SQL Developer 4.0.0.12-12.84 Connection Names

Hi,
in the new 4.0 it is no longer possible to use the "@" char. Thats fine for me (i have used user@db for my connections) - but is there a possibility to Exchange then the "@" with an "-" ?
I have ~ 200 stored connections - it is a bit annoying to drop / create it when a password has expired (due the old one can't saved back)
... and by the way: might it be possible to create subfolders? - would be a bit easier to handle the connections
(also: the connection dropdown list gets quite unusable over time - the more connections are used the longer the list... - but i don't have an idea how to overcome that...)
best regards
Werner
PS: it is really a Connection per user / database - we just have 30+ databases with a lot of users in it where we code...

Hi Werner,
by the way: might it be possible to create subfolders?
Only a single level of folders under the Connections node is supported at this time (right-click on an existing connection > Add to Folder)
You can always log an enhancment request on the SQL Developer Exchange.
it is really a Connection per user / database
If you leave the Username/Password input fields blank when creating the connection, opening the connection will display a dialog prompting for them.
Regards,
Gary

  • SQL Developer and Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Connection Problem

    I am using SQL Developer version 1.2.1 and am connecting to a 10g database on a windows xp.
    Up until today there have been no problems with the connection. When I tried to connect to the database and have not been able to.
    The error states that "...listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12505, TNS; listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor..."
    Also tried to log into the database home page but page doesn't load...

    I'd bet the database is down.
    Try a login through sqlplus ("Run SQL Command Line" in the Oracle Express Edition 'Start' menu).
    Do a CONN / AS SYSDBA
    If you get a message about database or memory area not available, try STARTUP.
    If that doesn't work, you are best off in the General Database forum or the Express Edition forum.
    You'll probably get the most expert response in General Database, but the Express Edition forum can be gentler on newbies (as it is more accepted that questioners are not and do not have access to full-time DBAs).

  • SQL Developer Blocked and is not allowed to connect to database ORA-200001

    SQL Developer Blocked and is not allowed to connect to database gives ORA-200001.
    i found on net that DBA can write triggers which can deny connection to database from certain appplication.
    so i want a way to change application name so that when it connects to database
    the V$SESSION will have different value (other than SQL Developer) in column PROGRAM and/or MODULE (which i think is used by dba to restrict the connection).
    one more way is
    i am using jdbc url to connect to database
    in java we can change properties of connection to change the PROGRAM in V$SESSION.
    but i am not java expert so dont know how and where to make the changes
    either way my aim is to connect to database such that V$SESSION will have different value (other than "SQL Developer") in column PROGRAM and/or MODULE

    This is not system configration or credential issue.
    This is a check which is put DBA using logon trigger
    to check certain user loging in using certain application.
    only some users using particular username are getting this error when they try to logon using oracle sql developer
    the same users when uses different username(some generic user names created to access database) to access the same database then they are able to login.
    similarly if they login using SQL navigator they are able to login with both their own and the generic user name
    more over of all the database instances this is only happening on some of the instances and all of them are development instances.
    following will help you understand
    USER | DBUSERNAME | DATABASE | APPLICATION | ACTION
    X | X | DB1 | Oracle Sql Developer | Blocked
    X | G(Genric) | DB1 | Oracle Sql Developer | Login Success
    X | X | DB1 | Sql Navigator/SqlPLus | Login Success
    X | G(Genric) | DB1 | Sql Navigator/SqlPLus | Login Success
    X | X | DB2 | Oracle Sql Developer | Login Success
    X | G(Genric) | DB2 | Oracle Sql Developer | Login Success
    X | X | DB2 | Sql Navigator/SqlPLus | Login Success
    X | G(Genric) | DB2 | Sql Navigator/SqlPLus | Login Success
    I just want to bypass this check which i think uses V$SESSION and columns PROGRAM and/or MODULE to check the application used by particular user.
    if i can override these values some where in oracle sql developer before loging in the DB then i can clearly pass this check and login to database.

