Action: Use the correct rollback segment name.
ORA-01535: rollback segment 'string' already exists or given name has prefix _
SYSSMU
Cause: Specified rollback segment already exists or given name starts with _
SYSSMU.
Action: Use a different name. Note that _SYSSMU is an illegal prefix to an RBU
segment.
ORA-01536: space quota exceeded for tablespace 'string'
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-5
Cause: The space quota for the segment owner in the tablespace has been
exhausted and the operation attempted the creation of a new segment extent in the
tablespace.
Action: Either drop unnecessary objects in the tablespace to reclaim space or have
a privileged user increase the quota on this tablespace for the segment owner.
ORA-01537: cannot add file 'string' - file already part of database
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER TABLESPACE, a file being added is already
part of the database.
Action: Use a different file name.
ORA-01538: failed to acquire any rollback segment
Cause: Failed to acquire any rollback segment during startup in shared mode
Action: Startup in exclusive mode to create one more public segment or specify
available private segments in the INIT.ORA parameter rollback_segments_
required, then startup in shared mode
ORA-01539: tablespace 'string' is not online
Cause: Failed to either make a tablespace read-only or offline because it is not
online. A tblespace must be online before it can become read-only or offline
normal.
Action: Check the status of the tablespace. Use IMMEDIATE or TEMPORARY
options to force all files offline. Bring the tablespace online before making it
read-only.
ORA-01540: tablespace 'string' is not offline

