SQL Developer Error Creating User Home

SQL Developer was running fine on my Windows 7 64-bit machine until Monday morning. Now when I kick it off (from my Desktop shortcut), I get a small box saying: "Error creating user home in directory C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer".
There is no error number, and I have been unable to find this error in the SQL Developer documentation. What does it mean? It's possible that updates were pushed to my machine over the weekend (unknown -- network sysadmins are elsewhere), but I would have thought I would have gotten a different message if there were compatibility problems. Have I accidentally deleted a necessary file from my local SQL Developer folder? My connection databases are Oracle 11g.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
Here is a thread on the same issue, but so old that the advice it gives is no longer accurate:
Re: Error creating user home in directory D:\Program Files\raptor\jdev.
So let's assume you no longer have write access to your own Windows user directory. To workaround that just add the following to one of the conf files in the SQL Developer installation folder. For example, to run SQL Developer from a flash drive, I modified my E:\sqldeveloper\ide\jdk.conf to include
AddVMOption -Dide.user.dir=../../.sqldeveloperSo that the user home is E:\.sqldeveloper

  • Error creating user home in directory

    Hello All,
    I installed the Jdeveloper with patch p8751878 to work on 11.5.10.2.  This is on a win7 64bit machine.
    My environment and system variables have the following:
    Variable= JDEV_USER_HOME
    value=C:\p8751878_11i_GENERIC\jdevhome\jdev
    When I try to launch the Jdeveloper getting the following message:
    Eror creating user home in directory C:\p8751878_11i_GENERIC\jdevhome\jdev.  Please restart JDeveloper with a new user home specified.
    Error stack shows the following

    Any suggestions as to what could be causing this (pls. excuse if this has been asked before..)?
    Thanks,

    Does anyone know how Raptor determines where it will create it's user home???
    On our development network I keep getting the noted error message, regardless of Windows 2003, 2000, or XP. So Im starting to think we may have some Windows policy that is preventing the creation of the .raptor folder that Raptor creates when it first starts up.
    On my laptop, which is not tied into the development network, I dont have this problem.

  • Sql developer error -No more data to read from socket

    Hi
    I have installed SQL Developer 10.5.5 on my mac os x.5
    and oracle data base is 10.2
    when i am making a new connection from sql developer i am getting this error
    NO MORE DATA TO READ FROM SCOKET
    I tried searching blogs but no luck yet.
    can any one help me....
    Thanks a lot!

    That's typically an error on the database side. When I see it it I know the database is down and once I bring it up, then all is good again. Once the database is up and running, you then start SQL Developer and create a new connection? What type of connection are you creating?

  • Hi, i am new to oracle, SQL DEVELOPER:- ERROR:- ORA-01918

    Hi,
    I am new to oracle, and i have installed Oracle database 12c enterprise edition, and oracle jdeveloper 12c for adf web application development,
    I created a database and a new connection in it using sql developer, however while trying to create new user with the name db1 by right clicking on other users. by following the instructions in oracle documentation site. i get the error that new user db1 doesnt exist, and gives error:- ORA-01981. i even tried by changing the username as i thought may be it doesnt support alphanumeric name, but still i get the same error.
    So please tell me how to create a new user. is there any way to get out of this ora:-01918, as i googled and it says this is a bug.
    My os is win 7 x64(amd processor ).
    Thank you
    Baldwin

    A new user (called a schema in Oracle) is created using the CREATE USER SQL command. You need to be signed in as the SYS schema/user or as a schema that has been granted the rights to create schemas.
    12c database comes in two basic flavours. Container database (containing pluggable databases). Standard database. If connected to a container database, you cannot create standard user schemas - you need to be connected to a pluggable database.
    Also, your question has no relevance to either the SQL or PL/SQL languages - the subject matter of this forum. Please repost your question to a more appropriate forum dealing with SQL-Developer issues.

  • Oracle SQL Developer  error - "The file-based source procedure Name is not present in the database."

    I recently started working on the Oracle SQL developer. I have 'select' privileges on the QA schema and when tried to execute proc in QA. It is giving the error as 'The file-based source <procedure Name>  is not present in the database.  Was it compiled?'
    instead 'you do not have sufficient privileges to execute this procedure'. Did research on internet but with no luck.What configuration changes needed to be done to make it work.Guide me.

