Oracle SQL Developer Screen Flickers - Problem Fixed - JDK 1.6

Hi,
I'm using the latest version of Oracle SQL Developer (sqldeveloper-1.1.2.2579) on a Windows XP SP2 system and the application screen constantly flickers. Has anyone else experience this behavior? It's really annoying.

  • Oracle SQL Developer Screen hangs up

    I am facing an unusual problem in Oracle SQL Developer. When I try to compile a store procedure it hangs up the Oracle SQL Developer Screen and I can't do any activity, except to kill the SQL developer instance and start again.
    But when i start he instance and try to compile it, i again get the same error.
    Anybody faced such problem? I am new to oracle.
    For one or two instance I waited for 5 to 10 min and got this error
    ORA-04021 timeout occurred while waiting to lock object
    But I am the only person working on this instance of Oracle

    That would indicate some other session is currently running the proc. Check out Tools - Monitor Sessions, or the Enterprise Manager. If necessary, you can kill the locking session from both.
    Hope that helps,
    K.

    Hi,
    One prior post discussing the use of Java 7 is:
    SQL Developer 3.0  and Java SE 7?
    There is no need to uninstall any Java version (except if you have disk space constraints) and no problem switching between Java versions. This may be controlled in the sqldeveloper.conf file in your ...\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin directory via the SetJavaHome line. For example:
    #SetJavaHome ../../jdk
    SetJavaHome C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_26
    #SetJavaHome C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0Regards,

  • Oracle SQL developer 3.2.20.09 connection problem

    hello everyone. I just installed oracle SQL developer on mavericks. active JDK is 1.6.0_65. host name : som3a... now the problem is , whenever i try to make a new connection using the previous info and specifiying the default port 1433 i always get the following error
    Status : Failure -Test failed: Cannot connect to Microsoft SQL Server on som3a
    - can these fields ( connection name , username ,password ) take any values or do they need to be something special like ? i mean the host name must be som3a right so do the same constraint apply on these fields ?
    -i tried telnet som3a 1433 , it gets stuck at "trying..."

    I think you have the wrong forum, as this forum is dedicated to the Oracle Database Cloud Service.

  • Favorites icon gone from Oracle SQL Developer Help screen

    Favorites icon gone from Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 Help Center screen
    How do I get it back?
    In Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 I clicked
    Help->Table of Contents
    to bring ut the Help Center window.
    It the Help Center window I used to have a Favorites tab next
    to the Contents TAB on the left side of the window.
    I did an unpin some how and now I can't get the Favorites
    TAB back.
    On the right side there is a Star + icon that does
    Add to Favorites.
    I can add links to favorites but I have no way to go to these
    saved favorites anymore.
    How do I get the Favorites TAB/Icon back?
    Thanks

    Hi John,
    SQL Developer depends on JDeveloper code for the Help. After closing the Favorites tab I see no way to re-open it in the UI, so I imagine there may be a bug on the JDev side. Fortunately, there is a manual fix:
    In file product-preferences.xml
    In directory C:\Documents and Settings\<userid>\Application Data\SQL Developer\system3.0.04.34\o.sqldeveloper.11.1.2.4.34
    use Notepad to look for the lines like:
          <value n="helpDynamicLinksNavigatorLocation" v="3"/>
          <value n="helpFavoritesNavigatorLocation" v="0"/>
    Just change the value "0" to "2"Regards,

  • How to solve Oracle SQL Developer connection problem ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am using Oracle Database 11gR1. The Database Control Console https://localhost.localdomain:1158/em works correctly. I can create a Database and a table successfully.
    My OS is Linux and connects to internet successfully.
    In order to run SQL statements. we need to use Oracle SQL Developer. I connect Oracle SQL Developer in the following way:
    Connection Name: DB1 (this is my database name as well)
    Username: SYS (this is the user name I used to login to the Console)
    Password: SYS (this the password used to login to the Console)
    Connection Type: Basic
    Host Name: localhost
    Port: 1158
    SID: DB1 (this is created during installing the Database)
    But the error message comes up: "Status: Failure - IO exception Connection Reset."
    Can any folk tell me how to solve Oracle SQL Developer connection problem ?

