Hi everyone,

I 'm pretty sure, many had run into this problem before and can provide some
help.
When I try to drop one of my user, I get the following:

SQL > drop user theuser cascade;

ORA-00604 (See ORA-00604.ora-code.com): error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01418 (See ORA-01418.ora-code.com): specified index does not exist

What index it 's talking about, metalink says this is related to some data
corruption in data dictionnary, but doesn 't provide a solution.


We run Oracle Database 10g Release 10.1.0.3.0 on Linux.

Thank you.
