Disabling constraint (when you want to drop the parent table) will not help.
This should help: Alter table DEBTOR_CLAIM_COMPONENTS drop constraint FK_DCC_MEDIUMS. After this you should be able to drop MV. Igor Neyman, OCP DBA [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Jeroen van Sluisdam Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 2:40 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L select table_name, constraint_name from all_constraints where r_constraint_name in ( select constraint_name from all_constraints where table_name = 'SNAP$_MEDIUMS') -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Mohammed, Thanks for your reaction but this doesn't help. I think table must be snap$_mediums and when I issue your query I get: TABLE_NAME CONSTRAINT_NAME STATUS ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------- DEBTOR_CLAIM_COMPONENTS FK_DCC_MEDIUMS DISABLED I even tried disabling all constraints. I tried removing the view Through enterprise manager, it looked ok because it doesn't show there Anymore but in the dictionary it does. I tried set constraints all deferred; drop table snap$_mediums; alter table snap$_mediums drop primary key all do not seem to work, I am starting to think I have somehow corrupted the dictionary. I hope you can shed some light on this Regards, Jeroen Van: Mohammed Shakir [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verzonden: dinsdag 9 december 2003 17:59 Aan: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Onderwerp: Re: dropping materialized view Please try this select table_name, constraint_name from all_constraints where r_constraint_name in ( select constraint_name from all_constraints where table_name = 'MEDIUMS') it should give you the table_name constraint names that are not allowing you to drop your table. You will have to disable these constraints before dropping your table mediums.
