OCI Error ORA-00942: table or view does not exist (status = 942).


There is two option to delete replicat from unsupported oracle database release.

1. Try to delete replicat using force option:

GGSCI> delete  replicat REPTMP !

If may be we are getting the same error message then we need to move second option.

2. Execute dba_xstream_inbound and dba_apply packages:

Connect database using sysdba and run below two select queries.

 select * from dba_xstream_inbound;
 select * From dba_apply;

If above two queries are return any values then need to  execute below two mentioned packages.

This two packages will remove the entries from above two tables.

exec dbms_xstream_adm.drop_inbound('<your inbound server name>');

exec dbms_apply_adm.drop_apply('<your apply name>');

Then we can delete registered replicat without any error.
