4.0EA3 missing "Oracle" in Connections dialog

I use SQL Developer on a Windows 7 machine. I always install to a folder "C:\Program Files\Oracle\SQL Developer\". When I update to a new version, I rename the folder for the existing version from "SQL Developer" to something like "SQL Developer 4.0.0.12" and name the folder for the new versin "SQL Developer". This way, I keep an old version if I want it for anything and my desktop shortcuts are automatically pointing to the new version.
Well, this time, when I installed 4.0EA3 I found I could not connect to any DB. The "Oracle" tab was missing in the connections dialog. I only had "Access" and "JBDC". Well, I finally realized, that this was only an issue when I saved the new version to the folder with the same name that the old version had. If I run it from a folder called "SQL Developer 4.0.0.13" it works fine. This hasn't been an issue with any prior version.
I tried not importing the settings from the prior version, but I still have the same issue. The "Oracle" tab is missing.
So, is there something I need to do to make 4.0EA3 work in a folder with the same name as the prior version had?

Sorry, I may not have been clear. I did remove the existing directly entirely before doing the install. That is, I renamed that directory. Then created a new directory with the same name. So, both version should are still distinct.
If the folder is called "SQL Developer", I don't have the "Oracle" tab. If I rename the folder to something else, then run SQL Developer, the "Oracle" tab is present. If I then change the folder name back, the tab is again gone. The contents of the folder rename unchanged each time I try this.

Database connection dialog no longer available

I want to add a connection to the connections in SQL Developer. However I cannot as I cannot access the database connection dialog.
I tried in different ways :
- plus sign above the connections
- editing an existing connection
- menu option : editing - properties when standing on a connection
- menu option : file - new and choose for new database connection
I do not get an error when clicking on these options. I just does not start any action.
When starting up SQL developer I see this in the log pane : "Exception firing addinsLoaded to oracle.jdevimpl.vcs.VCSManagerImpl$6@7d91275b"
Maybe this error is related?
I know as a workaround you can import a connection from an XML file. Tried that, it works, I see an extra connection in the list but I do not manage to use it to connect to the database.
Would be great to access the database connection dialog.

The specific error you have listed is related to versioning support - do you use this? If not, then I would suggest switching off versioning support in the preferences (Tools > Preferences > Extensions) and trying again.
If that doesn't work, the error you list has been reported (along with a number of other errors, which you may or may not be getting) in Start-up error "DatabaseConnections has no JNDI context so cannot list ..." - do you have an ssoShell.exe running? If so, does killing it help SQL Developer?

Connection Dialog Box Pops Up When a Report is Called From Forms

Hi ,
Some times when calling a report from forms using RUN_PRODUCT, a connection dialog box is popped up. We are using forms6i (Version 6.0.8.8.0) client-server.This behavior occurred on a specific pc while many other pc work fine.
I found a relevant document in metalink (docid:156232.1 https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:4126992859688402901::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,156232.1,1,1,1,helvetica ) saying that the database user must have the ALTER_SESSION privilege.In out case user has that privilege through CONNECT role.
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance

Spreadsheet Add-in connect dialog box do not appear after clean EPM-install

Clean install of EPM with allmost all values default.
version 11.1.2.1 on Win server 2008R2 and office 2010 32bit.
Smartview seems to function properly.
My impression from the documentation is that an installation of spreadsheet add-in does not require any post configuration, but maybe I am misstaken.
So what needs to be done for spreadsheet add-in to show connect dialog box?
Grant some kind of access in shared services?
Change some environment variable?
etc etc.

Seems as if there is something fishy with the Essbase Java API, can this cause trouble for the Add-in?
When using the foundation diagnostic tool I get:

Recommended Action: Make sure external checker is working.
When I try to launch that path manually I get: "The system cannot find the path specified."

