Problem defining new db connection to localhost

I have installed Oracle Database XE and Oracle SQL Developer on my local. In Developer I try to create a new database connection to the Oracle DB using:
Connection Name = localdb
Username = system
Password = <password for system>
Role = default
Connection Type = basic
OS Authentication = unchecked
Proxy Connection = unchecked
Hostname = localhost
Port = 1521
SID = xe
The Test button gives me Status : Success
When I use the Connect button, nothing at all happens.
Running Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on Vista and using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.0.53
Any help much appreciated, Thanks, Roscoe

Hi -K-,
Thanks for the reply,
When I try to create the connection the Logging page records the message: "failed to create naming Context for db connections at url: file: /C:/Users/rpf/AppData/Roaming/SQL Developer/system1 .5.9.53.38/o.jdeveloper .db .connection"
The dialog does not dismiss.
I do not have any saved connections to try to connect to - this is my first and only connection,
Thanks much for any help, Roscoe

  • Problems with SCP and Connecting to Localhost

    I have two problems that may or may not be related. The first is trying to use scp from the command line. It used to work fine, but now when I try it, I get prompted for the remote password, then the date gets displayed, and that's it. No file transfer happens. An example run looks like this:
    [12:22 PM][~]$scp [email protected]:boolean/programs/btbs.pl .
    [email protected]'s password:
    Mon Nov 21 12:20:39 EST 2005
    [12:22 PM][~]$
    The second problem I have is trying to user a web browser to connect to localhost. I have PHP installed on my system and am running the apache web server. It worked fine for a while, but now when I try to view a PHP page on my machine, the browser tells me it cannot connect to the server. An example looks like this:
    Safari can’t open the page “http://127.0.0.1/~user/index.php” because it could not connect to the server “127.0.0.1”.
    Any input would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Just some wild guesses:
    The problem with scp may be due to your terminal emulation.
    With regard to localhost, you might check whether web access to your computer has somehow been turned off.
    Please excuse, if this is all nonsense.

  • Problems with New iPhone connecting to wireless at home

    Hi everyone,
                        just got back from the Apple store in Bristol ( UK ) where I had my 'old' iPhone exchanged for a New one because of some problems.
    Anyway I get home and I am 'trying' to get my iPhone on to my home wireless ( which is protected so have to 'add' the phone to the accept list ), the problem is when I try to add the iPhone I keep getting a 'error' message telling me that the "MAC" address ( from the phone ) is not a MAC address.
    I know where to look - 'About' - 'Wi-Fi Address  and there is the Mac address ( 14:8F:C6:D9:9B:6D ) , so does anyone know what I am missing or doing wrong !!
    I had no problem adding my 'Old' iPhone or anything else, iPads ( one a friends for when they visit ), iTouch, Macbook ect  ;-(
    Not happy at the moment.

  • Mail.app no longer connecting to localhost or 127.0.0.1 port 143

    Gentleones,
    Problem:
    Mail.app cannot connect to localhost or 127.0.0.1 on port 143 in order to use an SSH-tunnelled connection to my IMAP server. It gripes that "The IMAP server '127.0.0.1' is not responding."
    Background:
    I occasionally have to connect via SSH tunnel to my mail server at home to access my E-mail via IMAP and Mail.app. While I have done so for several years, within the last two weeks, something has happened that no longer allows me to do so. (I think the triggering event was upgrading the client machine to 10.4.7, but I'm not positive.)
    Troubleshooting done to date:
    I can successfully open the tunnel and use TELNET to login to my server on the IMAP port, 143.
    I installed the latest version of Eudora and it connects to the tunnel successfully.
    I have deleted both the com.apple.mail.plist and both ~/Library/Mail and ~/Library/Mail Downloads folders, but that hasn't made any difference.
    Anybody got any idea what is going on here?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    You're welcome.
    How the heck did you figure that one out?!
    I didn't, actually. Someone else in this forum (and probably other people in other forums as well), figured it out by looking at the changes introduced by the Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update, and checking his/her own settings accordingly:

  • I am having trouble with the initial connection. I have isolated the problem to the cable/ connection. My new hdmi cable has a resolution up to 1080p...does the resolution matter?is this the right hdmi cable for the apple tv?

