Error in Update Statistics - SQL error -20003 at location stats_tab_collect

[Former Member]

Hello,

I just want to share a solution for the error SQL error -20003 at location stats_tab_collect. The issue occurs on DB13 update statistics.

It began occur after a BW system refresh done through Oracle database backup from PRD.

Symptom

BR0301E SQL error -20003 at location stats_tab_collect-78, SQL statement

BR0886E Collecting statistics failed for table SAPSR3./BIC/B0000100000

I tried to find something on SAP Support, but no lucky.

Then, I found the solution below in Oracle Support Doc ID 1180514.1:

Cause

Problems with validity of the dictionary objects upon which DBMS_STATS package depends.

Solution

Log on as ora<SID> user on the OS, and then recreate DBMS_STATS package by running the following scripts with SQLPLUS:

  @?/rdbms/admin/dbmsstat.sql

  @?/rdbms/admin/prvtstas.plb

  @?/rdbms/admin/prvtstat.plb