Oracle server connection

Hi All,
Please suggest me how to create a oracle connection without using oracle server connection.
I created like this.
Goto new connection->Expand ODBC(RDO)->gave the credentials.
But please suggest what is the use of below process found here
http://scn.sap.com/thread/2002507
Go to your Control Panel and open Administrative Tools -> Click on Data Source(ODBC). On the User DSN tab, select a driver for which you want to set up a data source by clicking on the Add button. Once done, the ODBC setup dialog box appears. Provide your database login details and clik ok..Your ODBC connection is done.
Next open your Crystal Report application(a blank report)not sure which version you are using, in my case it is Crystal Report XI Release 2. On the Database Expert, expand Create New Connection. Expand ODBC(RDO) , it will take you to the Data Source Selection. Select the datasoure name and click Next. Here, you need to give the login credential for accessing the Database. Once done, you will find the data available on the Crystal Report.

Hi Abhilash,
Can you please explain below step.
Hello,
This is by design and a limit of how CR works due to limitation in your PC resources. CR loads all of that info into memory, if there are too many to list, and typically it's more common when using Oracle due to it's ability have thousands of tables, is in the Database connection right click on the connection and then select Options. You can add filtering to limit what you see.
Only option you have to be able to get to see all tables required for your report. Don't add tables if they are not required or if you can't link them. Work arounds are to create a collection of Stored Procedures or Views so you see just what you need.

Connect dialog - JDBC Database string

Hi,
I'm trying to use Query Builder (or any other tool that must connect to a database) on my Informix DBMS (through JDBC). When Connect dialog apperas I enter User Name, Password and... yes what about Database?? I tried to use full URL (like jdbc:informix-sqli://hostname:port/database:INFORMIXSERVER=xxx),
only hostname:port/database:INFORMIXSERVER=xxx (assuming, that Reports will use settings from jdbcpds.conf) and just basename. Nothing worked. Either i got message:
"REP-501: Unable to connect to the specified database
ORA-06401: NETCMN: (something about wrong designate of driver)"
or:
"REP-501: Unable to connect to the specified database
ORA-12154: TNS: Can't count service name"
Q: What string should i enter in Database field in a Connect dialog box??

Hi Navneet,
thank you for quick answer but I'm affraid that's not what I wanted to know.
I've already read about PDS and I'm using it to my JDBC Query, now I need want an ordinary SQL Query, so I click on SQL Query icon, then I chose Query Builder and I get this dialog box named "Connection" with 3 fields: User, Password and Database. I've tried many different combination with Database field (more or less covered in PDS document).
Q: Is there possibility to query other DBMS than Oracle through "Query Builder"?

unable to retrieve connection list
- Cannot retrieve connection list. Check the Discoverer application log for more details.
JFYI
Discoverer is installed on the same server as EBS 12i.
Last week we had issues when EBS promoted us to change the passwords of apps, SYSADMIN, APPLSYSPUB and even that of EUL4_US in the system. I am wondering which of these changes could have had an impact on Discoverer. How do I get ebs to recognize the new password of EUL4_US?
Thanks

Hi Mathias
Let me answer at least a couple of your issues:
+3) I have installed Oracle Discoverer Administrator on an XP manchine but at startup, it doesn't display the "Applications checkbox". Did I miss this during installation and can I simply reinstall?+
EUL5_US connects find at this window and I am greeted with the Load Wizard Step 1. Does it mean that to connect as sysadmin, I have to reinstall this BI Discoverer?
You have to enable Discoverer Admin in APPS mode, it does not do it automatically. To do that follow this workflow:
1. Connect to Discoverer Admin as EUL5_US
2. On the Load Wizard Step 1 click the Cancel button
3. From the menu bar select Tools | Options and navigate to the Connection tab
4. Check the button labeled Connect to both standard and application EULs
5. In the box labeled Gateway User enter: applsyspub/pub
6. In the box labeled Foundation Name enter: apps
7. Click the OK button
8. From the menu bar select File | Connect
9. This time you should see the Oracle Applications User check box.
On the XP machine you need to also have the DBC file and tnsnames files. Here's how to enable the DBC security:
1. Create a folder under c:\Oracle called Secure so that you could have: c:\oracle\secure
2. Place your DBC file in this folder
3. Launch Control Panel
4. Select System | Advanced System Settings - this opens the System Properties box
5. Click the Environment Variables button - this opens the Environment Variables box
6. In the bottom half of the screen, labeled System variables click the New button - this opens the New System Variable box
7. In Variable Name enter: FND_SECURE
8. In Variable Value enter: c:\oracle\secure
9. Click the OK button to close the New Variable box
10. Click the OK button to close the Environment Variables box
11. Click the OK button to close the System Properties box
12. Close Control Panel
This should get Discoverer Admin working. Can you check and let me know?
As far as I know there are no additional passwords. If Discoverer Admin can be made to work using SYSADMIN then there is a setup issue on the server. Most likely the FND_SECURE is not picking up the location for the DBC but let's tackle that once we get Admin working.
Best wishes
Michael

