Using SQL Developer and IPC connection

SQL Dev 1.0.0.15 on Windows XP
On the windows PC I am run SQL Dev on I have a Listener & tnsnames setup to use an IPC connection. I did not have the listener setup to use a protocol of TCP. The connection to the db worked fine via sql+. Also I have toad on this PC and it worked just fine via the IPC connection.
I installed SQL Dev and tried to use the IPC connection. It did not work. I kept getting the message of "unable to access the network adapter" or something close to that. The message made sense as an IPC connection does not use the Network or Network adapter.
I ended up setting up the listener to listen for both IPC and TCP and SQL Dev worked.
My question is does SQL Dev use only the JDBC thin driver as it is my understanding the thin driver must use TCP. And is there a method to allow SQL Dev to use an IPC connection.
Here is my currect listener and tnsnames. SQL Dev I simple listed the parms to connect via TCP in the basic tab of the connection dialog.
listener=
(description=
(address_list=
(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=localhost)(port=1521))
(address=(protocol=ipc)(key=to2))
sid_list_listener=
(sid_list=
(sid_desc=(sid_name=to2)))
tnsnames:
to2.world =
(description =
(address = (protocol=ipc)(key=to2))
(connect_data = (sid=to2)))
Thanks

As packaged, sql dev uses the thin driver.
I believe that it is possible to dump the thick driver in its place (most likely in jdbc/lib) and use that with the advanced connection tab. I have yet to see anyone submit instructions on how to do it, so I am not of much help beyond saying that it is possible.

SQL Developer and TOAD connection.

Hi,
I am able to see the DDL script for tables using TOAD, but NOT using SQL Developer (2.1.1). Same user, pass, and tnsname file.
They use same tnsname.ora file on my computer. I set basic and TNS connection for SQL Developer.
The connection is from my computer to the server (Oracle 11.1.0.7 EE).
ORA-31603: object "ALARM_DEFINITION" of type TABLE not found in schema "AIRCOM"
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SYS_ERROR", line 105
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_METADATA", line 3241
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_METADATA", line 4812
ORA-06512: at line 1
It is same with packages. I cannot see package body.
What is the different and which additional privileges I need to see the DDL script?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Konstantin

I don't think it's a connection issue. There seem to be differences in how Oracle and Toad access system views to show objects. If you search the boards you see it has effected a couple of people. Sometimes they post what permissions they changed to get things to work for them.
ie... Re: Issue with viewing Package Body in SQL Developer 2.1 RC1
I don't think I've seen any official documentation to indicate what privileges need to be granted in order to see them thought. And I think there is a bug that prevents generating DDL for tables owned by other users. I don't know if that extends to generating stored procedure code.

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).

Cannot connect to database using SQL Developer

Ok. Here are the facts:
1) I can connect to the database using PL/SQL Developer.
2) I wanted to try SQL Developer and I am unable to connect to the same database with SQL Developer. I provide username and password and select "network alias" and click test and I get "Network adaptor could not be established"
3) TNS names.ora file resides on a mapped drive which clearly is accessible by PL/SQL developer but not by SQL developer.
What am i missing?
Thanks a lot

If you can select a network alias, then sqldeveloper has found your tnsnames and the problem lies elsewhere.
Is the network drive specified by a UNC? SQLDeveloper doesn't work well with unc names.

Connection ... able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too

Hi folks, having this issue, with only one of my so many databases, what might be the reason and how to fix/correct this, please assist.
Able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too; sqlplus error: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
thanks in advance.

SQLDEVELOPER works since it use JDBC Thin & does not use tnsnames.ora
ORA-12154 ALWAYS only occurs on SQL Client & no SQL*Net packets ever leave client system
ORA-12154 [B]NEVER[/B] involves the listener, the database itself or anything on the DB Server.
ORA-12154 occurs when client requests a connection to some DB server system using some connection string.
TNS-03505 is thrown by tnsping & is same error as ORA-12154 thrown by sqlplus or others.
The lookup operation fails because the name provided can [B]NOT[/B] be resolved to any remote DB.
The analogous operation would be when you wanted to call somebody, but could not find their name in any phonebook.
The most frequent cause for the ORA-12154 error is when the connection alias can not be found in tnsnames.ora.
The lookup operation of the alias can be impacted by the contents of the sqlnet.ora file; specifically DOMAIN entry.

