Desc not working in SQL Developer Version 1.1.3 Build 27.69

Hi All,
I am using Oracle SQL Developer Version 1.1.3 Build 27.69
select count(*) from abccount(*)
100
using desc / describe table name gives error
desc abcERROR:
ERROR: object abc does not exist
1 rows selected
I am able to perform select on the table but not desc/describe. I tried suffixing with schema name , still the same error persists.
Kindly provide a workaround
Tnx

Well 1.1.3 is quite old.
The best thing to do IMHO is to update to the latest version, it will also enable a load of new features and fixes.

  • Code completion(insight) not working in SQL Developer Version 2.1.1.64

    I recently downloaded SQL developer Version 2.1.1.64. However the code completion feature is not working automatically. I have checked the Automatically complete code in SQL worsheet checkbox under Tools->Preferences-> Code Editor-> Completion Insight.
    Strangely, I get the code completion pop up window when I explicitly press the completion insight shortcut(Ctrl + Space).
    Please help.
    Thanks and Regards.

  • File- Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13

    File->Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13.
    I downloaded sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213.ZIP and extract to a local directory. From the extracted directory I ran ..\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe from Windows XP sp2. The program itself seems to run just fine but File-Print doesn't do anything. In Help-About, Java Platform is reported as 1.5.0_06 and Oracle IDE is 1.2.1.3213. I'm not sure where to look for what is causing the problem.
    Thanks

    I hadn't tried CTRL-P before but I did today. On the first attempt, I saw a small jump in the memory usage for sqldeveloper.exe as reported in Windows Task Manager. Otherwise, there was no change. A second CTRL-P in the same session produced a further bump but subsequent attempts in the same session produced no further change in CPU or Memory Usage.
    Using Task Manager to monitor this further, I tried File->Print again and saw that sqldeveloper would periodically climb to 1 or 2 percent CPU and consume a little more memory. After a minute or so, though, all activity stops again.
    I do not get a print dialog box from SQLDeveloper using either CTRL-P or File->Print

  • Filter not working in SQL Developer 2.1

    I have just upgraded to SQL Developer 2.1 and there seems to be a problem with filtering information in the Data tab. The filters I type in are simply ignored. Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?

    I am running XP Pro 2002 with SP3 installed.
    The DB information is below:
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bi
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
    "CORE     10.2.0.3.0     Production"
    TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
    It will occasionally work when I first log in but generally stops working after the first filtered retrieve. From then on the filter line on the toolbar is just ignored. Entering incorrect sql statements does not produce any errors either. Once it starts it is consistent across all tables.
    The filter option on the header of each column still works, that is the only reason I have not gone back to V1.5.

  • Backspace key not working on SQL Developer 3.2.20.09 on Mac OS X 10.7.4

    Hi,
    I've searched around and found that the backspace and arrow key problem has been a known issue on 1.x versions of SQL Developer. In that version the fix was to reload the keyboard Accellerator bindings in Tools->Preferences->Accellerators. However, the Accellerator dialog isn't available on 3.2.2 version. Is there any other way to fix it? I know on some Macs, the keys work fine.
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    The Accelerator feature was renamed. Rather than
    Tools->Preferences->Accelerators -> Load Presettry instead
    Tools->Preferences-> Shortcut Keys -> More Actions -> Load Keyboard SchemeHopefully reloading in 3.2.2 will have the same impact as in the 1.x releases for your issue.

  • Code insight not working in sql developer 1.1.0.23

    i just downloaded today. insight options all checked in preferences section. popup time set to less than a second. i get nothing to work in sql worksheet or while modifying a package body.

    Hello,
    You should see things from this side sometimes ;-) It's a small team, working hard, very focused! Yes, there is indeed a sense of urgency and we are testing a patch SQL Developer 1.1 at the moment. There is always the battle between wanting to get an updated release to you, the community, quickly, and delaying to ensure what you get is good.
    Code insight, performance and many other issues have been addressed in this patch.
    As for your other point, we want the tool to be lightweight, easy to install, easy to use with a clear user interface. Perhaps there'll be a new battle when adding features, but that's the goal.
    Regards
    Sue

  • DB Link not working from SQL Developer

    Hi All,
    I Have two databases say A and B. My DBA has created a DB link and when he logs in to sqlplus directly on the server and he can get the values from the other database. When I'm to get the values from the other database through SQL Developer from my client machine, it is giving me ORA-12154: TNS :could not resolve the connection identifier specified.
    I can access both the databases without any problem and i have the entries for bath in my TNSNAMES.ORA file.
    Thanks in advance.

