Jdeveloper 10g UI not starting.

Hi All,
I'm a new user of jdeveloper and using 10g.
This is the problem which is happening everytime I start it second time after fresh installation. It works fine for the first time and shows problem and never loads in the subsequent attempts.
I have installed it in E directory following is the path of .exe file which I run E:\Jdev10g\jdev\bin\jdev.exe
Following is the logs which I have got from command window---

Report Builder 10g does not start on Windows 7 (stays minimized)

When i run the report builder 10g in my Windows 7 machine, the splash screen appears for some time and then it minimizes to the task bar. Thinking that it has loaded and gone to task bar, if i click the icon on task bar, it shows another splash screen and loads another copy of Report Builder, which also minimizes to same icon.
On right-clicking the icon there is no maximize button. I tried running it as administrator and also fix the compatibility, but nothing worked.
This issue starts only after some days of installing the developer 10g. It worked ok for some days and then it started behaving like this. Seen this twice now, both times on re-installing the developer suite the issue goes away.
Is there any way to solve this other than re-install the Oracle Developer ?

Hello,
Did you check the files cagprefs.oar and cauprefs.ora ?

IOracle JDeveloper 10G will not open on Windows 7 64 bit OS?

Hi,
I have a feeling this may have been asked before but here goes, I am using a Windows 7 64 bit OS laptop and JDeveloper will not open fpr me. I have tried setting it to Run as Administrator and compatibility mode for Windows XP SP 3 and neither of these help. I have very little knowledge of JDeveloper, all I do is use it to compile to an executable .jar file and then copy into the relevant environment. Could someone please let me know if there is a way to resolve this (without using Windows Virtual PC)? Please include step by step instructions, VERY much appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Rhonda

Try invoking JDeveloper using the jdev.exe in the bin directory instead of the jdevw.exe to see a log of what the problem is.
Also which JDK are you using?
And also - why aren't you using the new JDeveloper 11g?

JMS Queue Works in JDeveloper 10g, but not in Oracle 10g AS

Hello --
I have set up a JMS Queue on my local OC4J included with JDeveloper. I added my ConnectionQueueFactory and ConnectionQueue to the JMS.XML file in my environment. Everything works the way it should using JDeveloper with the embedded OC4J.
As soon as I deploy the application to Oracle Application Server, for some reason my MailSender Message Driven Bean cannot take delivery of the message. I don't know what I could be doing wrong but my JMS.XML file on the Application Server has been updated with the same ConnectionQueue information that is on my local JMS.XML file. In my log file I can see that the message is being posted to the queue, just no delivery.
If anyone out there has a suggestion I would appreciate it. This is my first attempt at ever using JMS.
Thanks,
Frank

I removed the one that was listed, thinking that it was implicit to that line. BUT of course, I just went back and removed EVERY empty line, even between the comments and all...and it worked.
So the lesson here is that PL/SQL could care less about white space, but SQLPlus is picky....
Thanks. :)Exactly. And I have to make note of that in my written procedure for restoring some of our test databases from a cold backup of production. Turns out the control file trace script (backup controlfile to trace) inserts a blank line ... then sqlplus chokes on it when executing ..

I am very new to oracle 10G 1.1 on RHEL4. My problem is that at the time/session in which is installed I was able to log into the em by typing http://localhost.localdomain:1158/em. But after restarting the machine I am not able to log into em. I am getting the following message.
The connection was refused when attempting to contact

Oracle Developer Day Jdeveloper 10g early access not work

Oracle Developer Day Workshop Materials
Creating Persistence Services Using Toplink and POJOs
I use Jdeveloper 10 ea :
To create a new workspace with a new project for the model
Application Name EmployeeRequisitionApplication
Directory Name <JDEV_HOME>/mywork/EmployeeRequisitionApplication
Application Package Prefix objectmodel
Application Template No Template [All Technologies]
rename Project1 to Lab1_PersistenceServices
Set project properties
Click the Technology Scope node: Select TopLink in the Available Technologies and click the shuttle button to move to Selected Technologies.
see the following in the Applications Navigator:
--EmployeeRequisitionApplication
----Lab1_PersistenceServices
not like that :
--EmployeeRequisitionApplication
----Lab1_PersistenceServices
---toplink
---toplink mappings
I use Jdeveloper 1012 , Applications Navigator like :
--EmployeeRequisitionApplication
----Lab1_PersistenceServices
---toplink
---toplink mappings
why Jdeveloper 10g ea not work?

