10g upgrade_ORA-01031: Insufficient privileges

Hi,
I am upgrating the database from 9.2.0.8 to 10.2 in solaris.
I created new 10g home and copied old parameter file,password file,sqlnet.ora file from old oracle home to new oracle home.(i.e 9i home to 10g home).
My remote_login_password is set to exclusive and sqlnet.ora file contain (TNSNAMES,ONAME,HOSTNAME).
i set oracle_home pointing to new 10g home and try to start the instance and getting below error.
SQL> conn sys/password@hostname as sysdba
Error:
ORA-01031: Instufficient privileges
Is this problem with sqlnet.ora file ? do i have to set the value to (NTS) or (NONE)?
tnsping and listner are up and working fine.
Any one help is appreciate;
Thanks.

On Unix like environments don't set the authentication services, the default behavior is to authenticate a dba user as sysdba with the database privileged group declared at install time, regularly the dba group. If this user belongs to this group and the ORACLE_SID environment variable is declared and pointing to your instance then the user will connect.

Ora-01031: Insufficient Privileges error during 10g install on Suse 9.1

I have tried installing Oracle 10g on Suse 9.1 Professional several times. Although I have tried to carefully follow the instructions in the installation guide, I get the following error.
When the Database Configuration Assistant start during the initial installation, I receive the error -> Ora-01031: Insufficient Privileges.
I created the oinstall and dba group according to the installation guide and made oracle a member with oinstall being the primary group. I also ran -> chown -R oracle:oinstall -> on the Oracle_Base folder to which I want to install the software and oradata files. Similarly, I ran -> chmod -R 775 -> on that folder. During the install I ran the script -> oracle_base/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh -> during the installation when prompted.
I would really appreciate any help that any of you could provide. Thank you so much in advance.
-Daniel

I'm logged in as oracle when I perform the installation but as soon as the database configuration assistant tries to create the database I get this error. I had made oracle a member of oinstall and dba just as it was desribed in the instructions. (At one point I even tried giving oracle root, which didn't seem to work either. I have since reinstalled the OS.)
Thank you for helping me with this!

Hello,
I am new to 10g Express. I am working on Windows XP and I have Oracle App Server and JDev install on my box. I just installed 10g Express. When I try to connect to the database but I get the following error msg:

Can some please help.

Are you saying you can only have one instance of an
Oracle Database install if you are going to use
Oracle XE?Yes.
Oracle Database XE is free for usage with the following limitations:
Supports up to 4GB of user data (in addition to Oracle system data)
Single instance only of Oracle Database XE on any server
May be installed on a multiple CPU server, but only executes on one processor in any server
May be installed on a server with any amount of memory, but will only use up to 1GB RAM of available memory

Also i have check the note which suggest to run the sapdba_role.sql script
But still i am getting the same error.
Also SAPSID services is running with user id sapserviceSID and i change it to SIDadm but no lock.
Request you please help me in this regard.
Sincerely
Paresh

As expected
This is really a very small problem but very weird we suffered so many times. May be we should confirm the authorizations for SAPServiceSID and sidadm users on that windows host, sometimes we miss this part in Windows to check.
Kernel folders should be proper accessible by both of the users. Also, please keep SAP instance service via SAPServiceSID itself.
Just to reconfirm - you restarted SAP and restarted SAP/Oracle services as well, right ?
Thanks

Hi,
Have you create the orapw file in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs with orapwd ?
example :
orapwd file=${ORACLE_HOME}/dbs/orapw${ORACLE_SID} password=change_on_install entries=40
Then the unix user oracle will be create in the orapw${ORACLE_SID} file
after if you want to create another user :
grant sysdba to TOTO; the unix user TOTO could do : connect / as sysdba

Ora-01031 insufficient privileges oracle

Hi to all,
I have installed oracle 10g and created new database. When i try to create the simple view its showing the following error.
ora-01031 insufficient privileges oracle
Note: if i have logged thru admin user, i could able to create the view (system & manager). Though i have provide the grant permission i could not able to create the view, its asking for priviledges.
say create or replace view view_name as select * from employees;
Error: ora-01031 insufficient privileges oracle
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You need the CREATE VIEW system privilege in order to create a view. This is in addition to SELECT privileges on the tables granted directly to you (not to some role you have).

