SQL Developer 1.5.4 doesn't work

I've been using version 1.5.3 without any significant problems.
I downloaded the file which includes the JDK.
When I click on the .exe file the splash screen appears and I'm then asked to configure file type associations, after clicking okay the screen dissapears and nothing comes up.
I've checked in task manager and the program is running it's just that it's invisible?!
Please help.

Here's the first few lines:
Excepting initializing ' oracle.ideimpl.searchbar.SearchBarAddin' in extension 'S
earch Bar' : java.lang.NullPointerException
at oracle.ideimpl.searchbar.Colorprovide.isFusionLAF<ColorProvider.Java:35>
at oracle.ideimpl.searchbar.SearchBarAddin.initialize<SearchBarAddin.java:37>
at oracle.ideimpl.extension.AddinManagerImpl.initializeAddin<AddinManagerImpl.Java:405>
There's lots more but I don't want to type it all!
Thanks

  • SQL Developer: Right-click format doesn't work right with DATE datatype

    Hi All!
    Currently I'm using version SQL Developer Version 3.1.05.
    Got a question regarding the 'auto-format' of syntax whenever writing in the code editor.
    If you take this snippet of code and drop it into a worksheet, then highlight it, right click the mouse, then select "format" it's like it fails to add the proper spacing when it runs into the DATE datatype. I looked all through the : preferences > database > sql formatter > oracle formatting > edit and couldn't find anything regarding the formatting with date types.
    Am I looking in the wrong area?? Is this a known bug? Having trouble searching for this exact issue too. I LOVE the format feature, but I hate having to go to each date type and manually spacing it out to make everything look 'clean'. I'm picky I guess :P I can live with it but figured I'd ask.
    type TEMP_REC
    IS
    record
    ORG_CODE VARCHAR2(15),
    PROJECT VARCHAR2(15),
    WBS VARCHAR2(30),
    SERIAL_NO VARCHAR2(30),
    QTY_ORDERED NUMBER,
    QTY_SCRAPPED NUMBER,
    QTY_COMPLETE NUMBER,
    BOM_ID NUMBER,

    ACT_HOURS NUMBER(6,2),
    BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );

    Hello,
    I put 3.1.07 as you'd suggested. Seems the problem is still occuring for me... probably a user preference though ;)
    Open a new worksheet and drop this in, highlight everything, right-click and choose "format". All the keywords (varchar2, number, etc) should align on themselves making it look nice. I have mine set up to line-break after a comma. (I can't get it to format properly as I type it here onto the forums, so added a bunch of spaces to try to mimic it in this view)
    type TEMP_REC
    IS
    record
    LEAD_TIME NUMBER(5,0),
    SCRAP_PERCENT NUMBER,
    CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
    MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
    OPER_SEQ VARCHAR2(6),
    REF_NO VARCHAR2(2000),
    COMMENTS VARCHAR2(2000),
    BOM_FLAGS VARCHAR2(100),
    BOM_ATTR1 VARCHAR2(30),

    BOM_ATTR3 VARCHAR2(30),
    BOM_AMT1 NUMBER,
    BOM_AMT2 NUMBER,
    BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );
    Now, let's add another field in there, but this time a date/timestamp datatype. If you format it like this you will see that the keywords sort of 'reset' their position after it encounters a date/timestamp datatype. The date type doesn't align properly with the others.
    type TEMP_REC
    IS
    record
    LEAD_TIME NUMBER(5,0),
    SCRAP_PERCENT NUMBER,
    CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
    MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR2(30),
    OPER_SEQ VARCHAR2(6),
    REF_NO VARCHAR2(2000),
    test DATE,
    COMMENTS VARCHAR2(2000),
    BOM_FLAGS VARCHAR2(100),
    BOM_ATTR1 VARCHAR2(30),
    BOM_ATTR2 VARCHAR2(30),
    BOM_ATTR3 VARCHAR2(30),
    BOM_AMT1 NUMBER,
    BOM_AMT2 NUMBER,
    BAD_COMMENTS VARCHAR2(1000) );
    Might post a picture next time if that still isn't clear, though I konw folks are leary against clicking links to see screenshots. Might you know what I'm doing wrong here?

  • SQL DEVELOPER cut and paste does not work, slow and cannot work fast.

    I have lots of difficulties using SQL Developer, the cut/paste does not work properly, when I type search in he code editor it just paste or type the test in the source code not in the serach box. Very hectic I'm pallning to swicth to TOAD until they a a good version.

