The failing steps :
create table ODI_DEPLOY01.C$_0DATASOURCECSV ( C1 CLOB ) ;
works when done via sqlplus .
# sqlplus 'SYSTEM/<passwd>@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=10.0.xxxx)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(service_name=ocrcload.devopspub1.devopsalpha.oraclevcn.com)))'
Connected to:
Oracle Database 12c EE Extreme Perf Release 12.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
SQL> create table ODI_DEPLOY01.C$_0DATASOURCECSV

I have be struggling with this for a couple of days. Is there anyone who could explain a more detailed explanation of what is wrong ?
How do I open a support ticket ?
