The only one I've personally run into in production is: Application worked on the old version of Oracle, fails on the new, turns out it uses a feature that has been removed and the application vendor doesn't have a version of their software that works with the current of Oracle or is no longer in business so you're stuck and the department won't or cannot replace the application.
