Can not execute my created procedure

Question

Hello
I have created a package with some procedures and functions, from Duncans site:
http://djmein.blogspot.com/2007/07/custom-authentication-authorisation.html
When I look in my SQL Workshop > Object-Browser > Packages
I see my APP_SECURITY_PKG in the left column, if i cklick on it,
then I see on right side my Specification and body of my package
in this case:
create or replace PACKAGE app_security_pkg
AS
PROCEDURE add_user (p_lastname IN VARCHAR2, p_firstname IN VARCHAR2,
p_email IN VARCHAR2, p_password IN VARCHAR);
END app_security_pkg;
ok so far so good
now I am in my SQL Workshop
and tried:
EXECUTE APP_SECURITY_PKG.add_user ('taubek', 'markus', '[email protected]', 'geheim')
but its not working
'I am tried also:
SELECT APP_SECURITY_PKG.add_user ('taubek', 'markus', '[email protected]', 'geheim') from dual;
but also its not working, it doesnt found my procedure
ORA-00904: "APP_SECURITY_PKG"."ADD_USER": ungültiger Bezeichner ("ungültiger Bezeichner" means illegal name)
Can anybody help me?

Hello Markus,
You're probably stuck in the synonyms and grants pit.
Check the owners of the procedures you use in the other procedures. When they're used in different schemes/owners grant execute rights directly (not using a role).
Also when you use the SQL Workshop tot test your code, be aware that this runs using the APEX_PUBLIC_USER (try : select user from dual).
So this user needs to be granted to execute the procedures you've created. (And probably you have to define some synonyms).
Hoffentlich hilft das etwas...
