Issue with SQL Developer connecting to databases

Hi all,
I would be really grateful if anyone could advise me on the below issue.
I have 64bit laptop running Windows 7 and I get the following error message when I try to connect via SQL Developer to an external database for work purposes:
Status: Test Failed: C:\app\Terra-PC\product\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\BIN\ocijdbc.dll: Can't load AMD64-bit .dll on a IA 32 -bit platform.
Thanks for your help.
Luke

Hi,
Actually, I resolved this issue with the help of a colleague. SQL Dev was not able to see my TNSnames file, because the Oracle_Home path was not defined. Something like that, anyway.
Thanks,
Luke

Issue with SQL Developer connect to SQL server

I'm using "SQL Developer 2.1.1.64.45" to work on a migration project which needs to convert a SQL server database to a Oracle 11g database. But I got an issue when I setup the SQL server connection. The SQL Developer let me connect by selecting a SQL server database name (For example: Northwind), but once connected, it always connected to "master" database instead. The "SQL Developer" is running on Windows 7 Professional (x64) platform. My Oracle database is 11g, and SQL server database is SQL 2005. And my SQL server instance name is "SQL2005". Anyone have ever experienced this problem? Thanks in advance.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the feedback, lets stick with SQL Developer 3.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
You attempted to migrate from SQL Server to Oracle including target generation and datamove in one go, by filling in each step of the migration wizard to the end.
During the datamove you got
ORA-01000:maximum open cursor exceeded
So it looks like SQL Developer during the migration is not closing cursors fast enough and hits the maximum number of open cursors in your Oracle database.
I think the default max open cursors is 300 in Oracle.
There are a few things we can do here.
You should be able to see the new migration project in your Migration Projects navigator.
By navigating down the project tree to "Converted Database Objects" we can attempt the data move again by right clicking and choosing "Data Move".
But first I would restart SQL Developer so as to free up any lingering open cursors.
That may allow you to complete the data move, as the only cursors being open are being used in the data move and not some cursors which may have been left open from previous steps in the migration.
Now from my perspective I would like to identify where are we leaving open the cursors, so I'm going to setup some testcases my end to see if I can replicate.
From your perspective Id presume you just want to move on with the migration.
So if the above (shutdown and attempt just the data move) doesnt workyou could
A) Increase the MAX OPEN CURSORs on your Oracle databases so it complete the data move
or
B) Use the offline data move technique.
A) Increase MAX OPEN CURSORs
This wiki explains how to do that, looks like 1000 is fairly common, but even a much larger number is not a problem
http://wiki.oracle.com/page/OPEN_CURSORS
ALTER SYSTEM SET OPEN_CURSORS = 10000;
OR
B) Offline Data Move
If you are moving large amounts of data (say > 1GB), then the standard data move (we call it online), which just uses JDBC to SELECT * FROM and INSERT INTO may not cut the mustard.
In this case you can try using our offline technique. SQL Developer will generate a set of scripts for you.
unload_script.bat will use SQL Servers BCP tool to dump out the table data into DAT files.
oracle_ctl.bat will load the data in the DAT files into Oracle.
As we know the names of all the tables, columns ,both SQL Server and Oracle, we can generate fairly good scripts.
The benefit of this technique is large amounts of data can be migrated and you get to use tools designed to dump data and load in data, so you have better error logging and tweaking.
To attempt this in the Migration Wizard , Data Move page, select offline.
If you can describe your database a bit (number of tables, number of procedures, amount of data to migrate) I may be able to define my testcase better so I can replicate the issue.
Thanks

Screen refresh issue with SQL Developer 1.5.5 on Vista 64 bit

I am using the latest version of SQL Developer.
I have screen refresh issues in sql developer. On scrolling up and down the display gets jumbled, some time screen do not display at all. Its making working with SQL Developer very difficult. I don't have such an issue with any of my other editors.
Is this something specific to Vista? Is there any know solution to this issue.
Thanks
Edited by: user5899685 on Sep 1, 2009 11:14 AM

Specific? Not really, but judging from the posts here Vista is more prone. It usually indicates incompatibility between Java and video drivers.
If updating your JDK or video driver doesn't work or isn't an option, just disabling DirectDraw in \sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf usually works too:
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=trueHope that helps,
K.

