Re: Designer 6i: Broadcast server problems

[Quoted] I think you must install Designer 6i Rel. 2 (Version 6.5.40.2.0) because there is a
 Server bug 1396675 on Oracle 8.1.7 with 6i.

Also you can edit and
find this in package cioue_element_type

 delete from sdd_reserved_names

 where (rn_res_name, rn_type) in ((upper(view_name), 'VIEW')
                                 ,(upper(pack_name), 'PACKAGE')
                                 ,(upper(pack_name), 'PACKAGE BODY'));

and replace it with

    view_name := upper(view_name);
    pack_name := upper(pack_name);
    app_view_name := upper(app_view_name);

• Remove Reserved Names entry and comment delete from sdd_reserved_names where (rn_res_name = view_name and rn_type = 'VIEW') or (rn_res_name = pack_name and rn_type = 'PACKAGE') or (rn_res_name = pack_name and rn_type = 'PACKAGE BODY');

This worked for me.
