| I can't seem to get the logminer started. I tried following the example in
| the docs:
|
| SQL> execute dbms_logmnr.start_logmnr( -
| > starttime => '11-Feb-2005 18:00:00', -
| > endtime => '13-Feb-2005 02:00:00', -
| > options => dbms_logmnr.dict_from_online_catalog + -
| > dbms_logmnr.continuous_mine) ;
| BEGIN dbms_logmnr.start_logmnr( starttime => '11-Feb-2005 18:00:00',
| endtime =
| > '13-Feb-2005 02:00:00', options => dbms_logmnr.dict_from_online_catalog +
| db
| ms_logmnr.continuous_mine) ; END;
|
|
| *
| ERROR at line 1:
| ORA-06550: line 1, column 119:
| PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_LOGMNR.DICT_FROM_ONLINE_CATALOG' must be
| declared
| ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:

|
| and:
|
| SQL> execute dbms_logmnr.start_logmnr();
| BEGIN dbms_logmnr.start_logmnr(); END;
|

| ERROR at line 1:

| PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR' must be declared

|
| What is supposed to declare those identifiers?
|

You must have execute privilege on dbms_logmnr. Moreover, iirc, "dbms_logmnr.dict_from_online_catalog" is 9i not 8i.

Have a look at:
"Using LogMiner to Analyze Online and Archived Redo Logs" in Administrator's Guide: http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/server.817/a76956/archredo.htm#12680 DBMS_LOGMNR and DBMS_LOGMNR_D packages in "Supplied PL/SQL Packages Reference": http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/appdev.817/a76936/dbms_log.htm http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/appdev.817/a76936/dbms_loa.htm
