DBMS_METADATA Package Body won't compile

I get a PLS-00103 error when attempting to complile the package body for SYS.DBMS_METADATA. The body hasn't been modified so I'm not sure where to look.

Or,
Does anyone know where in a script I can find the line that created this package and body in the first place?

Package body does not compile in Object Browser

Hi there,
I am trying to compile a package body using the Apex Object Browser. However, when I click the "Compile" button no message is displayed in the box above the package body code. I reduced the amount of code by removing comments and extra carriage returns and it then compiled ie the message "PL/SQL code successfully compiled (18:35:55) " was displayed. After trial and error I found that by adding just one character to the end of a comment line would cause this problem and by removing it the problem would dis-appear.
I raised this issue back on 19th June, and sspadafo responded by suggesting that I upgrade from Apex 2.1 to Apex 3.2. (Thanks by the way). This I have now done but the problem is still occurring. Is there some parameter that I have to increase in order to compile packages greater than a couple of kilobytes in size?
Database is 10.2 XE running on Windows Vista Home Premium.
Thanks.
John.

What would you say is a large package that sometimes causes the compilation to fail? For example, in excess of 10000 lines of code.
I've just tried a package with the minimal amount of code, with as many comments as required to demonstrate the problem as follows:
Note: The last comment is on line number 108!
create or replace package body "TEST_PACKAGE" is
--Comments comments comments comments comments
--Comments comments comments comments comments
--Comments comments comments comments comments
--Comments comments comments comments comments
--Comments comm...
... comments comments comments
--Comments comments comments comments comments
--Comments comments comments comments commen
procedure TEST_PROC
as
begin
null; /* insert procedure code */
end TEST_PROC;
end "TEST_PACKAGE";
{end code}
You will notice that the last comment line is truncated. The above compiles everytime, but by adding one more character to the last comment line will cause it not to compile everytime. Downloading the above to disk gives a size of 5134 bytes, which is twice the size of the other package, which has a little more code, that I was trying to compile. When I say a "a little more code", I mean two procedures and one function of approximately 20 lines each!
Oh well! Looks like I'll have to give SQLDeveloper a try as I don't fancy going through the "edit file/action file" loop in SQL*Plus or the "submit script/wait for results/examine results" loop in SQL Scripts.
(For info, I am using Internet Explorer 7)
Thanks.

As far as I am aware of, no one touched any code.
Does anyone know how to correct this?
Does this prevent deploying objects.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rene

Fixed this way:
Altered the script:
•     Based on Wb_rt_profile_se.sql, created a drop_wb_rt_profile_se_fixed.sql to drop everything created by wb_rt_profile_se.sql.
•     Based on Wb_rt_profile.sql, create wb_rt_profile_fixed.sql to remove partitioning.
What happened seemed to be:
•     Wb_rt_profile_se.sql was run during the installation.
•     Then wb_rt_profile_service.sql referenced objects created by wb_rt_profile.sql, or there was no wb_rt_prifile_service_se.sql.
Run drop_wb_rt_profile_se_fixed.sql.
Then run Wb_rt_profile_fixed.sql
Recompile all objects.
OK.

Hi,
In side the Package Body,
a) invalid arguments for IS_HIERARCHY_ENABLED_INTERNAL
b) invalid components GENERATE_TRGNM, etc.
First, you need to correct the above errors and then
try to compile the Package Body

SQL*Developer 3EA1 - Not Compiling package Body

Don't know if this is best place to post this, if not tell me where.
In some packages i'm getting: Error: ORA-06550: linha 1, coluna 64:PLS-00172: literal de cadeia de caracteres demasiado extenso; Sorry about the portuguese error message but it's cpopy paste from compiler log.
The strange about this is that the package is compiling with no errors on Version 2.1.1.64 and also on others editors. In both packages i had this was after formatting the code.
So far is the only bug i got, keep on the good work.
António Cunha

Just tried from pl/sql node. The package body does not compile from there either. The issue seems to be the size of the package. The package size is 35,000 characters and spaces. I can remove any combination of source lines to get it down to 32,000 characters and spaces and it will compile.

i dont understand how can ichange something here?In this case, you can't.
If this is one of the standard packages built into an Oracle Apps database, you need to log a tar/sr with Oracle support. (which will probably result in more patches)

You need to ask Apex related questions in the Apex forum.
Include the 4 digit Oracle and Apex versions you are using when you post your problem.
I assume that you have read how to implement SSO for Apex applications to be partner applications for Oracle App Server single sign-on authentication? If not, I suggest that you search http://tahiti.oracle.com for the relevant instructions. (cannot recall the exact manual reference - I did this 3 or 4 years ago myself)

Invalid package body for flows_010500 schema

The following package body will not compile, I ran the utlprp.sql script to recompile as sysdba and they still compile with errors. Is this the schema for version 1.5 and no loner needed if we are using 1.6 htmldb? if so can the flows_010500 be dropped?

Janice,
If you have installed 1.6 and upgraded your 1.5 applications, you technically no longer need the FLOWS_010500 schema, and you can drop it.
To be super conservative, you can take an export of it before dropping it, should you find the extremely unlike scenario where you would need to revert back to 1.5.
Thanks,

Loosing Package Body after Save As to file

Hi,
loosing File and Package Body in
after Compiling a package body, I've tried to save this body to file via Save As.
(I've changed the directory and accepted the default filename). The file already exits in this directory, so I've accepted the overwrite dialog box.
Then the Package Body was removed from Database (not shown in the list of packages - also after several refreshs and filter changes) and the saved file contains only
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY
NULL
What I've done wrong?
Matthias

We need a few more details to replicate. Are you using 1.0.0.14.67 and which db version are you running against.
Then, was this an existing package body or one you were just creating. If just creating, did you already have a package spec and were creating the body? Did you do a right-click 'New Package Body'? If you compiled code, it would go into the database. I can't imagine that a Save As could possible drop that code.
