How to use SQL Developer Debugger

I'm using SQL Developer Version 3.2.20.09 and want to use its debugger option. I tried to get "how to use SQL Developer Debugger" by using google.ca but didn't get any tutorial. I really appreciate if someone suggest me any good and simple tutorial regarding SQL Developer Debugger, Thanks in advance.

How do I make a connection to SQL Server Express using SQL Developer 1.5.3?

How do I make a connection to SQL Server Express using SQL Developer 1.5.3, if it's possible at all?
Also, I received a SQL Server dump file of some sort. Is there any way to read this file in SQL Developer and migrate the db to Oracle? Unfortunately I don't have raw DDL and DML for this database--just some sort of a binary dump file from SQL Server.
Thanks.
Dana

Are you using SQL Developer 1.5.3 or 1.5.4?
If using an older version (i.e. 1.5.3), then you'll have to add a DLL to your environment. This is [ntlauth.dll].
If you don't find this DLL in your SQL Developer directory, then obtain the JDBC SQL SERVER Pluggin (jtds-1.2.2-dist.zip) from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33291&package_id=25350
Copy the ntlmauth.dll in the ...\\...\ide\lib directory (no need to register it).
Note: this approach should work if using DQL Developer 1.5.3 and SQL Server Express 2008

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.

Problem when connecting sql server 2005 using SQL developer

Hi,
I installed Sql developer and I am trying to connect sql server 2005 using windows authentication. I had previously the SSO folder problem saying the path is missing in java.library.path. I copied the SSO folder into Sqldeveloper directory. I changed the settings under computer management->services and applications->sql server configuration manager->sql server 2005 network configuration ->protocols for sqlexpress->I enabled TCP/IP.
Now I am getting an error saying "Failure-can not open user default database.Login Failed. Login failed for user ...".
I am able to connect thru ODBC driver using windows authentication.
Any help on this is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Lakshmi

Hi Martin,
Your solution has solved my problem too. Thanks for posting these workaround fixes :-)
However, there seem to be a problem with datetime fields. The query:
select getdate()
returns something like: oracle.datetimestamp.@1aed4
Is there a way to get around with this? Otherwise, using SQL Developer as a client for SQL Server doesn't serve the right purpose when we cannot access simple date fields :-)

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

Create statspack report using sql*developer

Hello,
While connecting with PERFSTAT user I can not create statspack report using SQL*Developer:
@?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
Error starting at line 1 in command:
@?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
Error report:
Unable to open file: "?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt.sql"
Actually, my problem or question is that how can PERFSTAT user can generate statspack reports from a Client side. What is the other way a non-dba can see the snapshots histroy and generate report (by using perfstat user ) while joing tables or using views?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards

Hi,
for awr reports @?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt (you need EE+Diagnostic Pack) there is a solution.
Grant execute dbms_workload_repository to <user>;
Grant select_catalog_role to <user>;
get all SNAP_IDs
SELECT   TO_CHAR(s.startup_time,'YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS') INSTART_FMT,
         di.instance_name INST_NAME,
         di.db_name DB_NAME,
         s.snap_id SNAP_ID,
         TO_CHAR(s.end_interval_time,'YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS') SNAPDAT,
         s.snap_level LVL
FROM    dba_hist_snapshot s,
         dba_hist_database_instance di
WHERE   di.dbid = s.dbid
         AND di.instance_number = s.instance_number
         AND Di.Startup_Time = S.Startup_Time
ORDER BY snap_id desc;
Select * From Table(Sys.Dbms_Workload_Repository.Awr_Report_Html(DBID, 1, BEGIN_SNAP_ID, END_SNAP_ID));
For statspack i don't know a solutuion. I think the best idea is, create a job to make the statspack report on the server side and access it via external tables or mail them forward to you.
Best regards

HOW TO: Open SQL Developer from a batch file with specific tables opened

I use SQL Developer daily as I develop database intensive programs.
** Question **
How can I define a specific configuration of tabs (i.e. tables, procedures, etc) to be opened upon startup of SQL Developer?
For example, creating a .BAT file to open SQL Developer with a specific set of table tabs already opened. This will save me the time every morning I use to open SQL Developer and configure all the tables I need opened.
NOTE: I have tried various options of appending a table name to a command line starting sqldeveloper.exe. For example: ..\sqldeveloper.exe mydatabase.mytable. However, this only opens a worksheet tab with the name "mydatabase.mytable" but does not open my actual table.
Any help will be appreciated.
- Gary Davis

what version are you using? Sql Dev 1.5?
Not an exact answer, but you could try using Table FILTER
click on your connection
right button on TABLES
click apply filter
as for your question, check out:

SQL Developer not Connecting to Oracle after Updating java

Hi,
I am using Oracle 11gR1. Windows XPsp2 OS. Earlier Sql Developer was connecting successfully to Oracle , but when i updated my java Runtime to 'Update 17' (Of version 6), I am getting problem...Something like vendor problem error(tried to connect many times, also restarted system...but same problem persisted).
BUT, at this time when i am writing this problem, I though to check again that problem and get that actual error message....but surprisingly now that error is resolved automatically as if something magic has happened...
I am continuously connected to internet for last 5 hours.
SO, WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM , AND HOW IT IS RESOLVED AUTOMATICALLY?