    Sounds like you do not have the correct privileges.  What should have been granted to you by the QA user, or some other user with appropriate privileges, is...
    grant EXECUTE on "QA"."<PROCEDURE_OF_INTEREST>" to "<YOUR_USERID>" ;
    Note that a grant of execute on a procedure has nothing to do with grants of select on some or all of QA's tables and views.
    So, as Vadim suggests, from your connection node in SQL Developer's Connections view, if you expand the Other Users node, then expand QA and look in the Procedures node, do you see the procedure of interest?  If not, you cannot expect to be able to execute it from your userid's connection. And even if you do see it, you may have some other privilege that permits viewing but not executing, like...
    The role SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege SELECT ANY DICTIONARY
    And even if you do not see it there, then having certain other privileges granted to you could permit executing it in general, like...
    The role EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
    Also, note that the 3.0 release is a bit dated nowadays. Upgrading to 4.0.3 production or even the 4.1 EA2 (early adopter) release will, in general, give you a better experience.
    Best wishes,
    Gary

    Thanks ,
    satish.pWith the caveat (as already pointed out by Srini in this thread) that no Oracle product has ever been certified on any "home" edition of any version of Oracle ...
    If I were looking to download any product, I'd start by going to that company's web site (like, www.oracle.com) and look for a tab or link called "download". I'll bet if you did that, you'd find all sorts of goodies.
    But, again, since you are dealing with a "home" edition of Windows, you'll need to start by installing a virtual machine product -- VM Ware's "VMworkstation" or "VMplayer", or Oracle's VirtualBox. Then you can create a virtual machine running a supported OS. Oracle's own Linux (derived from Red Hat Linux) is also free.

  • SQL Developer Error

    I keep getting the following error message when trying to execute a custom package:
    Error starting at line 1 in command:
    call xxnwu_bud_vacant_pkg.GET_POSITIONS ('31-JUL-2009', 3001)
    Error report:
    SQL Error: ORA-04063: package body "APPS.XXNWU_BUD_VACANT_PKG" has errors
    04063. 00000 - "%s has errors"
    *Cause: Attempt to execute a stored procedure or use a view that has
    errors. For stored procedures, the problem could be syntax errors
    or references to other, non-existent procedures. For views,
    the problem could be a reference in the view's defining query to
    a non-existent table.
    Can also be a table which has references to non-existent or
    inaccessible types.
    *Action: Fix the errors and/or create referenced objects as necessary.
    I called the package and it worked fine. I then added code but forgot to insert the ; at the end of the statement and it did not compile giving me an error message. I fixed the error and recompiled the package. When I tried to call the function again I got the above mentione error. I removed the changes I made so that the function would be the way it was when it did not give me an error but it still gives me the error even though it is the same code that worked an hour ago. The package compiles without any errors but I keep getting the error above.
    Does anyone have any advice??
    I have tried SQL Developer 1.5.1 & 1.2.1
    I have tried to drop the package and re-create it but it does not solve my problem.
    Thanks
    Roald

    It looks like the PACKAGE compiles fine, but the PACKAGE BODY has an error.
    Klick on the "+" left of the package to expand it.
    Right-click on the package body and compile it.
    You should see error messages.
    Yours,

  • SQL Developer error when opening

    Greetings all. I just downloaded the current SQL Developer version 1.5.1 Build 5440. Upon initial start up I got a Ordinal 2821 could not be found in libeay32.dll error. I downloaded the latest libeay32.dll (852 K-8/28/2008 2:03 PM modified date) into the c:\windows\system32 directory. Now I get a Ordinal 3288 could not be found in libeay32.dll error. There are several libeay32.dll files of different sizes in the openssl directory.
    I'm running Windows XP Pro service pack 3.

    The problem you hint is a known problem.
    If Java crashed with other application, the LIBEAY32.DLL librarry getting created can affect the SQL developer starting.
    Please rename your file "LIBEAY32.DLL" found under "c:\windows\system32" folder and then you should be able to launch SQL Developer.