Issue with OIDM - Error connecting to database -1

In oidmon.log - "Error connecting to database -1".
Config : OID on W2k
Install created "ODS" user in the database. I can connect to the DB via SQLPLUS.
Any idea what "-1" implies. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is this really a hard one to answer ? I have tried install, de-install, re-install nothing seems to work ?
I would appreciate any help on this.
Thx

Noticed issues with SQL Developer 3.0

Not sure where to file these found issues (and post them here until someone knows where to...)
- Create TAPI PL/SQL wizard doesn't take into account tablenaming (and columns) which uses all possible 30 characters and therefore generates code that can not be compiled while adding extra characters.
- In the "create index" wizard (right click when in "table" section), it is possible to click and add values which will generated the following (when executed the database will not except the syntax of course)
create index index01 on table01 (column01, column01, column01, column01, column01)

Buntoro wrote:
For creating TAPI, basically, I am not certain what is that actually?
Is it creating PL/SQL (stored proc / function)?
Which part that causes the naming restriction being overruled?
A simple step to reproduce is more than welcome.Can't be reproduced and its that simple that dev. people involved will know what I mean
>
For creating index, I believe that should be marked as a bug. SQL Dev should remove the selected column name to avoid being chosen again.
Thats also a way to solve bugs --- grin --- (snik smiles are not allowed anymore on the OTN forums, beats me why)
For DDL generation script, I believe SQL Dev relies on DBMS_METADATA, therefore this issue implies on your case.
Perhaps you can give any idea to enlighten the developer on how to provide the correct result for XML type.Will report it to the xmldb dev team when beta trails begin, somewhere in the future I guess, for Oracle 12. It has no hurry, there are more XMLDB features not properly supported in the common development Tools (also for all those not Oracle, like toad)

Issue with SQL Developer 4.1 Early Adopter 2 - start sql-script by "@"

Hi,
today i realized, that starting a sql-script by writing @scriptname.sql in a sql worksheet and press F9 to start the script, does not work anymore.
With EA2 there is always an error message shown like "unkown command" with some strange characters "��" in the script logging window.
The sql-scripts are located in a filesystem folder the os environment variable SQLPATH points to.
In Version 4.0.x this worked perfect! Is this a planned "feature" or just a bug in EA2 fixed in later EA versions?
In addition, when i open such a sqlscript with the file open menu in sqldeveloper the content of the sqlscript is not shown in the script window. There are only some none printable characters "��" displayed in the sqlworksheet, and not the "select ..." a normal texteditor shows.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
with encoding set to utf8 it does not work. Don't know why. After setting the encoding to "cp1252" everything works fine again! Thank you very much!

SQL Developer connect to RAC12c (Basic) failed with ORA-01017 invalid username/password; logon denied

I'm using scan in hostname to connect as Basic that failed ORA-01017. I'm using the same credential system to logon from sqlplus and is fine.
Any ideas?

Essentially all you have said is: help me, I have a problem.
1. full version of sql developer being used
2. full version of Java SDK being used
3. full version of JDBC jar file being used
4. full details on the connection information being used
5. full version of the Oracle client being used
6. confirm that both your sql*plus and sql developer connections were made from the SAME machine
A Basic connection uses the thin driver while sql*plus is using OCI

Jdbc-OCI:112020 Error with SQL Developer 4.0.0.12

Hi,
I receive an error, Incompatible version of libocijdbc[Jdbc:112030, Jdbc-OCI:112020, when attempting to log into an existing connection with SQL Developer 4.0.0.12. I do have the JDK 7u45 for 32 bit Windows 7. I know this was an issue in the past and attempted to look at earlier solutions with no luck. Any idea?

The issue is that if you are using the OCI (thick) JDBC driver the version of the JDBC library (in SQLDeveloper) must match the version in your ORACLE_HOME.
It seems SQLDeveloper 4 ships with 11.2.0.3 version of JDBC and you have 11.2.0.2 client installed.
Possible options:
1 Don't use the OCI driver. You can untick the box in Tools |Preferences|Database |Advanced, but some connection types use it anyway.
2 Upgrade your Oracle client.

