Re: Getting ORA-01732 trying to insert into table (NOT view)

Are you sure the public synonym isn't pointing to an object in some other database thru a link?

Why do I keep getting this error even though this object is not a view??? I am in as the owner of the table, which has the DBA role to boot.

SQL> show user
USER is "FARS_OWNER"
SQL> select owner, object_name, object_type from dba_objects where object_name like '%ALIASTYPE%'; OWNER OBJECT_NAME OBJECT_TYPE

------- -------------- ------------------ 
PUBLIC MFGALIASTYPE SYNONYM
FARS_OWNER MFGALIASTYPE TABLE
FARS_OWNER MFGALIASTYPE_VALUE_PK INDEX SQL> select * from MFGALIASTYPE;

VA I ATTRIBUTE PROMPTNAME SORTORDER

-- - ---------- --------------------------------------- --------- 
T F SN Temic Accelerometer SN 30
T SN Actual Serial Number 10
A F SN Accelerometer SN 40
C F SN Customer SN 20
D F SN Daughter Board SN 60
S F SN Sensor SN 50

6 rows selected.

SQL> insert into MFGALIASTYPE values ('X', 'F', 'SN', 'Test', 80); insert into MFGALIASTYPE values ('X', 'F', 'SN', 'Test', 80)

                * 

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01732: data manipulation operation not legal on this view

BTW, the synonym is for the table so other users can access it without adding the owner's name. I had already tried "insert into FARS_OWNER.MFGALIASTYPE ..." as well, but didn't include that here.

Here's the table definition:
CREATE TABLE "FARS_OWNER"."MFGALIASTYPE" ("VALUE" VARCHAR2(2), "ISDEFAULT" VARCHAR2(1), "ATTRIBUTE" VARCHAR2(45), "PROMPTNAME" VARCHAR2(45) NOT NULL ENABLE, "SORTORDER" NUMBER(2, 0)) PCTFREE 10 PCTUSED 40 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 LOGGING TABLESPACE "TBL_TINY" ; ALTER TABLE "FARS_OWNER"."MFGALIASTYPE" ADD CONSTRAINT "MFGALIASTYPE_VALUE_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("PROMPTNAME") USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 TABLESPACE "USER_DATA" ENABLE NOVALIDATE ; This is using 8.1.5 EE on NT 4 SP6a.
