ORACLE SQL DEVELOPER and SQLPLUS

How can I run the sqlplus command inside of ORACLE SQL DEVELOPER?
Whe I try to run show SGA command , I get "SQLPLUs command skipped"

jung1975,
I have SQL Developer version 1.0.0.14 installed on my PC.
Under the "Tools" menu, there is a "SQL*Plus" item.
However, you need to have access to the "SQL*Plus" executable.
Since my database server is on a different machine (to my PC), that means I need to have Oracle Client also installed on my PC.
Good Luck,
Avi.

Difference in data retrieved from sql developer and sqlplus prompt

SQL> select distinct snap_time from perfstat.stats$idx_stats;
SNAP_TIME

but using sql developer
select distinct snap_time from perfstat.stats$idx_stats;
SNAP_TIME
21-MAY-07
05-JUN-07
13-JUN-07
but can anyone explain the difference because it's the same database

Check your DBA_JOBS see if there's any auto statspack collection job.

The connection export function it's available in 2.1.1.64, you need to right click on the main Connections node, and it will allow you to export all or part of the current connections, or import from a previously exported file.
As for the highlight statement feature it's available in SQLDeveloper; actually you do not even have to highlight the required statement, as long as you take the habit of ending every statement with a ";", in this case you only need to place the caret inside the statement and SQLDeveloper will automatically highlight it for you (if you want to manually highlight a statement you can still do so without problems).
Finally as a last try to solve your connection problem without having to call for network support you could try to check
Preferences -> Database -> Advanced -> Use OCI/Thick DriverThis will force SQLDeveloper to use your oracle client for connections instead of it's native JDBC based connections (even if you use TNS based connections you will still use JDBC unless you have this checked).
As for other graphical tools for Oracle there are many both free or for a price.
1) In the for price world Toad stands out, i heard of a free option too but I'm not sure of the limitations.
2) For free you can use DBVisualizer which is fairly good (never used it too much thou).
3) Finally there is SQuirreL which is both free and open source but it has fairly basic functionality compared to the two above.
Obviously there are many others, but IMHO few will provide you with the same functions of SQLDeveloper or Toad for Oracle databases

Calling procedure works in SQL Developer, but returns error elsewhere?!

Hi there!
I try to call a procedure with this code snippet:
begin
p_snap_op.add_change_log(vi_cart_no => 'Cart 2341',
vi_operation => 'Change',
vi_info_source => 'Testsource',
vi_comment => 'Testcomment',
vi_refg_id => '1112',
vi_snap_id => null,
vi_snix_id => null,
vi_snsy_id => null);
end;
this works just fine in Oracle SQL Developer and sqlplus. In PLSQL Developer, I get an ORA-ERROR 001036 returned, saying there's an invalid variable name or number. How comes?

Hi,
yup, that was the problem. PL/SQL Developer has this great feature with bind variables in an extra panel. Unfortunatelly, nobody told me :-(
This code (and every other one that I wrote so far) now works fine.
Thanks for your help.

Interactive report performance problem over database link - Oracle Gateway

Hello all;
This is regarding a thread Interactive report performance problem over database link that was posted by Samo.
The issue that I am facing is when I use Oracle function like (apex_item.check_box) the query slow down by 45 seconds.
query like this: (due to sensitivity issue, I can not disclose real table name)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,b.col3)
, a.col1
, a.col2
FROM table_one a
, table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND a.col4 = 100
AND b.col5 = a.col5
table_one and table_two are remote tables (non-oracle) which are connected using Oracle Gateway.
Now if I run above queries without apex_item.checkbox function the query return or response is less than a second but if I have apex_item.checkbox then the query run more than 30 seconds. I have resolved the issues by creating a collection but it’s not a good practice.
I would like to get ideas from people how to resolve or speed-up the query?
Any idea how to use sub-factoring for the above scenario? Or others method (creating view or materialized view are not an option).
Thank you.
Shaun S.