  • Error creating user defined tables: Ref count (-1120)

    Hi all !
    I have to create user defined tables per code, so I wrote <b>2 main functions</b>, first <i>to create a table</i> (with TableName,TableType and TableDescription properties)and  and <i>second to add fields</i> (to a certain table which is sent as parameter).
    I call these functions to create multiple tables. For the first 6 tables it works totally ok. But beginning from the 7th table it gives that "<b>Ref count for this object is higher then 0.</b> " (-1120) error. All parameters are ok just as the first 6 tables.
    Found such an explanation like below in help files.
    <i>The DI API allows only one instance of a meta data object at a time. This maintains data integrity by preventing any manipulation of a business object while modifying the object's user fields. Therefore, verify that no other DI object is active except the meta data object.</i>
    But why do I get such an error after sixth call of the function (but not beginning from the second table )?

  • Encountered SQL Developer Error 'Can't Start because MSVCR71.dll is missing

    Hello,
    Thanks for looking at this entry
    I have an older version of SQL developer and it suddenly won't run with the following error
    'Can't Start because MSVCR71.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program.........'
    And it is indeed missing. So, rather than download what might be a virus from the internet (new version of MSVCR71.dll ), I tried to do a new install of SQL developer from:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
    I put it on my D drive, unzipped and tried to launch.
    It asked where I had java.exe (full path name). I found it at C:\Windows\System32\java.exe
    Now I encounter: Cannot find J2SE SDK installed at path C:\Windows\System32\java.exe
    Please help
    Regards
    Bill

    Hi,
    The 32-bit and 64-bit Java 7 JDKs include only msvcr100.dll, 32-bit Java 6 includes only msvcr71.dll, and 64-bit Java 6 has neither!
    Also, keep in mind that Java 7 is not certified yet for ANY* version of SQL Developer. The standard recommendation is to install the latest update in the Java 6 JDK code line (currently 1.6.0_45) and use that. Make sure to get the 32-bit version!
    Regards,
    Gary

    Corrected which Java downloads actually contain the msvcr71 and msvcr100 DLL versions. Sorry for messing it up the first time!

  • SQL Developer Error when connecting to Listener on Glassfish

    I am having some issues with connecting to Apex Listener via SQL Developer. I get "cannot connect to connection" when I attempt to connect.
    I do get apex pages (when I use the Glassfish default port - it doesn't seem to take the specified port which is defined as 7788 in the apex.properties at the config.dir location).
    I have defined the user via the war config (which is written to the credentials file), and added the users under default config > file realm in Glassfish.
    I wonder if anyone has had a similar issue?

    I have defined the user via the war config (which is written to the credentials file), and added the users under default config > file realm in Glassfish.You only need to do the former, doing the latter should have no effect, I would remove the user in the GlassFish file realm, to avoid causing confusion.
    I wonder if anyone has had a similar issue?
    Ensure you have spelt the role name correctly when setting up the user, any typos (it is case sensitive) and it won't match the role, and will therefore refuse access.
    You have disabled SSL verfication as well? (If you are not using SSL)
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37099_01/doc/doc.20/e25066/install.htm#CHDJFAAI
    If neither of those work, try turning on logging in the Listener to see if the request is even reaching Listener (It sounds like it's not even connecting TBH).

  • OIM - Error Creating users

    I created a group (useradmin) which has two users assigned and this group is added to all the organization as admin group.
    The group has two menu items to create/manager users. All permissions have been added to this group.
    An admin user logs on to create another oim user. Enter all the details and clicks on "Create".
    An error shows up on the create user screen indicating create user failed. The error is:
    DOBJ.GRP.PERMISSION_ERROR
    You do not have sufficient privileges to assign this group.
    however, the user is actually created in OIM but looks like it did not.
    Can someone please tell me what the issue is?
    The group has ALL permissions and they are Read/ Write perms on all objects. Every Org has this group added to it as administrative group. Not sure what else to try.
    OIM 9.1.0.2 BP05, WL 10.3.2

    Hi,
    As per the error, while creating the user, it is trying to make user member of some group (can you check do you have any rules created to make groupmembership) and the logged in user wont have permission on that group, by default when user is created it will be member of All Users group check for that one also
    Thanks,

  • Error creating user in UME or visual administrator

    I am trying to create solman_admin userid in J2ee. I tried first in UME - Identity Management signing in as j2ee_admin when I click on create user I get
    Current user has user creation permissions in the UME, but cannot create users in the back-end system (data source). The original and possibly untranslated message was: "No active writeable datasource found for user creation, check your Persistence Configuration.".
    I then tried signing into the Visual Administrator with j2ee_admin and creating a user there but still get an error message cannot create user.  I believe the error message above is saying that j2ee_admin does not have access to update in ABAP?  Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
