Hi all,
I was trying to update my schema on Oracle when I got the following error
message.
"ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment in tablespace
ACCOUNT".
On googling I read that it meant that there was no free extent in the
tablespace system greater than or
equal to the extent size I was asking for.
The ways it suggested me -
1.Add a datafile.
2.Resize the datafile if space available.
Could anyone please explain me the problem more precisely and how to go
about
following either of the above steps (with their merits).
Thanks in advance,
SK