Action: Bring the tablespace online or create the object in other tablespace
ORA-01543: tablespace 'string' already exists
Cause: Tried to create a tablespace which already exists
Action: Use a different name for the new tablespace
ORA-01544: cannot drop system rollback segment
Cause: Tried to drop system rollback segment
Action: None
ORA-01545: rollback segment 'string' specified not available
Cause: Either: 1) An attempt was made to bring a rollback segment online that is
unavailable during startup; for example, the rollback segment is in an offline
tablespace. 2) An attempt was made to bring a rollback segment online that is
already online. This is because the rollback segment is specified twice in the
ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS parameter in the initialization parameter file or the
rollback segment is already online by another instance. 3) An attempt was made to
4-6 Oracle Database Error Messages
drop a rollback segment that is currently online. 4) An attempt was made to alter a
rollback segment that is currently online to use unlimited extents. 5) An attempt
was made to online a rollback segment that is corrupted. This is because the
rollback is specified in _corrupted_rollback_segments parameter in initialization
parameter file.
Action: Either: 1) Make the rollback segment available; for example, bring an
offline tablespace online. 2) Remove the name from the ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS
parameter if the name is a duplicate or if another instance has already acquired the
rollback segment. 3) Bring the rollback segment offline first. This may involve
waiting for the active transactions to finish, or, if the rollback segment needs
recovery, discover which errors are holding up the rolling back of the transactions
and take appropriate actions. 4) Same as 3). 5) Remove the name from the _
corrupted_rollback_segments parameter.
ORA-01546: tablespace contains active rollback segment 'string'
Cause: Tried to make a tablespace that contains active rollback segment(s) offline
or read-only
Action: Shutdown instances that use the active rollback segments in the
tablespace and then make the tablespace offline or read-only
ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get
error below
Cause: Media recovery with one of the incomplete recovery options ended
without error. However, if the ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS command
were attempted now, it would fail with the specified error. The most likely cause
of this error is forgetting to restore one or more datafiles from a sufficiently old
backup before executing the incomplete recovery.
Action: Rerun the incomplete media recovery using different datafile backups, a
different control file, or different stop criteria.
ORA-01548: active rollback segment 'string' found, terminate dropping tablespace
Cause: Tried to drop a tablespace that contains active rollback segment(s)
Action: Shutdown instances that use the active rollback segments in the
tablespace and then drop the tablespace
ORA-01549: tablespace not empty, use INCLUDING CONTENTS option
Cause: Tried to drop a non-empty tablespace
Action: To drop all the objects in the tablespace, use the INCLUDING
CONTENTS option
ORA-01550: cannot drop system tablespace
Cause: Tried to drop system tablespace
Action: None
ORA-01551: extended rollback segment, pinned blocks released
Cause: Doing recursive extent of rollback segment, trapped internally by the
system
Action: None
ORA-01552: cannot use system rollback segment for non-system tablespace 'string'
Cause: Tried to use the system rollback segment for operations involving
non-system tablespace. If this is a clone database then this will happen when
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-7
attempting any data modification outside of the system tablespace. Only the
system rollback segment can be online in a clone database.
Action: Create one or more private/public segment(s), shutdown and then
startup again. May need to modify the INIT.ORA parameter rollback_segments to
acquire private rollback segment. If this is a clone database being used for
tablspace point in time recovery then this operation is not allowed. If the
non-system tablespace has AUTO segment space management, then create an
undo tablespace.
ORA-01553: MAXEXTENTS must be no smaller than the string extents currently
allocated
Cause: The number of extents allocated is greater than the MAXEXTENTS
specified.
Action: Specify a larger MAXEXTENTS value.
ORA-01554: transaction concurrency limit reached reason:string params:string,
string
Cause: Too many concurrent transactions
Action: Shutdown the system, modify the INIT.ORA parameters transactions,
rollback_segments or rollback_segments_required, then startup again.
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number string with name "string"
too small
Cause: rollback records needed by a reader for consistent read are overwritten by
other writers
Action: If in Automatic Undo Management mode, increase undo_retention
setting. Otherwise, use larger rollback segments
ORA-01556: MINEXTENTS for rollback segment must be greater than 1
Cause: Specified MINEXTENTS of less than 2 for rollback segment
Action: Specify larger MINEXTENTS
ORA-01557: rollback segment extents must be at least string blocks
Cause: Specified extent of less than minimum size for rollback segment
Action: Specify larger extents
ORA-01558: out of transaction ID's in rollback segment string
Cause: All the available transaction id's have been used
Action: Shutdown the instance and restart using other rollback segment(s), then
drop the rollback segment that has no more transaction id's.
ORA-01559: MAXEXTENTS for rollback segment must be greater than 1
Cause: Specified MAXEXTENTS of less than 2 for rollback segment
Action: Specify larger MAXEXTENTS
ORA-01560: LIKE pattern contains partial or illegal character
Cause: like pattern is not formed correctly
Action: make sure like pattern is specified correctly
