Could you please try to backup %appdata%\quest software\sql navigator 6.7 and then delete this folder? restart sqlnav and whether you still have problem.
Bruce… Have downloaded and installed but when I run, it wont connect to any database as gives “ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified”
Works fine on my 6.7 install and settings appear to all be the same
Thanks for trying the new beta and sorry to hear you have problem with it.
How many Oracle Clients/Homes do you have in this environment? Did you try to select/switch Oracle client in sqlnav Logon window? And last thing, could you use 6.7 to log in to one of your DBs and then create a support bundle from Help -> Create Support Bundle Files? Please email me the support bundle file to Vincent.Liu@quest.com.
We could not find out any possible cause of TNS error from the support bundle. Can you please confirm that you installed both 6.7 and 7.0 in this machine? In 7.0, are you using TNS or LDAP tab in connect in sqlnav Logon window? If you are using TNS connection and you should have the details(host, port, service_name etc…) of the database connection, could you use the details to make a Direct connection in sqlnav logon window?
I hope direct connection will work for you temporarily before we figure out the initial issues you have. Please let us know how it goes.
Thanks for sending Vincent the info. We are still looking into the connection issues with v7.0 you had.
With the hang issue in v6.7, could you please rename the registry folder SQL Navigator 6.7.0 under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Quest Software, ie. we will start with a fresh/default layout. I saw that you have auto hide ON for dockable windows layout.
I suspect there might be some corruption with dexexpress layout settings in your 6.7 registry.
If you still get the hang with a clean registry, please try to turn OFF the saving sql to history option in the preference window as attached image.
