Re: Privilege mess?

Quoting Christoph Moench-Tegeder <cmt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

Schema privileges.
provileges. I'd guess you miss USAGE on schema logger.

Thanks for the hint. I did not know about a usage grant coming from Oracle, so I completely ignored the possibility of the absence of a different grant. I just read the documentation but I cannot get grip on the sense behind it:

'For schemas, ... this allows the grantee to “look up” objects within the schema. Without this permission, it is still possible to see the object names, e.g. by querying the system tables.'

Does it not say you do not need the usage privilege as you can query the data catalog anyway to get the object's details? And in deed, DBeaver queries the details of the object without the usage privilege.

To carry out actions on objects one needs the specific grant like select anyway. I do not see the point of usage privilege.

I would be grateful I some could shed some more light for me.

Kind regards Thiemo