ORA-01561: failed to remove all objects in the tablespace specified
Cause: Failed to remove all objects when dropping a tablespace
Action: Retry the drop tablespace until all objects are dropped
4-8 Oracle Database Error Messages
ORA-01562: failed to extend rollback segment number string
Cause: Failure occurred when trying to extend rollback segment
Action: This is normally followed by another error message that caused the
failure. You may take the rollback segment offline to perform maintainence. Use
the alter rollback segment offline command to take the rollback segment offline.
ORA-01563: rollback segment is PUBLIC, need to use the keyword PUBLIC
Cause: Did not use the keyword PUBLIC to identified public rollback segment
Action: Use the keyword PUBLIC when identifying public rollback segment
ORA-01564: rollback segment is not PUBLIC
Cause: The rollback segment segment identified is not public
Action: Do not use the keyword PUBLIC when identifying private rollback
segment
ORA-01565: error in identifying file 'string'
Cause: An error occurred while trying to identify a file.
Action: Check the error stack for detailed information.
ORA-01566: file specified more than once in ALTER DATABASE
Cause: The list of files supplied to the command contained at least one duplicate.
Action: Remove the duplicate file specification and retry.
ORA-01567: dropping log string would leave less than 2 log files for instance string
(thread string)
Cause: Dropping all the logs specified would leave fewer than the required two
log files per enabled thread.
Action: Either drop fewer logs or disable the thread before deleting the logs. It
may be possible to clear the log rather than drop it.
ORA-01568: cannot set space quota on PUBLIC
Cause: Trying to set space quota on a tablespace for PUBLIC.
Action: If trying to grant system-wide or tablespace-wide space priviledges to all
users, use GRANT RESOURCE [ON ] TO PUBLIC.
ORA-01569: data file too small for system dictionary tables
Cause: The datafile specified during creation of the database is too small to hold
the system dictionary tables.
Action: Recreate the database by specifying a larger file or more files.
ORA-01570: MINEXTENTS must be no larger than the string extents currently
allocated
Cause: The number of extents allocated is smaller than the MINEXTENTS
specified.
Action: Specify a smaller MINEXTENTS value.
ORA-01571: redo version string incompatible with ORACLE version string
Cause: This software version can not read the current redo logs, and either crash
recovery is required or there are offline database files that need media recovery. If
a file name is listed then it needs media recovery.
Action: Shutdown and startup using the compatible software. Do any required
media recovery, and open the database. Shutdown and then startup using current
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-9
software. If the file is going to be dropped then take it offline with the DROP
option to skip this check.
ORA-01572: rollback segment 'string' cannot be brought online, string extents
exceeded
Cause: The number of extents in the rollback segment exceeds the hard limit. It
cannot be brought online for writing.
Action: Drop and recreate the rollback segment.
ORA-01573: shutting down instance, no further change allowed
Cause: Some process tries to make changes while the db is being shutdown
Action: None
ORA-01574: maximum number of concurrent transactions exceeded
Cause: the limit on the number of concurrent transactions has been hit
Action: shutdown the system, increase the INIT.ORA parameter 'transactions' ,
and then restart the system.
ORA-01575: timeout waiting for space management resource
Cause: failed to acquire necessary resource to do space management.
Action: Retry the operation.
ORA-01576: The instance string is not enabled
Cause: The thread associated with instance is not enabled.
Action: Enable the thread associated with the instance using ALTER DATABASE
ENABLE INSTANCE command.
ORA-01577: cannot add log file 'string' - file already part of database
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER DATABASE, a file being added is already part
of the database.
Action: Use a different file name.
ORA-01578: ORACLE data block corrupted (file # string, block # string)
Cause: The data block indicated was corrupt. This was a physical corruption, also
called a media corruption. The cause is unknown but is most likely external to the
database. If ORA-26040 is also signaled, the corruption is due to NOLOGGING or
UNRECOVERABLE operations.
Action: The general method to repair a media corrupt block is to restore a backup
and recover the backup. For databases in ARCHIVELOG mode, use block media
recovery or media recovery. In some situations, you can also drop the segment and
re-create it. For example, you can drop an index and re-create the index.
ORA-01579: write error occurred during recovery
Cause: A write error occurred during recovery
Action: Consult trace files for the nature of the write error, and correct error.
ORA-01580: error creating control backup file string
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to create a control
file backup.
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information
4-10 Oracle Database Error Messages
ORA-01581: attempt to use rollback segment (string) new extent (string) which is
being allocated
Cause: Undo generated to extend a rollback segment run out of current undo
block space and is attempting to write into the new extent which has not been
completely allocated.
Action: The rollback segment extending will be rollbacked by the system, no more
extension will be possible untill the next extent is freed up by rolling back or
committing other transactions.
ORA-01582: unable to open control file for backup
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to open a control file
for backup.
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information
ORA-01583: unable to get block size of control file to be backed up

