When the Spotfire Database have been treated with export and import, for e.g. restoring a backup or moving the environment elsewhere (testing, validation etc), the procedures can become invalid.
The reason for this is that Oracle compiles each procedure during the import and their dependencies might be imported afterwards.
There is no way of controlling the order the objects are exported (if the export is done in one job), and the import is done in the order objects appear in the dmp file.
Connected to the oracle database with sysdba right you can list any invalid objects:
SELECT owner, object_type, object_name, status FROM dba_objects WHERE status = 'INVALID' and owner = 'SPOTFIRESCHEMAOWNER' ORDER BY owner, object_type, object_name;
This can be the view of the procedure when you look at them in SQL Developer (logged in as SpotfireSchemaOwner).
Normally you see
ORA-06550 PL/SQL errors when invalid procedures are used, and these procedures are used for several activities in Spotfire. But issues might not be obvious immediately.