Oracle Usage Tracking dialog

hi
After installing JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 (and other 11g versions before that) and starting JDeveloper for the first time, an "Oracle Usage Tracking" dialog is shown with the message
"In order to continuously improve our products, Oracle is interested in learning about product usage. To that end, automated reports can occasionally be sent to Oracle describing the product features in use. No personally identifiable information will be sent and the report will not affect performance. You can review Oracle's privacy policy on our website. "
and a checkbox "Allow automated usage reporting to Oracle".
see the screenshot at http://www.consideringred.com/files/oracle/img/2011/OracleUsageTracking111150.png
- (q1) Where can details be found about this feature, like which information it sends exactly, or when?
- (q2) Has Oracle published anything related to the results of this "Usage Tracking" feature?
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

Hi Jan,
I'm not aware of a public wiki page or anything like that which explains the data being gathered on this feature.
What it does, is create an xml file after each close of the IDE. It records some of the API usage during a session (defined as start to close of the IDE).
The file is saved to this location by default on a windows machine with an install with the "single user" option selected.
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\JDeveloper\system11.1.1.5.37.60.13\o.ide.usages-tracking
You can see what this file gathers if you like, by setting some bogus proxy info in the Tools --> Preference in JDev to stop JDev from being able to connect to the tracking server. Then just doing some normal work and stopping JDeveloper. The file will stay there until it can connect again.
Of course this will only happen if you have opt-in to the usage-reporting in the first place.
The data that is gathered is used internally by the product management team to see which features are used more often in relation to each other, etc. It is not made available publicly.
Here is a report that I just did on my own machine. This is the result of opening an extension.xml file and then opening a .java file.

Error while creating Oracle DB connection in Endeca Intergrator 3.1

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while creating a new Oracle DB connection using Inegtator in 3.1 version.
I get the following exception:
loader constraint violation in interface itable initialization: when resolving method "oracle.jdbc.OracleConnectionWrapper.setWrapper(Loracle/jdbc/OracleConnection;)V" the class loader (instance of org/jetel/util/classloader/GreedyURLClassLoader) of the current class, oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleConnection, and the class loader (instance of org/apache/catalina/loader/StandardClassLoader) for interface oracle/jdbc/OracleConnection have different Class objects for the type oracle/jdbc/OracleConnection used in the signature
we dont have SID but service name and we use like the following in earlier versions:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1556/xx_yy.us.oracle.com
Not sure what is the issue... Any pointers are appreciated!!
Thanks in Advance,
Kartik P.

Could you have installed Integrator ETL Server into the same Tomcat instance as Studio? That's not a supported configuration per http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E40518_01/integrator.311/integrator_install/toc.htm#Installing%20Integrator%20ETL%20Server%20on%20Tomcat : "Integrator ETL Server must be installed on a standalone Apache Tomcat. Do not install Integrator ETL Server on a Tomcat server that is being used to host other applications. For example, do not install Integrator ETL Server on the Tomcat that is hosting Studio. ".

I lost the dial up connection dialog box. I unchecked a check item in the dial connetion box. How do I get the dial up connection back?

I established a dial up connection by updating to automatic the remote managers and telephony in administrative tool services area on my XP system according to firefox help instructions.
At first I had a dial up connection but I unchecked an item in the
dial up connection box. I am not sure what I unchecked or toggled
off. I then lost the dial up connection. I need to get the dial connection dialog box back. What needs to be done
Thank you.

