thanks. This is interesting. Test role is listed in sessions_roles in 10g, but not in 11g. I did the exact same thing in both databases and both databases are exact copies. Just that one was upgraded.

do I have to do something different in 11g to make the role "active" in some way? I don't have to do anything in 10.1 ? I just granted the role.

in the past if i need a role I would just

create role
grant stuff to role
grant role to user

and then done. I have done it that way for 10 years. On Wed, Jan 20, 2010 at 7:07 PM, GovindanK <gkatteri_at_gawab.com> wrote:
