Main page (https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/sql-developer/index.html) lists v22.2, but the download page (https://www.oracle.com/tools/downloads/sqldev-downloads.html) only shows v21.4.3?
Should be out soon.
It's there now. Thanks!
Is JDK 8 or 11 included?
11, fixing the typo now
Downloaded SQL Developer 22.2 with JDK 11 Copied my preferences over from the previous installation (21.4.3.063). When I try to connect to a database from the connection tree, I get this error. Any ideas?
What type of connection is it? I'm running the exact same thing you are, 64-bit Windows w/Java 11 included, and on an upgrade can connect just fine. Maybe, try extracting the zip again using native Windows file explorer to a net-new directory, and try connecting from that location?
It is a basic connection. I specify the host, port and service name. I right clicked on the connection name -> properties -> Test I extracted to a new location and I also downloaded the "No Java" version. I get the same error on both attempts.
Do you have an oracle client defined in the Advanced Preferences, or are you using a TNS connection type or do you have 'OCI' checked on your advanced connection properties?
I am using a basic connection type. I have a TNSNAMES file but I don't use it. I have "OCI/Thick driver" checked. We use Radius authentication for our DB logins and I remember it wasn't working without this box checked.
That's probably it, get a newer client and try that, a 19c or 21c client.
Same issue for me - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdbc/datasource/impl/OracleDataSource
I'm using 19c Client with "OCI/Thick driver" checked in SQLDeveloper 22.2 but still facing this issue.
