Insufficient Privilage?

Hi all, I have some questions regarding the system privilege. Also I would like to thank you for your help in advance.
In environment 1, I have a Win2k Sever and a Oracle 9i. I put my NT login under the DBA group in NT security. However, I still cannot login as SYSDBA, even I am using system database user.
In a similar environment 2, I have an UNIX and a Oracle 9i. In this case, I use my desktop's OEM to do the admin work on the UNIX db. With a similar problem, I cannot login as SYSDBA. But I don't need to login the UNIX system before, so how should I do to gain the SYSDBA role? Does it relate to the system privilege?
Finally, may I shut down the system privilege?
Thank you all of you
Yours sincerely,
Eddie

"Create directory" is only for directories where the database is installed. It's essentially a server-side concept. So, if your database is installed on a machine called myDBserver, you can only create directories on the file system that myDBserver has access to. You also need to be logged-in as system to do this, then grant read and/or write to the schemas that need access to the directory.

  • The installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory.

    I have just downloaded itunes 9, it installs until I get the following error message
    the installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory.
    C:progrem.files\itunes\itunes.resouces\da.lpro\DevicePrefsPodcasts.nb
    installation can't continue, log on as an administrator
    I have tried system restore but that doesn't seem to take me back to my old itunes.
    thanks for any help

    the installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory. C:progrem.files\itunes\itunes.resouces\da.lpro\DevicePrefsPodcasts.nb
    That one could be disk/file damage, b.
    Try running a chkdsk over your C drive. There's instructions and a guided help in the following Microsoft document:
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Changing The File Name of The Fonts Folder - Insufficient Privilages?

    I am having trouble installing a program and need to change the name of the folder Library/Fonts, it says i dont have sufficient privilages but i am the onl user on the computer, can someone help?
    I understand that it shouldnt be changed but it will be changed back immediately after the programs installed... before anyone says

    Welcome srgrange...
    I wouldn't be changing the name of that folder if I were you.
    What application are you trying to install ?
    I've not found an app asking for that kind of change ...

  • Insufficient Privilages on restore

    Hi,
    After having Drive Genius skillfully screw a defrag of my PB, I'm having to restore various folders with Time Machine. I've run into a problem. I'm trying to restore the Printers folder in the system library folder, but it won't let me as it says I don't have sufficient privilages. Any ideas how to get around this?
    Many thanks.

    that's probably because you don't have write privileges the directory they live in.
    If you are having to restore various system folders why don't you do full system restore from TM? That would probably produce better results.
    If you insist on doing it by hand, activate the root user and login as root. you should be able to do TM restore of system folders from root account.
    to activate root, start Directory Utility, unlock the lock at the bottom and go to
    Edit menu->activate root. Give root a password, log out (or you might have to restart), choose "Other" from login window and log in as root.

  • Sys account insufficient privilages

    Hi
    I am have a strange problem with oracle 10g r2.
    when i connect to sys account using the following credentials it connects
    conn sys/password as sysdba
    but when i connect with follow it fails
    conn sys/password@orcl as sysdba
    ERROR:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    when is look at remote_login_password file its exclusive so no error
    remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
    please help me in this problem. this is a fresh installment on linux 4as
    regards
    Nick

    Just to be even clearer...
    Your password file was named orapworcl.
    Your ORACLE_SID is evidently set to ORCL
    On Windows, you'd have gotten away with it, because orcl is the same thing as ORCL. But on any other OS you care to mention these days, case sensitivity means ORCL<>orcl, and hence a SID of ORCL demands that your init.ora/spfile and your password file also contain within them the name ORCL, in upper case.

  • Insufficient privilages in creating view

    HI,
    when I m trying to create a view in my system it gives me an error as insufficient privileges. I dont why ????
    create or replace view vw_emp as
    select t.empno vw_id, t.ename, t.job, t.sal from emp t;
    Details of error
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    i believe i m the admin on my system. how do i grant privileges to create a view to myself or any other alternative....

    If you log in as a privileged user (i.e. SYSTEM), you would need to
    GRANT CREATE VIEW TO scottto give Scott permission to create a view.
    As for seeing whether you have that privilege, the simplest solution is to query the SESSION_PRIVS view while logged in as Scott.
    SELECT *
      FROM session_privs;Does that show that you have the CREATE VIEW privilege?

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • Insufficient Priviliages on Apple Mobile Devices to install itunes

    Hi,
    Hmm ok for me on iphone 1st click on post link does nothing but underline it, 2nd click then opens it - annoying but it works.
    On ipad, no amoint of clicking opens the link but if you keep your finger on the link and wait for the popup and then click open it does go in.
    So both are usable - just not that friendly.
    Maybe next iOS version will update safari and fix this. Closing question for now.

    As others already mentioned, you need to be granted privilege with grant option. And it is very logical. Assume you lend me your car and say "you can drive it". It does not mean I can let any of my friends drive it, does it? However, it is different story if you lend me your car and say "you can drive it or/and let any of your friends drive it". And that is what with grant option does (altghough there are different applications too).
