem with the comments, I also used /*...*/ to comment but the problem is still active.
    I notice as well that if I started to add some more comments along the code, the conditions migth change, so I think the problem is related with "comments" code.
    Would you mind telling me if this is a real bug or if I'm doing anything wrong.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hi Rodrigo,
    Thank you for reporting this. The only bug I see currently logged on a comment affecting the generated View DDL involves ending the last line of the definition with a comment, which treats the ending semi-colon (even if on a different line) as part of the comment. That is actually related to a low-priority bug against an Oracle database API.
    Unfortunately, your pseudo-code is a bit complex. Trying a few quick, simpler tests against the standard HR schema did not reproduce the issue. I tried INNER JOIN, and nested SELECTs. It would help greatly if you could provide a test case compilable against one of the standard schema, like HR or SCOTT.

  • Unable to display results of multiple query in grid in Oracle SQL Developer

    Hi, I am a newbie to this forum and couldn't find the Oracle SQL Developer forum so posting it here.
    My question: How to display multiple query results in grid in Oracle SQL Developer.
    Example:
    select * from Employee;
    select * from Department;
    - when I select both the queries and hit F5 in Oracle sql developer. By default it displays in output window.
    - How to display result of both the queries in Grid.
    Any thoughts on this would be really helpful.
    Thanks in advance.
    Harsh

    Hi Harsh,
    I'd say that the Results grid is designed to only show the results of 1 query at a time. I don't know/can't see how it would display multiple queries at a time.
    I would suggest either joining your tables to create a single query or opening another SQL Worksheet for one of the queries so that you can display the results side-by-side.
    Maybe you could explain what you're trying to do. Why are you trying to display multiple results in the same query grid?

  • Oracle SQL Developer Connection Help

    Hi,
    I'm a complete Oracle newbie, so please bear with me. I've been doing research on protein clustering and at my lab the SQL developer has been running queries that I can then do statistics on. I have the query that I need to run, and was told to download Oracle SQL Developer and Oracle Client.
    I was also given a username and password, a hostname, a port and a SID. I'm a bit confused, do I still need to install Oracle Client? And if so, I can't quite find what it is on the website? I have SQL Developer installed but when I click connect I get:
    "Status : Failure -Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection"
    I'm pretty computer literate outside the world of databases so if someone can offer some explanations and guidance, it would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Thanks!If you have SQL Developer installed & need to connect to some Oracle DB,
    then you do NOT need Oracle client.
    FWIW - SQL Developer is written in Java & uses JDBC (thin) to connect to the DB
    Is the DB Server on a subnet local to your system?

  • Copying from Oracle SQL Developer to Microsoft Word doesn't retain formatting (Font,colors etc)

    Copying from Oracle SQL Developer Worksheet doesn't retain formatting (font,color etc...)in Microsoft Word but copying from other programs such as

    Hi,
    I notice that you have cross posted in Answers forum and Oracle forum. Have you tried Mr. Peter's suggestion?
    Then, I recommend we check the Word settings:
    1. Go to: Options > Advanced > Cut, Copy and Paste
    2.  Make sure that Use smart cut and paste is ticked. 
    3. Click the Settings button next to this option
    4. Make sure that Smart Style

    If the issue still exists, please upload a sample through One Drive, I want to test.

  • Unable to connect to Oracle Database using Oracle Sql developer 2.1.1.64

    Hi Everyone,

For a few days after installation i could connect to the Oracle database with the SYSTEM account using Oracle SQL developer ( installed on the same Laptop) but now i am unable to do so.It gives me this annoying message:

  • Oracle SQL Developer  error - "The file-based source procedure Name is not present in the database."

    I recently started working on the Oracle SQL developer. I have 'select' privileges on the QA schema and when tried to execute proc in QA. It is giving the error as 'The file-based source <procedure Name>  is not present in the database.  Was it compiled?'
    instead 'you do not have sufficient privileges to execute this procedure'. Did research on internet but with no luck.What configuration changes needed to be done to make it work.Guide me.

    Sounds like you do not have the correct privileges.  What should have been granted to you by the QA user, or some other user with appropriate privileges, is...
    grant EXECUTE on "QA"."<PROCEDURE_OF_INTEREST>" to "<YOUR_USERID>" ;
    Note that a grant of execute on a procedure has nothing to do with grants of select on some or all of QA's tables and views.
    So, as Vadim suggests, from your connection node in SQL Developer's Connections view, if you expand the Other Users node, then expand QA and look in the Procedures node, do you see the procedure of interest?  If not, you cannot expect to be able to execute it from your userid's connection. And even if you do see it, you may have some other privilege that permits viewing but not executing, like...
    The role SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege SELECT ANY DICTIONARY
    And even if you do not see it there, then having certain other privileges granted to you could permit executing it in general, like...
    The role EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
    Also, note that the 3.0 release is a bit dated nowadays. Upgrading to 4.0.3 production or even the 4.1 EA2 (early adopter) release will, in general, give you a better experience.
    Best wishes,
    Gary

    You can also create your own reports and/or User Defined Extensions to add a Jobs node inside the connection navigator, but that's for more advanced users...
