The trigger is invalid and re-validation failed

Question

Here is the code that I use to create the table, sequence and trigger

DROP TABLE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus;

-- 
-- TABLE: CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus 
--

CREATE TABLE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus(
    Id             NUMBER(38, 0)    NOT NULL,
    ShortName      NUMBER(38, 0)    NOT NULL,
    Description    NUMBER(38, 0)    NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT PK_ExtDL_JobStatus PRIMARY KEY (Id)
)
;



Declare NumOfSequences NUMBER :=0;
Begin
  Select COUNT(*)
  INTO NumOfSequences
  FROM All_Sequences
  WHERE 1=1
    And upper (Sequence_Owner) = upper ('CDR')
    And upper (Sequence_Name) = upper ('ExtDL_JobStatus_Seq');
  If NumOfSequences > 0 Then
    Execute IMMEDIATE 'DROP SEQUENCE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_Seq';
  End If;
End;
/
CREATE SEQUENCE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_Seq
    INCREMENT BY 1
    START WITH 1
    NOMAXVALUE 
    NOMINVALUE 
;
/

Declare NumOfTriggers NUMBER :=0;
Begin
  SELECT COUNT(*)
  INTO NumOfTriggers
  FROM All_Triggers
  WHERE 1=1
    And upper (Owner) = upper ('CDR')
    And upper (Trigger_Name) = upper ('ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg');
  If NumOfTriggers > 0 Then
    Execute IMMEDIATE 'DROP SEQUENCE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg';
  End If;
End;
/
CREATE TRIGGER CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg
BEFORE INSERT
ON CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus
    FOR EACH ROW
    WHEN (new.Id IS NULL)
    BEGIN
        SELECT ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg.nextval into :new.Id from dual;
    END;


/
INSERT INTO ExtDL_JobStatus (Id, ShortName, Description) Values (0, 'Success', 'Fail')
/
SELECT * FROM ExtDL_JobStatus

When I execute the code, I get the following output

DROP TABLE CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus succeeded.
CREATE TABLE succeeded.
anonymous block completed
CREATE SEQUENCE succeeded.
anonymous block completed
Warning: execution completed with warning
TRIGGER CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg Compiled.

*Cause:    A trigger was attempted to be retrieved for execution and was
           found to be invalid.  This also means that compilation/authorization
           failed for the trigger.
*Action:   Options are to resolve the compilation/authorization errors,
           disable the trigger, or drop the trigger.

What makes my trigger invalid?

Answer 1

Warning: execution completed with warning TRIGGER CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg Compiled.

The trigger compilation failed here.

sql> CREATE TRIGGER ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg
  2  BEFORE INSERT
  3  ON ExtDL_JobStatus
  4      FOR EACH ROW
  5      WHEN (new.Id IS NULL)
  6      BEGIN
  7          SELECT ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg.nextval into :new.Id from dual;
  8      END;
  9  /

Warning: Trigger created with compilation errors.

The problem is that your code uses ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg , and the sequence you created uses ExtDL_JobStatus_Seq .

, script, () , // creint.

SHOW ERRORS;

, . , script.

Answer 2

: ExtDL_JobStatus_Seq, ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg.nextval.

, PL/SQL (, ..). :

CREATE TRIGGER CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg 
BEFORE INSERT 
ON CDR.ExtDL_JobStatus 
    FOR EACH ROW 
    WHEN (new.Id IS NULL) 
    BEGIN 
        SELECT ExtDL_JobStatus_SeqTrg.nextval into :new.Id from dual; 
    END; 
/

Answer 3

In addition to everything that was mentioned earlier, there are two more typos / errors:

• The anonymous PL / SQL block that is trying to reset the trigger actually says DROP SEQUENCE.
• The insert statement attempts to insert character strings into the ShortName and Description columns, which are defined as NUMBER (38, 0).