I'm not able to reproduce it exactly. It seems to depend on either what I was doing beforehand or what I have open at the same time.
I was able to make it happen on demand awhile ago, but I've closed and restarted the environment since then.
The best I can remember, I had been going up the dialog, starting at the bottom. I was looking for where to enter the location of SQL*Plus. I didn't expect to see it in accelerators, but I was just curious what was in there when...boom. I might have finished one pass thru most of the tree, then started on a second pass when I encountered the problem. Best guess at this point on how to reproduce would be to simulate a user persistently looking for a setting and just not stopping until he found it.

ADF is not working in JDeveloper 10g

Hi all,
I've been trying to get ADF to work with JDeveloper 10g but to no avail. I've followed the steps from the following link: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/how-to-adf-faces-10gjdev-085657.html
the only thing that i fail to follow is in creating the library. I have only the adf-faces-api.jar and adf-faces-impl.jar but not the share-1_1_18.jar
I do not know whether this is creating the problem as my error message is not helpful.

Now that I've looked at the linked article...
That was showing you how to use a very early version of ADF Faces (a pre-release, in fact) with a very old version of JDeveloper. That document is nearly 9 years old.
Starting with JDeveloper 10.1.3, ADF Faces is "built-in"
And since JDeveloper 10.1.3.x, we have had both the JDeveloper 11.1.1.x and 11.1.2.x series released.
Why are you still using 10.1.2.x?

New JHeadStartProject not found from JDeveloper 10g

After installation of JHeadStart and configuring in JDeveloper 10g ( Tools - Preferences), and after creating new workspace, I am still not getting New JHeadStart Project.
Where could be the error?
I was testing out the steps in "Migrating Forms to J2EE" viewlet.
but the very first step in Jdeveloper is not coming.
The only sign of JHeadStart's presense is it is showing the valid version no on mentioning the JHeadStart home.

The "Migrating Forms to J2EE" viewlet is based on the pre-ADF release of JHeadstart. The latest JHeadstart version does not have a "New JHeadstart Project" option, but has an "Enable JHeadstart for this project" option. This allows for transforming existing ADF projects to JHeadstart besides creating new ones.
If you lookup the JHeadstart Developer's Guide (http://download.oracle.com/consulting/jhsdevguide.pdf), chapter 2 "Getting Started", it contains 4 sections:
- Setting up the JDeveloper project
- Setting up the Business Components package
- Building your Application
- Refining the Generated Application
The first section explains how you create a new JHeadstart project with JHeadstart 10.1.2. When you migrate Forms to J2EE, you can skip the second section and part of the 3rd section (as is mentioned in those sections) because the JHeadstart Designer Generator will do that for you.
Hope this helps,

Oracle 10G Non-Network install - OEM will not start when on the LAN.

Greetings,
Got through a non-networked 10G Enterprise installation OK; I chose to create the orcl schema, connected to it through various utilities, added new tablespace, and all was well. I also checked my Host Name by pinging it in DOS, it showed me the IP address of the MS loopback adapter which is what I was expecting.
Once I connected the same machine to the LAN (and internet) and re-booted, for some reason the Host Name was now assigned the dynamic IP address of the LAN and not LAN2 (which is the loopback adapter that is assigned a static local IP address). It did this even though I had already added an entry in the /etc/hosts file that explicitly assigns a static IP address to the Host Name (as recommended in the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions). I also could not get the OEM to launch a webpage, run and connect to the orcl database after the re-boot; I am wondering if this is related to the IP address assigned to Host Name changing; maybe the Oracle agent can no longer resolve the URL for some reason?
In the end I find that the only way to insure I can have a working Oracle environment and be on an active network at the same time, is to bring up the Oracle environment on a standalone system first, and once Oracle is running connect the system to the network. Is there no way to automate this process?
The format of the hosts file entry recommended by the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions is as follows:
===========================================================
IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
where:
IP_address is the non-routable IP address you entered for the loopback adapter.
hostname is the name of the computer.
domainname is the name of the domain.
For example:
10.10.10.10 mycomputer.mydomain.com mycomputer
==========================================================
In my case since I am not part of a Windows domain (but am part of a Windows Workgroup), I added an entry in the /etc/host file that looks like the following:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
# For example:
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.110.250 IBM-6AB1330E158
==> Note that I did not add the domain name to the entry I created since I am not part of a domain, I also used the format I found in the etc/hosts file which is:
IP_address hostname.domainname
- not -
IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
Which is the format recommended in the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions; this does leave me wondering which format is correct...
Thanks in Advance for any help,

