style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">   I have a need to create a synonym in a schema (A)   for a table that is another schema (B). This is no problem. However, the table   in question is a "parent" table and I cannot create the "references"   constraint from the "child" to the "parent" when the "parent" is a synonym.   When I attempt to do so I get an ORA-1031 error (Insufficient   Privileges).
   
  Is this a known limitation of synonyms or am I   missing something here? I find the 1031 error a strange one to receive if this   a limitation of synonyms--schema A has DBA role granted to it so the problem   shouldn't be one of permissions. Received on Tue Apr 03 2001 - 07:57:39 CDT
