Install sql developer

Hi,
I'm on W'XP machine trying to install Oracle SQL Developer, I did downloaded most recent version but it doesn't have as call "Connection tab" to make new connection !
My version is 2.1.1.64 for Windows 32b. FILE/NEW/CONNECTION doesn't work either.
do I need any other oracle client to be installed ? Or do any other changes to path,etc..
Can anybody give ad advice what coudbe wrong, should I try lower version?

If you do not have a tab titled 'Connections', and clicking on menu 'View -> Connections' does not bring one up, then you have a bad 'install'. Possibly need to download again. Or possibly you ignored the 'where is the Java.exe' box, or pointed it to the wrong java.exe.
If you DO have the connection tab, right-click on the 'Connections' work in that column and follow the instructions at http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/08-may/o38sql.html

  • Issue Install SQL Developer - Windows 7 64 Bit

    I am trying to install SQL Developer 3.2 on my Windows 7 - 64 bit laptop. When I attempt to install and put in the Java path I get the following error:
    "Cannot find a J2SE SDK installed at path: ;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0\bin."
    I tried using the version 6 path and it did not work either.
    Can someone please advise?
    Thanks for your help!
    NS

    Does your path really start with ';' - if so, that's wrong.
    Also, take out the \bin, should look something like this
    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_05

  • How to install SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.1 for Mac OS X?

    How do I install SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.1 for Mac OS X? I downloaded the file "datamodeler-3.1.1-703-macosx.gz" from OTN, but there is only a single file inside this archive - "datamodeler-3.1.1-703-macosx". What am I missing here?
    Thanks in advance...

    Extract that file and then run it.
    Once you installed the tool to your Applications folder (if you choose to move it to Applications), you'll need to install Java (maybe).
    What version of OS X are you on?
    In a command window/terminal, type 'java -version'
    If you get something back like 'java version "1.6..." then you're all good.
    If you're on Mountain Lion, then type 'java' instead. That should download java for you.
    Once you've got java available, then launch SQL Developer Data Modeler.
    The installation notes are here if you want the official list of instructions

    Did you create a database though?
    Installing Oracle doesn't necessarily mean you have a database.

  • Problem while installing sql developer

    Hi,
    I am trying to install SQL Developer for the first time on my machine with
    OS : WinXP Professional Service Pack 2
    Configuration : Intel Pentium 4 1.50 Ghz, 512 MB RAM
    Database: Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0
    PC Type: LAN PC
    I download both the versions described below for installation in my PC:
    1. Oracle SQL Developer for Windows
    2. Oracle SQL Developer for Windows, with JDK 1.5 already installed
    But when i start setup, It asks me to locate the path of Java Executable in both the cases.. and when i give path of java.exe which is installed as a part of Oracle installation on my PC it gives me the error:
    "Java 1.3 not supported.. pls. install Java 1.5"
    can you pls let me know if winXP has builtin Java1.5 support? Also in Oracle's Java\bin folder has java.exe which when selected gives me the same above error.. is there anyway to get around this?
    thx

    Are you sure you downloaded the correct archive ?
    Download sqldeveloper from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/sql/index.html
    - extract sqldeveloper.zip into any folder, using folder names
    - within that folder, open the sqldeveloper folder
    - double-click sqldeveloper.exe

  • Installing sql developer

    I have downloaded sql developer and while installing it was asking for the java path to be specified and on providing the java path(c:\Program Files (x86)\java\jre6\bin\java.exe) , it was raising the error saying
    "Cannot find a J2SE SDK installed at path (c:\Program Files (x86)\java\jre6.)
    Request you guys to let me know the possible solution or an workaround for the same.
    Advance Thanks

    Hi,
    J2SE SDK -> Java 2 Standard Edition Software Development Kit, aka, the JDK -> Java Development Kitas opposed to the
    JRE -> Java Runtime Environmentis what SQL Developer needs to run. Try installing the latest Java 6 update (jdk1.6.0_35).
    SQL Developer and Java 7 don't play well together (yet).

  • Problem in launching newly installed SQL Developer in Linux

    In order to install ORacle SQL Developer for linux, I tried to install JDK 5.0 according to the instruction. I downloaded the files and installed it. But when running the sqldeveloper, I got the error message:
    Error: This product requires a Java(TM) Platform 5.0 runtime.
    You are using 1.4.2 from /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-1.4.2.0/jre
    Yes, in directory /usr/lib/jvm, there are:
    java-1.4.2-gcj-1.4.2.0, jre, jre-1.4.2, jre-1.4.2-gcj, jre-gcj
    But rpm -qa|grep jdk returned:
    jdk-1.5.0_10-fcs
    How can I resolve this issue?

    you are running SQL Developer using gcc's runtime environment.
    just set JAVA_HOME to the dir where jdk1.5 is installed, then PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH, and it should work.