I have not. I am hoping someone (maybe even from Oracle support) will step up and officially tell us we are either right or wrong in the way we are approaching this. From the research I have done on the internet it sounds like this should work, you should be able to have Oracle starting and running fine whether you boot connected to the LAN or not, assuming you have created the MS loopback adapter, assigned it a static IP, and changed the hostname entry in etc/hosts file as part of the 10G WinXP recommended pre-installation instructions.
And yet I find I have to start Oracle when I am not connected to the LAN or the services will not start correctly. If this is a "feature" then hopefully someone will tell us and maybe give us a workaround or give us an idea if this will be addressed in a future release. Having said that and in fairness to the Oracle product; being a developer I have other products installed on my machine that have special networking setup needs also, and in my case this could be exasperating or even possibly causing this Oracle problem I am having. To be specific I have software for 2 different VPNs installed so I can tunnel into 2 private networks. One of these VPNs require me to make use of a DNS Suffix (as shown below) which might be contributing to my problems, not sure. I also have VMWare installed which uses it own network adapters when it is running, so you can see how things could get a little hairy... at any rate, there is my 2 cents worth (or is that 5 cents? : )

Oracle 10g not starting after upgarde

Hi,
   Oracle not starting after upgrade and this service not starting automatically . This is error giving in the event viewer
Description:
The OracleDEV102iSQL*Plus service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
Cheers
Murali

Hi,
I cannot explain what went wrong.
The error indicate that the upgrade is not finished or an error happened during the upgrade.
Please, review the alert log and the upgrade logs.
There are some possibilities:
- First one is to finish the upgrade to Oracle 10.2 manually. Please, check the Metalink notes:
Note 316889.1 - Complete checklist for manual upgrades to 10gR2
    Note:420146.1 - What is the Best Way to Upgrade to 10g?
- Second option is to restore the database to a point before the upgrade. In this case, you have to use the Oracle 9.2 software as well and need to restart the upgrade from the beginning.

Oracle database not starting up in oracle 10g RAC

Hi!
Recently I came across one problem with one node oracle 10g RAC.When the Oracle database is started,while opening it is giving ORA-03113:End of file on communication channel error.When I saw the the alert trace file and other trace files I found Disk group is exhausted error and it is not able to create .dbf files.Actually it is not a production server and I gave archive log destination in SAN.Even the spfile(content of init_database.ora) is in SAN..
I tried Asmcmd utility to delete the archive log files.As the oracle is not available I am not able to asmcmd prompt.
How to change the destination of archive log and to remove the old archive log files(as it is a testing environment we can remove) from SAN?Please let me know.
Thanks & Regards

On VMware there's a known issue with Oracle databases on a Windows client not starting up properly all the time and a manual startup using oradim -start -sid <whatever> is required to get it fully running. Hmmm, doing it several time, and never seen such issue. Which "known issue" and by who are you talking about ?
I created a brand new Oracle VM Windows 2003 32-bit server, installed the Oracle drivers for paravirtualization, and whammo, the problem is still hereI'm sure, you miss something somewhere in the config. Right now, you're on supported configuration, you could either raise a SR to the support, or get help from your peer on Oracle Database General forum.
Ah, but it's not a Windows issue. On a non-VM Windows box the database starts just fine all the time. Again, this is a known issue acknowledged by Oracle on the VMware side, I'm just surprised it exists on the Oracle VM side.Again, give more details about this "known issue". Never heard about that, eventhough I've been around for years.
I was afraid you were going to ask that. I'll have to search for it again, but I think you can do the same as well....Well, I doubt you could find a Metalink note about Oracle on VMWare. So far, Oracle has always refused to support database on OS virtualized on VMWare (or any VM software other than Oracle VM). Based on that, you could be sure, your "known issue" is not an issue on Oracle VM.
If you want more help, again, give more details about your issue.

Oracle 10G R2 AS: Not starting up; please help

i got a server with oracle 10g app server installed on it. i opened the console at http://localhost:1811/emd/console and created a new OC4J instance but did not deploy the EAR file. When i tried to open the console the next day the page did not open. actually the server did not start at the startup. i tried to start the server from the Services but it did not start. please help me to rectify the problem.

If your application server is in windows,then open command promt. and then type cd $ORACLE_HOME\bin
and then emctl.bat start iasconsole
If your application server is in unix/linux,then open console. and then type cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
and then emctl start iasconsole
It will start your OEM. then through ur OEM u can monitor ur server configuration.

Oracle application server 10g enterprise manager is not starting

Hi all,
Pls. help me, our OAS 10g's enterprise manager is not starting whereas AS is up & opmn is also running.
Can anybody has idea?.Thanks in advance.

hi Kamran,
Please remember to always give some details about what product/ type/ version/ platform are you working with. this does not leave others to wait for divine revelation or mortal guessing;
also on reporting errors, please provide exact error(s) with error codes as you see and not the error described in your words. that helps clearly understand the problem.
about current problem, please tell us what did you expect to see and what did you exactly get.
and Roberto is right, check the version in %ORACLE_HOME%\config\ias.properties.
regards,
AMN
