Question

I am logged in as a user other than “dbdesign”. While I am logged in, the following code works in my program (anonymous procedure):

BEGIN
  dbdesign.pkg_developer_utils.create_schema_synonyms('MYSCHEMA');
END;

The following code does not work:

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE regenerate_synonyms AS
BEGIN
  dbdesign.pkg_developer_utils.create_schema_synonyms('MYSCHEMA');
END;

It gives me the following error:

PLS-00201: identifier ‘DBDESIGN.PKG_DEVELOPER_UTILS’ must be declared

Why does this code work in an anonymous procedure, but give this error in a stored one?

Answer 1

It would appear to be a typo in your code. The message says:

DBDESIGN_PKG_DEVELOPER_UTILS

and not

DBDESIGN.PKG_DEVELOPER_UTILS
