@AmpliFiHome I have been dealing with issues with your Alien mesh system for months with no resolution. Request 324258. Please, Amplifi Twitter gods, help me get this escalated if you can
@cl@benrebooted It is. As a DBA who uses their Standard Edition, it’s more like SQL Server express without a size limit, but with a lot of licensing gotchas and red tape
@cl@benrebooted The worst part is that they don’t even tell you which Views trigger a license. You have to figure that out largely for yourself. There are a few tricks, but most of it is handshakes and contracts.
@cl@benrebooted Even worse than it sounds. They license by features. Many of those features use Views like DMVs in SQL Server. If you query a history view, for example, the feature that uses the history view will show “used”. Therefore you just used a licensed feature! Oracle gots to go! Lol
@thatjeffsmith less ramble: 1. worked for a minute after copied older json file over to new env 2. deleted a bunch of conns trying to help fight corruption 3. happened again 4. deleted json file, still happens. 5. delete .sqldeveloper and relaunch app - everything works, must be something else
@thatjeffsmith ok so...
I deleted the entire .sqldeveloper folder and relaunched the application. All worked well. I added back an older connections.json I had from the prior version folder. Made A LOT of deletions to it. Now I have the same behavior. I've deleted the json file, but still this
@thatjeffsmith makes sense. I may export what I need and reinstall. I can navigate the filesystem without an issue, open SQL files, save them, etc. Even if I blow all of those connections.json files away I have the same prob ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@thatjeffsmith I think this is an OSX or java problem. I ended up granting Full Disk Access to java/sqldev and that fixed the issue....until 2am on Saturday when I got a ring to the on-call rotation. Now i have the same issue.Even deleted the entire system dir and let it rebuild - still no dice
