Re: Error on Table Creation ORA-01658

Miquel,

"oerr" a unix utility for looking up Oracle error msg on my HP indicates:

oerr ora 1658 01658, 00000, "unable to create INITIAL extent for segment in tablespace %s"

// *Cause:  Failed to find sufficient contiguous space to allocate INITIAL 
//          extent for segment being created.
// *Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE to add additional space to
the    
//          tablespace or retry with a smaller value for INITIAL

Hope this helps.