Hi Shaun
Okay, I have a million questions (could you tell me if both tables are from the same remote source, it looks like they're possibly not?), but let's just try some things first.
By now you should understand the idea of what I termed 'sub-factoring' in a previous post. This is to do with using the WITH blah AS (SELECT... syntax. Now in most circumstances this 'materialises' the results of the inner select statement. This means that we 'get' the results then do something with them afterwards. It's a handy trick when dealing with remote sites as sometimes you want the remote database to do the work. The reason that I ask you to use the MATERIALIZE hint for testing is just to force this, in 99.99% of cases this can be removed later. Using the WITH statement is also handled differently to inline view like SELECT * FROM (SELECT... but the same result can be mimicked with a NO_MERGE hint.
Looking at your case I would be interested to see what the explain plan and results would be for something like the following two statements (sorry - you're going have to check them, it's late!)
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two),
sourceqry AS
(SELECT b.col3 x
       , a.col1 y
       , a.col2 z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM sourceqry
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5If the remote tables are at the same site, then you should have the same results. If they aren't you should get the same results but different to the original query.
We aren't being told the real cardinality of the inners select here so the explain plan is distorted (this is normal for queries on remote and especially non-oracle sites). This hinders tuning normally but I don't think this is your problem at all. How many distinct values do you normally get of the column aliased 'x' and how many rows are normally returned in total? Also how are you testing response times, in APEX, SQL Developer, Toad SQLplus etc?
Sorry for all the questions but it helps to answer the question, if I can.
Cheers
Ben

Trying to query data from a view - ORA-01882 and ORA-02063 Errors

Hey there,
I tried to query data from a view that was provided by a colleague. This view works fine and gives correct data using PL/SQL Developer or SQLPLUS, but in SQL Developer, I get the following error:
ORA-01882: Time zone region not found
ORA-02063: preceding line from SYSTOOLS
01882.00000 - "timezone region %s not found"
* Cause: Specified reason name was not found
* Action: Please contact Oracle Customer Support
Vendor Code 1882
Where comes this error message from?! SYSTOOLS is the database link.
Can't see an obvious reason for this error.
OS is Windows 2000 SP4, SQL Developer is v1.1.1.25 BUILD MAIN-25.14

Poor query performance with BETWEEN

I'm using Oracle Reports 6i.
I needed to add Date range parameters (Starting and Ending dates) to a report. I used lexicals in the Where condition to handle the logic.
If no dates given,
Start_LEX := '/**/' and
End_LEX := '/**/'
If Start_date given,
Start_LEX := 'AND t1.date >= :Start_date'
If End_date given,
End_LEX := 'AND t1.date <= :End_date'
When I run the report with no dates or only one of the dates, it finishes in 3 to 8 seconds.
But when I supply both dates, it takes > 5 minutes.
So I did the following
If both dates are given and Start_date = End date,
Start_LEX := 'AND t1.date = :Start_date'
End_LEX := '/**/'
This got the response back to the 3 - 8 second range.
I then tried this
if both dates are given and Start_date != End date,
Start_LEX := 'AND t1.date BETWEEN :Start_date AND :End_date'
End_LEX := '/**/'
This didn't help. The response was still in the 5+ minutes range.
If I run the query outside of Oracle Reports, in PL/SQL Developer or SQLplus, it returns the same data in 3 - 8 seconds in all cases.
Does anyone know what is going on in Oracle Reports when a date is compared with two values either separately or with a BETWEEN? Why does the query take approx. 60 times as long to execute?