Problem when connecting sql server 2005 using SQL developer

Hi,
I installed Sql developer and I am trying to connect sql server 2005 using windows authentication. I had previously the SSO folder problem saying the path is missing in java.library.path. I copied the SSO folder into Sqldeveloper directory. I changed the settings under computer management->services and applications->sql server configuration manager->sql server 2005 network configuration ->protocols for sqlexpress->I enabled TCP/IP.
Now I am getting an error saying "Failure-can not open user default database.Login Failed. Login failed for user ...".
I am able to connect thru ODBC driver using windows authentication.
Any help on this is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Lakshmi

Hi Martin,
Your solution has solved my problem too. Thanks for posting these workaround fixes :-)
However, there seem to be a problem with datetime fields. The query:
select getdate()
returns something like: oracle.datetimestamp.@1aed4
Is there a way to get around with this? Otherwise, using SQL Developer as a client for SQL Server doesn't serve the right purpose when we cannot access simple date fields :-)

How do I make a connection to SQL Server Express using SQL Developer 1.5.3?

How do I make a connection to SQL Server Express using SQL Developer 1.5.3, if it's possible at all?
Also, I received a SQL Server dump file of some sort. Is there any way to read this file in SQL Developer and migrate the db to Oracle? Unfortunately I don't have raw DDL and DML for this database--just some sort of a binary dump file from SQL Server.
Thanks.
Dana

Are you using SQL Developer 1.5.3 or 1.5.4?
If using an older version (i.e. 1.5.3), then you'll have to add a DLL to your environment. This is [ntlauth.dll].
If you don't find this DLL in your SQL Developer directory, then 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
Copy the ntlmauth.dll in the ...\\...\ide\lib directory (no need to register it).
Note: this approach should work if using DQL Developer 1.5.3 and SQL Server Express 2008

M. R.

The connection export function it's available in 2.1.1.64, you need to right click on the main Connections node, and it will allow you to export all or part of the current connections, or import from a previously exported file.
As for the highlight statement feature it's available in SQLDeveloper; actually you do not even have to highlight the required statement, as long as you take the habit of ending every statement with a ";", in this case you only need to place the caret inside the statement and SQLDeveloper will automatically highlight it for you (if you want to manually highlight a statement you can still do so without problems).
Finally as a last try to solve your connection problem without having to call for network support you could try to check
Preferences -> Database -> Advanced -> Use OCI/Thick DriverThis will force SQLDeveloper to use your oracle client for connections instead of it's native JDBC based connections (even if you use TNS based connections you will still use JDBC unless you have this checked).
As for other graphical tools for Oracle there are many both free or for a price.
1) In the for price world Toad stands out, i heard of a free option too but I'm not sure of the limitations.
2) For free you can use DBVisualizer which is fairly good (never used it too much thou).
3) Finally there is SQuirreL which is both free and open source but it has fairly basic functionality compared to the two above.
Obviously there are many others, but IMHO few will provide you with the same functions of SQLDeveloper or Toad for Oracle databases

Unable to connect to a remote db using Sql Developer

hi,
I have 2 systems (A and B) both running on RHEL 6. A has Oracle 10G installed while B has Oracle 11G, and on both I have SQL Developer. A and B are cable networked with static IPs as below.
A 192.168.1.1
B 192.168.1.2
I am trying to connect to database on A from SQL Developer on B. On B, I open SQL developer, enter the connection name, username, password, hostname( or IP) of A, port #, and instance name and hit connect. It shows error about network adapter. I cannot connect.
Listners on both system are active, I can ping each system from each other. No issues with /etc/hosts either.
I am not sure then why it does not work. Would like to know if I can / should be able to connect like above ? What else should I look at to fix?
Shashi

