Is verson 7.1.0.1337 compatible with Windows 7 64bit?

I've looked through the posts with 64bit installations and have tried the 32 bit client, connecting successfuly with SQLPLUS SQL*Plus: Release 11.1.0.7.0.

When launched as administrator the PL/SQL Developer Window shows:
Reading preferences
Reading keywords
Logging on... connected
then the error is thrown: PL/SQL Developer has stopped working. A problem caused athe program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. [Debug] [Close program]

If I cancel the login a the login prompt PL/SQL Developer runs. The PL/SQL support information follows.

Any suggestions?

Same issue here - upgrading business PCs to Windows 7 64 bit but using Version 9.0.5.1648

I see that you are using an Instant Client. Did you try SQL*Plus from the same Instant Client directory?

 

[bhallinan]

Thank you for the quick response.

No and Yes. No, I had used the 64 bit version of SQL*Plus inadvertantly and reported that in my first post. (Good catch!)

Yes, the 32 bit version of SQL*Plus works from the same Instant Client Directory (32 bit). The 32 bit version is SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.2.0 Production.

To obtain some more diagnostic information, can you modify the shortcut and add the DebugSQL parameter? For example:

"C:\Program Files\PLSQL Developer\plsqldev.exe" DebugSQL

Reproduce the problem and send me the debug.txt file that is generated in the PL/SQL Developer directory or in the %APPDATA%\PLSQL Developer directory (e.g. C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\PLSQL Developer).

We have similar problems. Windows 7 64bits running.
PLSQL version are 7.1 (old version, sure !).
Client Oracle 11g.
Problem : PLSQL always CRASHES at startup, before login.
On some PC, running in "compatibility XP SP3" is ok.
On others, this solution doesn't works.
HAve you an idea ?
Is the version 9 better compatibility for Win 7 ?
*** NEW !!! ***
I test to install PLSQL in Administrator mode. It seems to be bettere, password is automaticcaly watched when we regitered the licence. And it works correctly. Perhaps some security issues in Win7 ?

With an 11g client there should not be any issue on Windows 7.
