ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04052: An error occurred while searching for the remote object

ORA-00604: An error occurred in level 1 recursive SQL
ORA-12840: Can not access a remote table after a load transaction
Direct / parallel for insertion

Cause: Within a transaction, an attempt was made to perform distributed access after a PDML
 or insert direct statement had been issued.

Action: Commit/rollback the PDML transaction first, and then perform the distributed access, 
or perform the distributed access before the first PDML statement in the transaction.

Can not access a remote table after a load transaction Direct / parallel for insertion

This ORA-12840 errors are related with the APPEND hint.

Although parallel_max_servers=0, there was an append hint used in an insert statement called from a trigger

To solve this error, Remove /*+ APPEND*/ in any insert statements in the package or any trigger that gets executed when the package / procedure gets called.
