Whenever you post provide your 4 digit Oracle version (result of SELECT * FROM V$VERSION).

Always provide the exact error code and message for questions like this.
That error means the user does not have the CREATE VIEW or CREATE ANY VIEW privilege.
The solution is to grant the user CREATE VIEW, for creating views in their own schema, or CREATE ANY VIEW to create views on objects in other schemas.
As SYS 'REVOKE CREATE VIEW FROM SCOTT'. Then as SCOTT

create or replace view a_view as select * from emp;
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

It is a different error when the user does not have SELECT privilege on the underlying table or view
As SYS 'GRANT CREATE VIEW TO SCOTT'. Then as SCOTT
>
create or replace view a_view as select * from hr.employees
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
>
Same if the object does not exist
>
create or replace view a_view as select * from no_such_table
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

But if the table does exist
>
create or replace view a_view as select * from emp;
