UTL_RAW

[Shyamis]

Hi pals,

I tried to create the package UTL_RAW using utlraw.sql, the package body was not created though. What script do I run to create the package body? Is there any site which lists out all the scripts in the rdbms/admin folder and the use for it?

Thanks in advance,

U don't need execute especial script for utl_raw package body.

[Shyamis]

Then how come my package body was not created? When I try to use UTL_RAW.length I get an error message!

Try:
select object_name, object_type, status from dba_objects where object_name = 'UTL_RAW';

Is package_body there and VALID.

What error message do you get?

[Shyamis]

When I check the dba_objects/user_objects table the result that I get is...

OBJECT_NAME
----------------------------------------------------
OBJECT_TYPE STATUS
--------------- -------
UTL_RAW
PACKAGE VALID

I do not see any entry for package body.

The error message I get is
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded
ORA-04067: not executed, package body "ADMIN.UTL_RAW" does not exist
ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called
ORA-06512: at line 11

You really don't have body - strange.

Wrapped package body UTL_RAW is in $ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\prvtrawb.plb

Hope it helps,

TomazZ,

thanks for the guidance, tried creating the package body using .plb but all I got was

Warning: Package Body created with compilation errors.

It will be great if someone can send me a copy of the actual .sql script to create the package body by e-mail to shyamala.sathiaseelan@eds.com please...

Thanks,
