Sql developer UTF-8 display problems

Hi
I use a development tool that is supposed to allow utf-8 encoding. If you enter text 'ABCDÉFGH' (É is ctrl alt E) through the software it is written to a VARCHAR2 value. When you look at the value using SQL Developer or (Congnos Impromptu) this value is displayed as ABCDÃFGH.
Should Sql Developer convert Ã to É when displaying the value. Or is the problem with the development tool where it is not writing the value to the table correctly.

Hello to all: My iMac has developed a video display problem. It displays everything in cartoon like colors - purple, green, blue. Can this be repaired? Is there a way to output to a different monitor? Thanks in advance! isplays

Hello -
My iMac has developed a video display problem. Everything now appears in a strange, cartoonish way. Purples, greens, blues. Can this be fixed, and if so, any idea how much it might cost? Also, could I output to a seperate monitor? I plan to replace the unit , but cannot right now. Thanks!

Go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing.
In the Display area, reset it to "Black on white" by clicking that checkbox.
You can also reset it by pressing Command-Option-Control-8

SQL Developer 1.5 having problems with JDK 6 Update 7

I tried to open a table using SQL Developer 1.5 but connection timed out. when using SQL developer 1.2 i don't get any problems opening it.
i have JDK 6 update 7 installed.
the only problem with SQL Developer 1.2 is that i get a jdbc in the error log
how do i get to fix the SQL Developer 1.5?

--The sql developer is connected using tnsnames.ora, with read only access
--i'm using windows XP SP3
--I have jdk 6 update 7 installed
--The tables that I can't View is listed under Other Users.
--I thought it was just because i have no permission to view it, but when i used the old sql developer 1.2, it displayed it properly.
--The reason i want to use SQL developer 1.5 is because i don't want to see any JDBC error on log messages, which happens on the sql developer 1.2
--i dont get to see any errors, sql developer suddenly can't view and lost the connection. it says connection is currently busy. and suddenly stops responding, the only way i can get it working again is by using the taskbar, when it close the program it gets java is not responding..
--also when i try running sqlcli.bat i get error with it.. is it because of my java?
--What more details do you need?

SQL Developer and Java GUI problems

I am having a problem with all the java apps i use, including Oracle SQL Developer. When i load up SQL developer, the top of the "Connections" text is chopped off as well as all the table names in the list when I make a connection. Also the java buttons are rather large. Almost as if they have a carriage return in the text of the button.
Its seems the gui configuration for java has been corrupted, but i cannot find where to modify those settings. I cant find anything on the internet on this. I have checked my video card settings and modified them to see if that is the issue, but it doesnt fix the problem.
Since other java apps do the same thing, I know its a java issue, but Ive uninstalled all the JRE's and JDKs i have and reinstalled them, and I still have the problem.
Im on an Windows XP box and running the JDK and JRE 1.5.0_09 versions. Any help would be appreciated. its very annoying to not be able to read some of the text in the java apps including sql developer due to the tops being cut off.
I have an ATI RADEON 7000 on an DELL optiplex gx620.
any help would be appreciated

The first thing to try, if you haven't already, is to update your video driver.

SQL developer some minor anoying problems.

Hello,
can someone please explain to me why i have this problems in SQL developer.
First problem is with search db objects.
When i type in search string and i tick all objects all shemas it starts search ... finds nothing
because search changes "search in all schemas" to "search only under connected user".
Then i have to manually select all schemas and run search again and then it searches under all schemas.
http://s29.postimg.org/p2vdaqxs7/shema_search.jpg
Second problem is (i dont know if this is intended or not) that if i mix upercase letters in search string
with lower case it wont find anything.
http://s21.postimg.org/ke3k8icpz/found_nothing.jpg
Third problem is when search finds something and i click on a table for example from found resoults
it always opens up 2 tables (with same name) and again i have to manually close one of them.
http://s12.postimg.org/s7fwmd1hp/two_tables.jpg
4th problem is speed is there a way to really optimize SQL developer for speed. By that i mean
that finding db objects forks really fast ... switching between tables and stuff like that?
Is there a guide of settings that explains stuff like that?
At each problem i have posted a screen shot for better understanding.
I hope someone will try to help me solve those anoying problems.
Thank you!
PS my sql developer version is 4.1.0.17 problems like these started in 3.x version already.

