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!

ORA-01031: Insufficient privileges error in upgrading from 9.2.0.5 to 10.2

Hi, I am using DBUA to upgrade oracle 9i database to 10g. In step 1 of 7 when I select 9i datagase to upgrade I get ORA-01031: Insufficient privileges error. However, I can connect to the database from 9i as well as 10g using SQLPlus. Any idea what could be going wrong? Thanks. Manish

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,
SQL> sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect / as sysdba

ORA-01031 insufficient privileges error when selecting from a view

OK I think this might be a dumb question but I can't figure it out:
User John has been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not through a database role) to schema FRED.table1;
User John can issue select * from FRED.table1; and it works just fine.
User John has then been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not via a database role) to schema
MARK.view1;
MARK.view1 only selects from FRED.table1. No other tables are in the view1.
Schema MARK can successfully query the views. SELECT * FROM VIEW1 returns results.
I also checked the MARK schema to ensure that it has been granted SELECT on FRED.table1 directly which it has.
Now, when logged into schema John, I try SELECT * FROM MARK.VIEW1; and I get ORA-01031 insufficient privileges error.
I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. If John is granted SELECT ANY TABLE, it of course works but I don't want John to have that powerful priv.
To recap, John has SELECT on both MARK.VIEW1 and the table which VIEW1 selects from (FRED.TABLE1).
John can select from FRED.TABLE1 no problem but receives a privilege error even though John has SELECT on MARK.VIEW1.
Any thoughts?
Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4

Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4Are you certain John has been granted select on Mark.view1 ? In order for that to work Mark would have to have been given select on Fred.table1 WITH GRANT OPTION ... otherwise the grant would fail and then John would not be able to select from the view because the grant was never successfully issued.
Here's a basic test case (which i think conforms to what you've outlined) to get it working.
drop user u1 cascade;
drop user u2 cascade;
drop user u3 cascade;
create user u1 identified by u1;
grant connect, resource to u1;
create user u2 identified by u2;
grant connect, resource, create view to u2;
create user u3 identified by u3;
grant connect, resource to u3;
connect u1/u1@orcl
create table test1 (col1 number);
grant select on test1 to u2 with grant option; --> this is the important part
grant select on test1 to u3;
connect u2/u2@orcl
create view test2 as select * from u1.test1;
grant select on test2 to u3;
connect u3/u3@orcl
select * from u2.test2;

ORA-01031:Insufficient Privileges error when I am trying to use ALERT_QUE

Hi,
I am working on SYS.ALERT.QUE for getting system alerts. I am using ODP in C# for connecting to Oracle database with username = SYSTEM, but when I am trying to enque or deque any message from SYS.ALERT.QUE, its gives an error ORA-01031:Insufficient Privileges. I am not able to understand how to assign SYSDBA privileges to SYSTEM and access ALERT_QUE for getting system alerts. I am posting my code below, plz have a look and let me know whats wrong with the code. I am able to connect to databse using SYSTEM, do I need to use username = SYS for accesing ALERT_QUE of database? Plz let me know whats the solution.
OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection(constr);
// Create queue
OracleAQQueue queue = new OracleAQQueue("sys.alert_que", con);
// Open connection
con.Open();
// Begin txn for enqueue
OracleTransaction txn = con.BeginTransaction();
// Set message type for the queue
queue.MessageType = OracleAQMessageType.Raw;
// Prepare message and RAW payload
OracleAQMessage enqMsg = new OracleAQMessage();
byte[] bytePayload = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 };
enqMsg.Payload = bytePayload;
OracleAQAgent[] agent = new OracleAQAgent[1];

Hi Sudheendra,
Thanks a lot, that worked. Now I am facing one more new issue, when I am trying to deque message from ALERT_QUE which is oracle maintained queue for alerts, I am getting an error "ORA-25215:User data type and queue type do not match". Is there something wrong with my code like Message type, payload and all. I am very new to Oracle database so I don't have idea about this details. Can u plz help me in solving this.
OracleTransaction txn = con.BeginTransaction();
// Set message type for the queue
queue.MessageType = OracleAQMessageType.Raw;
// Prepare message and RAW payload
OracleAQMessage enqMsg = new OracleAQMessage();
byte[] bytePayload = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 };

txn = con.BeginTransaction();
// Prepare to Dequeue
queue.DequeueOptions.Visibility = OracleAQVisibilityMode.OnCommit;

Observation - While investigating. I did same select from sql developer using same credential, I get same ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error in sql developer too BUT ONLY if I create new connection. (Disconnect and connect again), If I fire same query again in same connection it runs fine.
SELECT * FROM MYTABLE;
there is no problem if I run query in small case (notice only select and from in small case), even if it is fresh connection there is no error.

