I have problem when run Oracle Sql developer by ./sqldeveloper.sh i'm using ubuntu 16.4 with 64 bit arch so i downlode it from Oracle page as jdk-8u121-linux-x64.tar.gz ,, then i run this command after extract it by ln -sf /opt/java/jdk1.8.0_121 /opt/java/jdk , Also i go to gedit this file like this gedit /root/.sqldeveloper/4.1.5/product.conf and uncomment and add the path SetJavaHome /opt/java/jdk1.8.0_121/

problem when i run ./sqldeveloper.sh

Type the full pathname of a JDK installation (or Ctrl-C to quit), the path will be stored in /root/.sqldeveloper/4.1.5/product.conf

Answer 1

Make sure you have enough space and no errors when extracting jdk-8u121-linux-x64.tar.gz . I had the same error but did notice I was running out of space, so the JDK installation was incomplete
