Greetings all, Oracle 10.2.0.2 RedHat Linux AS5 (kernel 2.6.18) I have a job that uses data pump to export from production and import into development. One schema always gets 3 errors like the following when compiling 3 procedures. ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"<SCHEMA>"."<PROCEDURE_NAME>" created with compilation warnings Once the import is finished, I can simply recompile the 3 procs and all is well. But I am trying to figure why they fail compilation during the import. As best I can tell (which may not be so good), the similar trait all 3 procedures have is that they use private synonyms in their code. MoS 793609.1 says that synonyms are imported before tables but that shouldn't be problem. To wit: When the synonym is created it is valid even if the table for which is created does not exist. If the table is created afterward, it will become invalid. And then: The fact that the synonyms are invalid after import is not a problem as they will be automatically validated when they will be next called. Of course, the recompilation takes place technically before the import is completed and I wonder if that's the issue. I don't think this is bug 5581731 because my source database is not a multibyte character set (nor is the target database for that matter). This is simply a minor inconvenience but I am trying to figure it out. Any/all ideas/tips/pointers are welcome.