  • SQL Developer crashing when opening or testing a connection

    SQL Developer closes abruptly when opening or testing a connection.
    Here's what I do.
    Open SQL Developer.
    Create a connection:
    Connection Name: [some string]
    Username: [username]
    Password: [password]
    Save password: checked
    Oracle tab:
    Connection type: TNS
    Connect Identifier: somedatabasename
    Then I click on "Test" and the application immediately quits. No error messages. The app does the same thing if I save the connection and try to expand its node on the list of connections.
    Mind you, if I use sqlplus like so:
    [username]/[password]@somedatabasename
    It connects just fine.
    I captured the output from the command console after SQL Developer crashed:

  • SQL Developer 4.0 - Database Diff - turn off schema name in generated script

    SQL Developer 4 / RDBMS 11GR2
    I know SQL Developer 4 is EA, but maybe the question has the same answer in 3.3.  Also if 4.0 EA questions need to be asked in a different forum, please advise.
    I am new to SQL Developer and I admit to using brand Z (TOAD) for many, many years.
    (1) When using Database Diff, is there a setting to turn off the schema name that is displayed in the scripts that are generated?  I looked in PREFERENCES, but if it is there, I did not see it.
    (2) While I have found good resources on SQL Developer, is there a FAQ on Database DIff that answers a lot of these silly type questions?
    Thanks in advance

    On the first screen of the DIFF wizard there's a check box for 'Schema' - uncheck that.

  • SQL Developer 1.1 close - no error msg (connect after changed TNS info)

    We installed a new QA database and as a result I had to change the connection credentials. After doing this on a connect, SQL Developer closed without any warning.
    The following repro steps:
    1.) I right click on the connection name and click on Properties
    2.) In the New/Save Database Connection dialog I had the following in the Oracle>TNS>Connect Identifier box:
    (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.111.xxx.xx)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = netqa) ) )
    3.) I changed this to the following and then tested the connection (successfully) then clicked Save and Cancel to close the dialog:
    (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.111.yyy.yyy)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = netqa) ) )
    4.) On the connection name in the tree control, I right click, click on Connect, specified the user name and password and then OK
    I then noticed that my SQL Developer application disappeared.
    I opened it again and used the Test button which works fine but as soon as I click Connect it also closed the application.
    I then had to choose the Basic option to setup the connection info which resolved the problem.
    I reproduced this on another connection and got the same thing.
    I must mention that I imported these connection from a file I created by exporting the connections from the previous production version.

    I am having the same problem. Too bad no one else has replied. Test connnection works and sometimes I get into the application. The first few times I was able to get it to list the object types (tables, views, etc.) though nothing was listed when I tried to explode each list. This could be because the userid I am logging on with has no objects and I haven't figured out how to make it list all objects as I can in SQL Navigator or TOAD. Now it seems that anytime I try to open one of the connections, the application simply vanishes. No no warning, no messages, it just closes.
    I AM trying to use an older unsupported DB version. The first few times when it actually connected to the DB I got a warning message about an unsupported version but now I get nothing. I am starting to think that this is an intentional glitch to punish companies that are still running older versions of their database (out of necessity). If you can connect to non-Oracle data bases it seems like an older Oracle version shouldn't matter.
    Anyone else have any clues why the applicatioin just closes without warning?
    Config:

  • SQL Developer 3.0 EA1 creates case senstive account names

    Hi,
    When creating a new account with SQL Developer 3.0 EA1, the user name is enclosed in quotes. This creates a case sensitive account name which creates problems when trying to sign. Historically account names have been converted to uppercase internally and during the logon sequence this is expected behavior. Not sure why the SQL Developer 3.0 EA1 team has chosen to start encapsulating usernames during creation in quotes?
    Example of create user statement from 2.0
    -- USER SQL
    CREATE USER why_this_old_way IDENTIFIED BY scott ;
    -- ROLES
    GRANT "RESOURCE" TO why_this_old_way ;
    GRANT "CONNECT" TO why_this_old_way ;
    Example of create user statement from 3.0 EA1.
    -- USER SQL
    CREATE USER "why_this_new_way" IDENTIFIED BY scott ;
    -- ROLES
    GRANT "RESOURCE" TO "why_this_new_way" ;
    GRANT "CONNECT" TO "why_this_new_way" ;
    Having case sensitive object names greatly increases the complexity unnecessarily, please don't implement this approach.
    Scott K.

