SQL Developer with SVN

user9082530Jun 24 2011 — edited Jun 19 2012
Hello was using my SQL Developer yesterday, when i experienced a power outage. After rebooting my laptop and upon starting SQL Developer version 2.1.1.64.45, i keep getting an error right on start up of the SQL Developer of:
java.lang.NullPointerException

So i tried installing version 3.0.04.34, accepting preferences from the older version, but same issue. i can compile my packages, access tables etc. but cannot use SVN to check in and out my code. Can anyone help me out on this issue please?

My environment is: Oracle 10.2.0.4.0, Windows XP-SP3

Many Thanks. Rob.

Did you install 3.0.04 in a fresh directory?

I just went through the same thing...and I too needed to use subversion...

I downloaded the jdk from oracle and used the 'no-jdk' 3.1 version of sql developer ( i also had a 2.x version of sql developer that worked fine with subversion )...at first no joy

got the oracle.jdevimpl.vcs.svn.SVNProfile.canActivate(SVNProfile.java:162) error...every time

When I compared the preferences.xml file from

C:\Documents and Settings\<me>\Application Data\SQL Developer, I could see several directories reflecting the sql developer installations I had

to my 2.x installation ...

C:\Documents and Settings\<me>\Application Data\SQL Developer\system2.1.1.64.45

I found the folder o.jdeveloper.subversion.11.1.1.2.36.55.30

In there...I found preferences.xml...

In my
C:\Documents and Settings\<me>\Application Data\SQL Developer\system3.1.07.42 installation which at first did not work...

I found the
o.jdeveloper.subversion.11.1.1.4.37.59.48 folder...which also contained a preferences.xml file...however it was radically shorter and different than the 2.x version...


Copying the 2.x version to the 3.1 installation folder ( o.jdeveloper.subversion.11.1.1.4.37.59.48 )...and restarting sql developer did the trick...my subversion plug in now appears...


I have an SR opened with oracle to find out why the file got mangled in the first place...

Thanks
