I did open SR with Oracle support but wanted to get any feed back from more knowledgeable group.

Thanks

Re: DBMS_STATS and ORA-01422

It definitely looks like a dictionary problem. I suggest you open a service requrest with Oracle.

Hi Gurus,

Recently I migrated one database from 9.2.0.8 to 10.2.0.3 on Solaris 9
(this is test database, copy of production)

Strangely when I tried to update stats on one of the partitioned tables I receive following error:

SQL> exec DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS
(ownname=>'sysadm',tabname=>'PS_JRNL_LN',estimate_percent=>25,,cascade=>TRUE);

BEGIN DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS
(ownname=>'sysadm',tabname=>'PS_JRNL_LN',estimate_percent=>25,,cascade=>TRUE);
END; *
ERROR at line 1:

ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows 
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13182 
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13202 
ORA-06512: at line 1 

I checked dual and there is only one row in dual table.

When I run same gather_stats on exact copy of production database still in 9.2.0.8 it ran without any problem.

Has any one encountered this?

One thing I noticed:
Select count(*) from dba_objects where object_name='PS_JRNL_LN' returns 13 rows
while
select count(*) from sys.obj$ where name='PS_JRNL_LN' returns 14 rows.

Additional row in obj$ table has type#=10 which is "NON_EXISTENT" according to comment in DBA_OBJECTS view text.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Mayen Shah
