I'm running CentOS 5.5 x64
I went to the Oracle site
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/sql/index.html
I downloaded jdk (Java Development Kit)
jdk-6u21-linux-x64-rpm.bin
Phil Schaffner's tips and tricks were helpful but I didn't follow them exactly
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/PluginsFor64BitFirefox
sh ./jdk-6u21-linux-x64-rpm.bin
alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jre1.6.0_13/bin/java 2
alternatives --config java
I am completely unfamiliar with the alternatives command
this step comes back with a prompt to choose a java alternative, I choose
/usr/java/jre1.6.0_13/bin/java
the first time I started sqldeveloper I got this message:
Type the full pathname of a J2SE installation (or Ctrl-C to quit), the path will be stored in ~/.sqldeveloper/jdk
I entered:
/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21
and it works!
the pop-up New / Select Database Connection was a little confusing
Connection Name is just an arbitary name that you assign, I had to type set Connection Type to TNS and set the Network Alias to the hostname in the TNS file

It looks as if something is [i]NotQuiteRight[/i] (tm). ;-)
As you say that you are [i]completely unfamiliar with the alternatives command[/i], I would suggest a read of the manual page before progressing.
O.k. so having read that manual page, do you see how your [i]alternatives --install[/i] command line, above, looks incorrect?
Assuming that the [i]jdk-6u21-linux-x64-rpm.bin[/i] script provides a directory structure under the [b]/usr/java/[/b] directory that is [b]not[/b] [i]/usr/java/jre1.6.0_13/[/i], you should specify the correct path to the just installed [i]java[/i] command. Now, when you run the [i]alternates --config java[/i] command line, you should be able to select the [i]java[/i] from the [i]jdk-6u21[/i] package that has recently been installed. :-)

Re: install sql developer
I believe that [b]Phil[/b] will be back tomorrow (Tue 27 July, 2010), so I'll set a flag to suggest that he has a look at this thread.

Re: install sql developer
I took my example from
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/PluginsFor64BitFirefox
anyways sql developer works but maybe that has adversely affected Evolution

Re: install sql developer
printing in Evolution works
I changed the print range to all and now printing works
sqldeveloper works!
I think I don't have a problem!
