So, could anybody suggest, what to do now and how to proceed to make this package valid ?

Nitesh,
So, could you help me to know the source where i can find the valuable information related to this.To find the pls for package creation, you can also do the following in your appl_top.
-> Go to the product top/patch/115/sql
-> grep -i fnd_securit * | grep -i create
You'll get an output something like this
AFSCGRPB.pls:create or replace package body FND_SECURITY_GROUPS_PKG as
AFSCGRPS.pls:create or replace package FND_SECURITY_GROUPS_PKG as
AFSCUSV8.pls:CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY fnd_security_pkg wrapped
AFSCUSVS.pls:CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE fnd_security_pkg AUTHID DEFINER AS
afpub.sql:CREATE SYNONYM FND_SECURITY_PKG FOR &1..FND_SECURITY_PKG;
afsecctx.sql:REM | Creates the fnd_security context and invalidates any obsolete
afsecctx.sql: execute immediate 'create context fnd_security using fnd_security_pkg';
In these you would need the pls related to FND_SECURITY which are AFSCUSV8.pls and AFSCUSVS.pls
-> sqlplus apps/apps @AFSCUSVS.pls (Spec)
-> sqlplus apps/apps @AFSCUSV8.pls (Body)

  • Pl sql packages getting invalid

    Hi All,
    I am working on a OLTP VLDB oracle 10g database. I have observed that many of pl sql packages get in invalid state. There are many cronjobs , dbms jobs running 24x7. How do I find out the root cause of this?

    You can write Database DDL trigger and log DDL operation into your log table.
    Then check which statement caused it:
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER DDL_TRIG BEFORE
    ON DATABASE
      INSERT INTO YOUR_LOG_TABLE
      SELECT ora_sysevent, ora_dict_obj_owner,
      ora_dict_obj_name, NULL, USER, SYSDATE
      FROM dual You should check if table which caused trigger to fire is dependency of your desired package like
    where ora_dict_obj_name in (
      select referenced_name from dba_dependencies where name IN(YOUR_INVALIDATED_PACK_LIST) and   
       referenced_type='TABLE';
      )

  • Package getting invalid often

    Dear all,
    In our environment, one package is getting invalid automatically ..
    we are getting the error :
    ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called
    This is happening regularly..no structural changes made to the package.. but the package is going into invalid state daily.. how to troubleshoot this ?
    this question might sound silly.. but in case any of you might have experienced this kinda issue?
    Kai

    Are you saying that if we call the time that a procedure in the package was last executed successfully Time 1 and the time that a procedure in the package was executed and generated the error Time 2 that there are no rows in DBA_OBJECTS with a LAST_DDL_TIME between Time 1 and Time 2?
    Does the package rely on remote objects?

  • Package gets invalidated seemingly at random

    Hi, I am experiencing a problem whereby a PL/SQL package is valid for same time (and runs succesfully a few times) and then suddenly becomes invalid in DB. If I recompile package it works for some time and then again gets invalid.
    Do you know what might cause such strange behavior.
    Also, does anyone know a way of obtaining error information from DB that reports why a package was flagged as invalid?
    Also, does anyone know how to obtain dependencies (both direct and indirect) for a package?
    Thanks for your help, regards,
    -Javier

    Thanks a lot Gio for your help. I was asking how to onbtain dependencies just because of the reason you mention.
    However if I run your query I get a dependency from the package body on the package. If I run the query on the package body (which is the one that gets flagged as invalid every once in a while) it does not return any dependency.
    In fact there are quite a few tables accessed inside the package but the query does not return a dependency on them. Nevertheless those tables are not supposed to be altered, and this problem repeats every day which makes me think that is not the problem.
    Thanks a lot,
    Javier

  • Getting invalid packages when installing support for stored java objects

    I am getting invalid packages notices when installing support for stored java objects in Forms 9i that can with the Oracle 9iDS Suite. In the post installation notes it says to locate a few SQL files, PLB files and a JAR file and run them. On executing the SQL package that will install the rest , I am logged in as SYSTEM as the instructions stated, I get an error when it tries to load the PLB files ( which are encrypted from Oracle). Any one else have this problem or know of a solution?
    If you need more information please let me know and I will try to respond promptly.
    Thanks
    Chad Leath

    The PLB package is called ORA_DE_REFLECTION. I forgot to mention this in the previous post.

  • Package owner - invalid packages

    Hello guys,
    I have this problem: I have two DB schemes A and B. I modified the code in both schemes. After compilation, many packages were invalidated. So I compiled all invalid packages, no compilation errors, everything ok.
    Now if I run this query in scheme A:
    SELECT *
    FROM ALL_OBJECTS
    WHERE OBJECT_TYPE IN ('PACKAGE', 'PACKAGE BODY')
    AND STATUS = 'INVALID';I get two records.
    The first one shows an invalid package where owner is scheme C - this is ok, because in scheme C is really such invalid package which has granted execute to scheme A.
    The second one shows an invalid package body, where owner is scheme A. But in scheme A, there is no such package. The "invalid" package is in fact in scheme B, it is in fact not invalid and it has no grants at all. So scheme A has no access to that package at all.
    Recompilation of this package in scheme B has no impact on the result. Why is the package marked as invalid and why is scheme A assigned as an owner???
    Now I run exactly same query in scheme B and get one record.
    One package is marked as invalid where owner is scheme B. However this package is in scheme A and scheme A is the owner of this package. Again the package is not invalid and recompilation of that package has no impact... In this case the package has granted execute to scheme B, so scheme B has the access to this package.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks, Dan

    I found the problem...
    After I did those changes to that packages, I first compiled the bodies to wrong schemes. So the bodies were created without specifications. I didn't see those packages because SQL Developer doesn't display them in such case...
    So I droped them now.

  • Valid packages goes invalid when executing application

    Friends of pl/sql
    When we execute our application we find that 2 of our main packiages go invalid for no reason. The packages compiles just fine when we then compile them. So, no syntax errors. But it stops our application with a lovely "existing state of packages have been discarded......." type error. Not too nice.
    What are some of the things to check on for why the package goes invalid ?
    We are using TOAD and sql*monitor to trace the process at the moment...........
    Any solutions out there ?
    Environment : Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 on Oracle 11.1.0.6 (latest patch available). Oracle 11 client as well.
    Edited by: ow001294 on Apr 15, 2009 9:24 AM

    One of my older standard responses (haven't use this in a while)..
    Packages tend to fail because of their "package state". A package has a "state" when it contains package level variables/constants etc. and the package is called. Upon first calling the package, the "state" is created in memory to hold the values of those variables etc. If an object that the package depends upon e.g. a table is altered in some way e.g. dropped and recreated, then because of the database dependencies, the package takes on an INVALID status. When you next make a call to the package, Oracle looks at the status and sees that it is invalid, then determines that the package has a "state". Because something has altered that the package depended upon, the state is taken as being out of date and is discarded, thus causing the "Package state has been discarded" error message.
    If a package does not have package level variables etc. i.e. the "state" then, taking the same example above, the package takes on an INVALID status, but when you next make a call to the package, Oracle sees it as Invalid, but knows that there is no "state" attached to it, and so is able to recompile the package automatically and then carry on execution without causing any error messages. The only exception here is if the thing that the package was dependant on has changes in such a way that the package cannot compile, in which case you'll get an Invalid package type of error.
    And if you want to know how to prevent discarded package states....
    Move all constants and variables into a stand-alone package spec and reference those from your initial package. Thus when the status of your original package is invlidated for whatever reason, it has no package state and can be recompiled automatically, however the package containing the vars/const will not become invalidated as it has no dependencies, so the state that is in memory for that package will remain and can continue to be used.
    As for having package level cursors, you'll need to make these local to the procedures/functions using them as you won't be able to reference cursors across packages like that (not sure about using REF CURSORS though.... there's one for me to investigate!)
    This first example shows the package state being invalided by the addition of a new column on the table, and causing it to give a "Package state discarded" error...

  • DBMS_JOB using Packaged Functions but Package goes invalid

    Is there any way to check a package while running a PL/SQL procedure to see if it's state is valid and then catch the exception?
    In my case usually just calling any function in the package 1x clears it up but the procedure in question runs as a DBMS_JOB it just keeps failing. This procedure could run often enough that Oracle will mark it as broken but I want to give it every shot at execution on time instead of having to make it wait till the next cycle.
    What I would like to do is to catch the exception for the package state being invalid and basically have it go back to the beginning of the procedure and give it another try before failing in case it is just a failure because the package has been altered.
    Is there any way to do this?

    Firstly, I'll copy/paste my standard response regarding package state going invalid as it usually helps to have an understanding of these things...
    Packages tend to fail because of their "package state". A package has a "state" when it contains package level variables/constants etc. and the package is called.

When you next make a call to the package, Oracle looks at the status and sees that it is invalid, then determines that the package has a "state".

  • Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

    Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

    Thank you for your suggestion but I have already had a couple of phone sessions with NETGEAR support and they don't see any problems with the router settings etc. They referred me to Apple support, who helped me discover that it is possible to communicate with the router but only if I turn off the encryption/security software, which I don't want to do. The frustrating thing is that I can connect wirelessly from a laptop running Windows 7 and two Anroid smart phones, with WPA-2 in place, without a problem. Do you have any other ideas?

  • Since last update (today) I get invalid password when trying to use back to my MAC, password works everywhere else

    since last update (today) I get invalid Apple ID password when trying to use back to my MAC in Icloud app on my MAC, password works on all my other devices. GLITCH ?

    Try going to the Apple ID page on your web browser
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    and try to either retrieve or reset your password
    (obviously you had to be able to successfully log in to be able to post here)
    I was finally able to log in through my system preferences after about three or four hours. I ran a disk utility to repair permissions and restarted and it seemed to work ok.

  • Getting Invalid password message while running catalog utility

    Hi,
    I am trying to index the modifyTimestamp attribute using catalog utility in OID.
    I am using the command as :
    ./catalog -connect=orcl -add=TRUE -attribute=modifyTimestamp
    Enter OID password:
    but I am getting Invalid password error when I am entering the super user (cn=orcladmin) password.
    Could you please help me in solving this issue.
    Also can someone help me in knowing how to check what should be the correct value of connect_string.
    I am running this command on Solaris.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Rohit,
    The fix to this is fairly straightforward.
    You have input an incorrect path for the -infile parameter when calling cryptotools.
    You entered , -infile OracleBIData_HOME/web/config/credentialstore.xml
    when it should be, -infile C:\OracleBI\web\config\credentialstore.xml , depending on the absolute physical path to the credentialstore.xml file.
    It looks like you were attempting to use either a Nix (unix/linux) path with the forward slashes or you where trying to use a environment variable for "OracleBIData_Home".  I can see from the c:\ that you are on a Windows machine so the Nix path won't work. Also if you are attempting to use an environment variable that you have confirmed is indeed set, then you need to use %OracleBIData_HOME% in the command prompt which would look like %OracleBIData_HOME%\web\config\credentialstore.xml
    So to answer your question your command should appear as below if I have accessed your path to the OracleBIData home correctly, you may need to change it based on your installation,
    C:\OracleBI\web\bin>cryptotools credstore -add -infile C:\OracleBIData\web\config\credentialstore.xml
    Just be mindful of your paths and your backslashes vs. forward slashes.
    Please mark this as the correct answer to award points if it is or if you read it and it helped you.
    Cheers,
    Christian
