RE: Error when running dbms_stats

Harvinder,

I encountered the same problem and it does not seem to be consistent. The fix I was given was to

SQL> alter session set"_complex_view_merging"=false;

That solved the problem for me. I have no explanation as to why or what is going on but give that a try.

Subject: Error when running dbms_stats

Hi,

I am running the following script and getting errors: begin
dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats(ownname=> 'HS',estimate_percent=> 100,degree=> dbms_stats.auto_degree,granularity=> 'AUTO',method_opt=> 'FOR ALL COLUMNS SIZE AUTO',options=> 'GATHER',cascade=> TRUE); end;

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13210
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13556
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13634
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 13593
ORA-06512: at line 2

This was working before, what can be the possible issue?

Thanks