a control file for backup.
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information
ORA-01585: error identifying backup file string
Cause: An operating system error occurred when attempting to identify the file to
be used for control file backup.
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information
ORA-01586: database must be mounted EXCLUSIVE and not open for this
operation
Cause: Attempting to DROP DATABASE when the database is not mounted
EXCLUSIVE.
Action: Mount the database in EXCLUSIVE mode.
ORA-01588: must use RESETLOGS option for database open
Cause: An earlier attempt to open the database with the RESETLOGS option did
not complete, or recovery was done with a control file backup, or a FLASHBACK
DATABASE was done.
Action: Use the RESETLOGS option when opening the database.
ORA-01589: must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option for database open
Cause: Either incomplete or backup control file recovery has been performed.
After these types of recovery you must specify either the RESETLOGS option or
the NORESETLOGS option to open your database.
Action: Specify the appropriate option.
ORA-01590: number of segment free list (string) exceeds maximum of string
Cause: storage parameter FREELIST GROUPS is too large.
Action: Reduce storage parameters FREELIST GROUPS

ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-11
Cause: Trying to access resource that is locked by a dead two-phase commit
transaction that is in prepared state.
Action: DBA should query the pending_trans$ and related tables, and attempt to
repair network connection(s) to coordinator and commit point. If timely repair is
not possible, DBA should contact DBA at commit point if known or end user for
correct outcome, or use heuristic default if given to issue a heuristic commit or
abort command to finalize the local portion of the distributed transaction.
ORA-01592: error converting Version 7 rollback segment (string) to Oracle 8 format
Cause: Look at the accompanying internal error; Version 7 database may not have
shutdown cleanly.
Action: Investigate the internal error; may have to reload the Version 7 database
(from backup) and shutdown the database cleanly.
ORA-01593: rollback segment optimal size (string blks) is smaller than the
computed initial size (string blks)
Cause: Specified OPTIMAL size is smaller than the cumulative size of the initial
extents during create rollback segment.
Action: Specify a larger OPTIMAL size.
ORA-01594: attempt to wrap into rollback segment (string) extent (string) which is
being freed
Cause: Undo generated to free a rollback segment extent is attempting to write
into the same extent due to small extents and/or too many extents to free
Action: The rollback segment shrinking will be rollbacked by the system; increase
the optimal size of the rollback segment.
ORA-01595: error freeing extent (string) of rollback segment (string))
Cause: Some error occurred while freeing inactive rollback segment extents.
Action: Investigate the accompanying error.
ORA-01596: cannot specify system in string parameter

