Unable to use backspace key in SQL Developer

hi
I am unable to use backspace or arrow keys in SQL worksheet using SQL developer.
Can any one help me out...?
You can also contact me on [email protected]
regards
Ahsan

Hi,
to give a worst case. I downloaded actual releases for JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper for MacOS and on my Mac this case is totally unsolved. I tried to check he settings within the preferences.xml but no "googled" solution works to get SPACE and BACKSPACE to work.
I will try the older versions.
I previously used my migrated versions from my older Linux system and everything worked fine. Installing the integrated MacOS versions is fine but using the linux way (using the shell command) seems to work. Hope this will help to find the bug within the packages.
Bye,
Holger

Using tab key in SQL developer

I am trying to write my PL/SQL code using SQL developer and I want to use the tab key for my alignment. Whenever I press the tab key the cursor is not moving forward. Do any of you know how can I make it work?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you for pointing out a "known problem" with the accelerators! I've been having a problem whereby I suddenly became unable to use the backspace or delete keys to make changes to code. Interestingly, I loaded the preset accelerators as you suggested to handle problems with the tab key and suddenly everything else works fine now.

And i gave the host as localhost. I don't know how to fill the connection name field..can anyone help me in connecting to the database...By the way I'm using Oracle 11g. Thankssssss

you could try to change the connection type to TNS and pick the database name available to you in the Network Alias drop-down list.

Problems using Quick Migrate in SQL Developer 1.5 for MySQL to Oracle 10g

Hi all,
I am trying to use SQL Developer 1.5 migration tools (Quick Migrate) to perform online capture and build source model to migrate from MySQL 5.x to Oracle 10g on Windows platform. I get these errors and the Quick Migrate process fails:
oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.PersistableObject.doInsert(PersistableObject.java:238)
I did a search and used the sqldeveloper.cmd script but still fails. Then I created a new database and truncated the repository. I now get the above error plus two new ones listed below:
oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
Error occurred during capture: Protocol violation
It fails during the capture process for MySQL 5.1 database
when it begins to capture the tables from MySQL.
Does anyone know how to resolve these issues when migrating from MySQL to Oracle 10g using Quick Migrate with SQL Developer 1.5 release?

Ben Prusinski

Hi all,
I put the following in my sqldeveloper.cmd file:
SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
What is very confusing is that with SQL Developer 1.5, there are several levels and several SQL Developer executables! I am really not sure which of these to use:
I created the SQLDeveloper 1.5 directory called SQLDeveloper1_5 on Windows:
1) cd C:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338
there exists a sqldeveloper.exe
2) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe
3) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloer\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
Which SQLDeveloper 1.5 executable should I be using and where should I place the
sqldeveloper.cmd file?
Also I did try to use a different database and schema for the repository with Quick Migrate but it appears a bug exists in SQL Developer 1.5 version that causes errors with Quick Migrate for MySQL to Oracle? Is this correct?
As an update, I ran the following commands:
cd to
c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
Start sqldeveloper.exe
Perform standard capture for MySQL using the new mig2 schema as the new repository
It starts the capture but fails on the errors below:
Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
UPDATE
============================
I tried this again and it worked with the exception of one error message listed below:
Here are the steps that I followed:
1. Create a Windows cmd script
Put the following entries in the script:
SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
save the command windows script as sqldeveloper.cmd
Copy this script to the base installation directory for SQLDeveloper
Example:
1. cd c:\SQLDeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper
2. Start SQLDeveloper with the command script that you created earlier
Example:
Open a Windows shell prompt window and execute the following scripts:
a) sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
b) sqldeveloper.exe
3) In SQL Developer 1.5
From the Migrate menu,
a) Delete current repository and create a new schema in Oracle target database call it mig2.
b) Then create a new repository in SQL Developer 1.5
c) Right mouse click on the MySQL 5.x database and choose capture
It worked with the exception of one error message:
o.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
Error while registering Oracle JDBC Diagnosability MBean.
So it looks like something is screwed up with my JDBC drivers and configuration for MySQL. How do I diagnose the JDBC driver issue for MySQL?
Thanks!!!
Ben

Error using Data Miner on SQL Developer

Dear all.
I'm trying to use Data Miner on SQL Developer (3.1.06) with Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 -
64bit Production, with the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options.
I created a project, a workflow, a data source, a classification model and connected them.
I tried to show the Decision Tree generated as described in the tutorial "Using Oracle Data Miner 11g Release 2".
But, I receive the message "It's not possible to load the data mining model because it does not exist" in a dialog box entitled "Model not found".
It seems that something was missing either during installation or granting my user.
Does anybody have seen this message and know what causes it?
Any other suggestion is welcome.
Regards,