Hi ,
once again the same problem. Again i am not able to connect to Sql Developer environment. My JRE is updated to update 18, since then again i am facing the same problem.what could be the possible solution?
The exact error message is "An error was encountered performing the request operation:Io exception:The network Adapter could not establish the connection vendor code 17002"
Thanks

IBM DB2 to Oracle Database Migration Using SQL Developer

Hi,
We are doing migration of the whole database from IBM DB2 8.2 which is running in WINDOWS to Oracle 11g Database in LINUX.
As part of pre-requisites we have installed the Oracle SQL Developer 4.0.1 (4.0.1.14.48) in Linux Server with JDK 1.7. Also Established a connection with Oracle Database.
Questions:
1) How can we enable the Third Party Database Connectivity in SQL Developer?
I have copied the files db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar from the IBM DB2 (Windows) to Oracle (Linux)
2) Will these JAR files are universal drivers? will these jar files will support in Linux platform?
3) I got a DB2 full privileged schema name "assistdba", Shall i create a new user with the same name "assistdba" in the Oracle Database & grant DBA Privillege? (This is for Repository Creation)
4) We have around 35GB of data in DB2, shall i proceed with ONLINE CAPTURE during the migration?
5) Do you have any approx. estimation of Time to migrate a 35 GB of data?
6) In-case of any issue during the migration activity, shall i get an support from Oracle Team (We have a Valid Support ID)?
7) What are all the necessary Test Cases to confirm the status of VALID Migration?
Request you to share the relevant metalink documents!!!
Kindly guide me in-order to go-ahead with the successful migration.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi Klaus,
Continued with the above posts - Now we are doing another database migration from IBM DB2 to Oracle, which is very less of data (Eg: 20 Tables & 22 Indexes).
As like previous database migration, we have done the pre-requirement steps.
DB Using SQL Developer
Created Migration Repository
Connected with the created User in SQL Developer
Captured the Source Database
Converted Captured Model to Oracle
Before Translation Phase we have clicked on the "Proceed Summary"
Captured Database Objects & Converted Database Objects has been created under PROJECT section.
Here while checking the status of captured & converted database objects, It's showing the below chart as sample:

Only after the status is VALID, we can proceed with the Translation & Migration PHASE.
Kindly help us how to approach this issue now.

How to start sql developer

Hi,
I installed the oracle 11 free version in my windows machine couple of days ago. I guess I have forgotten my SID. And now when I am trying to open a connection using sql developer, a dialog pops asking for connection, user, password etc. But I am not sure what to use for connection field. I thought may be I have to use the SID entered during installation. But I have already forgotten that SID. In that circumstances, how to connect to a database using sql developer? I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks.

another way to find out your sid could be to just look in your database folders
...\product\11.1.0\db_1\computername_sid
os if your computername is oracleserver and your service id is orasid then your folder should be
...\product\11.1.0\db_1\oracleserver_orasid
the same is for the folder
...\product\11.1.0\db_1\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_oracleserver _orasid
there is the case that instead of your computer name in the second folder you would see localhost
i apologize for writing someting not eligible to the forums guidelines as has been noticed by another attendee.
but it was a joke anw...

Can you use SQL Developer against non Oracle data bases?

If so, then how do you define the connection for non Oracle data bases?

Look, SQL Developer has got to be a 'gateway' into Oracle DBs from other databases. JDBC allows simple introspection and execution of SQL commands. So the 'explain' button won't be available, or some of the DDL stuff, big deal! Let them get a taste of what they are missing by not having an Oracle database.
If we can get non-Oracle developers (especially MS SQL Server) to use SQL Developer it will expose them to the superiority of the Oracle DB server.
If they have heterogenous services installed they are already an Oracle customer -- we have little additional DB server sale opportunity there. SQL Developer is a really sweet tool and it could be a real draw into the DB server sales.
SQL Developer must be easily usable by non-Oracle customers in order to help us sell the DB server to them!
