Cannot bypass the grant privileges popup when creating a new Oracle database agent
Description
After adding the username and password to grant privileges when creating a new Oracle database agent, the popup does not display an error however the "grant privileges username/password" pop up window reappears and cannot be bypassed.
Cause
The ValidatePrivileges script fails with an ORA-06550 Error code. The DBO user - user account could execute DBMS_SQL package (built-in PL/SQL package). This user could not see this package and hence the error "PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_SQL' must be declared" and this results in ORA-06550 error.
DBMS_SQL is a PUBLIC SYNONYM for the DBMS_SQL package which resides on the "SYS" schema. Either the public synonym has been removed or the EXECUTE permission of DBMS_SQL from the "PUBLIC" schema and therefore the foglight user cannot access it.
Resolution
Execute was granted on the DBMS_SQL package to the database agent user and the grant permissions script could then be run.
