Oracle SQL Developer does not respond when trying to view tables (or offers an Oracle Mac client)

Question

I just get a beach ball all day (he didn't do anything for hours). It does not accept the processor, does not read from the disk, and does not use the network.

I am using Java 1.6 on Mac OS X 10.5.4 . It worked once, now even restarting the computer will not help. The activity monitor says that it is "(not responding)." The only thing I can do is kill -9, which joins.

When I look at the process, I see the following:

    mach_msg_trap        16620
    read        831
    semaphore_wait_trap        831

A valid answer that does not fix this will include the URL for the free Oracle client for Mac.

Edit: @Mark Harrison sadly this happens every time I run it, this is not an old connection. I would like to avoid running windows on my laptop. I give some plugins for my IDE whirlwind, but for me it's still not a solution. @Matthew Schinckel Navicat seems to have only a non-profit Oracle product ... I need a commercially friendly (even if it costs money).

Answer 1

I get the same problem after the active connection has been idle for some time. I solve it by restarting the SQL developer once in a while.

I also have Toad for Oracle running on a vmware XP session and it works great. If you don't mind money, try this.

Use RazorSQL . Do yourself a favor and spend 60 bucks. He will pay for himself in the first hours or two. You can even get 60 days for free.

Answer 7

The latest version of SQL Developer is very good, and I had no problems with it on my Mac Pro. DB Solo 3 is also good.
