Hi All,
 I have a 8.1.6.2 database on hp9000. (11.0). I have created one snapshot , with partition. Now I not able to drop snapshot or nor I cam drop last partition.
 It does not show that snapshot in dba_snapshot. I renamed the snapshot to old. But "drop snapshot is not working
SQL> drop snapshot old;
drop snapshot old
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12003: snapshot "SYS"."OLD" does not exist If I try to drop the table then it gives this error SQL> drop table old;
drop table old

           *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12083: must use DROP MATERIALIZED VIEW to drop "SYS"."OLD"

Does somebody has encountered this error or has solution to this problem.
