Have you tried checking dba_dependencies for the objects
that go invalid?

You may see a pattern.

The original problem is that packages go invalid in the middle of the day with no 
upgrading going on, 
no physical changes happening in the database, nothing happening except the normal 
day-to-day operation 
of the system. 

We have seen this happening since 8i. 

We recently upgraded to 92040 and I have seen it once in the last week where it 
produced a dump -
 I dont know how many times it happened where no dump was produced. In 92021 we could 
see it multiple 
times in a day. 

There is a problem out there that Oracle can't seem to recreate.

Victoria, there is a whole slew of bugs with upgrade and patch application.
Here are two of them:

Patch 3099699
Description REPCA: CATPATCH LEAVES RDBMS UNUSABLE (INVALID OBJECTS IN, LBACSYS 
[OLS])

Patch 2949941
Description RULES ENGINE OBJECTS BECOME INVALID AFTER UPGRADE


There are quie a few others, not listed here. There was probably a SYS-owned object 
left invalid
during upgrade, which caused dependency problems. Solution is to upgrade 
to 9.2.0.4 now that you've already upgraded to 9.2.0.1 and run 
$ORALCE_HOME/rdbms/utlirp
to recompile all invalid objects in the database. It's always advised to so after any
upgrade or patching of the database.

We had a weird situation yesterday on a database that had been upgraded
from 8.1.6 to 9.2.0.1 over the weekend.  Suddenly at 10:30 am, after being
in production for a day and a half, 93 previously VALID packages, package
bodies, triggers and procedures went INVALID.  We have not been able to
figure out what made them go invalid (they were all in the same
application schema).  Anyway, we recompiled all objects and all were then
marked as VALID.  However, some of the code still failed to work;  (as an
aside, we narrowed it down to those packages that contained ref cursors).
Since the packages were apparently VALID, we did not recompile them again
until after we bounced the database and generally chased our tails for a
couple of hours.  In a last-ditch effort, we recompiled all the objects
again and the code started working.
Do any of you know of a bug in 9i that would cause an INVALID package to
be marked VALID?  Or,  when is a VALID package really INVALID?
Thanks for your input.

RE: Valid Packages/Procedures/Triggers that are NOT

2003-11-25 Thread Tony Johnson



We 
have been seeing this ever since we went to 9i and in multiple calls to Oracle 
support they have not been of much help.
 
Most 
of the time we get an error dump in udumo and things go on there merry way. 
A couple of times the packages go invalid and wont work but when looking 
at them thru OEM or other ways they all appear to be vaild. We do a complete 
recompile of everything and we are back up and running.

db will _try_ to recompile any code that is encountered after it gets 
marked as invalid. So, it may not be a bug after all.