    Hello Aukhez,
    I'm sorry to hear that you're having problems with SQLDeveloper - personally, I've never had any problems with cut/copy/paste and searching, and I've been using SQLDeveloper from v1.0 to the current version, on practically every version of the JDK from 1.5-1.6u16 on both Windows and Linux.
    Sorry to state the obvious, but perhaps if you could provide a bit more specific information - such as platform, version, etc - and details of what you tried to do, someone here might be able to help...? Regarding speed, there are quite a few things you can do to make this better, but again, without knowing your setup, it's hard to give you proper directions. Plus, you'll find numerous threads here and on google about what you can do to improve speed.
    Regards,
    John

  • Copying from Oracle SQL Developer to Microsoft Word doesn't retain formatting (Font,colors etc)

    Copying from Oracle SQL Developer Worksheet doesn't retain formatting (font,color etc...)in Microsoft Word but copying from other programs such as
    visual studio, chrome browser etc works fine. This doesn't work even after changed the setting to Keep Source formatting of Options-> Copy and Paste Settings

    Hi,
    I notice that you have cross posted in Answers forum and Oracle forum. Have you tried Mr. Peter's suggestion?
    Then, I recommend we check the Word settings:
    1. Go to: Options > Advanced > Cut, Copy and Paste
    2.  Make sure that Use smart cut and paste is ticked. 
    3. Click the Settings button next to this option
    4. Make sure that Smart Style
    Behavior is checked.
    If the issue still exists, please upload a sample through One Drive, I want to test.

  • SQL Developer (Cloud connections) to Cart not working

    I follow the QBE execise along with Oracle Public Cloud. Why nothing happend when I drag/drop tables in SQL Developer (Cloud connections) to Cart?

    Can reproduce same issue in 11gR1.. DIFF works fine in 10gR2.
    I noticed that 10gR2 allows something like:
    DBMS_METADATA.SET_TRANSFORM_PARAM(th,'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES',0);
    and 11GR2 returns error similar to error SQLNAVIGATOR returns while running diff:
    DBMS_METADATA.SET_TRANSFORM_PARAM(th,'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES',0);
    end;
    Error report:

  • SQL Developer 1.5.5 Tables Node Works a few times

    When I connect and then view my current users tables by expanding the Tables nodes on the left hand side it works. It will work several times bur after being logged in for a while it stops working although other portions of developer continue to function fine. To resolve this I have to completely close developer and then run it again and connect.

    java.runtime.version     1.5.0_06-b05
    Oracle Server is 10.2.0.3.0
    Oracle Client is 10.2.0.4.0
    Client OS is XP Pro SP2
    Lets say I add a filter to the Tables Node and then later change it or even remove the filter and no tables show up. Disconnect does not fix it. I have to exit SQL Developer and start it again and connect. the does not seem to be a real pattern as to when the tables no loger show. i will say remove or change the filter and you can see it thinking and then the + sign goes awya but no tables listed even when I know some match the filter or even when no filter.

  • SQL Developer F* keyboard shortcuts don't work on mac

    So... guessing there are not a lot of mac users of SQL Developer, but for the few of us, could someone please change all F key shortcuts to something else? F keys are natively mapped to OS functions on Mac OS X, and so are not usable out of the box.
    This means that I have to remap ~30 shortcuts if I don't want to be clicking in a new SQL Developer install.
    Also, I really hope this is the right place to put bug reports/feature requests, because there is no "support" section on the main site.

    Yeah, it's an annoyance, particularly the things mapped to F9-F12, as those are bound to Exposé and the Dashboard. I'm not sure if we would default to using no F keys, as we have a lot of keybinds and restricting the number of keys available could lead to requiring odd combinations of modifier keys. We'll take a look at it for a future release.

  • PL/SQL procedure to insert data doesn't work and unable to find reason.

    Sorry that I couldn't find the best place to post this question. It seems that the forum does not deal with this kind of question. I post here for help.
    I have a stored procedure to insert data into one table. SP was compiled without error and executed without error (from log table to get information). But the data was not inserted into
    the target table. I have tried different way to figure out the reason. But I failed to get any idea. Please help me to find possible reasons. The smple SP looks like this:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE my.sp_insert( P_DATE IN VARCHAR2)
    IS
    declare section
    begin
    insert into target_table (column1, column2, column3, column4)
    select record1, record2, record3, record4 from table1, table2, table3, table4
    where clause;
    commit;
    exception section
    UPDATE PROCESS_LOG_TABLE CLAUSE;
    html_email section;
    rollback;
    end my.sp_insert
    I have tested that "select record1, record2, record3, record4 from table1, table2, table3, table4" really fetch the 7,000 records. and if I only run part of SQL from SQLPLUS as
    insert into target_table (column1, column2, column3, column4)
    select record1, record2, record3, record4 from table1, table2, table3, table4
    where clause;
    It will work and insert 7,000 records into target table. Why did it not insert into target_table when execiting as stored procedure? Please help with your input. Thanks.

