Hi Walter,

I believe this is a bug. Check Metalink. I've seen this on 8.1.6 on HP/UX 11.0 before. It also ensured that DBMS_UTILITY.COMPILE_SCHEMA didn't work. It wouldn't suprise me if the bug was not fixed in 8.1.7. Our solution was to run a brute-force compilation script that didn't use the dependencies table. You have to run it 3-4 times, but in the end it took less time than waiting for DBMS_UTILITY when it did work.

What's it like working for Ed's Army?
