关于ORA-02273错误，以前还真没有仔细留意过。昨天遇到了这个问题，遂顺便总结一番，以后遇到这类问题就可以直接用下面方案解决。如下所示，我们首先准备一下测试环境。

 

CREATE TABLE TEST.TEST 
(  OWNER            VARCHAR2(30),
   OBJECT_ID        NUMBER,
   OBJECT_NAME      VARCHAR2(30) 
);


CREATE INDEX TEST.IX_TEST_N1 ON TEST.TEST(OBJECT_ID)  TABLESPACE TEST_DATA;


ALTER TABLE TEST.TEST ADD CONSTRAINT PK_TEST PRIMARY KEY (OBJECT_ID) USING INDEX TABLESPACE TEST_DATA;


CREATE TABLE TEST.RF_TEST
(
    ID           NUMBER,
    OBJECT_ID    NUMBER
);


ALTER TABLE TEST.RF_TEST ADD CONSTRAINT PK_RF_TEST  PRIMARY KEY(ID) USING INDEX TABLESPACE TEST_DATA;


ALTER TABLE TEST.RF_TEST ADD CONSTRAINT FK_RF_TEST FOREIGN KEY(OBJECT_ID ) REFERENCES TEST.TEST(OBJECT_ID);

 

如下所示，由于脚本上面的原因（没有指定主键约束对应的索引，而且又有其他索引在主键字段上，就会产生这种情况。暂时不清楚具体原因），导致TEST.TEST的主键约束对应的索引为IX_TEST_N1。 

 

SELECT OWNER
      ,CONSTRAINT_NAME
      ,CONSTRAINT_TYPE
      ,TABLE_NAME
      ,INDEX_NAME
FROM DBA_CONSTRAINTS
WHERE TABLE_NAME='TEST';

 

ORA-02273: this unique/primary key is referenced by some foreign keys_外键约束

 

 

此时假如我们要调整表TEST.TEST的主键，那么可以用下面脚本查看一下TEST表的主外键约束关系。如下所示：

 

SELECT DC.OWNER           AS "PARENT_TABLE_OWNER", 
       DC.TABLE_NAME      AS "PARENT_TABLE_NAME", 
       DC.CONSTRAINT_NAME AS "PRIMARY CONSTRAINT NAME", 
       DC.STATUS          AS "PRIMARY CONSTRAINT STATUS",
       DF.CONSTRAINT_NAME AS "REFERENCED CONSTRAINT NAME", 
       DF.STATUS          AS "FOREIGN CONSTRAINT STATUS",
       DF.STATUS          AS "CHILD_TABLE_OWNER", 
       DF.TABLE_NAME      AS "CHILD_TABLE_NAME" ,
       'ALTER TABLE ' || DF.OWNER  || '.' || DF.TABLE_NAME || ' DISABLE CONSTRAINT ' || DF.CONSTRAINT_NAME || ';'
FROM   DBA_CONSTRAINTS DC, 
       (SELECT C.OWNER, 
               C.CONSTRAINT_NAME, 
               C.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME, 
               C.TABLE_NAME,
               C.STATUS
        FROM   DBA_CONSTRAINTS C 
        WHERE  CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'R') DF 
WHERE  DC.CONSTRAINT_NAME = DF.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME 
       AND DC.OWNER =UPPER('&OWNER')
       AND DC.TABLE_NAME=UPPER('&TABLE_NAME');

 

删除表的主键约束时，报如下错误：“ORA-02273: this unique/primary key is referenced by some foreign keys”

 

SQL> ALTER TABLE TEST.TEST DROP CONSTRAINT PK_TEST;
ALTER TABLE TEST.TEST DROP CONSTRAINT PK_TEST
                                      *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02273: this unique/primary key is referenced by some foreign keys

 

我们用最上面脚本生成的禁用外键约束的脚本，禁用外键约束后，然后删除表TEST.TEST的主键约束，依然报ORA-02273错误。

 

 

ORA-02273: this unique/primary key is referenced by some foreign keys_ORA-02273_02

 

 

如上所示，不能通过先禁用外键约束，然后删除主键约束的这样操作，搜索了相关资料后，发现只能先删除外键约束，然后才能处理主键约束。

 

 

操作步骤如下:

 

1: 首先生成外键约束的创建脚本，后续删除外键约束后，需要重新创建外键约束。

 