    I am having trouble with the initial connection of the apple tv. I have isolated the problem to the cable/connection. My new hdmi cable has a resolution up to 1080p...does the resolution matter?is this the right hdmi cable for the apple tv?

    There are only two types of HDMI cables (standard and high speed - listen to all 1.2, 1.3 etc etc nonsense they will try to tell in the store) both types will work with the Apple TV.
    The cable may be faulty though, have you got another to try, what exactly is happening.

  • I receive error message "Unable to connect to iTunes store" when trying to download updates to my iPhone4. No problems buying new apps.

    I have just started receiving the message "Cannot connect to iTunes store" when I attempt to download upgrades to previously purchased apps. However, I have no problem buying new apps from the iTunes store. No issues with wifi or connectivity.  Does anyone have any ideas or fixes? Thanks.

    1st. Turn off your phone and back on.
    if that does not work, do a reset by holding the on/off button and the home button until the Apple logo comes on.

  • Problem with new IPod Touch - connecting to computer

    Just bought an IPod touch 2nd generation and plugged it into my computer to charge and to set up. I got a "found new hardware-Ipod" message and then the "found new hardware wizard" screen came up asking me for an installation CD or floppy to install software. I already have iTunes installed (the newest version) as have used it before with an Ipod nano. I have tried plugging the ipod into different USB ports on the computer but no avail.
    Could anyone help me with this problem as am desperate to use my new Touch?
    Thanks

    All was well with my 2nd Generation Itouch until I downloaded Itunes 8.2. then ol boy what problems I have had! As follows:
    1) Itunes cannot detect my device, therefore, no syncing is possible
    2) Cannot connect to the Itunes Store....error indicates I have problems with my network connection (error code 3221), although I am connected and I have not previously had a problem.
    I have searched for possible resolutions and have:
    (a) Uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled .... NO GOOD
    (b) Reset the network settings on the Itouch .... NO GOOD
    (c) Reset all settings ... NO GOOD
    (d) Ensured that the Apple mobile device option are okay
    etc etc. In fact, I have done everything possible that has been indicated on the various websites. I should confirm that my computer recognises my Itouch BEFORE I access Itunes.
    Please help.

  • Wi-Fi connection problems with new ipad4

    Hi
    I just bought a new iPad 4 and I am unable to connect to wi-fi unless I am right next to the router.  I tried turning off and on the wifi, tried forgetting the network and reconnecting, tried resetting network connections, tried resetting all settings, tried software update, but the devise is up to date (IOS 6.1.3), but problem still not resolved.  Can anyone help me, please.

    As much as I hate to see a brand new iPad have to be restored - have you tried that? Restoring the iOS Software?
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Support - Apple
    If you are having this many problems trying to stay connected to WiFi, and if the iPad is new, I would seriously consider returning the device to wherever you bought it. If you bought it from Apple, they have a 14 day refund policy. You can get your money back and try your luck with the purchase of another one.

  • New 4s connects with bluetooth in my Lexus, but I have intermittent problems with calls.  I can hear them, but they can't hear me.  Never did this with 3gs.  Anyone else have this problem?

    New 4s connected to my Lexus bluetooth.  Having intermittent problem with calls.  I can hear them, but they can't hear me.  Never a problem with 3gs phone.  Anyone else having this problem? 

    I ended up getting a new phone, straight through Apple.  I called their technical support and went through all he basics again and they decided to replace it.  Was a pretty quick process - after defaulting and resetting the whole phone (about 2 hours),  I called them back to inform that there was no change, so they set up the order.
    I had to give my CC# so they could hold a charge on it (in case I didn't send my old phone bach, which they sent me a pre-posted package to send it in anyway).  Had a brand new iPhone 4S in my hands in 4 days, which was pretty decent.  I had uploaded everything previously to iCloud, so setting up the new phone was a snap.
    Only thing I really didn't like was they charged me almost 30 bucks for shipping or processing, or something.  Not so sure that should have been my responsibility after spending so much on a brand new product, only to have to have it warrantied after, like, a month.

  • Had problem w/ new iPad mini w/retina display.  Could never get it to stay connected on a consistent basis to my ATT Netgear wireless.  Does anyone have a solution?

