'How To Set Server Output On in DataGrip

How Can I "set server output" on in Jetbrains DataGrip IDE? I am able to do this in SQL Developer and run the SQL script successfully. The same script I try to run in DataGrip and it gives error. I know its the "set server output on" that is not working because I had to configure SQL Developer for it to work. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.



Solution 1:[1]

According to the documentation:

For Oracle, you can enable or disable showing the contents of the DBMS_OUTPUT buffer in the output pane. To do that, use button on the toolbar of the Database Console tool window (Ctrl+F8).

They also show an image of the window with the button enabled;

Update: 2019

The icon to enable the output looks like:

On MacOS it can be enabled with Command+F8.

Server output is client side functionality that not all clients support. SQL*Plus and SQL Developer do, but it's not a given that any other client will.

The SQL*Plus client command set serveroutput on essentially calls the DBMS_OUTPUT.enable() stored procedure on your behalf. Additionally it signals to the client that is should inspect the DBMS_OUTPUT.get_lines() procedure for cached output after each code block is executed.

If DataGrip doesn't do this already, you may be able to manually code the calls to DBMS_OUTPUT.enable() and DBMS_OUTPUT.get_lines() as needed.

For version 2021.1 right click on the console list in the service window and there should be a enable DBMS_OUTPUT when you right click.