    role: select sysdba if you would connect as sysdba else select normal for users other than sys
    hostname: enter your oracle server hostname or ip address eg:- 192.168.11.12
    to find the hostname open terminal/command prompt in oracle installed machine
    type ---> hostname
    type ---->ping hostname
    you can find the ipaddress of the server
    port number: 1521 (default) ----> i guess , else check the port number in the tnsnames.ora file under your ORACLE_HOME/network/admin folder

  • Problems using SQL*Loader with Oracle SQL Developer

    I have been using TOAD and able to import large (milllions of rows of data) in various file formats into a table in an Oracle database. My company recently decided not to renew any more TOAD licenses and go with Oracle SQL Developer. The Oracle database is on a corporate server and I access the database via Oracle client locally on my machine. Oracle SQL Developer and TOAD are local on my desktop and connected through TNSnames using the Windows XP platform. I have no issues with using SQL*Loader via the import wizard in TOAD to import the data in these large files into an Oracle table and producing a log file. Loading the same files via SQL*Loader in SQL Developer, freezes up my machine and I cannot get it to produce a log file. Please help!

    I am using SQL Developer version 3.0.04. Yes, I have tried it with a smaller file with no success. What is odd is that the log file is not even created. What is created is a .bat file a control file and a .sh file but no log file. The steps that I take:
    1.Right click on the table I want to import to or go to actions
    2. Import Data
    3. Find file to import
    4. Data Preview - All fields entered according to file
    5. Import Method - SQL Loader utility
    6. Column Definitions - Mapped
    7. Options - Directory of files set
    8. Finish
    With the above steps I was not able to import 255 rows of data. No log file was produced so I don't know why it is failing.
    thanks.

  • Problem in connection to Oracle SQL Developer

    Hi All,
    I am trying to connect to remote machine database through Oracle SQL Developer, it is giving me teh following error.
    Status: Faliure -Test failed :io connection :The Network Adapter could not establish the connection .
    I had given the hostname as the name which is assigned to that server, it didnt work.
    Later i tried with the IP address of the Server, it worked.
    Can anybody tell me how can i connect by giving hostname instead of the IP address.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vinay

    Hi Vinay,
    One way would be to add an entry in your hosts file. On windoze you can find this in
    %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc
    Regards

  • Oracle SQL Developer freezes and locks up computer randomly

    I attempted to find a solution to this before posting. I looked through the first 40 pages of this forum and on Google, through the Developer documentation, etc. with no luck.
    The problem: while using Oracle SQL Developer, the computer randomly freezes. Things work, but it hangs too often and for too long to use. This is random - it can happen every 10 seconds or every 2 minutes. The mouse will lock up, and the keyboard buffer will get all messed up. For instance, if it happens to freeze while I'm hitting "backspace", it will delete many lines of text (I've lost a bit of work because of this in the past). The freezing will last about 2 to 20 seconds, and the only way out of it is to ctrl+alt+delete and kill SQL Developer.
    If SQL Developer is running, and I'm in a different window - it will freeze the other windows as well. Again, it's impossible to use unfortunately. My coworker doesn't have the same problem, and he's connecting to the same database with the same version using Windows Vista. It must be something on this computer. I reformatted about 1 month ago, so it's a pretty fresh install and I haven't installed much of anything yet.
    I'm using Windows Vista Enterprise 32-bit w/SP1.
    This was occurring with older versions of SQL Developer (1.2). I'm using the newest install that included the Java JDK. I've completely removed Java, my Oracle installs, and a host of other attempts to fix this, and nothing changes. I've tried running the .exe in the bin directory as administrator as well.
    Currently using Oracle Developer 1.5.1.54.40.
    Any ideas?

    I tried dumping the contents, but the java dump wasn't showing anything at all, and it would never freeze while I had the console window in focus, so it wasn't very helpful unfortunately.
    I fixed this issue by uninstalling the Java runtime on this machine and installing the Java JDK 6 Update 7 from java.sun.com/javase/downloads . I then downloaded the SQL Developer 1.5.1 version without the Java runtime included, and pointed it to the Update 7 .exe file upon first load.
    I was using JDK 6 Update 6 previously, and it must have been behind the errors. Note that the Update 7 has to be downloaded from that website as it's a new version that hasn't been posted on the regular java.com site yet.
