Before we get into remediate process for issues related to Deployment Packager operation, it is important to understand the underlying tasks performed by this operation.

It is important to remember that Deployment Packager is executed only on the reference database (the first database in your Datical DB project). You do not run Deployment Packager against higher level or shared database environments. Therefore, it should be noted that in order to create changesets, Deployment Packager will be executed against only the reference or development database. After that, you will only perform Deploy operation to deploy changesets to all of the databases in the Datical DB project.

Under the hood, Deployment Packager performs a series of tasks depending on the type of scripts provided. Issues with Deployment Packager usually have to do with its ability to complete these underlying tasks. Some of these tasks invoke database client tools and errors in those tools propagate up as Deployment Packager errors. Examine the Deployment Packager log for errors. If the Deployment Packager was invoked via Command Line Interface (e.g., via a build tool), then the Deployment Packager output would be in stdout, so check the job log for errors.

When Deployment Packager fails, examine the stdout available in Jenkins' Console Output which is available by clicking on the red circle .

Note: You can also look at "daticaldb.log" in the Datical DB project directory on the Jenkins node.

Sample errors in Deployment Packager output:

These errors are Oracle errors and should be investigated by your Oracle DBA.
