Sql Developer wont convert Sql Server to Oracle lob w Oracle 11gr2 client

I have the Sql Developer 2.1.1.64 loaded on a Windows machine accessing Oracle 11g release 2 database on a linux box with no jre. I have the latest version of java (1.6.0.21) and jdk (6 u 21). When I loaded Oracle 11g r2 client onto my windows box, all sql server tables could be moved to my Oracle repository except tables that converted from a Sql Server 2005 type of nvarchar(max) to nclob. I would just get every row in the error column during the move.
Turns out when I uninstalled the Oracle 11g r2 client and installed the Oracle 11g r1 client, it worked.

I'm afraid you're in the wrong forum. This is the Berkeley DB Java Edition forum.

Setting Up SQL Developer for MS SQL SERVER 2000
1) Install/Extract SQL Developer 1.2.1 in C:\Program Files\Oracle
     Making the {$sqldevhome} = C:\Program Files\Oracle\sqldeveloper
2) Obtain the JDBC SQL SERVER Pluggin (jtds-1.2.2-dist.zip) from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33291&package_id=25350
3) Unzip jtds-1.2.2-dist.zip
     Creates:      jtds-1.2.2.jar
               \x86\SSO\ntlmauth.dll
4) Copy the jtds-1.2.2.jar into:
{$sqldevhome}\jlib Directory.
5) Copy the the ntlmauth.dll dll in the \x86\SSO subdir into:
{$sqldevhome}\jdk\jre\bin\ntlmauth.dll
6) In SQL Developer:
     Got Menu "Tools"
               - Preferences...
               Expand the "[+] Database
               Choose "Third Party JDBC Drivers"
               Click "Add Entry"
               Then Browse for your copy of "{$sqldevhome}\jlib\jtds-1.2.2.jar"
               Note: Use the jar filename, not its parent directory for entry.
7) Restart SQL Developer and try your SQL Server 2000 Connection

Connect from SQL Developer to several SQL Server instances

Our SQL Server has more than one instance, but I see only one instance of them trying to connect from SQL Developer 1.2 to SQL Server. How I should define the connection information? Usually we connect to SQL Server by <hostname>/<instancename> and then the database name as CatalogName (Initial Catalog). In the Oracle world you can give only the hostname, a port number and the database name. How I can convince the SQL Developer to choose one of our SQL Server instances?

Hi user627927,
Bug/Enhancement request already logged.
We have not got this configuration in house, two people have suggested workarounds but we are unable to test them for now. The last person was unable to get these workarounds working, and we have not confirmed them in house.
Can you get the instances connected through two different ports?
It would be great if you could confirm either workaround.

*1/Suggestion 1 change the url through SQLDevelopers xml connection store.
[Note it is probably simpler to connect a dummy connection through the connection dialog as usual save it (you cannot connect) and then add the instance information rather than having to enter all the information in an unmanaged way.]
Hi Naveen,
I had same problem as you and user579801. I managed to resolve it by doing the following.
1. Locate the file called IDEConnections.xml in the folder where you have installed SQL Developer (eg. c:\sql developer\sqldeveloper\system\oracle.jdeveloper.db.connection.11.1.1.0.11.42.62).
2. Create the following entries under <connections> tag.
<connection>
<URL>jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://\\.\;namedPipe=true;instance=SQLDBNam;</URL>
<ConnectionName>SQLServer</ConnectionName>
<user>SQLUser</user>
<ConnectionType>JDBC</ConnectionType>
<DeployPassword>false</DeployPassword>
<JdbcDriver>net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver</JdbcDriver>
<RaptorConnectionType>Microsoft SQL Server</RaptorConnectionType>
</connection>
3. Save the file; Close and re-open the SQL Developer and try connecting.
Hope this will solve your problem. Good luck.
Regards
Raja
*2/Overload the port field to have instance in the eventual url
This took some figuring out but I cracked it in the end....
SQLServer tab:
Hostname: <servername>
Port: <portnumber>/<databasename>;instance=<instancename>
so for me the Port field looks like this: 1433/Gaffa;instance=SQL01
That should now connect to a named instance SQL Server.

