Could you execute the following from sql prompt, copy and paste the output here.

sql> set role none
sql> CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE tt_Local(ID VarChar2(38)) ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS;


Least said, why do you want to create objects on the fly. Very very bad design. If possible by all means avoid it.

1/ You must have the CREATE TABLE privilege granted to you DIRECTLY not via a role

2/ You must NOT execute a query inside "execute immediate" unless it is dynamic, your insert is static

3/ you must NOT create table on the fly, your GTT MUST be created before. This is Oracle not Sybase

yes , You are right . I created the table seperately (not at run time) and the issue is resolved.

Thanks

Actually thats not the issue....(as yours is a privilege issue)
Its a bad design...If you create that as run time (with the same name) definately you will get

ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

To be fair the insert has to be dynamic (in this instance) because the create table is. I would have just skipped to point 3.

Plus doing everything dynamically doesn't do the performance any good.

@priyasinha396 - I don't know why you're using a temp table but I seriously doubt you need it. Real uses for temp tables in oracle is exceedingly rare. We don't need them to improve performance like some other DBs, ususally they just make performance worse. See if you can do whatever you're doing without the temp table. It'll probably be easier to code and will perform better.

I should logically swap point 2 and 3, but I wanted to put the points in the order of how important it is (imo).
