Hey everyone,
First off, thanks for developing this extension, I'm very eager to use it!! I've been patiently waiting for the day I can move my simple tasks to VSCode and out of SQLDeveloper.
I'm unable to use the Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code on Fedora 30 for a connection to an Oracle database on premise. I followed the Quick Start Guide (https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/appdev/dotnet/odtvscodequickstart.html ) and installed .NET 2.2 (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/linux-package-manager/fedora28/runtime-current ). I then restarted my computer.
When trying to connect via TNS, I always get the error:
"Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code: Tnsnames file is not found or there are no entries in it."
I know that the path to my TNS Names is valid as on the same workstation I use this TNS Names file for SQLCL, SQLDeveloper and Node OracleDB (and yes, I updated the path to my TNS in VSCode settings).
When trying to connect manually, I get a more detailed error message:
"Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code: Error connecting to server MY_SERVER_HOST Details: Could not load file or assembly 'System.DirectoryServices.Protocols, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The system cannot find the file specified."
This looks to me like a .NET error? I've never used it and can't find anything immediately useful online.
Any help would be appreciated!
