OS hangs up when using PL/SQL Developer in "single session" mode

[Olivier Mungo]

Hello,

Does anybody experienced the same side effect ?

When setting PL/SQL Developer in "single session" mode, my OS hangs up. For example, when trying to launch an Explorer window, the window appears without any content until I close PL/SQL Developer.

And altough the connection to the database succeeded, when trying to query a table, I receive an error message "Not connected to Oracle". Even if I try to connect again, I get the same result.

Thanks,
Olivier Mungo

Are you using version 6.0.5? If not, please upgrade. If so, can you go to Tools > Preferences > Updates & News and set both interval options to "Never"?

I receive an error message "Not connected to Oracle"

The message "not connected to oracle" usually means that the Oracle Server process for the current session has crashed. Can you check if a user trace dump file exist on the database server that corresponds to this error? Usually you will see an ORA-00600 error here, with some error codes that may help us find the cause of the problem. If it does, can you send it to me?

Thanks for answering.

I'm using version 6.0.5.931.

I don't have access to the Oracle server log files because all our servers are hosted and managed in a Data Center in Luxemburg. I can try to ask for it but if you have another solution...

I noticed that PL/SQL Developer can show informations about the environment (menu Help -> Infos support). Will that help ?

I think we will need it.
