I'll add one more option...
e) grant select any dictionary to <whomever>;

The change between 8i and 9i that causes this common consternation is that, as Kirti mentioned, the default for the initialization parameter o7_dictionary_accessibility changed from TRUE (8i) to FALSE (9i).

It is likely that the user id had (or has) 'select any table' privilege.

In Oracle9i, this privilege will not work when accessing any 'SYS' owned objects, because the initialization parameter O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY defaults to FALSE.

To solve this problem you may follow one of these:

Set O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY to TRUE
As Raj mentioned, log in 'as sysdba'
Grant 'SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE' to the user
Explicitly grant select privilege on the SYS owned objects to the user.

Amit,
You must have dropped them over the desk, look under the chair ... or Send USD4000 and SASE to following address ... and we will send you a fresh copy.

Seriously, you need to log in "as sysdba" to see them.

ps: if you are wondering about the 4K figure, it goes to my Plasma TV fund, I believe it will be good for my eye-sight.

        I've just installed Oracle 91 on my machine. Earlier I used to see the V$ views but am no longer able to see them. Is there a way I can find out if any objects have been deleted or not and such details ?

        Thank you.
