Dear All,

I am trying to drop a user with the DROP USER username.
command. It has been 5 hours already and it's still haven't completed.

The user does not own any objects/tables. The session status is active. Any ideas pls why is this taking so long?

Thanks

Rgds,

Query v$lock adn v$session_wait to see what happens.
You can also activate a trace on the running session.

I did a trace , this is the last sql it executed

select rowid
from
XDB.XDB$SCHEMA s where s.xmldata.schema_url = :1

it seems to have stopped since then.

and in v$session_wait, there's one row of data for the SID, event is db file sequential read.

What does it mean pls? How can I identify what exactly it is waiting for?

Would it help to bounce the DB?

Thanks

You have to post exactly what you did (to check) and what you have.