ORA-01031 (Insufficient Privileges) after moving server to new domain

Hello SAP/Oracle experts,
We recently performed a 'lift & shift' to move our SAP test system (QAS) from our HQ to our hosting partner's data centre. Although SAP works fine, we've lost the ability to run database operations through DB13. We now receive ORA-01031 - Insufficient Privileges errors whenever we try anything through DB13.
Because moving the server involved changing the Windows domain to which it belonged, we created a trust relationship between old and new domains so that we didn't have to change the details of QASADM and SAPServiceQAS. We ran the usual oradbuser.sql and sapdba_role.sql scripts. We also removed and reassigned the ORA_QAS_DBA and ORA_QAS_OPER groups to the QASADM and SAPServiceQAS users. All of which seems to have made no difference and we still get ORA-01031 errors in DB13.
Even stranger though is the fact that at the Oracle level, user sys is able to log in 'as sysdba', whilst user system cannot. e.g.
sqlplus sys/<password>@qas as sysdba Works.
sqlplus sys/<password> as sysdba Works.
sqlplus / as sysdba Doesnt work
sqlplus system/<password>@qas as sysdba Doesnt work.
sqlplus system/<password> as sysdba Doesnt work.
This leads me to believe that the problem is not SAP-related (i.e. sapdba_role won't fix it!), but is more likely Oracle-related and perhaps down to the fact that ths system was built in one domain, but now resides in another. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to create QASADM and SAPServiceQAS accounts in the new domain and try that, but that's clutching at straws and doesn't explain why Oracle user sys works, whilst system doesn't.
Has anyone moved servers between domains and experienced similar problems?
Thanks in advance of any help,
Arwel.

is the recommended procedure when moving SAP Systems (or the server where they installed on) from one Domain to the next one (at least if the user accounts are in the same domain as the Server).
You have following dependencies when installing in a domain:
1. domain groups
2. local groups containing domain groups and/or domain accounts
3. Domain Accounts
4. maybe domain groups are used in Access Control Lists of local Files / Directories
5. User rights Assignment in registry
6. as in Oracle Database internal users reflecting Operating System users.
In Windows Security Objects (ACLs of Files, Directories) a Windows Account is referenced by it's SID which is unique (you can have a look at those strings in Upper Keys of the Registry HKEY_USERS). This means that a Domain User XYZ in Domain A has a different SID than Domain User XYZ in Domain B. The same applies to Windows Groups.
As a result of this c:\documents and Settings\XYZ will not be for the use with the same name if you move the computer to a diferent domain.
Windows will create something like c:\documents and Settings\XYZ.NEW_DOMAIN. As a result of this all envrionment variables of XYZ in the old domain are not visible in the new domain, because they are stored in the users registry which resides in c:\documents and Settings\XYZ\ntuser.dat in the old domain and c:\documents and Settings\XYZ.NEW_DOMAIN\ntuser.dat in the new domain.
Too many things to do, to many possibilities you can make mistakes - therefore --> homogenious system copy.
regards
Peter

Resolving problem with ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

hello i just to write a few word about my installation of oracle database 9i
My installation is on a Red Hat AS3
I have a problem with the error :ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
The one who read this know what about i tell.
The authorization is only for the user which Group is DBA as you can read everywhere.
but me when i tried groupadd dba => it tells group already exist.
but i can't find the group dba in the file /etc/group.
So i tried to make my user 'oracle' works with the 'already group exist' dba .
useradd -g dba oracle
but when i tried to start the database i create i have the message. : ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
i tried to add manualy the group dba to /etc/group (as i can read in websites)
and add a user manualy (/etc/passwd).
But does works.
I try all i can during 1 days long.
I was really upset because nothing that i read work.
finaly I go to the RedHat Menu (things i don't really do normaly on LINUX) and go to 'SYSTEM SETTINGS' and choose 'User and Group'
Here i can see my user 'Oracle' I get the property of the user .
there is a tab group ( 'select the group that the user will be member of:')
None of them where name DBA so i decidied to select all of them and tried.
MAGIC!!! then it works!!!
ps: after when i see the list of the group I saw that one of them is named 'SYS' . I really think that it is the one group i had to select. but don't know.
Now It is working for me so... And good luck for you. bye.

