I am getting the error

ORA-01652 Unable to extend          


        

Answer 1

I encountered the same error message but don't have any access to the table like "dba_free_space" because I am not a dba. I use some previous answers to check available space and I still have a lot of space. However, after reducing the full table scan as many as possible. The problem is solved. My guess is that Oracle uses temp table to store the full table scan data. It the data size exceeds the limit, it will show the error. Hope this helps someone with the same issue
