Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Can't drop Index on empty table - ORA-02429
I'm beginning work on an Oracle table that was created by someone
else. The table has not been used yet, and has no data in it. It has
a unique index on it which is a combination of 4 columns. I'd like to
remove one of the four and replace it with a different column.
I'm unable to alter the index, perhaps because of syntax issues. When I tried to drop the index to start over, I got this message:
ORA-02429: cannot drop index used for enforcement of unique/primary key
What can I do to get around this? Thanks. Received on Mon Jan 07 2002 - 11:54:18 CST
