Cannot Drop Table that Shows in dba_tables

In my IDE I see two tables that I no longer need. I created them as a test to see the difference between LOGGING vs NOLOGGING. Now I want to drop the tables.
I issue the command drop table customers_no_logging.
The system responds with ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.
However, select table_name from dba_tables returns the table names in question.
Even in sqlplus I get the same result:
SQL> select table_name from dba_tables where owner = 'RUB';
TABLE_NAME
CUSTOMERS
INV_ITEM_MASTER
INV_SITE
CUSTOMERS_w_log
CUSTOMERS_no_log
5 rows selected.
SQL> drop table CUSTOMERS_no_log;
drop table CUSTOMERS_no_log
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
How can I drop these tables?
Thanks,
Gregory

I was connected as RUB in my IDE and SYS in SQLPlus.
I have connected as RUB in SQLPlus and tried
SQL> drop table "RUB.CUSTOMERS_no_log";
drop table "RUB.CUSTOMERS_no_log"
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
Maybe I need to stop and restart the DB?

ORA-20123 is a localized/customized error code & message; therefore any solution depends upon what is unique inside your DB now.
I suspect that some sort of TRIGGER exists, which throws posted error, but this is just idle speculation on my part.

Cannot drop table

Versions are Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 and SQL Developer 4.0.0.12 on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1.
Hi
I'm following the CBT Nuggets SQL Fundementals training (video #11) and cannot drop a table I have just created. The command executed and error are:
drop table newprods;
Error starting at line : 1 in command -
drop table newprods
Error report -
SQL Error: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-20000: Cannot drop object
ORA-06512: at line 2
00604. 00000 - "error occurred at recursive SQL level %s"
*Cause:    An error occurred while processing a recursive SQL statement
           (a statement applying to internal dictionary tables).
*Action:   If the situation described in the next error on the stack
           can be corrected, do so; otherwise contact Oracle Support.
As the HR user I created two tables and created a FK constraint between them. After truncating the table with this FK, I am unable to drop it. Even if I remove the FK, the error is the same. Issing the command in SQL*Plus gives the same error.
This is the first time I have created any tables since installing Oracle on this machine and is my first attempt at dropping a table. I have not created any sequences, triggers or views based on these newly created tables.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers

Cannot Drop table with lower case name

Hi,
One of my developer created a table through application in oracle 10g R2,
when I list tables
select * from tab;
the table name is shown in lower case or Initcap.
I cannot drop or manipulate that table.
How can I drop that table(s)?
Thanks & Regards,
Fahim

use the same case what your table has used and put double quotes on both sides for example if your table is lower case use like:
DROP TABLE "your_table";HTH

I cannot "drop table"

Hi,
I've table BP:
CREATE TABLE BP (
BV_ID VARCHAR2 (32) DEFAULT NULL NOT NULL,
BP_ID VARCHAR2 (32) DEFAULT NULL NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT BP_PK
PRIMARY KEY ( BV_ID, BP_ID )
BP has more 100 records:
Now I'd like to drop table BP:
drop table BP;
ORA-02449: unique/primary keys in table referenced by foreign keys
ALTER TABLE BP DISABLE CONSTRAINT BP_PK;
ORA-02297: cannot disable constraint (BP_PK) - dependencies exist
I tried disable all constraints with:
select 'alter table '||table_name||' disable constraints '||constraint_name||';'
from user_cons_columns
where column_name='BV_ID'
or column_name='BP_ID'
but when I try drop table BP;
ORA-02449: unique/primary keys in table referenced by foreign keys
also truncate table BP:
ORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys
How can I drop table BP and disable all referenced by enabled foreign keys on table BP?
Thanks!

Or you could disable the foreign key constraint refering to primary key on the table and then drop the PK and then drop the table

Process Chains! is there a table that shows how long a PC works?

hi all
I've got many process chains in my system, i need their statistical data about how long they keep working once a day,
so, do you know a table that keeps the data i need?

Checkboxes in table that show value

Hello,
I have a series of questions that I want the user to be able to answer yes or no by selecting or deselecting a checkbox. I have this working fine now, except when it is loaded again all the checkboxes are unchecked, even though some of my values are 'true'.
I've tried setting the 'selected' property on the checkbox to a binding of the value in the table, as #{row.answer}, but that did nothing. I got it to work by using a #{row.answer == 'true'}, but then the checkbox became read only, which destroys the purpose.
Lastly, I tried having two separate checkboxes, one that was selected by default and one that was unselected, then I set the render property to #{row.answer == 'true'} or #{row.answer == false}, respectively. This works the first time I load the page but after I submit or change sections they all show as unselected again.
How can I get the checkboxes to reflect the current value?
Thanks,
-N

Hi Frank,
Thanks, that's exactly what I'm looking for.
I'm getting stuck though and I can't figure out why. I got the sample application to work very easily, but when I try to adapt it to my new project it doesn't show any value for StatusAsBoolean. I tried using the same table even and it remains blank.
Here's what I've done:
Created an entity object for the table.
Created a view object based on the entity and added another attribute (StatusAsBoolean) and uncheck everything, set as type Boolean and Always Updatable.
Created a new class (SettingsViewRowImpl.java) and used the same code as in the class in the sample file.
Created a table on the .jsp page.
One thing I've noticed is that when I make a view object, it creates a SettingsViewImpl.java file. I tried putting the code in there but that crashes the application.
I hope I'm not frustrating you, I've been trying really hard to get this to work and I'm sure it's a really obvious mistake.
Thanks

Regarding table that shows tcode info

Hi all,
Is there a table in SAP which shows all the users who used a particular tcode. Can any one suggest me if there is one like that.
Let me know if any additional information is required.
Thanks in advance.
Ravi Boppana

Hi Ravi,
I think ST03N tcode is used to check the history of transaction usage by the users. I think you will have logs upto 5 months.
You can also go to SUIM and check which users have access to a particular tcode.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Kiran Kandepalli.

New version of Thunderbird has limited the size of the drop-down that shows my open emails. How do I change it back to show all open ones?

There is an icon in the upper right corner that, when clicked on, drops down a list of open emails (i.e. a list of tabs). In the previous version of Thunderbird it would expand (vertically) to list all emails. However now it is a set vertical size and this is terrible and basically defeats the purpose. The purpose of that drop down was so that I did not have to scroll through all my open tabs to find an email. Now I have to do that again, as it is a set vertical size with arrows up and down to scroll through the list. How do I get the old functionality back, or solve my problem of somehow seeing a list of all open tabs? Thanks!

Is there a setting in about:config that controls the length of the alltabs list? I would look for such a thing, and change the setting if it is there. A setting of -1 should make it limitless.

Cannot drop table (error ORA-00054)

I am trying to drop a table but get an "ORA-00054 Resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified". Previously I had created this table and run a join which I cancelled because it was taking too long and obviously not doing what I wanted. Now I can't get rid of the table, even with sysdba privileges and re-starting the machine running the database.
Can anyone help?

It looks like your table got locked. Do you see any locks in your database on this table? I also, suggest you to close or kill the session which was cancled due to long running join condition, as you said in your question.
