Symptoms
After upgrade, errors such as the one below occur intermittently:
The procedure name can be a dictionary object (DBMS_OUTPUT, DBMS_UTILITY are common examples) or a user created object.
Another possible symptom is the sudden object invalidation without an obvious cause.
DBA_REGISTRY shows all components as being valid.
The issue is not reproducible because of the intermittent nature of the error.
Changes
Known scenarios when such situations have occurred:
- Database upgrade.
- Privileges that were revoked and subsequently granted back, e.g.
