Today at the Oracle Fusion Middleware Summer Camp in Lisboa I experienced some SIGSEGV JVM crashes. It happened when trying to use JDeveloper 12.1.3 under MacOS with the SOA Suite Development installer – right after the installation when starting up the server from within JDeveloper. (Most of the experienced SOA Suite developers went the beaten path using Windows).
My installation used a fairly recent JDK 1.7_45, but SOA Suite 12c is supported on MAC OS only for a single user development installation starting with JDK 1.7_51.
Upgrading to JDK 1.7_65 and recreating the JDeveloper default domain fixed the issue.
Give it a try! It’s the best time to explore the brand new SOA Suite 12c features – now even natively on a MAC.
Oracle WebLogic Server 12c Book
Oracle Middleware and Cloud Computing Book
Even with 1.7.0_67 , my jdeveloper crashes all the time on my mac .. never had any problems with eclipse etc ..
jdeveloper now seems to crash on red hat 7.0 version too .. am not sure if JDeveloper has been tested properly in all other platforms .. this is jdeveloper on OSB 12c.
Thoughts please ?
Cheers

I installed Oracle SOA Suite 12c (12.2.x) on Mac OS X El Capitan, Windows 10, Oracle Enterprise Linux 7.1, openSUSE Leap 42.1 and on all those platforms it is extremely unstable. I use JDK1.8.0_66 (12.2 now uses JDK8) and whenever I start building XQuery transforms, the IDE starts to run into problems. As I continue I start getting errors stating that the “The Deployment Wizard could not be constructed”. I have only doen OSB development work on it when I get these problems
I have never had any issues with OSB work in the Eclipse environment.
Hi Skillpad69,
I am working more extensively with OSB 12.2.1 these days and reported some bugs already.
Also I find JDeveloper 12.2.1 not too stable when used with OSB (to put it nicely).
The best I can recommend is file bug reports with Oracle so that they become aware of it. Even more so if it something reproducible related to JDev. I will continue to post issues that we find in projects here on my blog – you are always welcome to comment! It’s just sometimes I am busy with completely different things, so it might take a while until I can reply like here with your comment.
keep posting!
kind regards,
Frank