ORA-01607: cannot add logfile to the specified instance
Cause: The limit on the number of instances supported by the control file has
been reached.
Action: Use an instance name supported by the control file, or resize the thread
record and/or checkpoint progress record secions of the control file.
ORA-01608: cannot bring rollback segment 'string' online, its status is (string)
Cause: Could have been brought online before by DBA or left as a result of
process crash.
Action: Check the status of rollback segment in undo$ or dba_rollback_segs
ORA-01609: log string is the current log for thread string - cannot drop members
Cause: A member of the current log for a thread cannot be dropped.
Action: If the thread is opened, request a log switch by the instance that is using
it. If it is not open, disable the thread, manually archive the log, or clear it.
ORA-01610: recovery using the BACKUP CONTROLFILE option must be done
Cause: Either an earlier database recovery session specified BACKUP
CONTROLFILE, or the control file was recreated with the RESETLOGS option, or
the control file being used is a backup control file. After that only BACKUP
CONTROLFILE recovery is allowed and it must be followed by a log reset at the
next database open.
Action: Perform recovery using the BACKUP CONTROFILE option.
ORA-01611: thread number string is invalid - must be between 1 and string
Cause: A thread number in a command is greater than the number of threads
supported by the control file.
Action: Use a thread number that is valid, or resize the thread record and/or
checkpoint progress record sections of the control file.
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-13
ORA-01612: instance string (thread string) is already enabled
Cause: An attempt was made to enable a thread that is already enabled.
Action: Either use this thread or enable another thread.
ORA-01613: instance string (thread string) only has string logs - at least 2 logs
required to enable.
Cause: The thread cannot be enabled because it only has two online log files
associated with it.
Action: Add logs to the thread or pick another thread to enable
ORA-01614: instance string (thread string) is busy - cannot enable
Cause: The mount enqueue for the thread could not be acquired when attempting
to enable the thread. This probably means that another process has already started
enabling this thread.
Action: Wait and try again, or find another thread to enable.
ORA-01615: instance string (thread string) is mounted - cannot disable
Cause: Some instance, possibly this one, has allocated the thread for its use. The
thread can not be disabled while in use.
Action: Shut the instance down cleany using the thread.
ORA-01616: instance string (thread string) is open - cannot disable
Cause: The thread is not closed. The last instance to use the thread died leaving
the thread open. A thread cannot be disabled until it is closed. It is still required
for crash or instance recovery.
Action: If the database is open, instance recovery should close the thread soon -
wait a few minutes. Otherwise open the database - crash recovery will close the
thread.
ORA-01617: cannot mount: string is not a valid thread number
Cause: The INIT.ORA parameter "thread" is not between 1 and the number of
threads allowed by the control file.
Action: Shut down the instance, change the INIT.ORA parameter and startup, or
resize the thread record and/or checkpoint progress record sections of the control
file.
ORA-01618: redo thread string is not enabled - cannot mount
Cause: The INIT.ORA parameter "thread" requests a thread that is not enabled. A
thread must be enabled before it can be mounted.
Action: Shutdown the instance, change the INIT.ORA parameter and startup
mounting a different thread. If the database is open in another instance then the
thread may be enabled.
ORA-01619: thread string is mounted by another instance
Cause: The INIT.ORA parameter "thread" requests a thread that has been
mounted by another instance. Only one instance may use a thread.
Action: Shutdown the instance, change the INIT.ORA parameter and startup
mounting a different thread.
ORA-01620: no public threads are available for mounting
Cause: The INIT.ORA parameter "thread" is zero, its default value. There are no
threads which have been publicly enabled, and not mounted.
4-14 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Shutdown the instance, change the INIT.ORA parameter to a thread
which is privately enabled and not mounted. If the database is open in another
instance, then a thread may be publicly enabled.
ORA-01621: cannot rename member of current log if database is open
Cause: This is a rename command for a member of the current log for an open
thread. If the database is open anywhere, the log may be in use, so the rename
cannot be done.
Action: Wait until the log is not current, or mount the database exclusively.
ORA-01622: thread number must be specified - default not specific
Cause: The thread was not specified when adding a log, and the currently
mounted thread was chosen by default at mount time. Since the current thread
was not specified explicitly the user cannot know which thread the log will be
added to.
Action: Explicitly specify the thread number either in the INIT.ORA parameter
"thread", or in the add command.
ORA-01623: log string is current log for instance string (thread string) - cannot drop
Cause: A thread's current log cannot be dropped even if the thread is closed. A
disabled thread usually does not have a current log, but a half completed disable
may need to be disabled again.
Action: If the database is not open then disable the thread. If the database is open
and an instance has the thread open, then the instance can be requested to switch
logs. If the database is closed the log can be archived or cleared to force a switch.
ORA-01624: log string needed for crash recovery of instance string (thread string)
Cause: A log cannot be dropped or cleared until the thread's checkpoint has
advanced out of the log.
Action: If the database is not open, then open it. Crash recovery will advance the
checkpoint. If the database is open force a global checkpoint. If the log is corrupted
so that the database cannot be opened, it may be necessary to do incomplete
recovery until cancel at this log.

Action: If the value of the MAXEXTENTS storage parameter is less than the
maximum allowed by the system, raise this value.
ORA-01629: max # extents (string) reached saving undo for tablespace string
Cause: Save undo for the offline tablespace at max extents
Action: Check the storage parameters for the system tablespace. The tablespace
needs to be brought back online so the undo can be applied .
ORA-01630: max # extents (string) reached in temp segment in tablespace string
Cause: A temp segment tried to extend past max extents.
Action: If maxextents for the tablespace is less than the the system maximum, you
can raise that. Otherwise, raise pctincrease for the tablespace
ORA-01631: max # extents (string) reached in table string.string
Cause: A table tried to extend past maxextents

