Hi,

In my toad login, I am getting this error message while accessing the tab of SCRIPT.
But other tabs like DATA, COLUMN, SYNONYMS are all working fine.

/foru/forum/fa/13719/0/

What could be the issue.

Regards
M.kRish

Which TOAD version do you use? Is it compatible with Windows 2012 and Oracle 12c?

Yes, it is a new version, should be OK.

What kind of an object is it? A table? A view? Something else (materialized view, perhaps)? As if the current user lacks certain privileges on fetching metadata for that object ... On a second thought, I have no idea whether that's even possible - owner should see everything he owns. Maybe someone more experienced in the DBA field knows what's going on.

Hi,

Yes, that is the VIEW object only.

I hope, the owner of the schema should be able to have all the rights, right?

View's source can be viewed from USER_VIEWS. What do you get when you run

select text from user_views where view_name = 'some view here';

Do you still get the same error message? If so, as if you lack privileges on USER_VIEWS ...

Hi,

When I do run the query of:

select text from user_views where view_name = 'some view here';

It shows (WIDEMEMO).

The problem is simple:

In the same schema, we are able to see scripts of any other objects like DB LINK.

But, while trying for VIEWS, it shows above mentioned error.

OK, if query you ran results in something, then USER_VIEWS is accessible to you. Which means that it might be a TOAD bug. However, as you said in a message #667306 said that "it is working for other schema's well", then it is probably not a TOAD bug.

What would it really be, I have no idea, sorry.

Hi,

Even I couldn't understand,
Because, i tried with creating a new view and tried. But the same error.

create view dummy_test as select * from user_tables;

I suspect about the column description (WIDEMEMO).

Hi,

When I do these query in SQLPLUS with the setting of SET LONG 999, it works fine.
But not in TOAD, is it because the column's character data type.

select text from user_views
where view_name = upper('name');

But the data type of that view shows as below.

Thanks and Regards
Binoj
