I had something like this and it was because I had access to the table
through a role,
After reading the manuals for about a week. I found that you can't create a
stored object using rights assigned through a role. Unfortunately Oracle
generates an incorrect message for this.
Try creating a view on the table and you will see the message that ought to
have been given.
In order to create stored procedures you will need the DBA to give rights
directly to your userid.
