No Connection window and no object browser - also getting java exceptions

Ok, something's whacked - SQL Developer was working just fine on my Win XP sp2 system until I rebooted. Now, when I run SQL Developer there is no Connections window. When I do select View->Connections it does nothing.
The only way I can connect is File->New then select Database Connection. Once there I can see the list of the database connections I was using so I select one and log in no problem.
However, once connected all I get is the SQL Worksheet - there is no Object Browser!
Also, in the Tools->Preferences if I select Code Editor or Database Connections or Debugger etc etc (not everything mind you) I get an error dialog. Pressing 'Details' gives me this...

Like I said, this ran before just fine before my reboot.
I've tried rebooting again and that didn't solve anything.
I've tried reinstalling it and that didn't solve anything.
I'm running out of ideas as to what might be wrong - anyone ?

Hmmm... ok... I downloaded it again and reinstalled and now it works - ah... ok...
I did do one thing different however - I removed the old directory rather than just unzipping over top of it like I did last time (but I did ask it to overwrite).
The only thing I can think of is a corrupted configuration file or something.
Whatever, it works now - sorry to have trouble anyone.

  • When I open a separate window and start private browsing my main window closes and I lose all of my app tabs

    whenever I open a new window and do private browsing it closes my main window and I loose all of my app tabs. If this is functioning as designed then it is a flaw in the design.

    It is designed that way. When you stop private browsing, all of your other tabs will come back.

    my PC crashed, so i reinstalled windows and itunes. how do i get my music back?

    If the music was purchased from iTunes you can redownload it for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).  If not you will either have to re-import all your music to rebuild your library, or purchase 3rd party software that can transfer it from your phone to iTunes such as Touch Copy.

    If you're using Lion, you can resize by dragging from any corner, in Leopard and lower it can only be resized from the bottom right hand corner.

    Hello fuchs (guess), If you cancelled while downloading the 4GB Lion, no problem, download again. Snow Leopard should run (start holding the option key).
    If you cancelled during the install process, I do not know. In this case you could try to start with the CMD + R keys pressed, and choose the restore, which may work if the creation of the restore partition of Lion has finished.
    If that does not work, reinstall Snow Leopard with the CD (start holding the C key), after that download the Combo Update 10.6.8 to update the Snow Leopard completely, then redownload Lion (App Store, click "purchases" while holding the Option Key, find Lion, click "install"). If you want to have your own copy of the Lion installer, you have to copy the installer to a Memory stick or burn to DVD before you install, see else where.

  • Firefox stops working and I have to close and restart the browser to get it to work again.

    I am using a dell laptop with windows 8 I have a wireless connection. Firefox stops responding, I can be on say, facebook and if I try doing something it won't do it, I can't click on a new tab to open i can't click home. My wireless gives me no indication that I have lost a signal or that it is weak. The only way to get the browser to respond is to close it and reopen it.
    It's not just on facebook it's on every site I go to that it does this so it's not a site problem. I get no error message unless I manage to open a tab and it says the connection has reset then tells me to check everything and I do and everything is fine.

    If it works in Windows Safe mode then you likely have a problem with your security software that is blocking Firefox and possibly other browser.
    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    You may need to ask advice at the support site of that software if you can't fix it via the setup of that software.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    The message is firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tab. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.

It even happened when I first went to Firefox help It applies to a variety of websites....For sure I can no longer enter by password and id for my bank homepage.

  • JDBC 8.1.6 Connection Pooling and Oracle Objects

    I managed to make OracleConnectionCacheImpl class work and I noticed one very strange thing:
    when I use simple SQL, connection cache works as good as single permanently opened connection but when I return Oracle objects with nested datasets in my result set performance degrades 10 times to compare to the same sql in case I am using single permanently opened connection.
    I am using custom classess generated by JPublisher to access the objects
    Example:
    Single permanently opened connection
    Simple SQL - 0.1 sec
    Objects with nested datasets - 0.5 sec
    Pooled connection
    Simple SQL - 0.15 sec
    Objects with nested datasets - 5 sec

    That's all fine and dandy until you try to use JNDI with it. If you create the instance and setMinLimit() when a client tries to get a connection from a JNDI lookup it throws an error saying something like: " user credentials don't match"

  • I keep getting "The MSN Toolbar has encountered an error. Please close all browser windows and start the browser again(Error code: 400)"

    This error pops ups after I have mozilla loaded for a few minutes.

    I tried installing (again) Premier Elements this morning after starting up my Win 7 PC. I did install some Windows (optional) updates and deleted several files suggested in "troubleshoot" when I got the same error mesage. The files/folders I deleteed before trying the install again are Cache, PDAppFlex.swf, and PDAppFlex-app.xml.
    This lastest installation attempt resulted in the name error message I have gotten a dozen times, "The installation has encountered an error while installing. Please restart system and try again". The hangup always occurrs around the same spot while installing shared technologies. Maybe this info helps?

  • MI424WR Router - connection on and off - noticing freezing also

    Hi,
    Our internet connection (ethernet cabels and wi-fi) have been on and off since last year Fall. And as per instructed each time we called, we reboot router, pcs, etc, to resolve the connectivity issue each time it happened.
    Now, it become more frequent again. And the last 3 times we've noticed when connection froze/dropped, the router lights were actually all solid green including the internet indicator light.
    Can we be sure that the router is old and need to be replaced or there's other explaination?
    thx
    wilc

    Bad routers do happen; and they can fail in some rather entertaining ways.
    When I first got FiOS service some years ago, the first router Verizon gave me was bad. In my case, the symptom was that the connection would just totally drop off for 30-45 seconds every so often, then resume. When I'd call and complain, I was told I needed to call when experiencing the problem.
    Ahem. Of course, if I started to contact Verizon when noticing the problem, the connection would have resumed well before I got through to a representative.
    After some weeks of this, I insisted on a replacement router. I got one and the problem went away.
    Call back, calmly explain the entirety of what you've been through, and insist on a replacement router.
    In the worst case, the problem will persist and you will have ruled out the router as its source.

    Hi,
    Is it available in the interface you are using..
    If the answer is yes.. you might have probably forgotten to deploy the EJBs ear file after making the changes..
    Rebuild it.. and deploy the EJB s ear file again..
    It will solve the problem.. If that also does not work,it might be a problem with the cache.. restart the server..
    It should work now !
