Thanks dude. you’ve made my day.. I was having the same error with my mac.
i have modified my sqldeveloper.sh in /Applications/SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS to include TNS_ADMIN i previously defined in my .bash_profile.

Thanks again.

This is an example of a truly bizarre error message. I had a file called tnsnames.old in the folder that was pointed to by the Tnsnames directory variable in tools/preferences/databases/advanced .When I removed that the error went away. So even though it appears that the problem is with a java path value, that is just to throw you off the scent!

Specify the TNS entry folder under the Tools–>Preferences–>Database–>Advanced tab and also add the jdbc driver path under the Tools–>Preferences–>Third Party Jdbc Driver. That all works fine to me.

Cheers,

I was facing the same problem with ocijdbc11. Tried many things with Environment Variables and Registry with no effect. Then started using version 3.1, could use it without any problem. Now I have both version 2.1 that is having problem and not usable and also version 3.1 that is working perfectly.

Diya,

what version of SQLDeveloper are you using and which OS ?
Also, what environment variables do you have set ?