    Check the dblink ddl. your tnsnames.ora should have exact same word as dblink_authentication as below.
    create public dblink dblink_name connect to username identified by password dblink_authentication;

  • MS Access 2010 and Oracle SQL Developer Version 4.0.3.16 Error

    OS: Windows 7 Enterprise
    System Type: 64-bit Operating System
    I can not get MS Access 2010 to work/open with SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16.
    ERROR when testing connection to MS Access 2010
    "Status : Failure -Test failed: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
    I added the 32-bit ODBC data source for the MS Access I am trying to use with SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 with the "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe" application, but I still get the same error.
    I appears that SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16.is looking at the 64-bit driver (ODBC Data Source) and I have no idea to direct SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 to use the 32-bit driver (ODBC Data Source) when opening MS Access 2010.
    Thank you in advance for your advice.

    I downloaded the SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 "sqldeveloper-4.0.3.16.84-x64.zip" that included the jre.
    How do I check which Java JDK I am running (32-bit versuns 64-bit)?
    In the command prompt I use "java -version" and I get this message "java is not recognized as an internal or external command"

  • Which sql developer version will support oracle 8.1.7

    hi
    which sql developer version will support oracle 8.1.7 or is it necessary to use plsql developer to connect to database (oracle 8.1.7)

    Hi,
    SQL Developer version 1.2.1 is able to connect to 8.1.7 with limited functionality (prepared reports and browser for objects could not work)..
    Next version (tested with 3.2 64-bit) of SQL developer could be "hacked" to connect to 8.1.7 by simply copy file C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip from Oracle client prior 11
    into appropriate jdk\jre\lib\ext folder.

  • Default path for scripts within SQL Developer version 3.2.20.09.87

    I have SQL Developer version 3.2.20.09.87 and needed to know if the 'Set default path to look for scripts' be a UNC path?
    Thanks

    I hadn't tried it but now I did and it worked.
    I also tried setting the Utilities Export default file location to a UNC path and I was able to set it but when I try to go to it via the 'browse' button, it doesnt go to it. It does, however, use it when I export.
    Also when I do File > Open, I'm not able to navigate to UNC paths via the 'Home' or 'Desktop' buttons on the left hand side of the window and am not able to navigate to a network location from the 'Locations' box.
    Any ideas? I am on Windows 7.
    Thanks

  • Unit Test exports between different SQL Developer versions

    Hi,
    I am having problems with trying to export and import unit test suites between SQL Developer versions. I can't find any documentation in this area. We have a number of unit test suites exported as XML files from version 2.1.1.64, and below are combinations of things I have tried:
    - I have tried to import a unit test suite into version 3.0.0.4 that was exported from version 2.1.1.64 and get the error "Import failed. unexpected null value". I expect that this is probably an unsupported action due to repository changes between the two versions - should I be able to do this?
    - I have upgraded the repository with unit tests in it. The unit tests run perfectly well in the upgraded repository. However, if I try to export any suites or individual tests, I get an error "Export failed.". A XML file is created but with what looks like only the header part of it.
    - I have created a new unit test suite in version 3.0.0.4 and this exports successfully.
    - I have gone into each test of a suite in the upgraded repository and made a change so that I can perform a commit. When I do an export, this does then work successfully.
    Therefore it appears that something is not carried out by default when the repository is upgraded, but this fixes itself if the test is amended and committed in the upgraded repository. Although this may be a workaround, we have 100's of tests and is not something I really want to do. Has anyone else experienced this and got any recommendations for this?
    Thanks, Pierre.

    Around a month ago, a similar question appeared on Jeff's block... look for checkText in http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/ask-a-question/
    There was no resolution there, so (as the SQL Developer code in that area has not changed) I would tend to think it might have something to do with
    1. Your Locale affecting the Formatter class's parsing of that pattern; or
    2. A bug in the jdk version in use, probably also related to the Locale.
    I recommend upgrading to the latest jdk1.7.0_xx update.  If that does not solve the issue, then try changing the Locale.

Maybe you are looking for