SQL Developer 3.x Disconnection Problem

We are running SQL Developer 3.1 on Windows 7 64 and connecting to a 11.2.0.3 database.
The user's can connect fine, then they can click through and see their tables. Once they click on the tables to see the columns or data, we immediately get disconnected.
We have 1 user still using SQL Developer 2.x and seems to have no problems. We were using 3.0 and couldn't get past connecting. We would click to see a list of the user's tables and would get disconnected then. Now by moving to 3.1 we at least can listing of the views, tables, etc but once we try to click deeper, we get the disconnect.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the valuable feedback. You said...
What ultimately fixed it for us was switching the DB to DEDICATED from SHARED.A close read of the full thread I referenced above (both in John's comments and the comments of others) does point to the use of shared connections as a risk factor in triggering this low-level TCP bug. Actually even if the DB is configured for shared connections, a user relying on the SQL Developer connection type=TNS (as opposed to, say, Basic), could override the shared connection usage by specifying SERVER=DEDICATED in his tnsnames.ora file.
Some other comments...
1. Out of Band break support in JDBC began with the drivers shipped with Oracle 11g (ojdbc5.jar for 11.1.0.6, ojdbc6.jar for 11.2.0.2).
2. SQL Developer 2.1 ships with ojdbc5.jar, whereas the 3.x releases ship with ojdbc6.jar. These jars are used if no Oracle client is present.
3. If the Oracle client's ORACLE_HOME jdbc\lib contains both ojdbc5 and ojdbc6, a 3.x install may incorrectly use ojdbc5.
4. Out of Band break failures are more common on Windows platforms.
5. Out of Band break failures are more common, per the forum posts and bugs I have reviewed, when using ojdbc6.
Presumably there are timing issues when the ratio of connections to shared server processes is too high. If use of DEDICATED is not feasible, possibly lowering that ratio may help.
Regards,
Gary

SQL Developer 1.5 Connection Problems

Unable to connect to my localhost installation of Oracle 11G in Windows XP environment
SQLPLUS connections look just fine.
I went out to the windows registry to verify the Oracle SID.
The environment ORADLE_SID is set to 'orcl'
I have tried logging in as HR and as SYS. Both work in SQLPLUS. Neither work in Sql Developer.
The connection settings I am using are as follows:
User Name: HR
Password: HR
Oracle Tab Settings:
Role: default
Connection type: basic
OS Authentication: unchecked
Proxy Connection: unchecked
Hostname: localhost
Port: 1521
SID: orcl
Really appreciate your assistance.
Thanks,
Kent

Kent,
Does Oracle monitor this? Yup - I am PM for SQL Developer and various team members, like Turloch, also monitor the forum.
We use thin or thick JDBC drivers to connect to the Oracle Database from SQL Developer, Turloch was trying alternatives. You should be able to connect using the thin JDBC driver, not using tns. (Basic Connection)
When you try the Basic connection, please can you ensure that the Preference (Tools -> Preferences -> Database- Advanced Parameters) "use OCI/Thick driver" is not selected.
Instead of localhost, can you insert the IP address of your machine?
I have one other question - when you installed SQl Developer 1.5, did you install it into a new empty directory?
Finally, if you have a support contract for the Database, you can contact Metalink and open a SR. There you should be able to track your progress and they can help you get connected.

