Help with starting sql developer

Hi everyone
I have had oracle express and sql developer on my laptop before untill my hard drive went, now iv installed them again but when I start sql developer I make a new connection then go to create a new user, but when I click create new user, there is no list under the "Roles" tab as there should be, its just a blank grey screen. Has anyone had this problem before who might be able to help?
I am kind of in a rush because I need it for a college assesment on monday so any help will be really appreciated:)
Thanks
Ryan

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you post you need to provide the full sql developer that you are using and all of the details about what you are doing and the problem you are having.
You haven't provided the version, what user you are connnecting as, what type of connection it is (normal, sysdba), the type of connection you are connecting as (thin, oci), the JDBC jar version if using one, the Oracle client or server versions.

  • How to start sql developer(1.1) on mac osx

    After download and unzip it, just double-click the sqldeveloper icon, doesn't it?
    But after i double-click it, there is an icon on the bottom for a while, very soon. then it disappears.
    Any help will be highly apprecaited!!!

    Hi
    I've got the same error starting SQL Developer 1.1.2 on mac os 10.4.9. In my case this was because I've had a blank in the path.
    I've initialy located my SQL Developer on a USB Stick with the name "no name" which was mounted on /Volumes/no name path to SQL Dev was /Volume/no name/oracle/sqldeveloper/......
    After changing the name of the stick to noname the path has changed to /Volume/noname/oracle/sqldeveloper/.....
    and then everything worked fine.
    An other hint, If you copy sqldeveloper.sh into sqldeveloper.command you may start the Developer with a double click.
    By the way, I'm using the multiplattform package of the SQL Developer and put it on a USB Stick. I'm now able to take one copy of SQL Developer and Configuration with me and start it on Mac OS and/or Windows.

  • 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.

    It appears the SVN plug-in is giving you troubles, normally you should be able to disable it from
    Tools -> Preferences -> Extensions -> Versioning SupportAssuming you do not need it.
    Since your system is no longer starting you might have to manually remove the related jar file from the installation, this file is usually located in:
    [SQLDev_install_dir]/jdev/extensionsand it's name is:
    oracle.jdeveloper.subversion.jar

  • Small bug and fix starting SQL Developer on Mac OS X

    I couldn't find anyone else mentioning this so I'll write it in.
    If I started SQL Developer in one user I couldn't start it again in another user, even after quitting out of the first. I would double click the icon and it would do the animated "zoom" but then nothing.
    I tracked it down to a problem in SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS/sqldeveloper.sh. When it redirects the output of the call to the start scipt in the /sqldeveloper/bin directory it would fail because the /tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.log was owned by the first user to start the App (since the /tmp was cleared anyway). My umask didn't give it permission to start overwriting that file.
    To fix it I changed the last line in SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS/sqldeveloper.sh to:
    bash ./sqldeveloper >/tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.$$.log
    so that the PID was now part of the name and each initiation of SQL Developer would have its own.
    You could also change the last line to:
    bash ./sqldeveloper >$(mktemp /tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.log.XXXXX)
    which would guarantee more uniqueness but wouldn't let you know which process was using the file.
    Savvy Mac users can edit the script themselves by right-clicking on the SQLDeveloper.app and selecting "Show Package Contents". You may have to temporarily change the file permissions to let you edit it.
    For the record I'm running SQL Developer 1.2.0 on a Mac TiBook G4 867MHz with Mac OS X 10.4.10 and 1Gb RAM (and it is still maddeningly slow because Java fundamentally sucks).
    -Bion

    Ok - I think I found it.
    Go into ~/Library/Application Support/SQL Developer/system1.5.3.57.83/o.ide.11.1.1.0.22.49.44 (or similar for whatever version you're running) and edit the settings.xml file there.
    Look for a block that looks like:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
    <first class="java.lang.String">delete-previous</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
    <data>
    <Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">[0]</Item>
    </data>
    </second>
    </Item>
    and change it to:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
    <first class="java.lang.String">delete-previous</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
    <data>
    <Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">[8]</Item>
    </data>
    </second>
    </Item>
    I'm not sure why, but this file seems to always contain the incorrect keystroke value when I do a fresh install of SQL Developer. I always have to go in and change that value by hand. I've tried choosing any number of the accelerator presets, but none of them make the delete key work.

  • Help with an SQL Query on the Logger

    I had a problem getting it to run in Ubuntu when launching from an XFCE launcher. Basically the file sqldeveloper doesn't work. What I did was to copy sqldeveloper to SQLDeveloper, change the ./ to the full path ( in my case /home/username/sqldeveloper/ ), then launch SQLDeveloper instead of sqldeveloper. Then it all worked fine.

