Can anyone help? Installed like here:

How to install SQL Developer on Ubuntu 14.04?

If I run:

sudo sqldeveloper

it starts and runs properly but if I run:

sqldeveloper

It wont start with any other error shown.

Are there missing rights for Sqldeveloper or Java. Where and how do I set them.

Any help appreciated, I am a Ubuntu noob.

Where do I find error logs?

Thank you...

Likely what happened is you ran sqldeveloper one time using sudo, which caused the configuration directory $HOME/.sqldeveloper to get owned by root. If so, you should be able to fix it by re-taking ownership of the directory, i.e.

sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.sqldeveloper

or by simply deleting the directory

rm -rf ~/.sqldeveloper

If we need to run sqldeveloper without sudo we need to run command in terminal

sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.sqldeveloper
