Could you give more details as to how this binary "is not working properly" (error message, version, ...). If you want to see any invalid PL/SQL stored in the database, take a look at STATUS in DBA_OBJECTS, and look for anything "INVALID" for procedures/functions/packages/package bodies (for OBJECT_TYPE). You can try to compile anything invalid using "alter procedure/function/... compile", and issue a "show errors" if it fails, to see the reason why it wouldn't compile. That's all I can advise, based on the skeleton of info you provided.