Hi Mark.
Thank you on replying my post.
I'm not the DBA of Oracle repository here. So, if possible, I'd like to address my issue without having to do anything in it.
I'll try to state better what we have here.
When I try to use latest SQL Developer version, 11.2.1.1.7.42, it got me a message stating current repository isn't compatible with this SQLDev version
Repository version is: 11.2.1.1.3
I don't know what type of upgrade SQL Developer wants to do...
About your other questions.
"Is the model not found error occurring for all models or just the DT model?" -- The error occurs for all 4 standard models: SVM, GLM, NB and DT. But, I'm able to see all other options: "show tests results", "Compare tests results".
You did not report that the workflow failed, so you must be seeing a successful completion status for each of the nodes. -- Yes, all steps are executed and finished OK.
Are you using a proxy user or some other connection definition other than a standard connection. -- No.
There is currently some problems supporting proxy based connections that will be fixed in a upcoming SQL Developer release.
So, if you can provide me some details on how your connection is defined, that will be helpful.
How was the product installed and the user granted rights? -- I need to ask PUCRS DBA team to answer these questions.
Was it done through the UI or by running the scripts in the dataminer/scripts directory?
Lastly, what is your client operating system and are you using the SQL Dev 64 bit or 32 bit release? -- I tested in 2 different computers, both with Windows 7 Professional. In my notebook, it's 64 bits OS version.
Thank you for your attention and kind reply.
Regards,
Duncan

Unable to use fn-bea:execute-sql() in an XQuery in Workspace Studio 1.1

When we create an XQuery file in Workspace Studio 1.1 (ALSB 3.0), we are unable to use fn-bea:execute-sql(). It throws an error saying "unknown function". It doesnt allow us to publish the XQuery file to ALSB instance due to the "unknown function" error. However if we directly upload this file to ALSB console, it accepts it and the execute-sql function also works grrat. Can you please let us know if we have to configure anything on the Workspace studio to be able to use XQuery Extensions for Service Bus ? Or can you please let us know if we should declare any namespace in the XQuery file to use fn-bea:execute-sql() in Workspace studio ?

It sounds like a bug. Can you please contact bea support?

Unable to view table list in sql developer

I am able to connect to the database through sql developer but unable to view tables list.
Select query is displaying the contents though.
Any Help ???

Using SQL Developer, I log in using the owner user id and password. I can see all but one of my materialized views. It was definitely created by the user id I'm logged in as. A query of user_objects in sql+ shows all MVs, including the one that's missing in SQL Developer. If I log in using the same credentials in TOAD, the MV is displayed in the current schema, as I'd expect. The super weird thing is that if I use the previous version of SQL Developer, I see that MV! Any thoughts?

Using XML functions in SQL Developer

Hi,
I'm using OSD 1.5.3 on a WinXP machine. I love OSD and use it every day! But I think i found a little bug. When you use some Oracle XML functions like (XMLELEMENTS and XMLAGG) in your query (these functions return CLOB values) it hangs OSD.
For Example:
SELECT XMLELEMENT("Relation",
XMLELEMENT("Name", 'Dennis'),
XMLELEMENT("DateOfBirth", '09/28/1975')
) as Relation
FROM DUAL;
Are there some parameters I can set to prevent this, or is this a bug?
Kind Regards,
D.

Your query works fine for me from SQL Dev 1.5.3 (JDK 1.6.0_06), using either a JDBC or TNS connection (Oracle Client 9.2) to a 10.2.0.3 DB. Another thing which I have no idea if it is relevant (someone else may be able to say) is the following line from Help > About > Properties:
oracle.xdkjava.compatibility.version 9.0.4
Given that it works fine over TNS connections from SQL*Plus and PL/SQL Developer, I would assume that it is something related to your SQL Developer setup, unless you are using a different version of the Oracle client for these tools.

Import data using Excel and Oracle SQL Developer - I need some help

Dear friends,
I'm using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.1 and I need to import an Excel file into a database table. If I try to import this file in XLS format, fields and headers are correctly being shown and separated, but if I press "Next" button, it simply doesn't do anything - it stays stopped.
I did some search here in this forum and it seems to me that, when you try to import a file via XLS format, SQL Developer has bugs. Is this correct?
If I save the same file in CSV format and try to import the same file, it goes ahead, but SQL Developer is not separating fields and headers correctly. It combines all CSV fields into one - let's say Column0 and fields 1;TEST;01/01/2000 below the same Column0.
Saving the file in CSV format is not a problem, taking a very little time. But I don't know how to make SQL Developer import it correctly. Could somebody please help me? Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Franklin

Hello K,
yes, you're right. I found the following topic after posting this question here.
Re: After update to 1.5.1, import from Excel fails
I downloaded version 1.5.0 and I'll use it whenever I import data from Excel.
Thanks,

Connect using OS authentication in SQL Developer

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for your answer Raghu, when this feature will be implemented it will help a lot to keep security.

Unable to create TNS connection in SQL Developer

This is my first time install SQL Developer 1.5 on my computer and when I try to create a connection using TNS Connection Type to connect to Oracle database, I get this error message:
Status: Failure -lo exception: SO exception was generated.
Do you know how to resolve this error?
Thanks,
Lily

Hi Lily,
This error is due to a tns entry that is unusual/malformed.
Note that
1/sqldeveloper picks up tnsnames.[a variety of endings not just ora] rather than just tnsnames.ora .
2/We recently released 1.5.1[.54.40] is that the release you are using
Can you post the 'problem' tns entry with ip and service name replaced by a stub?
ie something like:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = my.machine)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = my_service_name)

Bug - unable to create new connections on SQL Developer 4.0.0.13

Upgraded to SQL Developer 4.0 and we are unable to create new connections in the Connections pane on the left hand side.
Clciking the green plus button and right clicking Connections and 'New Connection' doesn't bring up the New Database Connection dialog box.

Sounds like an 'install' problem.
Can you extract the zip to a new directory and try again? You did extract v4 to a fresh directory, yes?
