Under Options, Code Analysis, General I have "Top 20" in the Default Rule Set, I have never changed this from previous versions. In 12.12 while in the Editor it would mark unused variables in a program identified by Rule ID 6405, "Avoid defining variables that are not referenced inside the program.'
This is an informational message I found to be very useful. This is not working for me in version 13.0.0.80.
I looked move closely at the objects Toad is generating and it looks like the table grants might be part of this. The process creates a stand alone file for each grant and for one schema that count was over 25,000 grant objects, it's a very old database and stuff like that accumulates over time. Seems to work fine when I remove the table grants.
My manager was not comfortable sending you a create script for the schema, so that will not be an option. Sorry I know that would help with this but security first.
Toad is running on my work PC, Windows 7, quad-core cpu, plenty of ram, etc. Also the Resource Monitor does not show any activity for Toad when it 'hangs'? I also checked for activity in the source database and nothing happening there either.
On a side note I am not getting any emails from this thread, I checked my email address and it looked correct, could be a corporate spam filter on my side but might be related to your things where you saw my response before it was posted to the forum?
Are you able to use Toad to connect to other databases, from the same pc as this failed attempt?
It appears that you are missing an oracle client install on the pc you are running Toad on.
Even if your database is remote, in the cloud, or on the same pc, you still need a client installed.

Norm, Thank you for the response, What version of Oracle client do i have to prefer?
Thanks,

Hi, I am running version 13.0.0.80 of Toad for Oracle and seem to experience memory leaks issues. AFAIK, this seems to be a product issue as far back as versions 11.8, 12.8, 12.10 of TFO. My solution has been to periodically (every 2 - 3 days) close out all windows and restart Toad for Oracle application. Usually memory usage is around 75-80% but I don't know if this is coincidental or not.
Just to help with trouble shooting I was creating this discussion since I hadn't seen anyone with v13 indicating this type of issue in the forum. My machine is Windows 7 Enterprise laptop and at a future date will be upgrading to Windows 10. Perhaps new machine with more memory will no longer have this specific issue.
Thanks for listening,
GL
I had Toad for Oracle 12.5.1.1 in my machine. After reboot it was not launching. Software support uninstalled 12.5.1.1 and installed 13.0.0.80. I have the same issue of stuck with Setting global options and application is not launching. I tried with run as administrator and did not work. We did several reboot of my machine.
Please note that all other software are working fine. I have Toad for DB2 6.1 and its working fine.
Thanks in advance for any ideas to get this issue resolved.
As you are using 11.2.0.4, then I would use that client, or a 12c client. The latter will be supported for longer than the former I suspect.
Good luck.
This issue is fixed. I replaced toad and Oracle Instant client with 32 bit.
Thanks,
RK
Hi John D!
In Toad 13, no, but in the beta this behaves better. In the beta...
If only one schema is being extracted, the SCHEMA@DB folder is NOT is automatically appended to the "Top level directory". We'll put the directories for each object type directly under whatever object type you specify.
If multiple schemas are being extracted, and all schemas are in the same DB, we'll add a <schema> subfolder, and then put the object type folders under that.
If multiple schemas are being extracted, and schemas are in different DBs, we'll add a <schema@db> subfolder, and then put the object type folders under that.
And if you want it to add SCHEMA or SCHEMA@DB subfolders when it might not normally do that, you can add either <SCHEMA> or <SCHEMA@DB> to the path and Toad will swap that out. (You can rt-click in the edit box to that to the path).
- John D.
Is there an option to control the name of the directory where Toad puts the schema objects when using the Generate Schema Scripts from the Database -> Export function?
In version 12.12 the schema directory was created with only the schema name, so the objects for the SCOTT schema would be created in something like C:\TEMP\ORCL1\SCOTT. In 13.0 that behavior has changed and the database name is appended to the schema name, looks something like C:\TEMP\ORCL1\SCOTT@ORCL1.
Is there anyway to tell Toad for Oracle to not add the @ORCL1 after the schema name?
Thanks and have a great weekend...
Rule 6405 still exists in the Top 20 set of Code Analysis rules, even in Toad/Oracle 13.0. To confirm what's in your Top 20 Rule Set...
1. Database->Diagnose->Code Analysis to get into the Code Analysis window
2. Click on the Edit Rule Sets tool bar button to bring up the list of Rule Sets
3. Verify that rule # 6045 is in the list.
Rule Sets out of the box are read-only, but you can clone an existing one, or create custom rule sets of your own.
I would talk with Quest Software Support, if you haven't already.
However, a work-around might be to copy the Workspaces.dat file and see if you can port it over manually. You can find teh Workspaces.dat file in the User Files subdirectory under Toad's AppData/Roaming directory, or an easier way is to utilize Toad's Jump Search field to find it. See snapcap below.
Hi
I just installed Toad for Oracle 13.0. Is it possible to import my workspaces from 12.12.
The "Copy User settings..." doesn't work for workspaces

I have installed TOAD 13 in an attempt to resolve the problem, but it did not.

Hello Russ,
Please try the following and see if it resolves your issue. Doing this will reset your settings and remove your saved connections, but we can get those back, if needed, as long as they are not what was causing the problem.
1) Launch Toad.
2) Select Utilities | Copy User Settings.
3) Select the option to reset to a clean set of User Files.
4) Click OK and see if issue occurs when Toad is restarted.
Thanks,
Chad
These steps did not correct the problem.
Cheers,
Russ
Hello,
Make sure that the default printer you have set is pointing to an accessible printer or linked to 'print to pdf' or 'send to OneNote'. If the default printer is set to a printer that is switched off or unavailable, the issue you described can happen.
Here is a link to a Knowledgebase article that addresses this:
support.quest.com/.../75810
Thank you,
Chad
Can you check Window's Event Viewer and see if anything is logged in there for Toad when this occurs?
Also, send me your Toad.el file, which is in the C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\13.0 folder.
Thanks,
Chad
I have begun getting an error when Launching TOAD for Oracle 12.11 that is causing an application crash and erratic functionality. Late last week, my corporate laptop hung up so that I had to use a hard power reset to get it back up. After this action, TOAD for Oracle began presenting this error. Mysteriously, uninstalling and reinstalling the application does not correct the problem.
This is similar to the issues reported in the following threads:
https://community.toadworld.com/products/toad-for-oracle/f/10/t/30524
https://community.toadworld.com/products/toad-for-oracle/f/10/t/25434
These are a couple years old and for older versions of TOAD. Also, the use cases do not match mine. In those situations, the error was appearing during certain actions while using TOAD. In my case, this occurs when I launch TOAD. Here is a screen capture of the application error:
TOAD does come up behind the error, but when I click OK, it all goes away. If I do not click OK, I can work with TOAD after a fashion, but the functionality is strangely erratic with frequent crashes. One of the main issues is that the settings cannot be saved. Also, the default configuration is messed up visually. When I click OK in the above box, the following EurekaLog screen appears:
Also, the following message appears if I do NOT click OK:
If I click OK in this message box without clicking OK in the error message box, TOAD does work enough to get by, but it has adversely affected the application making it very fragile during operation.
This is not a freeware version of the product but was supplied by my company. I am working on getting the required information to be able to open a support ticket, but in the meantime, I thought I would post the problem here to see of anyone has any ideas. The above-referenced threads did not have any resolution that I could apply.
Cheers,
Russ
