Why Package Specification only in INVALID State

Hi All,
Why Package spec is going to invalid state when I change a Procedure which is called in Package body
and why package body is still in VALID state. Can some one please clarify my doubt.

May be only specification got errors and not the package.
May be the constants / variables declared in package specification has wrong reference
like var1 tab1.col1%type which column doesnexists....
OR
V number(1) :=10;
or
improper closing / ending of a procedure..

Package procedure in invalid state

Hi all,
We are having an application in C# and backend oracle 10g placed in Location1.
There is modification in Packaged procedure. So we remotely (from Location2) connected to Location1 and that Packaged procedure is created.
This Packaged procedure has been created (in Location1 ) without any errors. But this procedure is in INVALID state. We tried to compile it remotely by using following statements, but still this is in invalid state .
ALTER PACKAGE my_package COMPILE;
ALTER PACKAGE my_package COMPILE BODY;
If we run this package and package body manually, without any modifications after creating it remotly, it is becoming VALID state.
I am not getting any idea, why it is creating in INVALID state. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Pal

Ok, here's a previous response that I gave re. packages and their "states". Should give you a good idea what a state is...
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 Because something has altered that the package depended upon, the state is taken as being out of date and is discarded, thus causing the "Package state has been discarded" error message.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...

Privilege to view Package DDL only

Hello Friends,
I need your help on GRANTS.
Oracle version: Oracle 11G R2
OS: AIX
I have three users in a database. Among these three users, two users, say USR1 and USER2 are having all database objects which is needed for my application and poses all system privileges equivalent to a DBA role.
The 3rd one I have created is a READ user. I want this user to view only source code of PACKAGES AND PACKAGES BODY objects of only USR1, not USR2. Also, I have more than thousand packages/package bodies in USR1. READ should not be able to CREATE or compile a procedure, just simply be able to view the source code.
FYI, GRANT EXECUTE enables me to see PACKAGE specific only, not PACKAGE BODY.
Which privilege should I grant to READ user to achieve this security?
Please help.

Invalid state when running first time after compile

Often I will compile a package body without errors.
The first time I run it, I will get the package is in an invalid state. The second time I run the package it will run fine.
What is going on?
Thanks,
goo

Hi,
Dose it happen always ? Check if any object is getting changed. Is your package doing any thing which might be altering any objects being used by the package.
thanks

Package is invalid state when called in Trigger

Hi All,
We have a trigger in which we are calling procedure(which is created in some package). Every time the trigger is called it returned an error
'Package is in INVALID State".We tried to clean the app pool and that error went away but now it started coming again.
Please help as we have been struggling hard for this .
Database is ORA 10g.
Please let me know if there are any other questions.

Marius
Looking at the logic you are trying to create it looks like you are looking for overlapping time periods.
Consider two date/time ranges:
Range 1 : T1 - T2
Range 2 : T3 - T4
Do they overlap?
1) No: T1 < T4 (TRUE) T2 > T3 (FALSE)
T1 --- T2
           T3 --- T4
2) Yes: T1 < T4 (TRUE) T2 > T3 (TRUE)
T1 ---------- T2
           T3 --- T4
3) Yes: T1 < T4 (TRUE) T2 > T3 (TRUE)
T1 -------------------- T2
           T3 --- T4
4) Yes: T1 < T4 (TRUE) T2 > T3 (TRUE)
               T1 ----- T2
           T3 --- T4
5) Yes: T1 < T4 (TRUE) T2 > T3 (TRUE)
           T1 --- T2
       T3 ------------ T4
5) No: T1 < T4 (FALSE) T2 > T3 (TRUE)
                T1 --- T2
       T3 --- T4Answer: Yes they overlap if:
T1 < T4 AND T2 > T3
So you can code the logic in your SQL as simply:
SELECT *
FROM tbl
WHERE range1_start < range2_end
AND    range_1_end > range2_startIf you go around implementing PL/SQL functions for simple logic that can be achieved in SQL alone then you cause context switching between the SQL and PL/SQL engines which degrades performance. Wherever possible stick to just SQL and only use PL/SQL if absolutely necessary.

How to open and compile a package specification and body in SQL Developer

I'm currently evaluating a possible migration to SQL Developer.
Our PL/SQL code base is stored in scripts files named as follows: <schema>.<package_name>_<package|package_body>.sql and managed in SVN.
If now trying open a sql script containing the package specification or body and trying to compile it, I get no or strange error messages as if SQLDeveloper would not recognize the source as a PL/SQL code.
If I open an already compiled package from the database it seems to work as expected.
On the other hand I cannot find any option to write a package specification or body to a script except for the "Save package spec and body" option that only generates a single (!) script containing package specification and body in one single file and without any configuration options on how to name the generated file.
Any help is appreciated!