I see no direct connection.. a printer and the computer setup for internet are not related.
But it sounds like the router in the wife's office is now in the wrong mode..
If you have an existing main router replace the second router for a switch .. that is the easy way.
Otherwise you need to bridge the router if it has that option.. most do not. Or use wan bypass.. where you turn off the dhcp server in the router and fix its ip to match the range of the main router.. this is the hassle of using router as a switch.
BUT I am making a huge number of assumptions.
What I need is the full network layout.. a quick picture would help.
I need main modem.. main router.. (maybe same box or different).. make model and current IP address and how dhcp is setup.
I need secondary router.. if that is what it is, IP and settings.
I want the printer type and model. How it is connected.
BTW I much prefer to see a network printer plugged into the network rather than usb.. it is only a matter of sorting the IP settings and driver pointing to the network rather than local.
Or you should think of it as a broken washing machine and call the technician.. who could fix the whole lot in an hour.

SSO is not working - User is missing credentials for connecting to alias

Dear Experts,
I am facing a strange problem in SSO with reference system user mapping. I have configured reference system user mapping for accessing R/3 for ESS/MSS and transactional iviews along with UWL. The SSO was configured 2 months ago and was working fine till yesterday.
Since this Monday, (2 days), the system connection tests are failing on connector. But, ESS/MSS & Transaction iviews with SAP Logon tickets are working fine. But, while trying to access UWL tasks, SSO is failing. Following is the error message -
"Exception occured Exception type:com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.connect.ConnectorException Message:Tue Aug 11 09:46:58 CEST 2009
(Connector) :com.sap.portal.connectivity.destinations.PortalDestinationsServiceException:User is missing credentials for connecting to alias <Aliassystem>. Contact your system administrator. "
I have created a destination for the respective backend in Visual Admin > node > services > Destinations as some tasks are not visible in UWL as per Note- 1133821, 2 weeks ago.It was working fine till yestreday. While testing from destinations, for Connected User(SAP Logon ticket Assertion ticket) , getting the error message -
Error During ping operation:Ticket contain no/an emplty ABAP user id(refer note 1159962). The destination is successfully connected with configured user.
But from the Tracecollector logs, I can see that the mapped user is set in the SAP Logon ticket and the User <ABCD> is existing in the target ECC system. More over, the SSO with refence system user mapping is working fine for ESS/MSS and Transaction based iviews. It is failing only for UWL tasks and also in system connection tests for connector. ITS was failing since the beginning.WAS is successful even now.
Trace file info -
Mapped user [ABCD] set in SAP Logon Ticket. The authenticated user is [<portaluserid>]. Authentication stack: [ticket]..
The created ticket is:
[Ticket [initialized]
Ticket Version = 0
Ticket Codepage = (Encoding=1100)
User = <ABCD>
Issuing System ID    = EPD
Issuing System Client = 000
Creation Time = 200908110746
Valid Time    = 8 h 0 min
Signature (length=261 bytes)
I checked tcode SSO2 in ECC system and it is ready for accepting the logon tickets. The strange thing is single sign on is working for ESS/Transactional iviews and not for UWL. Second thing is UWL was working fine till yesterday morning and stopped working now with SSO problems.
Can you pls advise where to look for fixing the SSO - missing user details for UWL destination?
regards,
Isvarya

Database Table Resource via Oracle RAC connection Manager

Hello,
Our current IDM 8.1 syncs off a HR Database Table using the Database Table connector.
Our DBA's are moving the view into an Oracle RAC environment.
Question: Is there a way for us to connect and sync off our DB table through an Oracle RAC connection manager.
I understand that for the IDM repository, this is possible.
jdbc:oracle:thin@(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(LOAD_BALANCE = ON)
(FAILOVER = ON)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server1.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server2.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = db.com)
servers server1 and server2 are oracle connection managers
Thank you for your input,
-RC

We moved the repository to Oracle RAC recently. The syntax to switch to the new databasecluster was something like this:
lh setRepo -tOracle -ujdbc:oracle:thin:@//dbcluster1.domain:1521/service_idm.oradb.domain -Uwaveset -Pwachtwoord
For the 'lh setRepo' command the old database had to be up, and we had to use the old ojdb5.jar. After that we switched to ojdb6.jar.
One of our resources is a database table with HR data in the same database. The following Database Access Parameters work for us:
Database Type:      Oracle
JDBC Driver:      oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
JDBC URL Template:      jdbc:oracle:thin:@//%h:%p/%d
Host :     dbcluster1.domain
Database: service_idm.oradb.domain
Port: 1521
Greetings,
Marijke