Development module slow display problem

Hello. I have a weird problem with LR 4.3 when using the development module. When a RAW file loads, it would take a second to load (and says "loading"), after which the photo would be sharp, but then the photo would turns soft again, and after about 5 seconds it would become sharp again. The problem persist for both standard and 1:1 previews. Standard preview is set for 2048 pixel, and the display is set to "fit" screen.
My hardware:
Monitor: 2560x1600.
CPU: i7 950
RAM: 12 GB
Video card: ATI Radeon HD4600 series
OS: win7 Pro SP1.
LR 4.3 is installed on a didicated SSD. The catelogs are also installed on the same dedicated SSD.
I would appreciate some suggestions. I have to edit 500+ photos day. Waiting 5 seconds for each photo to become sharp adds 40+ minutes of wasted time. Please help, thanks.

How to get all tables in oracle sql developer with MS SQLServer

Hi All,
I am using microsoft SQL server 2000. For displaying the tables and other stuff i am using oracle SQL developer tool. The problem is when i connect to sql developer with oracle database i can see all the tables in that database. But when i connect to MS SQL server database it is not showing all the tables in that database. I don't know why?.
i tried doing the samething using another tool called Aqua Data Studio , there i can able to see all the tables in microsoft SQL server 2000.
do you have any knowledge regarding this, why i am not getting all the tables in oracle sql developer when i connect to microsoft SQL server 2000.

Same issue here. Haven't found the answer yet..

SQL Developer 3.0.03 table sql tab errors

In SQL Developer 3.0.03 EA3, when you visit the SQL tab for a table the result is not formatted to be readable or usable fashion.
The generated statements do not have terminating semi-colons or separating slashes, nor is there a line terminator after the end of each statement.
For tables with column comments, all the comment statements are generated in a single line. This is very difficult to read.
In order to make a usable or even readable script from this display, every statement has to be edited to add a statement terminator or separator and to start the next statement on a new line.
The same request, against the same database, using SQL Developer 2.1 displays the expected results.
Edited by: djhenderson on Jan 26, 2011 7:55 PM

You should be able to tweak this in Preferences - Database - Unload/View DDL Options.
Be sure to have the Options checked, along with Pretty Print and Terminator.
For the format, tweak Preferences - Database - SQL Formatter - Oracle.
Hope that helps,
K.

ODM within Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 , no progress during Workflow creation

Hi,
I am trying to follow the instructions mentioned at http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/11g/r2/prod/bidw/datamining/ODM11gR2.htm
In the "Create a Workflow and Add a Data Source" section when i try to create a new New Workflow from the menu, the Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 just shows a progress bar pop up with message "Validating and Updating Workflow". The workflow does not gets created even after 6 hours while the progress bar keeps moving. I tried it several times but no luck and hence not able to move further.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,
Are you using the SQL Developer 3.0 Production Release?
Can you try again, but this time launch SQL Developer using the following file:
C:\<SQLDEVELOPER INSTALL DIRECTORY>\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
This will display a console window prior to SQL Developer UI being displayed.
There may be some unexpected exception that is being thrown.
It should display in this console window and give us more information to go on.
It sounds like you were able to create a Project ok.
Did you have any issues during the install of the repository?
Did you happen to save the log?
If so, can you paste it in this thread?
THanks, Mark

SQL Developer 3.1: Job Chains - 2 Bugs.

