I just installed Oracle 11g, and tried to start Oracle SQL developer so as to start writing queries.

It is asking me:

Enter the full pathname for the jav         


        

Answer 1

Hhere is what what I did to fix it:

Prerequisite

• Make sure JDK is installed (Not JRE).
• Make sure Oracle is installed

After

1. Open the file ..\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldevloper.conf and add the following line to set jdk path:

   SetJavaHome C:\Program Files\Oracle\11g\product\11.1.0\client_1\jdk

   If it dont allow you to save the file, copy whole sqldeveloper folder to a different location where you have write access to modify this file.

2. Run sqldeveloper.exe (from the new place if you moved the folder out from oracle folders) as administrator and enter the jdk path that comes with your oracle installation: e.g. C:\Program Files\Oracle\11g\product\11.1.0\client_1\jdk\bin