SQL Developer vs. SQL*Plus Performance???

Hi,
DB: Oracle 10.2.0.3.0
SQL Developer: 1.2.0
SQL*Plus: 10.2.0.3.0
I am running the same query once in SQL Developer (Response time 10 sec.)
The same query in SQL*Plus takes over 20 Minutes.
SQL*Plus is using SQL*Net right?
Is that the reason?
Thanks

Hi,
how can I check for SQL Developer?
Does SQL Developer use SQL*Net also?
I changed the arraysize to 1000
but does not see any performance gain.
The query still taking more than 6 minutes.
The same in SQL Developer runs within 10 seconds!
Thanks

Issue with SQL Developer connect to SQL server

I'm using "SQL Developer 2.1.1.64.45" to work on a migration project which needs to convert a SQL server database to a Oracle 11g database. But I got an issue when I setup the SQL server connection. The SQL Developer let me connect by selecting a SQL server database name (For example: Northwind), but once connected, it always connected to "master" database instead. The "SQL Developer" is running on Windows 7 Professional (x64) platform. My Oracle database is 11g, and SQL server database is SQL 2005. And my SQL server instance name is "SQL2005". Anyone have ever experienced this problem? Thanks in advance.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the feedback, lets stick with SQL Developer 3.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
You attempted to migrate from SQL Server to Oracle including target generation and datamove in one go, by filling in each step of the migration wizard to the end.
During the datamove you got
ORA-01000:maximum open cursor exceeded
So it looks like SQL Developer during the migration is not closing cursors fast enough and hits the maximum number of open cursors in your Oracle database.
I think the default max open cursors is 300 in Oracle.
There are a few things we can do here.
You should be able to see the new migration project in your Migration Projects navigator.
By navigating down the project tree to "Converted Database Objects" we can attempt the data move again by right clicking and choosing "Data Move".
But first I would restart SQL Developer so as to free up any lingering open cursors.
That may allow you to complete the data move, as the only cursors being open are being used in the data move and not some cursors which may have been left open from previous steps in the migration.
Now from my perspective I would like to identify where are we leaving open the cursors, so I'm going to setup some testcases my end to see if I can replicate.
From your perspective Id presume you just want to move on with the migration.
So if the above (shutdown and attempt just the data move) doesnt workyou could
A) Increase the MAX OPEN CURSORs on your Oracle databases so it complete the data move
or
B) Use the offline data move technique.
A) Increase MAX OPEN CURSORs
This wiki explains how to do that, looks like 1000 is fairly common, but even a much larger number is not a problem
http://wiki.oracle.com/page/OPEN_CURSORS
ALTER SYSTEM SET OPEN_CURSORS = 10000;
OR
B) Offline Data Move
If you are moving large amounts of data (say > 1GB), then the standard data move (we call it online), which just uses JDBC to SELECT * FROM and INSERT INTO may not cut the mustard.
In this case you can try using our offline technique. SQL Developer will generate a set of scripts for you.
unload_script.bat will use SQL Servers BCP tool to dump out the table data into DAT files.
oracle_ctl.bat will load the data in the DAT files into Oracle.
As we know the names of all the tables, columns ,both SQL Server and Oracle, we can generate fairly good scripts.
The benefit of this technique is large amounts of data can be migrated and you get to use tools designed to dump data and load in data, so you have better error logging and tweaking.
To attempt this in the Migration Wizard , Data Move page, select offline.
If you can describe your database a bit (number of tables, number of procedures, amount of data to migrate) I may be able to define my testcase better so I can replicate the issue.
Thanks

