Hi all Having some tough time to find out why star transformation is not happening in a DWH. Running in 10.2.0.4.2 Linux x86_64. Fact tables have proper bitmap indexes on the FK (rely disabled novalidate) against the dimensions. I have 10053 some queries and noticed this: ST: Trying star transformation on SEL$1 (#1) ST: Query Block Text for building subqueries : Query here............. (select ..... sum() from FACT1 F, DIM1, DIM2, DIM3, DIM4 .... group by) ST: Access path not generated for FACT1 Alias: F ST: ST not done on SEL$1 (#1) I have checked Star Transformation restrictions and the query is good enough to satisfy all conditions. Any one come across with these 10053 messages? Thanks -- LSC
