    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 18.01

    Description:
    I'm able to do SQL Select's OK (such as a "select count") but when I try to do:

    abc50@ALEPH18> update sys00.z303 set z303_dispatch_library = 'ABFST' where z303_home_library = 'ABFST' and z303_rec_key in (select substr(z305_rec_key,1,12) from z305);

    I get:

    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

    Resolution:
    In order to update a sys00 table, you need to be connected to sys00. This works:

    s+ sys00

    update sys00.z303 set z303_dispatch_library = 'ABFST' where z303_home_library = 'ABFST' and z303_rec_key in (select substr(z305_rec_key,1,12) from abc50.z305);