    Helios, IMO you've moved this thread too quickly. The issue really isn't with sqldev, but with the DB installation, so it should go to the Installation forum instead (Database Installation

  • Problem install SQL Developer in my iMac

    Hello everybody!!
    I´m a Spanish guy who is starting in the world of databases. This is my first year studying and I´ve always used SQL Developer on Windows but now I would like to use it on Mac.
    I have installed the SQL Developer but when I try to create a new connection I get an error message, it says something like:
    _"Error de E/S: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection"_
    But is very strange for me because in Windows when I want to create a new connection, first of this, I have to create a new user in the SYSTEM connection, but now in Mac this connection (SYSTEM) doesn´t exist.
    There are a lot changes between Windows´s version to Mac´s version.... can anyone help me please??
    Thanks for your attention and excuse me for my English hehe!

    Hi betico,
    I have no idea if Oracle 10g Release 2 for Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 might also install and run properly on OS X 10.7.3. I do not use a Mac, but probably your best path forward is to use ...
    Oracle VM Virtual Box:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html
    to run a VM image packaged for a recent Oracle Technology Network Developer Day workshop:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/databaseappdev-vm-161299.html
    That VM includes Oracle 11g2 Release 2, SQL Developer, and so on. And if you wish to run SQL Developer directly on OS X, you can still connect to the database running within the VM by altering the VM's network configuration to use a bridged adapter. Here is a post from another thread that discusses that:

  • Installing SQL developer on windows 7

    Hi all,
    Please has anybody successfully installed Oracle SQL developer on windows 7 (64 bit system)? I have been trying to do that for some time now but it has not worked out? I even downloaded the beta version of JDK i.e. JDK version 7 on advice from a google user. Here, there was an instruction that I need to change the file to make it executable which I don't know how to do. Can someone help me out here?

    Hi,
    I have also installed on windows 7 but the screen refresh rate is pretty bad.
    By this I mean have a lot of SQL in the SQL editor and scrolling up and down in the box. We use this as a development tool and it is stopping the roll out of Windows 7 to the development team.
    Is there a work around to this or is anyone else experiencing this problem. ?
    By the way Java version is
    java version "1.6.0_17"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.3-b01, mixed mode, sharing)
    Any help appreciated.

  • Trouble installing/using SQL Developer on Windows 2008 R2

    I need help installing sql developer.
    I am running Windows 2008 R2.
    I tried installing the 64 bit version, and when it asked for the path to the JDK, it complains that it doesn't exists. Can someone PLEASE point me to which JDK I need to install?
    I tried installing the 32 bit versionand it installs fine, but then gives me the error that it can't load AMD 64-bit dll on a IA 32 bit platform.
    PLEASE HELP. How can I run SQL Developer on Windows 2008 R2?
    Links to the exact versions of what to install would be very very helpful.
    Thank you!

    The versions required are in the release notes.
    If you install the 64-bit SQLDeveloper you need a 64-bit JDK.
    If you install the 32-bit SQLDeveloper you need a 32-bit JDK.
    If your operating is 32-bit, you need a 32-bit SQLDeveloper.
    Note that you need a JDK not a JRE

  • Install Oracle XE, SQL Developer, and Toad on the same machine?

    I have been trying to install Oracle SQL Developer, Toad, and Oracle Express on my work computer. Installing SQL Developer and Toad was pretty straightforward, and I was able to browse the XE database with SQL Developer. But after installing Toad, problems started. Toad was using Oracle XE's registry settings to locate ORACLE_HOME and oci.dll. So I tried changing the settings for Oracle XE in the registry. Toad now works, but not Oracle XE. And while I was going through this all, I even had a time when I had Toad and oracle xe working, but not SQL Developer. It almost looks like you can choose two of the products, but not all three.
    So, my question to the community at large is "Can it be done?". In what directories do you have each product installed? What environment variables do you have set? Where is your tnsnames.ora? What Oracle registry settings do you have set (namely HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE)?
    I can post my current settings, but I've been through so many iterations that these current settings don't really matter that much.
    Here are the details I am looking for
    Path to sqldeveloper.exe
    Path to oracle.exe (for Oracle XE)
    Environment Variables
    ORACLE_HOME
    ORACLE_BASE
    TNS_ADMIN
    PATH (just the oracle stuff)
    Registry Settings
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORACLE_HOME
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORACLE_BASE
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\TNS_ADMIN
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\OLEDB
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORAMTS_CP_TRACE_DIR

    I don't use toad, but there should be no reason why you can't install all 3. SQL Developer is a very clean install and affects nothing else. It doesn't add to the path, or create any registry entries except for file associations.
    A toad installation should pick up your oracle client (in this case the XE code). I am curious as to why you felt you had to change registry settings. What problem were you trying to fix?
    My recommendation would be to uninstall everything, clean the registry and reinstall in the order XE, Toad, SQL Developer. Test in between installations and seek help for problems as you find them. Bear in mind that this is the forum for SQL Developer. QUestions about Oracle XE would be better answered in the dedicated forum, or in the Installation forum, and questions about Toad in a toad forum.