Hi.
Just having a play with defining job chains in SQL Developer 3.1 and I came across these bugs...
1) When you try to define a new chain using SQL Developer you get, "ORA-01741: illegal zero-length identifier"
If you look on the SQL tab you can see that it is messing up the double quotes, placing two sets of double quotes around the chain_name.
BEGIN
    sys.dbms_scheduler.create_chain(
        comments => '',
        chain_name => '"TEST".""test_chain_3""'
      sys.dbms_scheduler.enable(name=>'"TEST".""test_chain_3""');
END;If you remove the extra quotes and run the code it works fine.
2) The job chain diagram seems to be case sensitive as far as the rule definitions are concerned.
If you follow the chain setup in SQL*Plus described here (http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/SchedulerEnhancements_10gR2.php#job_chains), then check the associated diagram in SQL Developer it is displayed properly.
Now repeat the chain definition from SQL*Plus, but this time define the conditions and actions of the rules in lower case (which is valid and functions as expected).
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.define_chain_rule (
    chain_name => 'test_chain_1',
    condition => 'TRUE',
    action     => 'start chain_step_1',
    rule_name => 'chain_rule_1',
    comments   => 'First link in the chain.');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.define_chain_rule (
    chain_name => 'test_chain_1',
    condition => 'chain_step_1 completed',
    action     => 'start chain_step_2',
    rule_name => 'chain_rule_2',
    comments   => 'Second link in the chain.');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.define_chain_rule (
    chain_name => 'test_chain_1',
    condition => 'chain_step_2 completed',
    action     => 'start chain_step_3',
    rule_name => 'chain_rule_3',
    comments   => 'Third link in the chain.');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.define_chain_rule (
    chain_name => 'test_chain_1',
    condition => 'chain_step_3 completed',
    action     => 'END',
    rule_name => 'chain_rule_4',
    comments   => 'End of the chain.');
END;
/Now check the diagram again in SQL Developer and you will see that all the steps are present, but the links (rules) are not correctly displayed. Seems like it is case sensitive...
If you need any more info, please ask.
Cheers
Tim...
Edited by: TimHall on Feb 10, 2012 4:23 PM

I have confirmed your two test cases are indeed bugs and I have raised them. The first seems to be if you have a mixture of _ and lowercase characters in the name but we will look at other cases too. The second is that the parsing of the condition/action does not uppercase unquoted ids. The second can be cirumvented by using quotes etc.

Japanese characters in SQL Developer Version 1.5.4

I am using SQL Developer ver 1.5.4 with Oracle 11g. There are Japanese characters stored in VARCHAR2 field.
When I execute a SELECT SQL query, SQL Developer does not display Japanese characters in the Result window -- it displays row of small square characters instead.
(When I execute the same query as a script -- it displays the Japanese characters in Script Output window,
What should I do to have SQL Developer to display Japanese characters in Result window?
Thank you!
Mark.
Edited by: MarcoPolo on Jul 7, 2009 11:16 AM

Hi there, Have you fixed this issue?
I'm having the same issue albeit with SQL Developer VERSION 1.5.5
The Select stmt displays the the empty square boxes in the result window, I've set the encoding preferences to UTF8 in the menu and font to Arial Unicode (there is no option to set script to Japanese). How can i display japanese characters in the results window??
When i export these empty square boxes in the result window to notepad (where encoding set to Unicode and Font set to Arial Unicode and Script to Japanese), the japanese value is displayed correctly in the notepad.
Kindly provide some input
Many Thanks

SQL Developer not fetching data tables while writting query

HI , I have recently started using SQL developer 2.1, the problem i face is that SQL DEVELOPER is not showing the tables names while writting the query, we have more than 5000 tables and each table name cannot be remembered.
Thanks
Essa

I'm using the Mac version of SQL Developer (Version 2.1.1.64 | Build MAIN-64.45) and I'm having similar problems. I'm currently using OS X Snow Leopard.
The issue does not happen consistently: If I start writing an anonymous block in a new SQL window, the Completion Insight features works well. I can start typing a name of a package (of which there are many in our db) and I'm quickly provided a list matching what I've typed so far. This is also true of variables, functions and procedures within the packages after I type a period following the package name.
However, if I open an existing package body and start editing, the Completion Insight feature becomes less reliable. If I move my cursor to the beginning of the main block of one of the package body's internal procedures, Completion Insight works. As I move down the package and try to insert new code, Completion Insight stops working. I should note that this package body I'm working with has no errors and compiles fine. I'm not sure what this indicates...whether it's an issue with the editors internal parser or some other issue.
I'm not sure the best method for starting SQL Developer via the console window on the Mac. I found the following sh file which does launch it from terminal:
/Applications/SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS/sqldeveloper.sh
This does launch the application. As I navigate around and follow the instructions you had given (including ctrl-space) I see no output generated out to the console (errors or other messages).
I'm happy to assist in further debugging. Having Completion Insight work consistently will certainly increase my productivity with the tool.
Thanks in advance for any help you may provide.