    Please tell me how you accessed the create user UI. Is this new "functionality" occurring from the DBA Navigator?
    It's looking like it changed in both dialogs to me are you seeing the same thing? I'll dig in and see why this was changed.
    Thanks,
    Syme

  • SQL Developer cannot execute multiple queries in one connection

    Hi,
    Using : SQL Developer 1.2.29.98, Oracle Database 9i on Windows XP.
    Currently I have TOAD and PL/SQL Developer to handle things related to Oracle Database.
    I found this SQL Developer tools as an interesting tool which might replace PL/SQL Developer (I assume).
    I opened two SQL Worksheets and tried to execute 2 queries (time consuming one) simultanously, suddenly it freezes (the window become grayed). Just like TOAD, we cannot smoothly execute multiple queries on single connection on SQL Developer
    I can monitor the query process using TOAD (Session Browser) and found both queries are running while SQL Developer window become grayed and seems not functioning. After the queries have been finished, I mean both of them, the SQL Developer window become normal and "alive" again showing the expected results.
    Well, however PL/SQL Developer could handle this. Executing multiple queries in single application is just its unbeatable features.
    We can view the query result once its finished instead of until the others being processed, by just only switch the SQL Windows.
    Is it true that SQL Developer doesn't support executing multiple queries?
    Or is it a feature which we should request?
    Or we have to activate this feature by doing some changes on configuration / preferences?
    (Do we need to open two SQL Developer instances? what a memory consuming solution).
    Regards,
    Buntoro

    SQLDeveloper connections are single threaded and also rather single minded (in that you can't do much else while a long query is running.)
    There is an existing feature request http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:39:3685254426061901::NO::P39_ID:4202 for which you can vote.
    The workaround is to have multiple connections. Not brilliant but it works.

  • SQL Developer 1.5.1.54.40 Test Connections fail

    Test connections are failing unless the connection is saved first..Is this a feature?

    Not seen anything like that with a valid userid/pass being reported as incorrect when testing. Testing connections for me is correctly reporting invalid userid/pass when password is invalid and reporting success when password is valid. I also cannot connect if I have an invalid password.
    It appears that the Connect has an implicit save, so without selecting Save they are still saved to disk in the standard connections file.

  • Setting/using a variable in a package in SQL Developer

    The 10g db I'm working with has a package that contains a variable and routines to set and get the value of the variable. The variable is used in a number of views to tailor data displayed according to the variable value. This all works well in applications, which set the variable after a connection is opened and then issue queries against the views, and then close the connection.
    This also works well in Toad - I can open Toad, run a package routine to set the value and then open views (or run queries against views) in Toad to see how different variable values effect the data displayed. The package variable maintains its value so long as Toad is open, which seems to imply that Toad keeps a connection open.
    But I can't use SQL Developer in the same way. I can run the SET routine, but it has no effect in on views subsequently run. When running the SET routine, setting the value to 1, the output is:
    Connecting to the database HERC DB.
    Process exited.
    Disconnecting from the database HERC DB.
    I can then run the GET routine, but the value of the variable is always zero:
    Connecting to the database HERC DB.
    v_Return = 0
    Process exited.
    Disconnecting from the database HERC DB.
    The implication seems to be that a connection is made, the routine is run and then the connection is closed. The closing of the connection resets the variable. Is there some way I can have SQL Developer behave like Toad, such that the package variable value is maintained for my SQL Developer session? I've looked at connection roperties and application preferences, but I've not seen anything that seems to be related keeping a connection open.
    BTW, I have tried the "connection startup script", but to no avail. Perhaps I've doen this improperly; the script simply attempts to invoke the package set routine, like so: myPkg.set_identity(1)
    Thanks.

    When running stored PL/SQL through the IDE context node or editor, indeed a new session is opened and consequently closed on completion after committing. Although great for having the IDE free to continue working, it does have its drawbacks when you want variables to persist and changes to be visible in the IDE before committing.
    To prevent the new session and the commit, just call the PL/SQL from a worksheet (in a call, query or anonymous block).
    The startup script should work in that respect, but make sure to wrap your call in an anonymous block, else you'll get a syntax error.
    Hope that helps,

  • Connect to SQL Server with Oracle SQL Developer

    Hi,
    I am unable to connect to a named instance (Enigma\Enigma) on my local machine using sql developer. Every time I try to connect it says Cannot connect to Microsoft SQL Server on Enigma.
    Somebody please assist.

    Have you tried it on Forum : SQL Developer

  • Sql Developer 1.5.5 bug with large sequence start values.

