When we first make a connection, we run a big PL/SQL block that checks permissions and other info about your database so we can write appropriate queries for the duration of your Toad session. That PL/SQL block is having a "ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel" on your VPN connection, which is leading to the problems later. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what aspect of your VPN is causing this....

RE: Unable to see instant client and connect in TOAD
After some more digging, I found that I was missing the system Variable TNS_ADMIN and have now set that to the path of my instant client.
However, I am still not able to connect - the message is sqlnet.ora file could not be located. Why is it looking for a .ora file if I am connecting with Isntant Client? We have a cloud database....

RE: Unable to see instant client and connect in TOAD
I would disregard the "does not exist" and the message that sqlnet.ora could not be located for now. Looking at the code for Toad's connection error advice it could use a little tweaking when you're using direct connect like that.
The ORA-12170 error is what I would focus on. Did you try tnsping? It seems that there is a problem getting to the database. Can you connect with SQL*Plus?

Thank you Michael, we've just figured out that it's a firewall issue. I couldn't connect to our database via SQL Developer either.

RE: Strip HTML code from output
How are you creating the output? Is it from a query? From an export off the data grid?

RE: Can I schedule a Health Check Report in TOAD
You can use Toad's Automation Designer to do it. The Automation Designer comes with pre-defined Toad tasks that you can string together to perform useful chunks of work at the push of a button, or schedule to happen on your workstation.
See snapcap below, and check out one of the videos on automating the HealthCheck here.

RE: Scrollbar missing in Object browser
The snap cap you provide looks like an older version of our Schema Compare facility.
Can you upgrade to the latest version of Toad? We've made some changes in the Compare interface, and I'm almost positive you won't see the scrollbar issue.

RE: Scrollbar missing in Object browser
Looks like what you are seeing is a bug with DPI > 96. Should be fixed in the current version. And if you can't get the current version you can get past it by going back to 96 DPI.
In WIndows 7, this is Desktop -> Rt Click -> Screen Resolution -> Make text and other items larger or smaller. 100% and it will look normal.

Scrollbar missing in Object browser
Hi,
I am not seeing the scrollbar while trying to select 'Object Types to Compare' in Database>>Compare>>Schemas>> (after logging in) Options>>Object Types to Compare.
I just need to select the Tables, Sequences, Triggers and Indexes. While some of these objects are shown, the remaining are at the bottom of the displayed window and there is no scrollbar to see and select the other Object types.
How do I resolve it?

RE: Toad for Oracle 12.12 Always on Top
I suspect this may be due to something in your Windows configuration. There is no option in Toad's option base that controls this behavior, and I just looked at the content of a number of our .ini type files and didn't see a control parm in any of them.
Does the entire Toad (parent) window always stay on top of other Win apps, or is it only certain panels (within Toad itself) that always stay on top?

Toad for Oracle 12.12 Always on Top
Why is Toad for Oracle window always on top of my other windows? It is always covering up my other windows. I have to minimize it so I can see what's hiding underneath. It didn't work this way until the update. BTW: I have three monitors.

RE: "Copy data to another schema" on Toad 12.6.0.53 running slow (row-by-row inserts)... Note: tables do NOT have CLOB/LOB columns
Yes, the timestamps are making it go slow. It was a bug in that version. It was fixed serveral versions ago. I can find out exactly which version if you need me to, but I can tell you that's fixed in the current version.

"Copy data to another schema" on Toad 12.6.0.53 running slow (row-by-row inserts)... Note: tables do NOT have CLOB/LOB columns
Hello,
Any help would be much appreciated!! In prior versions of TOAD (I think I was using v10 maybe?), I saw good performance when using the "Copy data to another schema" feature... like 5000-10,000 rows/second. On the current version we are using (12.6.0.53), I just tried to copy data for the same table that had good performance in the past, and I'm seeing only a few rows per second and can tell it must be doing row-by-row inserts.
I dug into it and tried another table, to see if it was an issue with specific datatypes, and indeed it seems to be. The second table gave fast performance. Below are details. Please advise with any help. My only guess is that in the new version, perhaps it's reverting to row-by-row inserts if the table has any TIMESTAMP columns? Similar to CLOB/LOB.
Here's the table that runs SLOW:

Which VCS Provider option to select for GIT hosted on Team Foundation Server?
I'm trying to set up TOAD to use GIT hosted by Team Foundation Server as the VCS. In Team Coding Configuration, which do I pick from the VCS dropdown box, Team Foundation Server or GIT?
Thanks

RE: Toad for Oracle 12.12 Always on Top
Hi, I have 12.12 and I also have similar issue, it doesn't happen with any other application.
Example: if I have TOAD open and then I click SQL*Plus, I have to minimize to see SQL Plus.

RE: Toad for Oracle 12.12 Always on Top
Certainly unusual, to say the least. Have either of you opened a Support call for assistance on this?
Some of our Engineers may have seen this, but if not, we need to document and track the fix.

No mapping for the Unicode character exists in the target multi-byte code page.
Every time I try to connect to a schema or close a connection, I will get this error message popup "No mapping for the Unicode character exists in the target multi-byte code page."
And when I don't receive this error message, my Toad becomes not responsive. The error message is the blocker, I can't make connection or disconnection without clicking on the error message.
My machine is Windows 10 version 1607 build 14393.2068

RE: Which VCS Provider option to select for GIT hosted on Team Foundation Server?
Hi Douglas,
Toad for Oracle does work with Git, regardless of whether it's hosted by GitHub or Team Foundation Server. For your use, you would need to select the "Git" provider and have a local Git client installed; however, there are a few limitations that you should be aware of:
1. All push and pull requests for Git need to be done manually using your Git client.
You can work around this issue by setting up External commands within Toad to transfer changes between your local Git repository and the server's Git repository. Matthew Phan wrote a blog article here that may help you in creating that:
2. You won't be able to use Work Item tracking through Toad.
Toad only supports tracking work items using the Team Foundation Server's built-in version control platform. We don't have any way of accessing work items through the Git client.
3. You will need to work directly in the master trunk.
Toad's Team Coding does not support branching and merging in the VCS provider since databases themselves don't support it. For example, let's say you and your coworker each created your own branches off the master trunk in the VCS to create a new feature. In order to support each of your features, you both needed to change some database objects slightly. While each of your changes would be isolated in your own branch in the VCS, those changes could be applied to the same database objects in the database. If one of those objects happened to be shared, whoever would change the object second would overwrite the changes of the first and break his/her feature.
If you need to have work item tracking, and would prefer no additional manual push/pull steps, I'd recommend using Team Foundation Server's built-in version control for your database projects. You can still use their Git support for source code if you desire and they should be able to be managed easily on the same TFS server.