Hello Sir,
Can you telnet to the server on 1521? (telnet A 1521)- failed. with no route error
However, I could telnet B from A without any prob. I then came across a workaround at
TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
which suggests to :
Go into the Security Level Configuration on your Linux server. In Other Ports, specifically enter <port>:tcp, (example 1521:tcp.
and it worked :)
I am still not sure, why I had to take the workaround route when there was no difference between 2 systems, in terms of route tables, host file entries, sqlnet.ora,listner.ora, etc . I am glad that the issue is resolved and I am able to connect from SQL Developer on A to db on B and other way round, but the the question still remains... :)

Connecting to Oracle DB on Ubuntu 8.04 using SQL Developer

Hi,
I managed to install Oracle 11g on Ubuntu 8.04 using this guide:
http://www.pythian.com/blogs/968/installing-oracle-11g-on-ubuntu-804-lts-hardy-heron
But I don't remember the Username or SID, that's why I keep on getting ORA-12505 from SQL DEVELOPER
How can I get those missing informations?

But I don't remember the Username or SIDAssuming your DB is up and running, you can find out the SID by :
$ ps -ef | grep smon | grep -v grep
oracle 15298 1 1 10:59 ? 00:00:00 ora_smon_db11
$ here db11 is the SID.
About username, you can create one. Use Sql*Plus and OS authentication :
$ export ORACLE_SID=<your SID>
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> CREATE USER

Create statspack report using sql*developer

Hello,
While connecting with PERFSTAT user I can not create statspack report using SQL*Developer:
@?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
Error starting at line 1 in command:
@?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
Error report:
Unable to open file: "?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt.sql"
Actually, my problem or question is that how can PERFSTAT user can generate statspack reports from a Client side. What is the other way a non-dba can see the snapshots histroy and generate report (by using perfstat user ) while joing tables or using views?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards

Hi,
for awr reports @?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt (you need EE+Diagnostic Pack) there is a solution.
Grant execute dbms_workload_repository to <user>;
Grant select_catalog_role to <user>;
get all SNAP_IDs
SELECT   TO_CHAR(s.startup_time,'YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS') INSTART_FMT,
         di.instance_name INST_NAME,
         di.db_name DB_NAME,
         s.snap_id SNAP_ID,
         TO_CHAR(s.end_interval_time,'YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS') SNAPDAT,
         s.snap_level LVL
FROM    dba_hist_snapshot s,
         dba_hist_database_instance di
WHERE   di.dbid = s.dbid
         AND di.instance_number = s.instance_number
         AND Di.Startup_Time = S.Startup_Time
ORDER BY snap_id desc;
Select * From Table(Sys.Dbms_Workload_Repository.Awr_Report_Html(DBID, 1, BEGIN_SNAP_ID, END_SNAP_ID));
For statspack i don't know a solutuion. I think the best idea is, create a job to make the statspack report on the server side and access it via external tables or mail them forward to you.
Best regards

SQL Developer and Blocking View of Other Users' Objects

I am using SQL Developer in a classroom environment. My student users can “see” Other Users objects. They cannot modify, but none the less can see the structure and data.
I only want the users to be able to see their own objects. Is there a privilege that needs to be revoked? (In using SQL Plus command line, this was not a problem.)
Thanks.
-Karen

Karen,
From sysdba account (sys/system). Run following and verify for that particular user grant is revoked. May be exit from sql developer and log back in or refresh view.
YOu can also potenially revoke all the privs from all non admin uses i.e.r even connect/resource roles and grant them back.
revoke select any table from yourschemaname;
revoke connect from schemaname;
revoke create session from schemaname;
revoke resource from schemaname;
Then just grant privs as need basis
grant connect to schemanme;
grant resource to schemaname;
grant create session to schemaname;
..Regards