Hi Hemant,
You didn't specify SID, you specified the TNS connection. A SYS (SYSDBA) connection via TNS is a REMOTE_LOGIN that requires additional configuration -- viz REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE.
Please lookup the documentation.
Hemant K Chitaleare sure this is true for connecting on local server?

MCOD and DB13 (ORA-01031: insufficient privileges)

Hello Oracle experts,
I have a problem with a MCOD installation.
Situation:
I have an Oracle Real Application Cluster with two database instances (DE1_1 and DE1_2). In database 1 (DE1_1) there are running two SAP systems (DE1 and DE2).
In database 2 (DE1_2) there are running also two SAP systems (QE1 and QE2).
DE1: SAPSR3     (DE1_1 )
DE2: SAPSR4     (DE1_1)
QE1: SAPSR5     (DE1_2)
QE2: SAPSR6     (DE1_2)
DE1 has been the first installation. The next one´s have been DE2 (SAPSR4), QE1 (SAPSR5) and QE2 (SAPSR6).
Complication:
Transaction DB13 is making trouble in the systems DE2, QE1 and QE2.
There is a pop-up containing this information:
SQL Errorcode: 1.031
SELECT beg, funct, sysid, obj, rc, ende, actid, line FROM sap_sdbah
WHERE beg BETWEEN '20110416000000' AND '20110524235959' AND sysid = 'DE1'
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
I can confirm this popup and reach the DBA Planning Calendar. In the message window there are two error messages:
- An error occurred when processing system DE2
- Function ORA_LOG_READ failed with return code = Other error
Only in the first system (DE1) there are no problems when calling DB13!
Solution:
I already checked the following notes:
Note 134592 - Importing the SAPDBA role (sapdba_role.sql)
--> I executed the script from the note.
Note 834917 - Oracle Database 10g: New database role SAPCONN
--> I executed the script from the note.
And checked this:

Any further suggestions? I don´t know exactly what to configure in a MCOD database. Maybe I forgot one thingu2026
Thank you in advance and kind regards,
Geraldine

Well, it's up to you whether or not you consider that a problem.
And it seems SAP doesn't.
The solution for your ORA-01031 probably will be:
In the schema of Oracle user SAPSR3 there are tables SDBAH and SDBAD. Grant full access to Oracle users SAPSR4/5/6.
But afterwards you may encounter another error message.
You have been warned.
Not sure if this is documented anywhere.
And as I wrote, I doubt that it is worth the effort...
It always seemed SAP did not really like nor support MCOD installations. So by now we haven't any of them left.

I started working on the app not problem with DML but I tried to create a function and found ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Check your REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE . If it is set to NONE, then make sure that SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) in your sqlnet.ora file.
the OS user should be in ORA_DBA group.
Try connecting as SYS,

Most probably this is what the user means :-
1. Installation was done with oracle:oinstall a year back.
oracle as the user and oinstall as the group owner.
At that time sqlplus "/ as sysdba" was working fine for him
2. He probably wanted his setting to be oracle:dba and he issued the following command:-
chown -R oracle:dba $ORACLE_HOME
Now the issue is that he cannot use sqlplus "/ as sysdba" however sqlplus sys/connpass works just fine.
He probably wants to know why his settings are not working now.
Have you read metalink for that error ORA-1031, there is a whole set of document available to diagonise this issue.

Why do I get a "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" in my view creation?

Why do I get a "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" in my view creation for the table which exists in the same schema?
Oracle version is 10g R2.
connect cim/lion;
create table cim.table1 (a number, b varchar2(10));
create view cim.view1 as select * from cim.table1;
create view cim.view1 as select * from cim.table1
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Thanks it works now after giving CREATE VIEW permission to user CIM.
This script was working fine in Oracle 10g R1.
Looks like i need to execute the following GRANT permission explicitly
grant create view to cim;

10g upgrade_ORA-01031: Insufficient privileges
