Hello everybody,

I have created a user for qadb, i gave dba and connect grants to this user initially and after importing its dump i revoked the dba grant.

Now i also want to revoke the INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE privs from this user's tables in its own schema.

By default i think owner has the DML rights in its own schema where the only grant given is CONNECT

Is it possible to do something like

connected as system/pass

REVOKE UPDATE ON MW6QA.REP_SETUP FROM MW6QA;

Error comes
ORA-01927: Cannot REVOKE privileges you did not grant

please guide me as i want all dml ops to be revoked from this qadb user.

A owner can always do what it wants with its objects.
Lock the account and use another one to manage the data.

I cannot lock the accout as it is used by the qa resources for testing,

and at the same time for qa team's issues findings and fixations , the development team also queries its tables.

But i want the development team only to view its tabels, but no DMLs should be given

Then;

1. You should need to create synonyms to other used based on your root user.

2. As per your requirement you can grant/revoke to/from user.

QA should be the image of production, so you should not use this account but an end user one.

In development, there should be no problem to be able to insert/delete/update data.

You have an organization problem not an Oracle one.
Trying to solve an organization issue with a technical solution will just lead to bigger problems.

I have fixed the issue

1. Create another user for development team devtest

2. Granted SELECT privs over all tables of QADB tables to devtest

3. Created views in devtest schema for all tables that map to qadb tables

4. Create synonyms in devtest schema for all functions and procedures that map to functions and procedures of qadb objects

5. Granted execute any procedure to this new devtest user

That is how i am satisfied with the qadb and dev team accessing those same objects with their respective rights.

Thanks everybody for sharing...