Hi,
Observe access plan first by using BETWEEN as well as using <= >=.
Try to impose logic of using NVL while forming lexical parameters.

specifically I'm trying to use the new functionality of putting a pl/sql function in the WITH clause of an SQL statement:
docco here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16655_01/server.121/e17209/statements_10002.htm#BABJFIDC
the example they give is:
WITH
FUNCTION get_domain(url VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
pos BINARY_INTEGER;
len BINARY_INTEGER;
BEGIN
pos := INSTR(url, 'www.');
len := INSTR(SUBSTR(url, pos + 4), '.') - 1;
RETURN SUBSTR(url, pos + 4, len);
END;
SELECT DISTINCT get_domain(catalog_url)
FROM product_information;
and so I produced my own hello world version:
with function add_number(num1 number, num2 number) return number is
begin
   return num1 + num2;
end;
select add_number(1,2) from dual;
but this just doesn't compile in SQL developer or SQLPlus.   do I need to get an updated version or something perhaps?
output is:

Direct Database Request Error: illegal number at oci

Hello, all.
In Oracle BI Answers i get an error by building an direct database request: illegal number at oci.....
The reason of error is in expression to_char((date_1-date_2)*24, '9990.99')
The error disappears if i write expression to_char((date_1-date_2)/*24*/, '9990.99')
BI doesn`t understand multiplying in SQl request?

Hi,
Couple of suggestions :
1) Run your direct database queries in a SQL editor (SQL Developer, TOAD, SQLplus) etc to confirm the query runs OK - be carefull with Toad or SQL Dev - you want to return the entire dataset, not just the first xxxxK rows these tools tend to bring back, they sometimes hide the problem 'row' which maybe is causing the error.
2) Once the error is returned via straight up SQL , maybe try the database / SQL forum as your problem I think lies there, not with the BI Server.
3) My one stop shop for Oracle date arithmetic : http://www.akadia.com/services/ora_date_time.html
4) assuming the SQL returns correctly, report back to us so we can help with OBIEE specific issues !
what time period are you trying to bring back between your date 1 and date 2 ?
Hope this helps a little,
Alastair

Dev Days Tutorials : Can't log into Apex and Can't connect to Ora server

Hello All,
I downloaded the pre-built Oracle VM from Developer Days. The setup works fine. I am now trying to follow hands on labs. There are a couple of things I am stuck at (at the very beginning).
1. The link to http://localhost:8080/apex does not work. Browser failes to connect. I suppose this is a required step continue labs.
2. In SQL Developer (I am familiar with this app), I can't create a connection. I tried using SYSDBA, SYSOPER as user names with oracle as password, but can't go anywhere. One of the items in lab is to unlock the account 'hr'. SQL Developer and sqlplus won't let me log in.
One of the things I noticed when the VM boots is a message saying Oracle Listener is not set up and (probably) won't be starting.
I would appreciate if anyone would help with items above. Thanks in Advance.
Ravi

I think the link is actually http://localhost:8888/apex well this one works for me anyway, using the Developer Day "Database App Development" downloadable VM

How to convert SQL*Plus reports to SQLDeveloper?

Hello,
I installed Oracle 11g and found that SQLPLUSW.EXE was not there.
I have many scripts, reports, developed in SQLPLUS.
How can I convert my reports to run in SQL Developer and produce the same nice output?
It seems that SQLDev does not support columns formatting, TTITLE, BTITLE, BREAK, all the nice SQLPLUS stuff.
Any ideas other than installing Oracle10g and running good old SQLPLUS?
Thank you,
YG

Hi YG,
Based on your comments, you have either experimented a bit or read some forum posts like these:
Re: sqlplusw.exe not found
SQLPLUS commands in SQL Developer
Perhaps you could use the command line version of SQL*Plus (sqlplus.exe) which is still available in 11g and just spool the output?

OTN Toolbar v1.0 for Internet Explorer

I have dwonloaded the OTN Toolbar v1.0 for Internet Explorer, but I haven't get all features of OTN (including downloads,sql, sample code, documentation, and discussion forums.
I only get the search button and the short cut to otn.
Why?

Sven,
Thanks for your note - A quick question, which version of IE are you using, 4,5,6? and to which level of SP?
Also do you currently have any oracle software installed, e.g. database, developer tools, SQLPlus?
