Client Tools :: How To Disable Shortcut Or Change Key Mapping
Feb 18, 2008
I have a problem with getting '|' sign in TOAD Editor. It is default for Croatian keyboard layout that I get '|' sign when I press Alt_gr+W key combination.
But in Toad, when I press Alt_gr+W combination Watches dialog is opened.I want to get '|' sign in Toad Editor when I press Alt_gr+W.
Is there a shortcut to get the Select Connection Dialog box in SQL Developer?
Every time I need to execute a Query I have to use the mouse to change the Connection, if there is any Shortcut then that would be easier for me to wotk with.
The way to create a short cut on desktop to have an sql*plus (command line).
i.e. I want to have an short cut on desktop when I click that short cut that would connect me to a specific database with a username and password (which i supply while creating the shortcut-I would provide the database name, username and password)
how to disable and enable all constraints pertaining to one table at once. I want to disable them at once and also enable them at once. I make use of TOAD.
I wrote an sql script (spooler) which runs a select query and produces results into a file.
I want to have the filename with the year attached. Can i pass a parameter when i run the script from SQL*PLUS
@'B: Year Of FinancingPLSQLspoolersSpooler_File_Creation' 01/01/2010 2010;
the first parameter 01/01/2010 is passed to the select query and taht works fine.
Since the output file contains 2010 data, I want the spooled file to mention in its name the 2010, so User's can know the file contains 2010 data in it.
So i wrote the statement within the spooler script
SPOOL X:HARSOrganizationsFinancialDataFor&2.txt
&2 should take 2010 has its value and produce the file FinancialDataFor2010.txt
how to use Substitution variables to produce the Filename i want.
1) A reverse engineering tool that I can point to an Oracle schema and get a "baseline" script to re-create that schema from scratch, with decently formatted DDL files (1 per object) neatly organized in a directory tree (by object type) and called in the correct order. Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to populate (insert) those tables as part of the script.
2) a diff tool that I can point to a pair of Oracle instances (source and target) containing a given schema and get a "delta" script to alter the target schema so that it becomes identical to the source schema. If data loss occurs on the target instance (i.e. drop a column) I would like to find a warning comment inserted in the script (e.g. "-- Attention: data migration DML needed here?"). Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to update (delete, update and insert) the data in the target tables to become identical to the contents in the source tables *without* deleting and re-inserting all rows (or dropping, recreating and repopulating the table).
3) I would like the above two tools (that, as you will have recognized, are basic to putting your database design under version control) to be open-source, with a command-line interface and a vibrant community backing them.
The problem is that this connection errors when I try to connect using my SQuirreL client. My developers want to connecting using the SID or the SERVICE_NAME and by using the "New Method" syntax, not the "Old Method" syntax. According to the documentation the "New Method" syntax works with the SERVICE_NAME or the SID. The "Old Method" only works with the SID.
# Host name is vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com # SID is sting2 # SERVICE_NAME is sting2.na.sas.com
PROBLEM using SID errors ==> jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521/sting2 THIS WORKS using SERVICE_NAME ==> jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521/sting2.na.sas.com
I am using SQuirreL Client version 3.4.0
# Here is the tnsnames.ora entry on the server. STING2 = (DESCRIPTION =
[code]...
# In this documentation it says, "On new syntax SERVICE may be a oracle service name or a SID."You can find this on the orafax wiki under JDBC#Thin_driver.
# I was able to connect with the "old method" using the SID only, SERVICE_NAME errors jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521:sting2.na.sas.com (SQuirreL client error, "Unexpected Error occurred attempting to open an SQL connection.") jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521:sting2 (this works)
# "New Method" jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521/sting2.na.sas.com (this works) jdbc:oracle:thin:@vmwwin7634.na.SAS.com:1521/sting2 (this errors) (SQuirreL client error, "Unexpected Error occurred attempting to open an SQL connection.")
I have new virtual UNIX machine and I installed oracle client on /usr/lib/oracle. Also I have a oracle database and I am able to connect to this database from my desktop sql developer.
So now I am trying to connect from new UNIX machine. Where I created tnsnames.ora file under /usr/lib/oracle/network/admin and before connecting did export the following
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist. Not sure what I missed here. using same tns file I am able to connect from sql developer on windows.
I need to install Oracle client to get latest sql plus working on client pc as the problem is, i am not able to find out where i can download this , i just need the sql plus as i am not able use many commands because when i installed oracle forms 6i client tool , sql plus 8.0 got installed.
I want to use BR*Tools to administer an Oracle database. I have installed BrGUI local, set the JAVA Home variable and edited the brgui.properties file accordingly.I am able to login, but the menues are mising. The login screen is incomplete.
I usually work in oracle using the different editors like toad, plsql developer etc. I felt command line is good utility because of various supporting points. I am not sure what kind of command line tools is available/used. I am using pretty straight command line (run->cmd, then enter username and password).
The best command line tools available. What is generally used command line tools.

I install the ODBC Driver Manager, Basic Instant Client, ODBC Instant Client packages (libsqora.so, odbc_update_ini.sh).
The error:

I have an Oracle server on CentOS 5.4, I can visit isqlplus on server, but I can't visit isqlplus on a windows client. ping works between server and client. I remember client doesn't need to install software via isqlplus, but I am not pretty sure.
Can I have the list of Tools (By Oracle / Third party) to change the look and feel of Oracle Forms?
The tool should be capable of converting traditional look and feel of my existing forms to a new web based look and feel, without having any physical design changes to my existing form modules.
I'm not able to run SQL *Plus on my machine. It is giving me below error.
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus Message file sp1<lang>.msb not found SP2-0750: You may need to set ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software directory
Setting of PATH environment variable is as below. If I remove below highlighted part I'm able to run SQL * Plus. I cannot remove this because it is required to run my application.
