Re: The Connect role

Connect role <snip>
Includes the following system privileges: ALTER SESSION, CREATE CLUSTER, CREATE DATABASE LINK, CREATE SEQUENCE, CREATE SESSION, CREATE SYNONYM, CREATE TABLE, CREATE VIEW. <unsnip>  

The problem is probably to do with the quotas the user has been granted on the
tablespaces.
Try issuing:
select tablespace_name, max_bytes
from dba_ts_quotas
where username = 'GUEST';

If the result is <>0 then
ALTER USER GUEST QUOTA 0 K
    ON <Tablespace_name>
should solve the problem.

HTH.
