SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 47797: When you use SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Oracle to create an Oracle table, the error "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" occurs
 |  |  |  |  |
When you try to create an Oracle table using SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Oracle, you might receive the following error:
ERROR: Error attempting to CREATE a DBMS table.
ERROR: ORACLE execute error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges.
This problem occurs when the USERID= option in the LIBNAME statement and the SCHEMA= data set or LIBNAME option have the same value. The SQL procedure's CREATE TABLE statement, which is passed to Oracle, does not contain the schema, only the table name. Oracle then tries to create the table using the user ID's schema, where the user does not have permission.
To work around the issue, create the Oracle table using the SQL pass-through facility.
