Oracle SQL Developer: Enter the full pathname for java.exe
I encountered the following message repeatedly when trying to start SQL Developer from my installation of Oracle Database 11g Enterprise: Enter the full pathname for java.exe.
No matter how many times I browsed to the correct path, I kept being presented with the exact same dialog box. This was in Windows 7, and the solution was to right-click on the SQL Developer icon and select "Run as administrator". I then used this path: C:\app\shellperson\product\11.1.0\db_1\jdk\jre\bin\java.exe

I find that after doing this “as administrator” I need to continue accessing SQL Devloper “as administrator” or it freezes. Did you encounter this as well? Thanks!

Yes, I have encountered the same behaviour, and haven’t figured out a workaround yet.

Thanks A Million. I am so excited. This problem almost drove me crazy. I downloaded all the JDK’s and SDK’s. All to no avail.
Now, I tried your suggestion and it worked PERFECTLY well. Thank you Again and Again.
