I have SQL Developer version 22.2 installed on my laptop, then I installed the latest version 23.1.1. Both of them are working fine, and I can run both of them simultaneously without any issue. I have also a separate installation for the Data Modeler version 23.1
I restarted my laptop (I didn’t restart it since more than one month!), then I tried to open the SQL Developer (any one of them), but I received the following errors:
Warning – could not install some modules: oracle.ide.file – org.netbeans.InvalidException: Netigso: D:\sqldeveloper-23.1.1\sqldeveloper\ide\extensions\oracle.ide.file.jar: Not found bundle:oracle.ide.file oracle.ide.navigator – org.netbeans.InvalidException: Netigso: D:\sqldeveloper-23.1.1\sqldeveloper\ide\extensions\oracle.ide.navigator.jar: Not found bundle:oracle.ide.navigator oracle.jewt_core – org.netbeans.InvalidException: Netigso: D:\sqldeveloper-23.1.1\sqldeveloper\external\oracle.jewt-core.jar: Not found …. Still, the Data Modeler is working fine, only SQL Developer has this issue.
Some Research: I found the following MOS document, which says that it may be a space issue or corrupted files, and asked to re-install the SQL Developer: SQL Developer Issue Error Warning – Could Not Install Some Modules (Doc ID 2911452.1)
But, I didn’t follow this solution.
Solution:
After some research I found the following workaround, which worked with and fixed the above issue for both versions of SQL Developer:
Open Windows Explorer and navigate to: C:\Users\afattah\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\system23.1.1.345.2114\system_cache\config\Modules or C:\Users\afattah\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\system22.2.0.173.2018\system_cache\config\Modules (depending on the version that you have), and delete the following two files:
This fixed the issue for me, and I was able to launch the SQL Developer successfully.
Note that after deleting the above files, and launching the SQL Developer successfully, a newer version from these files will be created again, and you don’t need to delete them after that. (Looks like these files were corrupted by away or another).
This worked 100%! Saved me a lot of time from other forum suggestions requiring losing all settings and connections.
This worked for me 100%, helping avoid other forum suggestions involving losing settings and connections, and/or reinstalling.
Thanks a lot. That solved my problem too.