Errors
ORA-01031 "insufficient privileges"
Symptoms
During database upgrade phase using DBUA , it fails with error
ORA-1031 Insufficient privileges
Connection from sqlplus also fails with same error
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQLPLUS "conn / as sysdba"
ORA-1031 Insufficient privileges
Changing the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to SHARED / NONE does not make differen
Cause
ORACLE_HOME owner oramigts is part of OS group "dba" ,but config.s shows group "g680"
The 'OSDBA' and 'OSOPER' groups are chosen at installation time and usually both default to the group 'dba'.
These groups are compiled into the 'oracle' executable and so are the same for all databases running from a given ORACLE_HOME directory.
The actual groups being used for OSDBA and OSOPER can be checked thus:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
cat config.[cs]
Solution
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps:
1. Checked the ORACLE_HOME owner.
echo $ORACLE_HOME
/h02/app/oracle/product/9.2.0_64
cd / h02/app/oracle/product/
ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 58 oramigts dba 1024 Jan 2 2004 9.2.0_64
2.ORACLE_HOME software owner "oramigts" is part of group "dba"
3.Checked file $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/config.s
[If your platform has config.c:
Due to the way different compilers under different architectures generate
assembler code, it's not possible to give a universal rule.]
It shows dba group as "g680" where software owner is part of "dba" group
You can more find detail on config.s / config.c in the following doc.
Note 50507.1 SYSDBA and SYSOPER Privileges in Oracle
4. Modified the config.s for correct group.
.ascii "g680\0"
to
.ascii "dba\0"
7. mv config.o config.o.bak
8. make -f ins_rdbms.mk config.o ioracle
9. Checked the file config.o is created at $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
10. Connected / as sysdba thru Sqlplus from 9.2 Home, which connected sucessfully.

I always get ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error, even if i have granted the create table privilege to the user i am connected in.
What other privileges should i grant also,
Please if you have any idea.

Can you show us a cut/paste from the sql*plus of session of yours which should show that you have given the privilege directly to this user and after that the command fails?

ORA-01031: insufficient privileges problem

Hi all,
I am trying to create the below procedure in the BOLMIN schema which in turn selects data from the tables of VALMIN schema. and I get ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE BOLMIN.prcs_load_data
IS
BEGIN
FOR c
IN (SELECT DISTINCT AL4.GOAL_TEXT,
AL5.RESPONSE_TEXT,
AL7.SAMPLE_ID,

VALMIN.STUDENT_GOALS AL4,
VALMIN.STUDENT_QUESTION_DETAILS AL5,
VALMIN.STUDENT_QUESTION_RESPONSE AL6,
VALMIN.SAMPLE AL7,

AND AL6.QUESTION_TYPE_SUB_ID = AL5.QUESTION_TYPE_SUB_ID(+)
AND AL7.NAME_ID = AL8.NAME_ID(+)))
LOOP
NULL;
END LOOP;
END;
I checked the grants of each of the VALMIN schema tables involved in the associated sql query & they all have SELECT grant (to BOLMIN schema). Also, the SQL query itself, when executed in BOLMIN schema runs perfectly fine. The problem is occurring only when I enclose the query in a procedure. Isn't that weird? or am I missing something here? Any help regarding this issue is appreciated. Thanks.
The BOLMIN schema as CREATE PROCEDURE privilege as I have already created other procedures for other purposes.
Thanks,

DMU - ORA-01031 Insufficient privileges err

Hi I am trying to make a connection to a databse by using DMU. I am connecting as sys as sysdba. I am getting an error ORA-01031 Insufficient privileges error.
I can connect as sysdba on the server directly, so am pretty sure the password is correct.
I did run the SYS.DBMS_DUMA_INTERNAL package script, and it ran successfully.
SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/prvtdumi.plb
Library created.
Package created.
No errors.
Package body created.
Is there anything else I need to do in order to connect to a database through DMU
Thanks

Check the note pointed to by Srini. (It is mainly about double-checking the password, because password test performed on the server may be misleading.) If it does not help, set the file logging level to FINEST in DMU Preferences and then look into the log file. Is the error reported for the connection attempt itself or for some later internal operation logged in the log file?
Thanks,

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.

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!

Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (ORA-01031: insufficient privileges)

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:
SQL> connect sys/admin as sysdba;
ERROR: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
I am also not able to see the homepage either.
Can some please help.
Thanks

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
