(Oracle)When open a view it says insufficient privileges - oracle

Three days ago, I created another user, it's ok. Now I create another user, not working. I don't know what I missed.
This time I did:
CREATE USER TESTDB identified by N2dTlOBFRZ9x;
GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE TO TESTDB;
GRANT CREATE SESSION TO TESTDB;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO TESTDB;
GRANT CREATE TABLE to TESTDB;
GRANT CREATE VIEW to TESTDB;
I can create a view, named viewTest, save it.
TESTDB viewTest
select * from PRODDB.employee
Then open viewTest, it says insufficient privileges.
I have another user. let's call it PRODDB. This is online database
The user I created 3 days ago, is OKDB.
Today I created one another, TESTDB.
In OKDB, I created a view (viewTest) and I can open it.
select * from PRODDB.employee;
But in TESTDB, cannot open.

Thank you for the update! I believe this is a permissions issue.
In OKDB, I created a view and I can open it. select * from
PRODDB.employee;
But in TESTDB, cannot open.
So in this example, there are three users: 1. PRODDB, 2. OKDB, and 3. TESTDB.
The view is named Employee and was created under the PRODDB schema; PRODDB.EMPLOYEE.
If OKDB can query PRODDB.EMPLOYEE, one of two things have to be true. Either: 1. OKDB was granted privileges on PRODDB.EMPLOYEE directly (e.g. grant select on PRODDB.EMPLOYEE to OKDB;), or 2. OKDB has elevated privileges through a role that enables the user to query that view (e.g. grant DBA to OKDB, which will allow OKDB to query any table in the database.)
If TESTDB can't query the view, I would bet that the necessary privileges have not been granted to the user. To fix this, I would recommend checking the privileges and roles that have been granted to the OKDB user and then granting the same privilege(s) to TESTDB. If this is something work related, you may have to work with another DBA if you do not have permission to issue grants.

oracle ora-01045 -privileges granted by role not working

im using oracle db v21c , after trying to create a role student with privs 'create session , create table , create view ' a granted that role to a user 'user3' but when trying to connect with that user i got ora-01045. i checked that privs granted to that role and everything seems normal , i have tried using granting the role the privileges with admin option and nothing happens . I used select * from dba_sys_privs where grantee='student' and all seems good . The role is created with system and so the user because at first i was trying to create the role with scott , but get an error insufficient privileges, but scott have the privilege to create role.
Roles are not active by default. You must either alter the user to set a default role (and then login again), or alter the user's current session to set a current role:
alter user user3 default role all;
or
set role student;

MonetDB - How to create a new user/role to have full access to the entire DB/schema?

is there a way to create a new admin user/role that can have access to all the existing tables.
If another user create a new table, the admin user should be able to also have permissions to the new table.
Right now, the only way is giving explicitly the list of the tables:
mclient -f "csv" -s "select name from sys.tables where system=false" | xargs -I '{}' mclient -s 'set schema "'$MONETDB_SCHEMA'"; grant select on "{}" to "pm-usecase"'
but if a new table is created by another user, then we need to grant access to the new table again.
We wondered the same thing but the only option is to make a role:
CREATE ROLE test_role;
Create a schema with the role authorisation present:
CREATE SCHEMA new_schema AUTHORIZATION test_role;
Grant the role to the users using the schema:
GRANT test_role TO test_user;
Now if the user test_user uses the set role test_role command in a sql session he will be able to access tables created by other users without having to be granted the privilege.
At the moment there seems to be no blanket option to make a user able to do this in all schema's. A solution could be to create all tables with one specific table role authorization.
There is a built-in role called sysadmin:
grant sysadmin to <user>
However, you would still need to set the role on your connection to activate the permissions.

Oracle: Creating a view across schemas using admin account

I want to create a view in SCHEMA_A using columns from a table LICENSE in SCHEMA_B.
create view SCHEMA_B.V_TEST as
SELECT LICENSE_NUMBER FROM SCHEMA_A.LICENSE L
then
select * from SCHEMA_B.V_TEST
This is giving me "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" when I try to select from the view as the admin account. (Edit: admin account has SELECT ANY TABLE privileges.) What am I missing?
There is a similar question but the solution has to do with one user granting select to another. Since I'm admin I should have select privilege on both schemas already? However I have tried adding the line "GRANT SELECT ON SCHEMA_A.LICENSE TO admin_account WITH GRANT OPTION" and get the same error.
I think that the creation of the view fails, because schema_b doesn't have select privilege to schema_a.licence. Since you're creating an object in the schema_b, schema_b must have the necessary privilege.
Grant it:
as schema_a (or an DBA - "admin account")
grant select on schema_a.licence to schema_b
then you should be able to create the view and then select from it.

Add Select and Write Privileges to User for Specific Table Names

I have created a new user using the below in sql developer (Oracle 11g). I have only two tables titled FEED_DATA_A and FEED_DATA_B that I want this user to be able to select, update and insert into. Can someone help me understand the SQL to create the proper privileges to accomplish that? I'm currently logged in as the system user.
CREATE USER "USER_A" IDENTIFIED BY "test123";
If you want to grant the privileges directly to the user
GRANT select, update, insert
ON table_owner.feed_data_a
TO user_a;
GRANT select, update, insert
ON table_owner.feed_data_b
TO user_a;
More commonly, though, you would create a role, grant the role to the user, and grant the privileges to the role. That makes it easier in the future when there is a new user created that you want to have the same privileges as USER_A to just grant a couple of roles rather than figuring out all the privileges that potentially need to be granted. It also makes it easier as new tables are created and new privileges are granted to ensure that users that should have the same privileges continue to have the same privileges.
CREATE ROLE feed_data_role;
GRANT select, update, insert
ON table_owner.feed_data_a
TO feed_data_role;
GRANT select, update, insert
ON table_owner.feed_data_b
TO feed_data_role;
GRANT feed_data_role
TO user_a

v$Instance permission errors

I wanted to create a view that looked something like the following but i keep getting an ORA-01031 - insufficient permission error
create view v_dbinfo as
Select INSTANCE_NAME,HOST_NAME from v$instance;
I can select from v$instance, and create a view from an existing table without any problems.
Any idea on why this is occurring and how i can go about fixing it?
Thanks
I would tend to wager that you have access to V$INSTANCE via a role rather than as a direct grant. If you want to create a view (or reference V$INSTANCE in a definer's rights stored procedure), you would need to have been granted access to the referenced objects via direct grants, not via a role.
In addition, if you intend on granting access to this new view to other users, you will need the access to V$INSTANCE to be granted using the WITH GRANT OPTION clause, i.e.
GRANT SELECT ON v$instance
TO your_user_name
WITH GRANT OPTION;
