  symptom: 
  1> Compiling PL/SQL fails 
  2> ORA-06550: line %s, column %s:\n%s 
  3> PLS-00801: internal error [%s] 
  4> PLS-00801: internal Error [74901]   
  change: 
  NOTE ROLE: To reproduce: declare col number(2.0); begin null; end;   
  cause: 
  Incorrectly using a '.' instead of a ',' as a DECIMAL separator in the TYPE 
  declaration of the PL/SQL code leads to this error. For example: as var1 
  NUMBER (10.0); instead of var1 NUMBER (10,0);   
  Bug:
  #637990
  PLS-801[74901] OCCURRED WHEN USED NUMBER(2.0) 
  INSTEAD OF NUMBER (2,0)  
  fix: 
  This is still not fixed in PL/SQL Workaround: Change '.' to ',' and recompile 
  the package. Example: From: var1 NUMBER (10.0); To: var1 NUMBER (10,0);

  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, DBMS_SQL  
  symptom: 
  1> Calling PROCEDURE in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE fails 
  2> ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement   
  cause: 
  When using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE (native dynamic SQL), the SQL server expects 
  a valid SQL statement. A PROCEDURE/FUNCTION call on its own is not a valid 
  SQL statement (because it is PL/SQL), so the SQL server does not understand 
  the statement. The SQL server can process a PL/SQL block, however.   
  fix: 
  Embed the call to the PROCEDURE in an anonymous block - i.e. put BEGIN ... 
  END around it - and submit the anonymous block instead 
  e.g. 
  CREATE OR REPLACE procedure exec_proc1 (arg1 number, arg2 varchar2) 
  IS 
  BEGIN 
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN proc1('||arg1||', '||arg2||'); END;'; 
  END;   
  or   
  CREATE OR REPLACE procedure exec_proc1 (arg1 number, arg2 varchar2) 
  IS 
  plsql_block := 'BEGIN proc1('||arg1||', '||arg2||'); END;'; 
  BEGIN 
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE plsql_block USING 7788, 500; 
  END;

  How to verify the enabled roles for a session within a trigger or 
  PL/SQL routine  
  fact: 
  Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition
  PL/SQL
  DBMS_SESSION  
  fix: 
  The view 'session_roles' lists the roles that are currently enabled to the user.
  When a PL/SQL routine, like a trigger, is executed, it is executed as the owner 
  of the routine. Therefor querying the 'session_roles' view within a PL/SQL 
  routine will not give the information of the executing user session.  
  It is not possible to retrieve a list of enabled roles for a session within a 
  PL/SQL routine. By using the DBMS_SESSION.IS_ROLE_ENABLED it is possible to 
  check whether a role is enabled or not.  
  Example: 
  create or replace procedure ptst is
  begin
  if dbms_session.is_role_enabled('TEST') then
  dbms_output.put_line ('Role is enabled');
  else
  dbms_output.put_line ('Role is NOT enabled');
  end if;
  end;

  compatible = 8.0.5
  
  symptom: 
  1> Executing remote packaged PROCEDURE fails
  2> PLS-00801: internal error [%s]
  3> internal error [1407]
  4> No local or remote trace files generated
  
  cause: 
  The cause of this problem is still undetermined.
  
  fix: 
  Verify the version of the remote database and set the COMPATIBLE parameter of 
  the remote database as close as possible to that of the local database. 
  
  In this case setting compatible initSID.ora parameter to 8.1.6 from 8.0.5 on 
  remote site solved the problem.

  symptom: 
  The following error occurs while inserting empty blob to return blob locators.
  
  ORA-22990: lob locator cannot span transaction 
  
  cause: 
  The above sql statements were executed within a for loop. 
  After each fetch a call to dbms_lob.copy is made followed by commit within the loop. 
  Fetching accross commits is not allowed since it results to cursor invalidation 
  because the a COMMIT release any locks held by the session. 
  
  From Oracle 8 Server Application Developer's Guide, Chapter 6, Large Objects: 
  The insert statement automatically starts a transaction and locks the row. 
  
  Once it has occurred, the locator may not be used outside the current 
  transaction, since a COMMIT release any locks. 
  Therefore any fetch after the lock will result in ORA-22990: LOB locators 
  cannot span transactions. 
  
  fix: 
  It is not advisable to use a COMMIT inside a loop. Use commit after the 
  loop ends.

  ORA-01001 results
  
  symptom: 
  Preparing a cursor in a function, but executing it in another
  1>. Prepare cursor in a function 
  2>. A function is called that opens the cursor and does a fetch.
  3>. The function in step 2 is called again to do another fetch 
  and ORA-01001 results
  
  cause: 
  What happened is that between calls to the function that does 
  the fetch the cursor cache is overwritten and the prepared 
  statement is being lost. 
  
  Workaround:
  put the prepare, open, and fetch statements in one function.
  
  fact: 
  JDBC OCI , pre-compiler 
  ORA-01001: maximum open cursors exceeded
  
  symptom: 
  The error message “ORA-01001: maximum open cursors exceeded”
  returned in a JDBC connection, even though the OPEN_CURSOR 
  (default = 50) has been increased.
  
  cause: 
  The number of cursors one client can open at a time on a connection
  is limited (50 is the default value). 
  If you don't close these cursors explicitly, you will get this error 
  eventually. Simply increasing the "OPEN_CURSORS" limit can help 
  you avoid the problem for a while, but that just hides the problem, not 
  solve it.
  
  Workaround:
  You do need to explicitly close the statement, by using the method 
  stmt.close() in order to close and freeup the cursors. It is your responsibility 
  to explicitly close out cursors that you no longer need. 查看本文来源
