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.

The error came in Windows 7, and the following steps resolved the issue:-

Right-click on the SQL Developer icon and select “Run as administrator”.
I then used this path: C:appproduct11.2.0client_1jdkbinjava.exe
Hit enter and Bingo.!!!

It works only if Java executable file is pre-installed on your system!
