Creating foreign keys across different tablespace

[ahk]

Hi,

As above.
The error I got is "ORA-00942: table or view does not exist". Any ideas?
TIA.

it's not a tablespace issue, the owner of the foreign key must have
REFERENCES privileges granted on the PK table -- directly, and not via a
role

check the USER_TAB_PRIVS_RECD view

Either you need to qualify the table_name with the owner, or the owner
didn't grant you reference privilege on the affected table.
BTW: There is no relation between foreign keys and tablespaces. There
is a relation between foreign key and schemas.

Yes, either you got the table name wrong in your code, or you do not
have the REFERENCES privilege on the referenced table.

Oracle does not care what tablespace the referenced table is in as
long as it is local to the database and not remote (distributed
table).
