Problem accessing SQL Developer with user sys

Hi Experts;
I'm working with Oracle 10G, in Solaris 10, The DB apparently is working properly, but I can not access the DB thru SQL Developer. When I try to acccess with user sys, and I enter de password, in oracle role I select sysdba, when I choose connect I get this error message:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
However, I can connect with other user without any problem.
I was connecting directly in the server, with sqlplus /as sysdba and I changed the password for user sys, but still the problem continues.
What is wrong with this. I got the same problem if try to connect thru OEM.
Thanks and regards
Al

Hi Buntoro;
Thank you for answer.
First, I'm completely sure I'm using the correct password, to be sure I changed the password thru sqlplus.
I'm using tns connection, btw, with the same connection, I can connect, but with other user.
I was trying again, however, with the same results previous explained.
But also I have the same problen when I tried to connect to OEM, and I was trying to stop the dbconsole, and found this:
export ORACLE_SID=YAWIDBLAB
emctl status dbconsole
OC4J Configuration issue. /opt/oracle/102/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_yawi-db-lab01_YAWIBLAB not found.
export ORACLE_SID=YAWIDBLA
emctl status dbconsole

Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g is running.
Logs are generated in directory /opt/oracle/102/yawi-db-lab01_YAWIDBLA/sysman/log
If I type export ORACLE_SID=YAWIDBLA and then sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect /as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
But, when I connect settiong the SID in this way:
export ORACLE_SID=YAWIDBLAB

SQL> connect /as sysdba
Connected.
SQL>
Apparently, there is problem with the tnsnames. When I see the tnsnames in SQL DEVELOPER I see this: YAWIDBLA
So, here is the tnsname, in order you have a better idea, what I have.
YAWIDBLA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = yawi-db-lab01)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = YAWIDBLAB)
Is the first time I see this kind of problem.
Have an idea of what's happening;
Best Regards;
Al

Login to SQL Developer as the SYS user for Getting Started tutorial

I went to try and do the following tutorial to learn about SQL Developer 3.0, but I cannot get started because I'm unable to perform Prerequisite #3.
How do I "Login to SQL Developer as the SYS user"?
Dave
Getting Started with Oracle SQL Developer 3.0
Prerequisites
Before starting this tutorial, you should:
1 .
Install Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 from OTN. Follow the readme instructions here.
2 .
Install Oracle Database 11g with the Sample schema.
3.
Unlock the HR user. Login to SQL Developer as the SYS user and execute the following command:
alter user hr identified by hr account unlock;
Note: This tutorial is developed using Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.
4 .
Download and unzip the files.zip to a local folder on your file system. In this tutorial, we use the C:\sqldev3.0 folder.

I installed XE. It asked me to set up a username and password during the install.
How do I login as the SYS user, though?
There is a Connection Name, Username, and Password field when I try to set up a connection in SQL Developer, and I used the username and password I made during the install. I clicked the Test button to test the connection.
I see "Status: Failure -Test failed: ORA-28009: connection as SYS should be as SYSDBA or SYSOPER".
How do I tell SQL Developer "as SYSDBA or SYSOPER"?
Sorry, this is probably easy, and I'm just clueless about it.

Problem accessing Sql server Procedure from Crystal with JDBC driver

I have some Crystal reports using SQL Server procedures, most of them are working very well; however, I have 2 that have problems accessing sql server procedures. These reports are working using OLE DB connection without problem, but when I try to relocate the connection to JDBC Crystal generates an error like that the procedure not return records.
The procedure is working with other products including OLE DB connections from crystal.
What can I do?
Thanks in Advance,
JaimeC

I am using:
Crystal report 11 - 11.0.0.1282 and Crystal 2008 = 12.0.0.683
SQL Server 2005 - Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.4035.00
Windows XP
I have discovered that the procedures create and work temporary tables. In other cases when is working ok, the procedures have not working temporary tables.
Thanks,

Problem when making new connection with user "sys"

Hi, I'm having trouble on making new connection with user sys against local 10g installation, the password is correct and I've tried making new connection with other
users which is fine.
when I click "test" or "connect", the error msg is strange like this:
"ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied"
can anybody help.
Thx.

Have you used the "Role" drop-down to "SYSDBA"? - if not, you get the ORA-01017 error.

Password change fails in SQL Developer with verify function...

A couple of months ago I enforced a password verify function on our 11.2.0.3 databases and also one legacy 10.2.0.4 database.
At the time I tested on my account (which had elevated privileges...doh!).   Now some users are hitting expiry, they can't change it via SQL Developer.
If I create a user with 'create session' privilege and set their profile to one that uses the verify function (see both below), I then log in to SQL Developer (we have tried with versions 3.1 (Windows) and 3.2 (Linux) with same failure results.
BTW,.. the password verify function enforces the following:
password must be minimum of 8 characters
password must not be the same as the user name, or user name (1-100)
password must contain at least a single digit
password must contain at least a single character
1. Works = I log into the local server and run command line SQLPlus, type 'password' and update.   I can successfully change my password.
2. Fails = I log into the local server and run command line SQLPlus, type 'alter user <me> identified by <newpwd>;' I get:
TEST: SUTEMP > alter user sutemp identified by carport9999;
alter user sutemp identified by carport9999
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28221: REPLACE not specified
This error is because the account does not have the 'alter user' privilege.   I'm okay with this, as I don't want our users having this privilege.
3. I start SQL Developer 3.2, type 'alter user <me> identified by <newpwd>;' I get the same ORA-28221 error as above.   That is fine, and as expected.
4. Now in SQL Developer, I type 'password', set a valid password, but I get 'Failed to change password' in the Script Output tab.
I have a database 'after servererror on database' trigger set, and querying the database table it is logging into, I see a record with a date stamp matching my failure with a server_error=28221 (the same as above).
So I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong here, or if this is a bug in SQL Developer.   I don't want standard users having 'alter user' privileges, but I do want to enforce password verification.
I get the same result on three 11.2.0.3 databases (haven't tried any more but suspect same results for others) and one legacy 10.2.0.4 database, and using SQL Developer 3.1 and 3.2.