Action: None
ORA-01637: rollback segment 'string' is being used by another instance (#string)
Cause: The instance is trying to online a RS already in use by another instance
Action: None
ORA-01638: parameter string does not allow ORACLE version string to mount
cluster database
Cause: The recovery compatible parameter is set too low to allow this software
version to mount in cluster database mode.
Action: Either use an earlier software release or advance the recovery_compatible
parameter. If this happens when no recovery_compatible parameter has been
specified then set it to the current software release.
ORA-01639: instance string has no thread assigned to it
4-16 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: There is no mapping from instance to thread for this instance in the control
file.
Action: Make sure that this instance has a thread assigned to it by adding logfiles
to this instance or by starting the instance with an existing thread which will
automatically create a mapping.
ORA-01640: cannot make tablespace read-only with changes by in-doubt
transactions
Cause: An attempt was made to alter a tablespace read-only while there were
changes in the tablespace made by in-doubt distributed transactions. The in-doubt
transactions must commit or rollback to ensure that there is no undo for a
tablespace before it can be made read-only.
Action: Any in-doubt transactions that made changes to the tablespace must be
resolved.
ORA-01641: tablespace 'string' is not online - cannot add data file
Cause: Attempting to add a datafile to a tablespace that has been set to read-only
or offline.
Action: Make the tablespace online and read write then add the datafile.
ORA-01642: begin backup not needed for read-only tablespace 'string'
Cause: Attempting to begin or end a backup for a tablespace that has been set to
read-only.
Action: Take the backup without any begin or end commands. The files are not
being modified so the backup will be consistent.
ORA-01643: system tablespace can not be made read-only
Cause: Attempting to set the system tablespace to read-only. The system
tablespace must remain read write for database operation.
Action: Leave system tablespace read write.
ORA-01644: tablespace 'string' is already read-only
Cause: Attempting to make tablespace read-only that is already read-only.
Action: Leave tablespace read-only, or make read write then make read-only
again.
ORA-01645: previous attempt to make read write is half complete
Cause: A failure while making the tablespace read write left it read only, but the
checkpoint was advanced. The tablespace will not be useable after a resetlogs if its
files are offline.
Action: Repeat the command to make the tablespace read write.
ORA-01646: tablespace 'string' is not read-only - cannot make read write

ORA-01648: log string is the current log of disabled instance string (thread string)
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-17
Cause: An attempt to enable the thread failed after it was half completed. This log
was left as the current log even though the thread is still disabled. Since a log
switch cannot be done until the thread is enabled, the log can not be cleared or
archived.
Action: Complete the thread enable by issuing the enable command again.
ORA-01649: operation not allowed with a backup control file
Cause: An attempt is being made to perform a command that does not make
sense when the control file is a restored backup.
Action: Wait until after the database has been opened and try again.
ORA-01650: unable to extend rollback segment string by string in tablespace string

Cause: Attempting to mount, recover or activate a standby database without a
standby control file.
Action: Create a standby control file before attempting to use the database as a
standby database.
ORA-01666: control file is for a standby database
Cause: Attempting to mount, recover, or open a standby database without the
appropriate command option to designate a standby database.
Action: Use the standby option or appropriate commands, or mount with the
primary control file.
ORA-01667: cannot add any more tablespaces: limit of string exceeded
Cause: There is no more room in the control file for adding tablespaces.
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-19
Action: Resize the control file or drop other tablespaces.
ORA-01668: standby database requires DROP option for offline of data file
Cause: Attempting to take a datafile offline in a standby database without
specifying the DROP option. Files that are offline in a standby database are not
recovered, and are likely to be unusable if the standby is activated. Note that
specifying DROP does not prevent bringing the file online later.
Action: Specify the DROP option or leave the file online.
ORA-01669: standby database control file not consistent
Cause: Attempting to activate a standby database with a control file that has not
been recovered to the same point as the data files. Most likely the control file was
just copied from the primary database and has not been used for recovery.
Action: Recover the standby database until all the files are consistent.
ORA-01670: new datafile string needed for standby database recovery
Cause: Standby database recovery noticed that a file was added to the primary
database, but is not available on the standby.

DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE command on the standby to create a file to
recover.
ORA-01671: control file is a backup, cannot make a standby control file
Cause: The currently mounted control file is a backup control file, and attempting
to create a control file for a standby database.
Action: Complete any needed recovery and open the database with the resetlogs
option.
ORA-01672: control file may be missing files or have extra ones
Cause: Attempting to create a standby control file, but the control file was either
recently created via CREATE CONTROLFILE or an incomplete recovery has been
done. Thus the datafiles in the control file and the ones in the data dictionary may
not match.
Action: Open the database, then retry the operation.
ORA-01673: data file string has not been identified
Cause: This data file was not in the control file after an incomplete recovery or
CREATE CONTROLFILE. Since information from its header is needed for standby
database recovery, we can not create a standby control file.
Action: Find the file and bring it online. If desired it may be taken offline again. If
you intend to drop this file, then taking it offline with the DROP option will avoid
this error.
ORA-01674: data file string is an old incarnation rather than current file
Cause: Recovery encountered redo that indicates this file was dropped from the
database and another file was added using the same file number. This implies that
a CREATE CONTROLFILE command was given the old file which was dropped
rather than the latest file.
Action: Rebuild the control file using CREATE CONTROLFILE, and give the
correct file.
ORA-01675: max_commit_propagation_delay inconsistent with other instances
4-20 Oracle Database Error Messages

ORA-01676: standby file name conversion of 'string' exceeds maximum length of
string
Cause: When the given file name was converted to the name used for the standby
database, the converted name was bigger than the maximum allowed file name.
Action: Change initialization parameter DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT or LOG_
FILE_NAME_CONVERT to convert to a valid file name.
ORA-01677: standby file name conversion parameters differ from other instance
Cause: The DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT or LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT
initialization parameters were not the same as in other instances that already had
the database mounted.
Action: Change initialization parameters DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT or LOG_
FILE_NAME_CONVERT to match other instances.
ORA-01678: parameter string must be pairs of pattern and replacement strings
Cause: The initialization parameter does not have even number of strings for its
value. The odd numbered strings are patterns to be found in file names. The even
numbered strings are used to replace the corresponding patterns when found in
file names.
Action: Specify even number of strings for the parameter, or omit the parameter.
ORA-01679: database is being opened
Cause: An attempt was made to activate a standby database when the database
was in the middle of being opened.
Action: Wait for database open to finish and retry the ACTIVATE command.

can raise that. Otherwise, raise pctincrease for the tablespace
ORA-01682: read-only DB cannot allocate temporary space in tablespace string
Cause: Temporary space (usually for sorting) could not be allocated in either main
storage or a tempfile. An attempt was made to allocate the space from the
tablespace named, but the database is opened read-only. The database open
requires a sort work space.
Action: Either allow sufficient workspace in main storage (SORT_AREA_SIZE
initialization parameter), or create a temporary tablespace before making the
database read-only. Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD TEMPFILE statement to add
temporary files to the temporary tablespace.
ORA-01683: unable to extend index string.string partition string by string in
tablespace string
ORA-01500 to ORA-02098 4-21

disabled
Cause: A CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX statement specified
RECOVERABLE when the database was running in NOARCHIVELOG mode.

maximum allowable limit of 1000. Note that unused columns in the table are
counted toward the 1000 column limit.
Action: If the error is a result of a CREATE command, then reduce the number of
columns in the command and resubmit. If the error is a result of an ALTER TABLE
command, then there are two options: 1) If the table contained unused columns,
remove them by executing ALTER TABLE DROP UNUSED COLUMNS before
adding new columns; 2) Reduce the number of columns in the command and
resubmit.
ORA-01795: maximum number of expressions in a list is 1000
