Sql Developer Launcher Not Working In Linux

Hello,
System Details:
Fedora 19
Sql Developer Version: Version 4.0.0.12
Java Version: OpenJDK 1.7.0-40
I can launch Sql Developer from the command line successfully.
/opt/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper.sh
But when I attempt to use the launcher icon, I receive a SIGSEGV error. Here is the top of the hs_error.log file.
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x000000317a062e00, pid=7680, tid=140636646749952
# JRE version: OpenJDK Runtime Environment (7.0_40-b60) (build 1.7.0_40-mockbuild_2013_10_02_16_56-b00)
# Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (24.0-b56 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops)
# Problematic frame:
# C 0x000000317a062e00
The ~/.sqldeveloper/jdk file contains the following:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.60-2.4.2.7.fc19.x86_64
And my /usr/share/applications/sqldeveloper.desktop file contains the following:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=SQL Developer
Comment=Oracle SQL Developer
Icon=/opt/sqldeveloper/icon.png
Exec=/opt/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper.sh
Terminal=true
Type=Application
Categories=GNOME;Oracle;
I'm just switching from Ubuntu to Fedora so this has not worked in the past.
Thank you for any help,
Ann

The solution in https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2594033 worked. I added the 2nd line below to /opt/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper.sh.
#!/bin/bash
unset -v GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID
cd "`dirname $0`"/sqldeveloper/bin && bash sqldeveloper $*
Previously, I incorrectly updated ~/.bashrc to unset GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID. That's why running Sql Developer from the command line worked, but not from the launcher.
Thanks su.

My SQL Developer is not working correctly! help

hello!!
My problem here is not like I can't live or work but it is REALLY annoying, see my SQL Developer is not taking any key different from letters and the space bar, I mean, if I use the enter key, doesn't change the line, if i use the backspace key doesn't erase if I use F5/F9 doesn't execute the query(s)!!!! and so the arrow keys don't work!!!
any ideas why is that happening? and if so howcan i fix it?

There is a well known but still unresolved bug causing this kind of behavior, if you are on SQL Developer 1.5.X you can work around the problem by loading default accelerators from:
Tools -> Accelerators -> Load Preset -> Default
If you are on 2.1.X the preset can be loaded from
Tools -> Preferences -> Accelerators -> Other Actions -> Load Keyboard
In 2.1 this problem has not been reported so far, so if you are in 1.5.X you may consider upgrading.

SQL Developer does not support Oracle 8i

Hi,
I was waiting a tool from Oracle like SQL Developer for a long time, finally it came, but I am a little disapointed, so Why SQL Developer does not support Oracle 8i? Other free tools like SQUIRREL can do it. I also have worked in previous projects using PL/SQL Developer and it works fine...Why a native Oracle tool can not do it?
I am in a project where we have to upgrade the Oracle database to a newer version, but I cannot have access to the old one...
I know there are some threads in this forum, and some people can work with 8i with no issues. Can anyone who works with SQL Developer and Oracle 8i please tell me how to do it?
Thanks,
--Javier

That's what I thought, the issue is more commercial ($$$) than technical. Anyway...I downloaded the version 1.1 but now I am getting an ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION error. 00604. 00000 "error occurred at recursive SQL level %s".

Connection ... able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too

Hi folks, having this issue, with only one of my so many databases, what might be the reason and how to fix/correct this, please assist.
Able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too; sqlplus error: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
thanks in advance.

SQLDEVELOPER works since it use JDBC Thin & does not use tnsnames.ora
ORA-12154 ALWAYS only occurs on SQL Client & no SQL*Net packets ever leave client system
ORA-12154 [B]NEVER[/B] involves the listener, the database itself or anything on the DB Server.
ORA-12154 occurs when client requests a connection to some DB server system using some connection string.
TNS-03505 is thrown by tnsping & is same error as ORA-12154 thrown by sqlplus or others.
The lookup operation fails because the name provided can [B]NOT[/B] be resolved to any remote DB.
The analogous operation would be when you wanted to call somebody, but could not find their name in any phonebook.
The most frequent cause for the ORA-12154 error is when the connection alias can not be found in tnsnames.ora.
The lookup operation of the alias can be impacted by the contents of the sqlnet.ora file; specifically DOMAIN entry.

SQL Developer will not come up.

I had SQL developer installed and working fine. Then I did something, not sure what, and now when I try to start SQL developer, it does not start. Something may flash. I still have all of my SQL developer files in the correct directories on my PC.
Do I need to re-install SQL Developer, or is there a quick fix for this?

You should provide a little more detail.
SQLDeveloper and java version to begin with, OS version would be nice too.
Besides i had a similar issue on SQLDeveloper 1.5.X with JDK 1.6.X, and it was related to the Look And Feel, the system would stop working when Windows Look and Feel was selected.
To restore this you need to manually remove the look and feel entry from a configuration file in the systemXXX directory unfortunately i dont remember the file name, to check you can backup and remove the whole system directory, it can be found under your user home in windows XP this is:
documents and settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\SQL Developer\system2.1.1.64.39\o.ide.11.1.1.2.36.55.30mind the Application Data folder is hidden.

Why my RMI is not Working in Linux???

