Who have dropped table

Hello expert,
Please tell me how to find out who have dropped a table in the oracle database.
Many Thanks,

Yes, it is possible the table is in the recycle bin and can be recovered. It is also possible that there has been demand for space in the tablespace in question and that the recycle bin copy space has had to be reused. It will depend on the environment, but checking the recycle bin is an excellent starting point providing the database is 10g+.
Querying v$sql for the drop command is also time (and load) dependent.
I suggest you configure auditing in all production environments to audit DDL since tables should rarely be created, altered, or dropped in production. Knowing when objects are added, altered, and dropped can be valuable when trying to track down process changes and for some other DBA tasks.

Who have made the entry in Z table

Hi Friends,
Can anyone tell me - how to find out who have made the entry in Z table ?
Sonal

Hi sonal,
I want to say that if logging of tables is on in your server and you have also make log on in Technical settings of the table then you will be able to see the log using 'SE14'.
First consult with basis about the setting of server and if they have set logging of tables ON
THEN
goto se11 and give your table name.
open the table and click on 'Technical Settings'
in last their is a check box 'Log data Changes'
Check if this is on or not.
If both condition are ok then you can check the log of your table in SE14
using 'Object Log' button in application tool bar.

Allowing a user to create/drop tables in another users schema

We have a central shared schema (TEAM). So we can monitor who is doing what users have there own login(USER1, USER2...). Is there a way to allow a user to create/drop objects in another user.
I.e.
SQL> connect USER1
SQL> create team.table1(col1 char(1));
SQL> drop table team.table1:
How can this be set up?
Ben

Here is what you can do, If you want to keep track of what users are doing.
Open the glogin.sql file and set the spool like this
spool /oracle/audit/SID_&_user.logEverytime user logs in it will be populated and you will be able to see who is doing what.
You can remove the write permission on glogin.sql so that no one can modify it.
You also need to create a script like this, which would rename it every time same user would login.
#!/bin/ksh
time=`date +"%b"_"%d"_"%H"_"%M"`
##you need to pass some more variables and while loop to include all the users## ( This is just for an example)
if [ -f /oracle/audit/SID_SYS.log ]
then
mv /oracle/audit/SYS.log /oracle/audit/SYS.log.$time
fiEdit the glogin.sql file with this script information like this
host /oracle/audit/file.kshHope this helps, if you need more information let me know.

Find info about dropped table

A table has been dropped on a test system (Oracle 10g). Is there a way to find out who/when the table was deleted or any other hints?
- I have checked flashback_transaction_query but I could not find the table. It looks like the undo space was not big enough!?
- select * from sys.aud$ where OBJ$NAME = 'TABLE_XYZ'; shows only the satetement from the table creation
Thanks.

Is there a way to find out who/when the table was deleted or any other hints?To find out "who/when", either
* you should have Auditing enabled or
* at the database level you should enable supplemental logging and use log miner on your redo logs.

Finding who has dropped th epartitions

Hi,
Can some body help me on how to find who has dropped the partitions in a table in oracle 10.2
Thanks
Lbn

Partitions can only be dropped by a schema and code that have permissions to drop those objects. So given the security model you have on that database, nothing incorrect was done.
If this happens not to be the case, and partitions were dropped "illegally", then the security model used is flawed.
And the first action should be identifying the flaws in the security model and fixing these - properly. A witch hunt for an offender will not fix or resolve anything.
As for finding the "offender" - unless you have auditing enabled, or archive logs to mine, there is no way to identify the "offender".
Rather fix your security model first. That is what the problem is. Not the fact that an "offender" (accidentally) manage to wipe partitions.

What's the best case for a Macbook Air for someone who *may* drop the laptop?

I see all the forums here about cases for Macbook Air, but most people seem more worried about scratches. I am looking for the lightest case that might actually protect the Air in a fall. Any ideas?
BTW I have been a long time PC laptop user which seem to be a bit more rugged (and thus heavy). I have dropped my PC laptop in the past without any damage. I've bought the Macbook Air 13 which arrives this week. I don't mind adding a little weight to the laptop to protect it in a fall...

I am also clumsy but I find Apple products exceptionally tough.
I dropped my MacBook Air with no case or anything onto concrete from like 1 meter and this is all that happened
I also dropped my iPad from a table onto the same floor and when I saw it face down I was dreading having to pick it up...it was fine however with not a mark in sight
Yes this is just the experience of 1 person however I think people are too cautious nowdays
Remember the things you read on here "I dropped my macbook and the screen shattered please help" are probably the minority - if someone dropped it and it was fine they wouldn't post here so you are getting a false sense that everyone who drops their machine ends up bad!

