Need help on format for query output

BeverlyABeeman-OracleMay 17 2013 — edited May 17 2013
I am new to SQL Developer.

When I run a query in the worksheet, sometimes the results are in table format and sometimes they are in text format. I would like to have the output always in table format, as it is easier to save to Excel that way.

Is there a setting for this? Or can someone explain to me what triggers the format to change for some queries?

I am using SQL D 3.1.07 Build MAIN-07.42 and accessing an instance on 11.2.0.2.

Hi Helios,

Thanks for your reply. I couldn't find thread you mentioned. The closest match I could find was -

http://www.myoraclesupports.com/content/how-prevent-secure-password-store-wallet-being-moved-another-host

Tried the suggested stuff here, but the problem still seems to be same. (I added an entry to my windows host file also as suggested here)

Thanks

Aman....
But that wasn't a thread but an article on the support web site. Are you sure you logged in to it and couldn't find the article actually?

Yep tried,

Do you have the link to that post/thread?

Thanks
Sachin
Aman....
Hmm, I have just checked and the document is there. Did you go to https://support.oracle.com (don't use that myoraclesupport website, it's a fake) and searched for it in the Knowledge Base?

Hey Aman....

Thanks. Unfortunately the info at the support site is exactly the same as what was present in the earlier link I mentioned and neither of them worked for my case :(

Still stuck with the issue. Wondering if it is the 11G R2 issues specifically....

Anyone got a clue....

Thanks

This issue didn't get solve and I had no other option but to downgrade the Database from 11G Release 2 to 11G Release 1. Once I put the R1, wallet was working fine.

Hi,
I had the same issue on my Window 7 laptop and saw your thread as I was attempting to troubleshoot it. I figured it out and I'd like to share how. I turned on the Sysinternals tool Process Monitor and tried startup again. After the failure I stopped collecting data in process monitor. I filtered the output to include lines with .sso or .p12 which are the extensions on my two Wallet files. It showed me that the issue was ACCESS DENIED to the NT_AUTHORITY\SYSTEM account when accessing those two files. SYSTEM is the account my local test Oracle instance runs under. I granted the rights to SYSTEM for those two files and now my database is working.

Hi Joe,


How did you grant SYSTEM (db user) the rights for those two files on OS level?

Is this following post may helpful for you?

Thanks a lot.

Though, my wallet is working when I connect via sqlplus.

Where I'm having issues is, I want to use it for DataPump export job ... that is where I got the error:
ORA-12578: TNS:wallet open failed


Any hint on that?

Thanks for your response.
Azar
Can you paste your sqlnet.ora file here?
Texas
Here it is:

WALLET_LOCATION =
(SOURCE =
(METHOD = FILE)(METHOD_DATA =
(DIRECTORY = /oracle/product/11.2.0/ddw7/network/admin)))

SQLNET.WALLET_OVERRIDE = TRUE
SSL_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION = FALSE
SSL_VERSION = 0
Azar
Change TRUE to FALSE and try, Usually this parameter is useful for who want connect particular schema from client machine, you can configure this parameter in client machine and configure which schema you want to connect without schema name and password.

I don't think so If this parameter is enabled in server, you can able to take export or connect other schema in database

SQLNET.WALLET_OVERRIDE = FALSE
Texas
I tried that earlier, it ain't working.


UDE-01017: operation generated ORACLE error 1017
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Texas
Another point, I am using the wallet on the server for export job but all sqlplus connection using it was successfull.
Azar
what is your expdp command?
Texas
expdp /@ddw7 SCHEMAS=SO_DL,SO_IL ESTIMATE_ONLY=y NOLOGFILE=y


but when I do:

sqlplus /@ddw7, it works perfectly without prompting for anything ..
Azar
Not sure ,Without supply username and password datapump is support.
Texas
Thanks for your time though.

Hi,

give the Windows SYSTEM account read permissions to the files ewallet.p12 and cwallet.sso. Expdp and  impdp are working with the SYSTEM account and need to read these files.