okay,... I just saw another website which shows I should put in the 'replace <oldpwd>' clause in.
This works in SQL Developer:     alter user sutemp identified by carport999 replace garage999;
So why does the 'password' command fail?     (Developers: it would also be helpful to have the ORA- error displayed as opposed to 'Failed to change password')

INS0009: Unable to connect to the database with user SYS

Hi all,
I'm trying to create an OWB repository with OWB repository assistant (10.2.0.2.) on a 10.2.0.1. database (windows XP platform). I get the following error every time I fill in the connect info for the SYS user:
INS0009: Unable to connect to the database with user SYS. java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
I can connect to the database (sqlplus sys/<password>@orcl as sysdba) and the OS user is in the ora_dba group. Also checked the database parameters remote_login_passwordfile (= EXCLUSIVE) and O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY=TRUE.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Quinten

Ok I found the problem myself, I used the wrong sys password :-(. I thought the password I used to logon in sqlplus was right (sqlplus sys/<password>@orcl as sysdba) but the password doesn't matter when you logon as sysdba! So I altered the password for the user sys and now I can continue the steps of the repository assistant.

Unable Update SQL Developer with Times Ten in-Memory DB Extension 1.2.1.1.0

SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN 32.13 (Windows XP)
We can't Update SQL Developer with Times Ten in-Memory DB Extension 1.2.1.1.0 :-((
We did the same actions as described in tutorial
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/timesten/viewlets/tt703_sqldev_install_ext_viewlet_swf.html
In addition to tutorial we have "Log In" window
"To download Oracle Times Ten in-Memory Database Extension
you must enter your Oracle Web Account user name and password"
This window was not displayed in tutorial...
We try to use three our OTN accounts and the result
was the same - we was asked with "User name" and "Password"
again, again, again and again,,, :-(
Is it a bug or a feature?
Mayby we didn't understand something or did something wrong?

Hi Simon,
I found cause of update failure! It was the HTTP proxy setting.
I turned off "Use HTTP proxy server" checkbox in SQL Developer -> Tools -> Preferences -> Web Browser and Proxy.
After this action SQL Developer was successfully updated with Times Ten Extension.

Problem using SQL Loader with ODI

Hi,
I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
Thanks in advance

I tried to use your code, but I couldn´t make it work (I don´t know Jython). I think the problem could be with the use of quotes
Here is what I wrote:
import os
retVal = os.system(r'sqlldr control=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.ctl log=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.log userid=MYUSER/myPassword @ mySID')
if retVal == 1 or retVal > 2:
raise 'SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details '
And the error message is:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:

Integrating sql developer with Subversion

Hi all,
I have Oracle SQL Developer (3.1.07) installed on my local windows machine. Using an external tool Tortise SVN as our VCS. Has anyone been able to integrate SQL Developer with TortiseSVN? I have googled and haven't found any relevant docs to help me integrate both. Is this possible at all? We have a configured repository server. TortiseSVN is installed on my machine and is acting as a working directory.
Kindly advice me.
Thanks!

Hi Nick,
it seems that the latest version of SQL Developer is not yet certified to work with Subversion 1.7 and it has some serious problems with it.
Indeed if you have already installed the latest version of TortoiseSVN on your pc, you will have quite a lot of issues in SQL Developer (for example while browsing a working copy on your disk) and weird errors not immediately related with the version control plugin. You may find more details by searching the forum (e.g. see 3.1EA1 File browser bug? ).
The possible solutions are either:
1) install a supported version of TortoiseSVN (1.6 should be fine) and you should be able to perform check-in and check-out from inside SQL Developer;
2) disable the Subversion plugin shipped with SQL Developer and use exclusively TortoiseSVN to manage your working copy;
Currently I am using option 2 and it works fine.
Hope it helps,
Paolo

SQL developer with jre but no jdk

Is there a way i can install sql developer with only jre installed in my windows system.
Im trying to install to sql developer 64 bit and when i run the exe file it asks for java.exe file path.
When i give it to the path to exe file in jre/bin it gives an error cannot find j2se sdk installed in jre directory.

Normally SQLDeveloper requires a JDK and so will not accept a JRE.
You can try to bypass this check by filling in the SetJavaHome property manually in the sqldeveloper.conf file usually located in
SQLDEVELOPER_INSTALL_DIR/sqldeveloper/binby doing this you are not guaranteed to succeed, because some of the functions of SQLDeveloper specifically requires the JDK and so if you use these functions you will most probably incur in errors or unexpected behavior.
The best thing to do IMHO is to install a proper JDK.
If you do not have the right to do so you can also copy and already installed JDK from another machine and it usually works well enough.

SQL Developer with Mac Os X 1.3.9

Greetings,
I am running Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.3) on my Powerbook G4 1 GHz with 768 MB ram. After reading the requirements for SQL developer for OS X, I thought I would try to install it. Unfortunately there seems to be a conflict in the requirements for installing SQL developer.
"Operating System
Apple Mac OS X Version 10.3
CPU Type and Speed

The J2SE 1.5 release is currently only available for OS X 10.4 and higher, so apparently you need this os version to run SQL developer. Is this correct? Is there a SQL Developer version that will run on OSX 10.3 that is running the J2SE 1.4.2 release?

Sorry the subject heading should read:
