Oracle 10G: Creation of a new scheduled job gives error

Question

When a new job is being created, it keeps giving this error. The job does not exist and has never been created. I have checked if such a job exists using EM and did not find one. Any help on this is really appreciated. Some entry is there in some table because of which it is not allowing me to create the job. Please help.
Error :
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-27477: "INRB.REFRESH_REPORTS_POETIC" already exists
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_ISCHED", line 99
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER", line 262
ORA-06512: at line 2
The code to create the job is below :
BEGIN
sys.dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name => '"INRB"."REFRESH_REPORTS_POETIC"',
job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action => 'begin
exec refresh_reports_poetic (''INLB'');
end;',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=10',
start_date => systimestamp at time zone '-4:00',
job_class => 'DEFAULT_JOB_CLASS',
comments => 'Refresh of reports.',
auto_drop => FALSE,
enabled => FALSE);
sys.dbms_scheduler.set_attribute( name => '"INRB"."REFRESH_REPORTS_POETIC"', attribute => 'restartable', value => TRUE);
sys.dbms_scheduler.enable( '"INRB"."REFRESH_REPORTS_POETIC"' );
END;

I'm running into a similar situation on 10g except in my case - I did create the job previously. I've tried to drop the job and I get an error that it doesn't exist. I don't see the job in EM or in dbs_scheduler_jobs.
Error trying to create the job:

Code to create the job:
BEGIN
sys.dbms_scheduler.create_job(

sys.dbms_scheduler.set_attribute( name => '"QDEC"."RUN_LOAD"', attribute => 'logging_level', value => DBMS_SCHEDULER.LOGGING_FULL);
sys.dbms_scheduler.enable( '"QDEC"."RUN_LOAD"' );
END;
Error trying to delete the job:
ORA-27475: "QDEC.RUN_LOAD" must be a job

Code to drop the job:
BEGIN dbms_scheduler.drop_job('"QDEC"."RUN_LOAD"');
end;
I'd be grateful for any info anyone has on this - thanks!
