Answer 3

You need to GRANT the CREATE VIEW privilege to the USER which is creating the view.

For example, I create a new user to let it create a session, a table and a view:

SQL> create user test identified by test;

User created.

SQL> grant create session, create table, create view to test;

Grant succeeded.

SQL> conn test/test@pdborcl;
Connected.
SQL> Create Table advanced
  2   (Id  varchar(15),
  3   Name varchar(20),
  4   Dept  varchar(15),
  5   Cgpa  float,
  6   Birth_date date,
  7   Mob_no  int,
  8   Dist varchar(20),
  9   Salary  number(8));

Table created.

SQL> Create View advanced_data as
  2  (
  3  select name,dept,dist,salary from advanced
  4  );

View created.

If I revoke the privilege, you will recieve ORA-01031: insufficient privileges:

SQL> revoke create view from test;

Revoke succeeded.

SQL> conn test/test@pdborcl;
Connected.
SQL> Create or replace View advanced_data as
  2  (
  3  select name,dept,dist,salary from advanced
  4  );
Create or replace View advanced_data as
                       *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Answer 4

As the error states - your privileges are insufficient to create view - you will have to ask database administrator to grant you this privilege. If you can log in as database administrator you will have to execute statement(I can't guarantee correctness, no oracle database at hand)

GRANT CREATE ANY VIEW TO Scott;

or

GRANT CREATE VIEW TO Scott;