  • MSVCR100.dll missing on your computer when starting SQL Developer

    Hello,
    I receive the error MSVCR100.dll is missing on your computer when I try to start SQL Developer.
    I completed the following installations:
    - Windows Server 2008 R2
    - Oracle DB Express Edition
    - Java JDK 1.7.0_02
    When I now try to start SQL Developer I receive the error message that MSVRC100.dll is missing on my computer.
    Does anybody experience the same problem and how can it be resolved.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Not sure what happened to that link, but I as far as I know it should make absolutely no difference for security purposes if one chooses the latest Java 7 update or the the latest Java 6 update. I would guess both code lines are patched to same level.
    Perhaps you are referring to recent press about vulnerabilities in Java 7 updates _06 and _07? Those issues only apply to browser plug-ins, totally unrelated to SQL Developer, and those can be disabled easily without removing Java.
    The official recommendation is to use the latest Java 6 update (jdk1.6.0-35) for SQL Developer. We recommend avoiding Java 7 due to bugs, but bugs unrelated to security.

    Gary

  • Create connection with Oracle SQL Developer

    Hello,
    my test to connect my Oracle database with SQL*PLUS works. Here I need only the username (I test with system), my password and the hostname (orcl).
    Now I want to create this connection with the SQL Developer.
    Here I need the Port. I don't know the port of my database. How can I find it out?

    Hi, the port must be the used by listener, review the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora file or get the listener status(lsnrctl status) for get the correct port.
    You can try with the default port. (1521).
    Luck.
    Havea good day.

  • Newbie - need help with a SQL query for a bar chart

    Hi,
    I'm a new user on APEX with no real SQL knowledge and I'm trying to build a dashboard with charts into an existing APEX application. Based on another application, I have come up with the following SQL code:
    select null link
    , CATEGORY label
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'1',PROJECT_ID))"Active"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'2',PROJECT_ID))"Complete"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'3',PROJECT_ID))"On Hold"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'4',PROJECT_ID))"Pipeline"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'5',PROJECT_ID))"Pending Review"
    from GRAPO_PROHEADTRK
    where (PROJECT_STATUS='1' or PROJECT_STATUS='2' or PROJECT_STATUS='3' or PROJECT_STATUS='4' or PROJECT_STATUS='5' or PROJECT_STATUS='6')
    group by CATEGORY
    Order by COUNT(PROJECT_ID) DESC
    The code from the other app was:
    select null link
    , FUNCTIONAL_AREA label
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'Active',PROJECT_ID))"Active"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'Complete',PROJECT_ID))"Complete"

    where LOB='S2S' and (FUNCTIONAL_AREA='Accounts Payable' or FUNCTIONAL_AREA='Expense' or FUNCTIONAL_AREA='Procurement' or FUNCTIONAL_AREA='Fixed Assets')
    group by FUNCTIONAL_AREA
    Order by COUNT(PROJECT_ID) DESC
    I'm getting a "Failed to parse SQL query!" error when I try to run validation.
    Is this enough info for some assistance? Any help would really be appreciated.

    Hello,
    This is more of an SQL question, rather than specifically APEX-related. It's notable that you say: I'm a new user on APEX with no real SQL knowledgeWhich is fine (we all have to start somewhere, afterall) but it might be worth de-coupling the problem from APEX in the first instance. I'd also strongly recommend either taking a course, reading a book (e.g. http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=r5vbGgz7TFsC&printsec=frontcover&dq=Mastering+Oracle+SQL&hl=en#v=onepage&q=Mastering%20Oracle%20SQL&f=false) or looking for a basic SQL tutorial - it will save you a whole lot of heartache, I promise you. Search the oracle forums for the terms "Basic SQL Tutorial" and you should come up with a bunch of results.
    Given that you've copied your query template from another, I would suggest ensuring that the actual query works first of all. Try running it in either:
    * SQL Editor
    * SQL*Plus
    * an IDE like SQL Developer (available free from the OTN: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html ) or TOAD or similar.
    You may find there are syntax errors associated with the query - it's difficult to tell without looking at your data model.
    select null link
    , CATEGORY label
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'1',PROJECT_ID))"Active"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'2',PROJECT_ID))"Complete"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'3',PROJECT_ID))"On Hold"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'4',PROJECT_ID))"Pipeline"
    , count (decode(PROJECT_STATUS,'5',PROJECT_ID))"Pending Review"
    from GRAPO_PROHEADTRK
    where (PROJECT_STATUS='1' or PROJECT_STATUS='2' or PROJECT_STATUS='3' or PROJECT_STATUS='4' or PROJECT_STATUS='5' or PROJECT_STATUS='6')
    group by CATEGORYNote that your "order by" clause references a field called "PROJECT_ID", which exists in the old query but you've changed other similar references to "PROJECT_STATUS" - is it possible you've just missed this one? The perils of copy-paste coding I'm afraid...
