Oracle Communication between 11g and 8i

Kantermark — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 23:28:50 +0000

We are considering upgrading one of our database from 8i to either 10g or 11g. We know currently that the 10g client is compatible with 8i communication because we have two performance tools database(GRID and I3) which are 10 and they appear to have no issues. However we were wondering if there is any communication problems between 11 and 8..similar to when 9 and 7 would not work together back in the day.

Invalid objects after upgrade from 8.1.7.4 to 10G

DBAKim — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 20:39:28 +0000

for the following procedure within a package:

PROCEDURE GET_ALL_REGIONS(rs_REGION_LIST OUT r_REGION_LIST,
Vrc2_err_msg OUT VARCHAR) IS

BEGIN
OPEN rs_REGION_LIST FOR
SELECT DISTINCT(PRS_REGION)
INTO r_REGION_LIST
FROM SET_PARISH_RFT;

Vrc2_err_msg:=NULL;
RETURN;

EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
Vrc2_err_msg:=SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,200);
RETURN;
END GET_ALL_REGIONS;

I am getting this error.

pls-00321: expression ‘R_REGION_LIST’ is inappropriate as the left hand side of an assignment statement
PL/SQL: ORA-00904:: invalid identifier
PLS-00321: expression ‘R_VIOLATION_DESCRIPTIONS’ is inappropriate as the left hand side of an assignment statement
PL/SQL: ORA-00904:: invalid identifier

I have not pinpointed wich exact question to ask. It looks like the select into statement is created correctly and that you are still allowed to use ref_cursors.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g Upgrade – Help needed for some PL/SQL errors

PrateekSingh — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 19:51:22 +0000

We are doing a Database server upgrade from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g. As a part of this upgrade activity, I got in total three different PL-SQL Errors for which I had to make code changes in the database server.

These errors were:
(1) PLS-00371: at most one declaration for “string” is permitted.
(2) PLS-00593: default value of parameter “string”
in body must match that of spec.
(3) PLS-00216: NUMBER precision constraint must be in range (1 .. 38)

In Oracle 9i Database server version we were not getting these errors.

I wanted to be sure that these errors are because of the version upgrade and there is no other cause. I tried to search on google for PLS-00371 errors. I got instances where other developers have got the same error during migration. But there is no satisfactory explanation which drills down the cause to internals of version upgrade. I understand that PLS-00371 and PLS-00593 are most probably because of PL/SQL compiler change in the Oracle 10g and Oracle 9i version. However, I want to understand what exactly is the change that has caused these errors. It would be very helpful for me if you can explain one or all of these errors as an outcome of version upgrade.