    Had problem with new iPad mini with retina connecting to my ATT net gear modem.  Finally gave up and exchanged it for new air.  Have had no problems with air connection.  Has anyone had mini issues with ATT?

    I too have experienced this issue over the past two days... I have a 16gb ipad mini retina, for reference. I bought the device one week ago, and had not experience any issues at all until bringing my device to work. I logged into my work's enterprise level wireless network both yesterday and today, maintained normal wifi capabilities for 2-4 hours each day, and was then randomly dropped, both days. I tried hard resets, resetting my network settings, airplane mode, etc. Nothing has worked. I am still offline on my ipad mini retina.
    My iPhone 5 is sitting right next to my iPad mini retina. The iPhone is currently connected to the same very network, and has been for the past two years. I have never lost connection on my iPhone's wifi, just my iPad mini retina.
    This must be some kind of bug, as it does not sound like a hardware nor network issue.
    Hopefully they fix this in 7.1.

  • Can't Connect on localhost on new install of CM 13

    Just installed CM 13 to try. Install went fine but when i run, it can't connect to localhost. I have tried replacing localhost with the computer name. Thinking it could be the port but i'm not sure how to change. Also thought it could be firewall. I'm using windows firewall. Computer is XP.
    thanks

    Open task manager and bring up the processes tab.
    Look for 'ExpService.exe'
    Is the memory usage around 350-380k?
    If not, I would check the log files (expconsole.log or server.log) for any port conflict messages.
    To rule out the firewall, just turn it off and restart the CM service.

  • Unable to connect to localhost Windows 7 x64, CF9 x64

    I've been following along with the Lynda.com tutorial on ColdFusion Builder. Everything went smoothly until the part where I'm supposed to attach CFB to the localhost. The Lynda.com presenter is on a Mac. I am running 64-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit ColdFusion 9 developer edition.
    When I would add the local server to CFB, it would sit with status unknown forever. Eventually I would get a message on the console saying
         Error retrieving server version. Cannot perform the operation. Check if the server is accessible from web browser.
    (I was following the thread about remote connection issues with great interest, but nothing there seemed to apply to my problem.)
    I have tried a number of different permutations of installing and configuring the components.
    CF9 x64 Stand-alone
    CF9 x64 J2EE piggybacking on IIS
    CF9 x64 J2EE built-in web server
    I tried these with and without the most recent patches to CFB and CF9
    With the built-in web server, I tried using cfusion:8300. I also tried creating a new server instance called localhost on 8500. When I tried adding localhost:8500 to CFB, CFB locked up.
    I have a feeling that I'm either looking in the wrong place or I have overlooked something obvious. I just thought of one thing I haven't tried... I will try to install the 32 bit version of CF9 to see if that helps.
    Any other advice would be appreciated. Is anyone else running CF9 x64 under Windows 7 x64?
    --B

    I decided to check the system reqs for CFB just in case I made an RTFM gaffe.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=coldfusion_builder
    ColdFusion Builder for Windows
        * 2GHz or faster processor
        * Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 3, Windows Vista® Ultimate or Enterprise (32 or 64 bit running in 32-bit mode), Windows Server® 2008 (32 bit), or Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit running in 32-bit mode)
        * 1GB of RAM (2GB recommended)
        * 1GB of available hard-disk space
        * Java™ Virtual Machine (32 bit): IBM® JRE 1.5, Sun™ JRE 1.5, IBM JRE 1.6, or Sun JRE 1.6
        * DVD-ROM drive
        * Eclipse 3.4.2 or Eclipse 3.5 32-bit (for plug-in installation)
    So, no 64 bit version, but the 32-bit should work... well - that's one less thing.
    I tried 32bit CF9 but the server wouldn't serve any pages. I kept getting a 500.0 error. Adobe has addressed this:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/vikaschandran/2010/07/08/altering-application-pools-in-iis-764-bit- to-create-32-and-64-bit-connectors-with-coldfusion-964-bit/
    but I decided to shut down IIS and run CF9 as a free-standing J2EE using its own built-in web server.
    Once again, CFB locked up when trying to add the new localhost server. I'm going to uninstall and reinstall CFB...
