All,

I’ve had ME setup to connect to several Oracle instances for a while now, but all of a sudden I can’t connect to any of them, even if I drop and recreate the connection. Any ideas? The stack trace I’m getting looks like this:

!ENTRY com.genuitec.eclipse.sqlexplorer 4 4 2007-02-25 11:29:48.358

jcastell ,

This NPE is thrown when connection is not success.
Have you some error dialog and if yes what is message ?
I suppose that your URL (or jdbc driver or class) is not correct – it is maybe some typing error.

Regards,

Peco,

I get a dialog that says

Error while trying to login to database:
null

I’ve double checked all of the connection strings, and they’re good. Seems that I can’t connect to ANY databases, though.

jc,

It is strange.Do you checked your jdbc jar ?
Could you please send your URL and jdbc class name ?

Thanks,