Sql developer 3.0 - SQL Server tab missing

Hi There,
I use SQL Developer 3.0. I only see two tabls in New Database connection screen, Oracle and Access, I need to connect to Microsoft SQL Server, but there is no tab on this.
How do I get this resolved.
Thanks

Sql Developer 2.1 - "sql server" can't see tables

I'm running sql developer 2.1 on Linux Mint -- connected to MSFT sql server with JTDS driver.
I can query just fine. However, there are no tables in the object browser. No objects at all beyond the main categories (tables, stored procedures).
Lee

"I see...said the blind man to the deaf man".
I found all my tables.....they were under "dbo" not the user I logged in as.
My connection is: database MyDataBase username myuser
The object tree looked like:
MyDataBase
- dbo
- myuser
+ tables
+ stored procedures
- someother
- andanotherone
I went to "myuser" which I considered to be the schema owner, but all the objects are actually owned by dbo -- and they are there under dbo.
To further test -- I created table "table_test" -- and it appeared under dbo, not "myuser". Now that I understand the behavior, I'm back to LOVING Sql Developer. Thanks for helping and keep up the good work.
I much prefer to work on oracle databases -- but at least I can keep using this excellent oracle tool even when forced to work on Microsoft Sql Server :)

SQL Developer wont work via SSL (TCPS)

I am trying to get SQL Developer (1.5.1) to connect to our Oracle database using SSL (tcps -- port 2484) and am getting a very generic error. (I have no error connecting to the same database over the unencrypted port -- 1521).
Status: Failue - Test failed: Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.
I personally think that the connection is timing out, but all logging/debuggig features I can find do not prove anything either way. I have successfully connected to the database via SSL using tnsping and sqlplus. I have also successfully imported the certificate from the database server into the cacerts file in sqldeveloper/jdk/jre/lib/security This error is the same whether I use my TNSNAMES file or a custom JDBC url.
Please reply if you have questions/ideas/solutions.
Thanks, Dan

This has helped, but I am not 100% there.
After altering my setting to use OCI/Thick driver and upgrading to 11g client, (and verifying that I could sqlplus/tnsping/odbc as before) the following happens:
When testing the connection or trying to connect with tnsnames method, the dialog box comes up just telling me it's testing/connecting, and never stops trying (and therefore also never fails).
This also happens when I try to connect via a custom JDBC URL,
BUT
When I test the connection using the same JDBC URL, I 'succeed' -- so I must be close.
My Custom JDBC URL is
jdbc:oracle:oci:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcps)

(SECURITY =(SSL_SERVER_CERT_DN="CN=hostname.fqdn, OU=My Unit, O=My University, L=City, ST=State, C=US")))
What might I be missing?
Thank you.

SQL Developer / JDK On Windows Server 2008 64 bit R2

Does anyone have the recipe to fix the annoying message: "Cannot find a J2SE installed at path: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6"? I get the same message, when trying to set up and run SQL Developer on a Windows 2008 server with SQL Developer 32 bit, Java 1.6 and Java 1.7 32 bit, and now trying with SQL Developer 64-bit with JDK 64 bit. Thank-you.

SQL Developer requires a JDK, not a JRE. When you are asked to select the path you need to into "C:\program files\jdk1.6.0_35\bin" (or whatever) rather the the jre6 directory.
If you are using SQLDeveloper 3.2, then you need to be using the latest JDK 1.6 release. The bittage of the JDK should match your SQL Developer (and your oracle client if you are using one).