What strange error messages ? Make sure to configure your extensions as PL/SQL file type under Preferences - File Types.
To save, just Save As under the File menu.
Hope that helps,
K.

Unable to fetch columns; Invalid state/No Suitable Driver

Hi!
I'm trying to populate a combo box with data from a MySQL database (or any other database for that matter), I create a JDBC connection source, and set the following:
URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
Driver = org.mysql.jdbc.Driver (i have also tried org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver)
Username = anonymous
Password = <blank>
Next I create a NBJdbcRowSet and set:
Command = SELECT * FROM foo
Connection Provider = connectionSource1 (the above connection source)
Now if I click the elipses next to Default Column Values, I get the message 'Unable to fetch columns; Invalid State'
If I replace the NBJDBCRowSet with a NBCachedRowSet, the error becomes 'Unable to fetch columns; No Suitable Driver'.
The database is browseable in the runtime tab, and the table exists (I can run SQL queries and get the expected results). The anonymous account exists and has access to the tables in question (the same setup is used in a few different applications, all of which work fine). Using the root account gives the same results. Using the PointBase example database gives the same results:
Driver: com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver
URL: jdbc:pointbase:server://localhost:9092/sample
Details of setup:
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
IDE: Sun Java Studio Enterprise 7 2004Q4
Java version in use: 1.4.2_05 (as packaged with the studio)
MySQL: v5.0.7-beta-nt
Connector: MySQL Connector/J 3.0.17-ga
PointBase: As came with Studio Enterprise
I should mention that I can get DB connectivity in my app, I can create a comboBox and set the model to 'nBCachedRowSet1: name' and the contents of that field appears in my comboBox, however I need to create about a dozen tables and I don't relish the thought of manually creating models for each one ;)
Any suggestions are appreciated!
Cheers!
Darren

Hi Thanks for your reply.
I've retried with PointBase and the Sample DB:
* New project. New JFrame.
* Create ConnectionSource, NBJdbcRowSet, ComboBox
* Config ConnectionSource:
- Driver: com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver
- URL: jdbc:pointbase:server://localhost:9092/sample
- Username/pass: as per PointBase setup
* Config NBJdbcRowSet
- ConnectionProvider: connectionSource1
- Command: SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERINFO
- Default Column Values: <open GUI>, <Fetch Columns>, "Unable to fetch columns; Invalid State"
So this is where I get the problem, I'm not sure if i've buggered it up though, so I continue to see if I can get data:
- Add Column: NAME
- OK, Close
* Config ComboBox
- Open Model dialog
- Select Mode: ComboBoxEditor
- RowSet: nBJdbcRowSet1 (this throws the error again)
- Column: NAME (entered manually, dropdown is empty)
- OK, Close
* Run app
Errors!
Seems like the GUI builder did something wrong - it generated a bunch of functions for each thing i added, like this:
public void setJComboBox1(JComboBox val) {
this.jComboBox1 = val;
and the project won't compile. I figure out it should be like this:
public void setJComboBox1(javax.swing.JComboBox val) {
this.jComboBox1 = val;
but the functions aren't doing anything anyway, so I delete them all. I'm starting to think my installation is borked.
Project now compiles and runs, but there's no data, and I get:
ClassNotFoundException: com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver
At this point i should probably find the jar with that driver in it and mount this/add it to the classpath, but the boss has decided we'll use Borland Delphi 2005 .NET anyways, so I won't take this any further...
Thanks for your help guys!

ACE - TCP probe goes into INVALID state

Hello,
I have a problem with the following configuration of a sticky serverfarm with a backup serverfarm
(this setup is ofcourse used only for failover purposes, not loadbalancing):
probe tcp tcp-8888-probe
port 8888
interval 5

rserver rsrv2 8888
   inservice
sticky http-cookie RFARM-COOKIE sticky-rfarm-1

serverfarm rfarm-primary backup rfarm-backup
etc....
The problem is that every time probe state changes (from SUCCESS to FAIL or otherwise), the tcp-8888-probe on the server that changed
the state of service, goes into INVALID state:
#show probe tcp-8888-probe detail

I have managed to get the probe into FAIL state again for a moment by removing it from serverfarm, and then reapplying, but in a few seconds it goes again from FAIL to INVAILD state, and stays in this state regardless of avaliability of probed TCP port. Only when i'm reapplying it when the port is avaliable/up, it can stay in SUCCESS state, and work till the failure of service, when INVALID state reappears.
What can be the cause of such behavior ?
thanks,
WM

Hello,
It looks very similar to this bug: CSCsh74871
You may need to collect a #show tech-support and do the following:
-remove the serverfarm in question
-reboot the ace module under a maintenance window.
You may upgrade to a higher version since your version is kind of old.