    We have a small table in our sql server 2005 schema (~700) rows. Its primary key is a bigint. We randomly generate ids for this table (don't ask). We have ids for this table which are larger than 2147483647. (java.lang.Integer.MAX_VALUE). I'm using a Windows 10g instance as the repository:
    SQL> select * from v$version
    2 ;
    BANNER
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Prod
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
    CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production
    TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
    Capturing this model works fine.
    Converting this model works fine.
    When the converted model is "Generated", Sql Developer stops generating the script before the worksheet window is opened with the generated sql. If run from sqldeveloper/bin, this exception is output to the console:
    java.lang.Exception: java.util.NoSuchElementException

    A problem row can be viewed by issuing this query against the repository:
    select * from md_sequences where seq_start > 2147483647;
    We have one row returned. The oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.MdSequence class uses a java.lang.Integer value to store the start value for the sequence. The value stored in the repository's MD_SEQUENCE table overflows the Integer type.
    Updating the SEQ_START column in the MD_SEQUENCE table fixed our problem. (Well, I can now generate the schema. I may have other problems with the sequence being off).
    I've written this post to save someone else the day it took me to diagnose this problem with Sql Developer 1.5.5. At the very least Sql Developer should inform the user that it could not generate the script because of the large sequence start value. It basically swallows any error and terminates script generation without any type of feedback.

    Update: I was able to recreate the problem!
    1. Create a new table (I used TEST).
    2. Mark first column af primary key.
    3. Save the table.
    Notice the name of the primary key index created: (TEST_PK in my case)
    4. Edit the table.
    5. Under constraints change the name of the primary key constraint.
    6. Save the table.
    Notice that the index still has its original name.
    7. Edit the table.
    8. Change something.
    9. Attempt to save changes (Fails).
    Conclusion:
    Either SQL Developer should be aware of indexes with different name than a constraint,
    or when SQL Developer changes the name of a constraint with an index, both the constraint and the index should be renamed.

  • SQL Developer Installation Problems

    Hi,
    We are trying to find a workable alternative to TOAD and have tried to install SQL Developer with not much success.... I think I am just about to give up but hope this last attempt to post for help can create a miracle.
    I would appreciate very much if any one knows of a comprehensive document out there that can help trouble shoot the installation problems.
    Let me give you the hardware and software versions first and then the problems.
    1) SQL Developer tried: sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213-no-jre and sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213
    2) JRE tried: JRE 1.5 and JRE 6 (C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_03)
    3) Window: XP Professional version 2002 Service pack 2
    4) Hardware: Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz, 1.98 GB of RAM
    Problems:
    1) SQL Developer could not find native JDBC. I don't understand why, despite all the variables set in Oracleclient10g_basic in the registry, SQL Developer did not seem to be able to find a 10g client on a network drive. I have to install 10g client directly onto my pc (C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1) to solve this problem.
    2) SQL Developer abruptly disappeared after database login.
    I was able to connect and log into an Oralce 10g database with TNS Connect Identifier approach. There were objects (tables, views, etc) showed up briefly on the left hand side of the SQL Developer and then it just completely disappeared without even an error message or a tearful good-bye.
    The only thing I can find is this error log about EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. After hours searching through OTN for possible mentioning of this error with SQL Developer, I found nothing so far.
    Why is it so difficult to install SQL Developer? Are there a set of un-spoken pre-requisites that has to be satisfied before it can be installed properly? If so, what are they? Path system variable? Registry? Anything else?
    Here's the complete EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION error log:
    # An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:

    Is this a java problem? SQL Developer problem? Or something else?
    Thanks in advance,

    The problem you are seeing (the EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION) is a result of a version mismatch between the JDBC driver being used by SQL Developer and the Oracle client that is found on the path.
    This issue only occurs when trying to use the OCI version of the JDBC driver. The simplest fix is to switch to using the basic connection type and thus using the thin (all Java) JDBC driver. As no Oracle client is required in this case, the version mismatch won't be an issue.
    However, the connection approach you are using should work, and if you wish to try to sort out the problems there, we should be able to further diagnose the underlying cause of the version mismatch.
    To do this, I would need to see what SQL Developer thinks are the potential Oracle client installs, as well as which install it ends up picking. Can you copy/paste the output in the Log Window (Logging Page) that is present after SQL Developer starts (but before you attempt to connect to any database)? There should be a whole series of entries like 'Checking for ORACLE_HOME environment variable' and 'Checking JDBC driver at <some path>'
    These log entries are output by SQL Developer as it tries to sort out the various bits of information about Oracle client installs and thus give a peek at the selection logic being used.
    Oh, and also - the value of your PATH variable would be useful as well. It may be that there is an Oracle client install on the PATH that supersedes the install SQL Developer is finding via the registry or ORACLE_HOME variable.