Hi user631592 ;-)
You can't used directly a DDL statment.
But you can use an EXECUTE IMMEDIATE in your process.
SO
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ' DROP TABLE STATPHI_595730051';
END;

Cannot drop table

Versions are Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 and SQL Developer 4.0.0.12 on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1.
Hi
I'm following the CBT Nuggets SQL Fundementals training (video #11) and cannot drop a table I have just created. The command executed and error are:
drop table newprods;
Error starting at line : 1 in command -
drop table newprods
Error report -
SQL Error: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-20000: Cannot drop object
ORA-06512: at line 2
00604. 00000 - "error occurred at recursive SQL level %s"
*Cause:    An error occurred while processing a recursive SQL statement
           (a statement applying to internal dictionary tables).
*Action:   If the situation described in the next error on the stack
           can be corrected, do so; otherwise contact Oracle Support.
As the HR user I created two tables and created a FK constraint between them. After truncating the table with this FK, I am unable to drop it. Even if I remove the FK, the error is the same. Issing the command in SQL*Plus gives the same error.
This is the first time I have created any tables since installing Oracle on this machine and is my first attempt at dropping a table. I have not created any sequences, triggers or views based on these newly created tables.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers

thanks for replying guys. But the thing is i am using dynamic sql execute immediate in my package, so i want those tables also and the schema name.
thanks,
ortonThis is not possible. The best you could do is to have a good guess.
Or how would you parse some dynamic statement as this:
   v_suffix := 'loyees';
   v_sql := 'Select count(*) from (select ''nonsense'' col1 from emp'||v_suffix||') where col1 = ''Y'''';
   execute_immediate(v_sql);
...What is the table name? How do you want to parse that?
Better rewrite all dynamic SQL statements into non dynamic ones. Or do the source control logic for those dynamic parts in an extra module. For example implement your own dependency table and force every developer to add there all dynamic parts.

Dropping tables in Oracle 10g Express

I have several schemas created in my oracle express db. And I have created 1 user, 'met' that has privs to do anything in any schema.
If user met drops a table in the acct schema, it does not go in the acct recyclebin like I would think. It is renamed BIN$...... and left in the acct schema.
If acct drops a table in the acct schema, then it shows up in the acct recyclebin as the same name it had in the schema.
We have 40+ schemas, and I don't want to login as each individual user to manage there tables, I want one account to manage them all, but do not want to leave alot of BIN$..... tables in the schema when I drop a table.
I know I can purge them, and remove them for good, but If I want to drop a table, and have a backup for a while, I want it to be in the recyclebin.
Anyway to fix this, or is this just how it work?

You may want to use the purge command:
PURGE recyclebin;
Or disable the recycle bin parameter, which will diables the flashback feature and won't allow you to recover any mistakenly dropped table:
RECYCLE_BIN=FALSE;

Drop table is not Working in SQL

Hi,
I am trying to drop table in below code in dynamic way, but facing error.
Looking for your support.
/**********************************RESET************************/
if @TypeOfUpdate='Reset'
Begin
Drop table [' + @DestinationTable + ']
exec('select * into [' + @DestinationTable + '] from openrowset(''Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0'', ''Excel 12.0;HDR=YES;Database=' + @TABLENAME + ''', ' + ''' select * from '+@SourceSheet + ''')')

You you need a dynamic SQL statement for drop too. :)
if @TypeOfUpdate='Reset'
Begin
exec('Drop table '+ @DestinationTable+';
select * into [' + @DestinationTable + ']
from openrowset(''Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0'', ''Excel 12.0;HDR=YES;Database=' +

Drop table problem

How can i drop a table (Access) with JDBC like "test one"?
My problem is, that the table have in the name a whitespace.

The Access convention for non-standard table or column names is to surround them with square brackets, like this:
DROP TABLE [Bad Choice Of Name]

SCAC Field Should have Drop Down Values and ASN should have Storage locatio

Hi ,
We have a requirement while creating ASN in which we have to add SCAC ID in the SCAC field ( Carrier) this SCAC ID comes in Shipping details - We want to have drop down values in this field and also if we dont enter value in this field An Error Message should come like " Maintain SCAC code.
And also the PO's coming from ECC are not carrying Storage location information - Is there a specific config / enhancement to be done.
And in ASN can we have Storage location ?
Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh
Regarding adding fields to UI
Refer below links
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0b0e544-7a06-2d10-539d-f8648358ba67?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true

Not sure how to maintain it as a drop down, a developer could help you easily with that.
Regarding Storage location from PO ECC.
If you are using idocs, the standard SAP xml conversion will not be able to transfer this(if you download standard content)
You can find the field in your IDOC ORDERS05, Data records-Segement-E1EDP01FIELDLGORD
In order to transfer this, you need to rewrite the xml format in integration builder of XI/PI and then add some UI fields in Webui
to show.
But xml PurchaseOrderERPReplenishmentOrderCollaborationNotification as of SAP ECC EHP4 can carry this information in its payload document(SXI_MONITOR---INBOUND MESSAGE ---PAYLOADS) Under the node INVENTORY MANAGED LOCATION
Not sure where this field is mapped to .........
I will let you know once i find........Mean while you can ask any developer who worked on webdynpro .
Yes we can have this field once we find where it is mapping, if you are using idocs then even the XML has to be build in PI
accordingly.
Best Regards
Vinod
