Troubleshooting during Upgrade Oracle Applications 11i to 10g

During the Oracle Apps Database upgrade to 10g that I wrote about in the previous post, I ran into some errors. In this post I will write about the errors symptoms, causes and the solutions that worked for me. :-)

Case 1: XDB (Oracle XML Database) schema is invalid

Symptom: During the upgrade process an error message shows up: ORA-06576: not a valid function or procedure name

In Oracle_Server.log: ($ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/dbua/[SID]/upgrade/) call dbms_xdb.CleanSGAForUpgrade(); call dbms_xdb.CleanSGAForUpgrade(); * ERROR at line 1: ORA-06576: not a valid function or procedure name When click on Ignore an error message shows up:

ORA-31159: XML DB is in an invalid state ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [qmtb_init_len], [], [], [], [], [], Cause: Oracle XML Database (XDB) is in an Invalid state. Execute this query to check the XDB state: select comp_name, status, version from DBA_REGISTRY where comp_name= 'Oracle XML Database; COMP_NAME STATUS VERSION Oracle XML Database INVALID 9.2.0.6.0 Solution: The XDB schema should be reinstalled. Ive Followed Note 243554.1 - How to Deinstall and Reinstall XML Database (XDB) Step by Step Action Plan: 1) Restart the DB 2) Connect to DB as sysdba 3) Run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catnoqm.sql to remove XDB from database. 4) Update init.ora with the following (at least): Shared_pool_size=150MB Java_pool_size=150MB 5) Shutdown immediate 6) Startup

7) Run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catqm.sql XDB XDB TEMP to create the XDB schema with all required objects 8) Run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catxdbj.sql to register XDB java api jar files. 9) Check invalid objects for xdb users select count(*) from dba_objects where owner='XDB' and status='INVALID'; 10) Check dba_registry (should be valid now) select comp_name, status, version from DBA_REGISTRY where comp_name= 'Oracle XML Database;

Case 2: ORA-06512 AT SYS.UTL_RECOMP

Symptoms: During the upgrade process, an error message shows up: ORA-01003: no statement parsed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 464 ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 467 ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 607 ORA-01003: no statement parsed ORA-06512: at line 4

Ive take a look on log file $ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/dbua/ [SID]/upgrade/PostUpgrade.log:

DECLARE 2 threads pls_integer := &&1; 3 BEGIN 4 utl_recomp.recomp_parallel(threads); 5 END; 6/ DECLARE * ERROR at line 1: ORA-01003: no statement parsed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 464 ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 467 ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 607 ORA-01003: no statement parsed ORA-06512: at line 4 And those are the last lines of the related trace file: [Thread-23] [18:12:10:580] [SQLEngine.setSpool:1744] Setting Spool = /oracle/tst10db/10.2/cfgtoollogs/dbua/TST10/upgrade/PostUpgrade.log [Thread-23] [18:12:10:581] [SQLEngine.setSpool:1745] Is spool appendable? --> true [Thread-23] [18:12:10:584] [SQLEngine.reInitialize:602] Reinitializing SQLEngine...

Solution:

Set the following initialization parameters: SHARED_POOL_SIZE = 250 Mb or greater LARGE_POOL_SIZE = 150 Mb or greater JAVA_POOL_SIZE = 150 Mb or greater Then rerunning: sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> shutdown immediate SQL> startup upgrade SQL> spool my_upgrade.log SQL> @/rdbms/admin/catpupgrd.sql SQL> @/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql SQL> spool off

Case 3: Shutdown Database Error ORA-600 [Librarycachenotemptyonclose]

Symptom: The first shutdown after upgrade to 10g shows an error message: SQL> shutdown immediate Database closed. Database dismounted. ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [LibraryCacheNotEmptyOnClose], [], [], [], [], [], [], [] Cause: Related note 435926.1 - Shutdown Database Erroring ORA-600 [Librarycachenotemptyonclose] An unpublished bug: 4483084 say that this particular ORA-600 error can be ignored as it means nothing - actually there is no error. Solution: Do nothing When it will be available, upgrade to 10.2.0.4.0.

Case 4: OLAP Catalog component (AMD) is invalid after upgrade

Symptom: Check OLAP catalog state: select comp_name, status, version from DBA_REGISTRY where comp_name= 'OLAP Catalog'; COMP_NAME STATUS VERSION OLAP Catalog INVALID 10.2.0.3.0 Solution: Recreate OLAP Catalog. ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/livedb/10.2 ORACLE_SID=TST10 PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH sqlplus /nolog SQL>spool olap_spool.log SQL>connect SYS as SYSDBA SQL>@?/olap/admin/olap.sql SYSAUX TEMP; -- Recompile everything SQL>@?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql SQL>spool off Check status of AMD again should be VALID: select comp_name,version,status from dba_registry where comp_name like '%OLAP%';

Case 5: A lot of invalid objects in DB after upgrade

Symptom: A lot of invalid objects in DB which cannot be compiled because of this error: (examples) Compilation errors for PACKAGE BODY APPS.HR_DM_LIBRARY #13#10Error: PLS-00907: cannot load library unit PUBLIC.DBMS_SQL (referenced by APPS.HR_DM_LIBRARY) Line: 0 Compilation errors for PACKAGE BODY APPS.HR_DU_DI_INSERT #13#10Error: PLS-00907: cannot load library unit PUBLIC.UTL_FILE (referenced by APPS.HR_DU_DI_INSERT)

Line: 0 Compilation errors for PACKAGE BODY APPS.IBE_QUOTE_SAVE_PVT #13#10Error: PLS-00907: cannot load library unit PUBLIC.UTL_HTTP (referenced by APPS.CZ_CF_API) Line: 0 Cause: Existing PL/SQL modules should recompiled in the FORMAT required by the NEW DATABASE. The utlirp.sql hasn't been run after the upgrade. Solution: conn /as sysdba shutdown startup upgrade @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlirp.sql shutdown startup @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql About the utlirp.sql script: The utlirp.sql script invalidate all existing PL/SQL modules (procedures, functions, packages, types, triggers, views) in a database. This script must be run when it is necessary to regenerate the compiled code because the PL/SQL code format is inconsistent with the Oracle executable. Please note that this script does not recompile invalid objects automatically so you must restart the database and explicitly invoke utlrp.sql to recompile invalid objects. Hope you won't get into this errors, but if so, you can use this post as a reference... :-)
