Index not created but it still reserved space on the disk

Hi all,
I have got a problem with creating an index. I am using oracle 10.2 DB on Windows 2003 Server.
There are several jobs that are running at night to collect data from another database. Therefor I am always dropping the indices (for faster inserts, because the tables are really big) and after the data is loaded I am recreating the indices.
Now when reacreating one of the index it gave me an error: ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 8192 in tablespace CEXPLUS
which I interpreted that there is no space left in tablespace CEXPLUS. I figured out on which disk the tablespace is saved. At that time I still had 55,5 MB free space left. Then I deleted some files and got 600 MB free space. Afterwards I created the index again. But after 1h or so there was still no index and now I only got 712 KB free space.
Where is the free space if the index was not created and how can I get it back?
How can I figure out, how much space I will need for the index?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Denise

Hi,
I used this query (I am not sure whether it is correct):
SELECT tablespace_name, (sum(bytes)/1024)/1024 mb
from dba_free_space
group by tablespace_name
and it says for the tablespace CEXPLUS (in which I want to create the failed index) there is still 8074 MB left. But I know that on the server itself the harddisk has got 712 KB free space. How can that be? And still my question, before I created the failed index I had 600 MB free space? How can I get it back?
What about the sort segment? Is ist still used by the failed index? Or is it used by other transactions, so meaning that it is overwritten? And if I restart the database will the space it had taken be free again, meaning will I then have back my 600 MB?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Denise

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - click on 'Manage your Account', then in the first pane which opens you will see your Apple ID with an 'Edit' link to the right of it. Click that and you should be able to change the ID to your email address. Then you can sign in with it in System Preferences>iCloud to open an iCloud account and create a new @icloud.com address.
    If you are not inextricably wedded to using your existing ID you can skip this step: just follow the method described by IMP68 here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
    this will enable you to create an ID which is also the @Icloud.com address which you choose. (You can still sign into iTunes with the old ID if you want to - there is no connection between the two.)

    Go to iforgot.apple.com and type in your Apple ID, then click 'Next'.

    You'll be able to choose one of two methods to reset your password, either E-Mail Authentication or Answer Security Questions.
    If neither method works, then go to https://getsupport.apple.com

    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.

    No. With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    For the iPhone issue ask in the iPhone forum.

  • My speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up

    my speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article.
    2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    3. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    4. Reset the NVRAM.
    5. Reset the SMC.
    6. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
    7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

    A small update to this issue....
    I have been trawling the forums to find an answer but to no avail...
    And... I've tried exporting and bouncing individual stems and the full session, either by muting all bar the stem or soloing the stem.....and still nothing.
    Same problems.....everything is audible in audition but nothing plays on playback.
    Since the 'prelisten' channel strip is Solo safe this would indicate that you have a track or channel strip soloed somewhere else, out of sight. Are the Mute buttons on your channel strips blinking?

  • My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
    Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

  • BootCamp Assistant Error : Your bootable USB drive could not be created. "An error occurred while formatting the disk."

    I have a Windows 7 Ultimate .iso file saved onto a "Mac OS Extended (Journal)" formatted USB flash drive. I am trying to install it with BootCamp Assistant and I keep getting the error message : Your bootable USB drive could not be created. "An error occurred while formatting the disk."
    I have previously installed Windows 7 on my Mac (and it worked flawlessly - same .iso file), but I uninstalled it because I didn't partition enough space on my hard drive. I have used several flash drive to try and install and none have worked.
    Some help would be greatly appreciated.

  • An error occurred while executing batch. Error message is: There is not enough space on the disk.

    Hello all,
    I execute a T-SQL query, which will retrieve large amount of data, however, I get an error message after a few seconde.
    The error message is :
    An error occurred while executing batch. Error message is: There is not enough space on the disk.
    Who can tell me the reason and waht's the steps to solve this issue ?
    Really thanks.
    Thanks, Jed deng

    The other two posters suggested that the problem with tempdb or you data/log files. This is not the case here. The error message relates to the client-side of things. Apparently SSMS needs to store data on disk. I don't recall exactly when this happens,
    but I seem to recall that the files appear in you %TEMP% directory.
    I would suggest that your correct action is to clean up the disk. Not the least there may be a lot of junk in your %TEMP% and %TMP% directories.

    Thanks Erland, I was not aware of this earlier. Now, I am able to find out one of the resons for slowness of SSMS gird. Also, I have just checked it with process monitor, SSMS is creating tmp%.tmp files..

    What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
    If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
    Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
                     GarageBand 6.0.5
    GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system.  But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio.  Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.