Hiii how ru?
I am Rahul here
Well I have a problem that my RMI in not working on Linux.. so can u tell me the solution to my problem???
When i am typing following command i am getting exception as RmiNotBoundException
java -Djava.security.policy=my.policy ChaClient&
however my Server is Starting normally but client is not connection to server.
so please tell me the solution to this problem
U can contact me at
[email protected]
[email protected]
Thank u Very much...

i ran into the same issue dealing with RMI and Linux. My issue was the the stub that linux was giving you gave in the host field the ip number of "127.0.0.1" which tried to make the client connect to itself. this is how i got around it:
java -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<ip that other clients will connect to>
so, for instance, if on a client you connect to the server with an IP of 10.5.0.1, then when starting up the java vm, you start it
java -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=10.5.0.1
hopefully that helps

Wireless not working in linux, but works fine in windows vista

Hello!
I have installed Unbreakable Enterprise Linux 4 in a dual boot config. with Window Vista on a Compaq Presario laptop. After install completed I found that my on board Broadcom Wireless Adapter (Dell 1390 Mini PC card) was not recognized. I have tried installing NDISwrapper versions 1.48 and later 1.47 (after uninstalling 1.48) because everytime I got to the "modprobe ndiswrapper" received a fatal error about an unknown symbol or parameter, and on install I also encountered a "CONFIG_4KSTACKS" error as well. The good part is the light on my laptop for the wireless adapter finally came on and the driver (bcmwl5.inf) appears to be installed and the wireless adapter identified as being present, but it still doesn't show up in the network manager gui interface. So I am out of ideas if any one can give me a suggestion for a solution I would appreciate it.

Hi there,,,,,
I have Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 installed and Intel wifi 5100 card installed on my laptop. Wireless card does not work in Linux it works fine with Vista, I have dual boot. I have downloaded and installed the microcode for the wireless card for Linux,,,it is now active but it does not take ip address from dhcp and nor does it connect when i supply manual ip. it does not even scan for any wireless network. I have WEP enabled on my wireless network. It just says disconnected.....
Please help me.....i have been trying to get this thing work for 3 weeks.
thanks.

SQl loader is not working in 10g but working in 9i

In My PC i have installed both 9i and 10g. could you please tell me why it is not working

"SQL loader is not working" is rather like "my car won't start" http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/06/how-to-ask-questions.html
The 9i Oracle Client install includes sqlldr. The 10g Oracle Client install does NOT include sqlldr. You'd have to do a "Custom" Install and specifically select "Oracle Database Utilities" to install.

Oracle SQL Developer does not browse Sybase's objects

I had installed and configured jtds-1.2.5.jar in Oracle SQL Developer for Sysbase connection. Oracle SQL Developer does not browse any objects. Why? Can you please provide a solution?

Hi,
Can you provide some more information into what you are experiencing.
What version of SQL Developer are you using?
Did you install the jtds jar under the
Tools > Preferences > Database > Third Party JDBC Driver
Is the Sybase tab available in the new connection dialog?
Did you select the default database in the connection dialog?
Can you run a query against the Sybase database from the SQL Developer worksheet?
Note that JTDS 1.2 is the only supported version. There maybe issues with other versions.

Dermot.

In Oracle this SQL update tatement not working but in MS SQL it works

Dear Friends,
The following sql update statement work fine in MS sql server but not working in Oracle. Can you kindly suggest, What is wrong with this statement ? and is their any other way of achieving the same in Oracle.
UPDATE INPUTSTREET SET EDIT_FLAGS=S.EDIT_FLAGS From INPUTSTREET G, INPUT_SEGBASE S Where G.GEOKEY=S.GEOKEY
This statement give error in Oralce saying - Statement not ended properly
Cheers,
Vinay

You would normally write
UPDATE inputStreet g
   SET edit_flags = (SELECT s.edit_flags
                       FROM input_segbase s
                      WHERE s.geokey = g.geokey)If you don't want to update all the rows in inputStreet, you can add a WHERE EXISTS clause.

Can SQL Developer Data Modeler work with OBIEE?

Can SQL Developer Data Modeler work with OBIEE? Can we export the data model from the Data Modeler and import it into OBIEE? Or export the OBIEE metadata to the Data Modeler for Data Model defining?

Sql developer is not starting

hi..
im new to linux and i installed the oracle database 11g and created a database and instance using dbca.
im able to connect to the database from the console.. but i dont know how to access the samle schemas.
so decided to install sql developer.. i downloaded and installed it.
but the it doesnt start after double clicking it.. i also created a listener using netca..
please help ..
thanks in advance .....

Do you have a jdk installed on your machine? You need java 1.6 jdk at least to run SQL Developer.
Go down to the bin directory in your sql developer install dir, and run the sqldeveloper.exe from there.
This will give you a command window and you'll see any error messages that are being generated.
There are plenty of blog posts out there where people have documented the exact steps to get SQL Developer going on their specific Linux derivative. Try checking those for help as well.

KeyListener not working in Linux

Hello guys, I'm having a weird problem I was hoping I could get resolved.
I finished a Pong applet for my Java class, and it works just fine under Windows and on my Mac.
But when I run it under Linux, the Applet doesn't work correctly.
The applet draws, and my timer works, but my KeyListener does not work.
I believe all of my Java files are updated properly.
But I do not understand why KeyListener does not work under Linux, but it does in Windows.
I then made a very basic applet just to test my KeyListener, and it still does not work.
This is how I was taught to do KeyListeners, but if I'm doing something wrong, please help me out!
here is the basic program code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test extends JApplet implements KeyListener
int x = 0;
int y = 250;
public void init()
addKeyListener(this);
public void paint(Graphics g)
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.fillRect(0,0,500,500);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.fillRect(x,y,50,50);
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent event)
int keyCode = event.getKeyCode();
if(keyCode == KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT)
x += 10;
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent event)
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent event)

What if don't use a KeyListener but instead use key binding? For instance,
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

    private int deltaX, deltaY;
    private Arrows(int keyCode, int deltaX, int deltaY) {
      this.keyCode = keyCode;
