Oracle Database Packages and Types Invalid

shannuraJul 6 2012 — edited Jul 6 2012
hi!

how to re-validate 'Oracle Database Packages and Types' component. The current status in DBA_REGISTRY indicates as 'INVALID', modified timestamp as '30-JUN-2012 10:24:40'. While examining the alert log, I found the following entries just before the INVALID status (i assume).

Sat Jun 30 10:24:35 2012
SERVER COMPONENT id=UTLRP_BGN: timestamp=2012-06-30 10:24:35
SERVER COMPONENT id=UTLRP_END: timestamp=2012-06-30 10:24:39

can anyone help on what could have caused the 'INVALID' status suddenly. now, how do i revalidate the component. is it safe to run catproc.sql once again in a restricted session.

database version: 10g SE (10.2.0.4.0)
host server: rhel 5.4 x86_64

thanks in advance!

rgds,
shannura

All licensing questions should be forward to your local friendly oracle sales rep.

As I understand, you are allowed to run 1 XE instance per physical box.

That's my interpretation.

Thanks MK, I would agree with you completely if this would have been more customer specific license question.

But then I still believe it is an open ended license question on XE, applicable for all general users and thought if we would receive an appropriate answer this could benefit the rest of the community as well.

Oracle isn't going to answer any license questions on the forum.  Not even for XE.

As much as we would like them to, this isn't going to happen.

You can trust my interpretation of the license.  I'm only a Male French Model by night. 

cultural note:  the "male french model" is a reference to an american commercial where a lady believes everything that is written on the internet is true.  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DZbSlkFoSU  )

It serves as a tongue-in-cheek warning to those that read stuff on the internet about what you can/cannot do with respect to [Oracle] licenses.

If/when Oracle takes you to court, your defense can not be ".. but I read it on the internet.  It must be true."

As such, the only appropriate answer for any license question is:

Ask your local friendly oracle sales rep.