  • PL/SQL SSO SDK Sample Application doesn't work!

    In the latest document on the SSO SDK (http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/A97329_01/manage.902/a96114.pdf), there is a major programming error in the sample application on page 4-5. There is an invalid EXCEPTION block followed by an invalid ELSE block.
    There is absolutely no help from Oracle Support or Metalink on this issue. I am calling upon all Portal Developers frustrated with this very obvious syntax error to pressure Oracle to rewrite this document ASAP. From what I have read, this seems to be a problem since mid-2000. Let's flood Oracle Support with e-mail demanding this issue to be resolved at the highest priority!
    I can't believe Oracle would allow this document to be released without being thoroughly proofread!

    Bill, thanks for bringing this to our attention. We certainly do our best to avoid documentation inaccuracies. Given the scope of the documentation, unfortuately occationally things slip through and we certainly appreciate it when people take the time to let us know if they find a "doc Bug".
    Hopefully this won't happen too often but just in case (refering to the documentation)
    If you find any errors or have any other suggestions for improvement, please indicate the title and

    I had the same issue (new SQL Developer not seeing tnsnames.ora file). Once I moved the folder into my ORACLE_HOME, it found it fine. I'm guessing it uses relative addressing (..\network\admin) to locate the tnsnames.ora file. It could also be that defining either ORACLE_HOME or TNS_ADMIN also might work.
    I really don't want two versions of SQL Developer (especailly one which doesn't work). What are people's thoughts on deinstalling the version that comes with 11g, and then moving in this sqldeveloper folder into ORACLE_HOME? An install document says that you shouldn't extract the standalone version (either 1.5 or 2.1) on top of the original version (1.3). I can sort of understand that, as it looks like there have been some significant changes (before, it was sqldeveloper.bat; now it's sqldeveloper.exe).
    I did do this (deinstall, unzip, then mv of folder), sql developer ran fine (and did see TNS files). I'm assuming since it's no longer in the inventory, I won't have issues with upgrades or CPU patches making changes to it's files (it's effectively sefl-supported now).
    The only thing I lost was the shortcut under the Start Menu. Is there an easy (scriptable) way to create this? I need to integrate this into some .bat files, which I've written to semi-automate client installs (ie. main one calls setup with a response file in -silent mode, etc.)

  • My SQL Developer is not working correctly! help

    hello!!
    My problem here is not like I can't live or work but it is REALLY annoying, see my SQL Developer is not taking any key different from letters and the space bar, I mean, if I use the enter key, doesn't change the line, if i use the backspace key doesn't erase if I use F5/F9 doesn't execute the query(s)!!!! and so the arrow keys don't work!!!
    any ideas why is that happening? and if so howcan i fix it?

    There is a well known but still unresolved bug causing this kind of behavior, if you are on SQL Developer 1.5.X you can work around the problem by loading default accelerators from:
    Tools -> Accelerators -> Load Preset -> Default
    If you are on 2.1.X the preset can be loaded from
    Tools -> Preferences -> Accelerators -> Other Actions -> Load Keyboard
    In 2.1 this problem has not been reported so far, so if you are in 1.5.X you may consider upgrading.

  • Transport to Consolidation system doesn't work

    First of all, sorry if this is a silly question but I have to admin I am a little missed with NWDI. Every step we did we have a new error
    In this case, we have trying to move a iView using NWDI and process to transport from
    Development Environment to Consolidation doesn't work.
    We have done all steps to deploy changes in Development and iview
    has been updated correctly. But then, when we release the DC in NWDS
    and go to Transport View - Consolidation tab and we do the import
    althougth we have a successfully message with "Import Finished", the
    iview has not been updated in Consolidation system .
    We have doublechecked server, port and SDM password in Runtine System
    tab for this server and everything is OK.
    I have analyzed all logs generated during Import process in Transport
    Studio and no error is showed.
    I have find in CBS Consolidation builspace and we don't have any activities pending, and additionally the DC doesn't appear in this buildspace. However in Development buildspace it is.
    Could somebody help us putting some ligth on it? Where can I to try to obtain log information about why this change is not moved to Consolidation?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Javier,
    I have sometimes a similar problem: we are developing WebDynpro applications. The activities are checked in and transported correctly, but on the destination system only the old release shows up.
    My solution of this situation is not elegant, but effective (steamroller tactics or in german "Holzhammermethode"):
    - Log on to the console of the machine where your destination system for your deployment is running. Start up the (really slow) standalone SDM application and select the components, which are not updated correctly, for undeployment and undeploy them manually.
    - After successful undeployment reimport the component/activity in the JDI transport studio again.
    As mentioned before, not elegant, but effective. It worked for all the situations now, when the deployment did not work, but there was no obvious reason available.
    Regards
    Karsten
