My sentiments exactly. If you can't drop the schema, go to dba_objects and drop everything that has a CREATED that matches the time when the catalog.sql was mis-run.
Sounds as if someone decided to clean up the database and dropped all those PUBLIC SYNONYMS that they didn't understand. You're probably going to have to re-run catalog.sql as SYS also. It doesn't sound too serious, just don't mess up the database anymore. Make sure that you understand what you're doing and why you're doing it.

If so he should have been in bed. You now have all the packages and procedures created in catalog living in dma_rbate2 schema? can you drop that schema? You can desc sys.dbms_backup_restore. Did you loose a public/private synonym here that can solve the problem of rman not being able to find the package??

Suspect recovery is in the cards, but want to avoid if possible. Yesterday, users unable to get to their own functions. Soon after, RMAN cannot find package dbms_backup_restore, even though it exists under sys. Oncall ran the sql script to recreate - and the pacakge was recreated under a schema called dma_rbate2. RMAN now finds the package under dma_rbate2, although it is invalid. Drop the package under dma_rbate2, and now RMAN cannot find the package any longer, although it still exists under sys. Logged in as sys. Tried to desc dbms_backup_restore - no luck. Tried to desc sys.dbms_backup_restore - success. Analyst reccomends running catalog.sql. Oncall does so, and it creates as many packages as it is able under dma_rbate2. I get up this AM and can't login, because the sessions can't find the package dma_rbate2.dbms_application_info. Anyone? Buhler? Buhler? thx, jack __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
