DRG-10758/FILE_ACCESS_ROLE question

Question

I set the file access role as follows
begin
ctx_adm.set_parameter('FILE_ACCESS_ROLE','WHITEHAT');
end;
The role is granted to the index owner.
I get the following error when I try to create the index.
CREATE INDEX filey_imt_idx on filey(filename) indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('datastore filey_datastore')
ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-20000: interMedia Text error:
DRG-10758: index owner does not have the privilege to use this preference
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.DRUE", line 126
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.TEXTINDEXMETHODS", line 78
ORA-06512: at line 1
The interesting thing is the explanation for DRG-10758
Cause: index owner does not have the role defined in FILE_DATASTORE_ROLE
FILE_DATASTORE_ROLE is not a valid parameter.
The index creation works when FILE_ACCESS_ROLE is not set.
any ideas?

Hi,
for executing that statement you need to be SYS. So connect as SYS. If you don't know how, then you need to contact your DBA.
If you can access the server and under user oracle, then also
sqlplus / as sysdbacan work. Otherwise you need the password for SYS.