Serious UI issues in SQL Developer 4.0 for Mac

I've encountered some serious UI issues in SQL Developer 4.0 for Mac (4.0.0.13) that impact it up to the point where it becomes unusable.
If the database and tables are expanded in the "Connections" view, sometimes a node in the tree seems to become sticky. Whenever you scroll the up or down, it will immediately scroll back to make the old selection visible again. If you want to work with an item that's outside the current view (e.g. to collapse the "Tables" node), you can no longer use it. SQL Developer needs to be restarted.
If the context menu is opened (ctrl click), it appears in the wrong place. It's too far to the right and bottom. If you then move the mouse pointer towards the menu, a rectangle appears and follows the mouse pointer as if you had initiated a drag and drop operation.
If the "Data" tab of a table is selected and if a cell is clicked to edit the cell value, the text cursor is drawn in the wrong position. It can be off by more than one character and it is often drawn in the middle of a character instead of between two characters. It's hardly possible to edit the cell value as you cannot tell for sure where insertions and deletions will happen. You basically need to copy the value into a separate editor, edit it there and copy it back.
The scrolling in the "Data" tab of a table is a pain. For no obvious reason, it first scrolls downwards a few rows and then jumps to the top (at least using a Magic Mouse). If all rows have been loaded, this problem seems to disappear. But generally, the scrolling distance is far too short. With a long finger swipe, one would expect to scroll the contents by several pages. However, it only scrolls about half a page. For shorter swipes, it's similar. It sometimes only scrolls by a few pixels.
Am I the only one to experience these severe problems? Or is the Mac version not as mature as the Windows version yet?

In terms of diagnosis, perhaps not -- probably very time-consuming to debug. I did find some unpublished bugs against dual monitor use ...
Bug 13727841 - FORUM: 64BIT WIN7 SOME DIALOGS SHOW ON DISPLAY 1 WHEN SQLDEV ON DISPLAY 2
Bug 18504928 - NEW CONSTRAINT UI MENU IN TABLE DIALOG AT WRONG LOCATION ON DUAL MONITOR
The first turned out to be an issue in the 64-bit Java AWT libraries, not the 32-bit libraries, and specifically for Windows 7 as opposed to, say XP, but this was all quite a bit in the past and was fixed for 4.0. The second one (on 64-bit Linux), however, just came in yesterday, so you can wait to see if a fix for that also covers your situation or, if you are able, pursue it directly with Oracle Support.

DB2 8.1 to Oracle 11g with SQL Developer 3.0

Hi,
I started migrating my DB2 8.1 to Oracle 11g, with SQL Developer 3.0
Basically, I need to migrate TABLES.
I followed these steps:
1) I created a new Oracle database, tablespaces, users, etc.
2) Then, I created both (DB2 and Oracle) connections into SQL Developer 3.0. All works fine.
3) I start capturing one table with the "Copy to Oracle" feature. Done with no errors.
But when I compare the table structure, I see the following problems in Oracle:
a) All fields are NULLABLE = YES. SQL Developer show this field property correctly in DB2: NULLABLE = NO, but not migrated the same!
SOLUTION: All I want is that SQL Developer simply migrating the same value who I have in the DB2. But how?
b) In DB2 I have one field property called COLUM DEFAULT. In Oracle this property is called DATA_DEFAULT. The SQL Developer show this field property correctly for the DB2 tables (for example: 0.0, ' ', etc), but don't migrated the same value! All fields are configured to DATA_DEFAULT = NULL.
SOLUTION: I think this occurs because NULLABLE is migrated with the value YES. Well, all I need is the same above...
NOTE: I tested the SWISSQL DATA MIGRATION software, and it works fine. All tables, field properties and data are migrated sucessfull. But this program is trial version!
Well, I think all of this are BUGS into SQL Developer.
Please, anyone to help me?
Regards,
Ylram

You listed a bunch of things but you didn't say what steps you actually performed and what the result was.
Did you 'Compile'the procedure? until you compile the procedure you can't debug it.
I just created a new procedure and when I select the body it displays in the 'Code' window on the right. But the 'Debug' icon is not enabled because the procedure was not compiled for debug.
When I compile it for debug the 'Debug' icon is now enabled.

I have looked at various threads in the forums here but I'm still stymied why the connection seems to be ok, yet sql developer has problems with it. If I create an ssh tunnel so sql developer only has to connect to localhost it works:

Hi Ali,
This may be of varoius reasons..
Is the database that you are connecting on the same PC?
You have specified Hostname: localhost.
If not please replace it with the IP of that server.
Else please check whether the database listener is started or not. if not please start the listener.
Check the SID by tnsping command.
Hope this will help you..
Thanks

Sql developer connectivity problem

Hi,
I'm finding it difficult to connect my downloaded sql devloper to the oracle. I am doubting if my login details were correct, or there re some other configurations that needs to be done. Please can you tell me how I can get to retrieve my username and password? Also tell me what needs to be at the hostname box and the SID box. Thanks
Herbert.

You need a separately installed Oracle database to use with SQL Developer. If you have one at work, ask your DBA for the connection details. If you install one yourself, these details will become obvious.
Have fun,