SQL Developer 3.0.04 generated scripts not compatible with Oracle 10g (XE)

HI,
I tried to do an export from one XE database (still 10g) to another XE database. (also 10g).
I tried to do a database copy as well as a separate export and import (by loading the file and running as a script).
Neither of them work without modifying the files as it seems that SQL Developer generates scripts that are only compatible with Oracle 11g.
- Create table contains "segment creation automatic"
- Storage clauses contain parts that are not compatible with 10g
I ran through the wizard several times but neither can I find an option to choose for compatibility with earlier versions of Oracle.
Checked the preferences screen as well.
Is this a well hidden option or is it not possible to make this work for 10g.
Extra : found workaround by removing the storage clause to the export. Is there another way that does not force me to remove the storage clause?
Edited by: kcaluwae on 24-jun-2011 6:03

I'm sure this is far from the supported way to fix this but, seeing that it's apparently an issue with the classpath or something in it, I hacked <sqldeveloper_install>\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.bat and added [ORACLE_HOME]\jdbc\lib\ojdbc6.jar to the classpath. At least that gets me started with 3.0 and lets me create TNS connections.
I'd really appreciate a better solution, if any of you kind folks knows of something.
Thanks,
Kelly

Able to connect via Oracle SQL Developer, but not sql plus

Using Oracle 10.2.0.
I can connect using the TNS connection type in SQL Developer, but cannot do so in SQL PLUS. SQL Plus gives me the error -- could not resolve the connect identifier.
When I do tnsping USPO_ADHOC, I get:
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION =
TNS-12533: TNS:illegal ADDRESS parameters
So here is my tnsnames.ora file:
INTL_ADHOC =

(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = intl1)
USSYN_ADHOC =

(CONNECT_DATA =

USPO_ADHOC =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.239.162.107)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = uspo)
Any assistance gratefully appreciated. Thanks.

I actually did not have that environmental variable, so I added it, but nothing changed.
I would note that if I do tnsping foo, I get: failed to resolve name.
If I do tnsping USPO_ADHOC, I get: illegal address parameter.
In both cases, the output correctly identified the path to my sqlnet.ora file, which is in the same directory as my tnsnames.
So I would conclude from that, that the system was already able to find my tnsnames file.
Anyway, here's my sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)

Could u pls help me out on this??

Well, not supported does not necessarly mean does not work, but if you have problem, then your only way is to find a solution on your own or through other fellows who are doing the same.
Anyway, you could ask your question in the SQL Developer dedicated forum, but again, you could have some unexpected issues by working on non-supported config :

SQL developer connect to SQL server database

Hi Friends,
I have a sql developer 3.2. I download jtds1.2 as a thirty part driver in window. It works and SQL server tab appear on connection window.
But Retrieve database button does not work and not able to enter a sql database name.
Without database name , I got error message as failure 0 test failed:unknow server host name 'CACI1111\SQLEXPRESS'. I use defolt 1433 port.
However, I can open SQL server 2008 express in my local PC.
What do I need to do it?
Thanks

Hello,
my syntax to connect to a non-local SQL Server 2005 Express database is nn.nn.nn.nn/testdb in the hostname field, where nn.nn.nn.nn is the IP address of the other PC and testdb is the name of the database.

SQL developer wont start on Mac OSX Lion

Hi there,
hoping someone can help me with this one, I've been running SQL Developer 3 on the macbook no problems for about a year, I recently upgraded to Mac OSX Lion and now when I try to start SQL Developer it will not run.
I have downloaded and installed the latest version of java as directed on the SQL Developer download page.
When I start SQL developer and view the Activity Monitor the "bash" process starts to use 100% CPU very quickly and SQL developer does not even get to the splash screen.
Can anyone point me in the right direction in terms of diagnosing this issue? Is there a log file I can review or way of starting SQL developer with specific arguments?
Kind regards,
stu

Usually the SetJavaHome points to the root directory for the JVM installation, this directory in your case appears to be
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0_26-b03-383.jdk/Contents/Home
so try setting this in the SetJavaHome command for your SQL Developer (the bin folder will be added internally)
I'm not completely sure as i do not use macs, but it's worth a try.
Just had this same problem with Mountain Lion/SQL Developer 3.2.2, right after my upgrade to Mountain Lion. The path shown in Irian's response is what did the trick for me. The /System/Library/.... path shown by some others doesn't even exist on my machine. Interesting....