ORACLE 11g或以上版本使用下面脚本：

 

--此脚本适用于Oracle 11g
SELECT  'ALTER TABLE ' || T1_OWNER || '.' || T1_TABLE_NAME
     || ' ADD CONSTRAINT ' || T1_CONSTRAINT_NAME
     || ' FOREIGN KEY (' || T1_COLUMN_NAMES || ')'
     || ' REFERENCES ' || T2_OWNER || '.' || T2_TABLE_NAME
     || '(' || T2_COLUMN_NAMES || ');' FK_SCRIPT
FROM
    (SELECT A.OWNER     T1_OWNER
          , A.TABLE_NAME T1_TABLE_NAME
          , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME T1_CONSTRAINT_NAME
          , B.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
          -- CONCATENATE COLUMNS TO HANDLE COMPOSITE
          -- FOREIGN KEYS
          , LISTAGG(A.COLUMN_NAME,', ') 
                  WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY A.POSITION) 
                  AS T1_COLUMN_NAMES
    FROM DBA_CONS_COLUMNS A
       , DBA_CONSTRAINTS B
    WHERE A.CONSTRAINT_NAME = B.CONSTRAINT_NAME
    AND B.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'R'
    GROUP BY A.OWNER 
           , A.TABLE_NAME
           , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME
           , B.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME
    ) T1,
    (SELECT A.OWNER              T2_OWNER
          , A.TABLE_NAME       T2_TABLE_NAME
          , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
          -- CONCATENATE COLUMNS FOR PK/UK REFERENCED
          -- FROM A COMPOSITE FOREIGN KEY
          , LISTAGG(A.COLUMN_NAME,', ')
               WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY A.POSITION)
               AS T2_COLUMN_NAMES
    FROM DBA_CONS_COLUMNS A
       , DBA_CONSTRAINTS B
    WHERE A.CONSTRAINT_NAME = B.CONSTRAINT_NAME
    AND B.CONSTRAINT_TYPE IN ( 'P', 'U' )
    GROUP BY A.OWNER
           , A.TABLE_NAME
           , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME ) T2
WHERE T1.T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME = T2.T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
  AND T1.T1_OWNER  = T2.T2_OWNER
  AND T2.T2_OWNER ='&OWNER'
  AND T2.T2_TABLE_NAME = '&TABLE_NAME';

 

 

ORACLE 11g之前版本使用下面脚本

 

--此脚本适用于Oracle 10g
SELECT  'ALTER TABLE ' || T1_OWNER || '.' || T1_TABLE_NAME
   || ' ADD CONSTRAINT ' || T1_CONSTRAINT_NAME
   || ' FOREIGN KEY (' || T1_COLUMN_NAMES || ')'
   || ' REFERENCES ' || T2_OWNER || '.' || T2_TABLE_NAME
   || '(' || T2_COLUMN_NAMES || ');' FK_SCRIPT
FROM
  (SELECT A.OWNER   T1_OWNER
    , A.TABLE_NAME T1_TABLE_NAME
    , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME T1_CONSTRAINT_NAME
    , B.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
    -- CONCATENATE COLUMNS TO HANDLE COMPOSITE
    -- FOREIGN KEYS [HANDLES UP TO 5 COLUMNS]
    , MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 1,
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 2,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 3,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 4,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 5,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL))
        T1_COLUMN_NAMES
  FROM DBA_CONS_COLUMNS A
     , DBA_CONSTRAINTS B
  WHERE A.CONSTRAINT_NAME = B.CONSTRAINT_NAME
  AND B.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'R'
  GROUP BY A.OWNER
         , A.TABLE_NAME
         , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME
         , B.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME
  ) T1,
  (SELECT A.OWNER    T2_OWNER
    , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
    , A.TABLE_NAME T2_TABLE_NAME
    -- CONCATENATE COLUMNS FOR PK/UK REFERENCED
    -- FROM A COMPOSITE FOREIGN KEY
    , MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 1,
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 2,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 3,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 4,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL)) ||
      MAX(DECODE(A.POSITION, 5,', '||
         A.COLUMN_NAME,NULL))
        T2_COLUMN_NAMES
  FROM DBA_CONS_COLUMNS A, DBA_CONSTRAINTS B
  WHERE A.CONSTRAINT_NAME = B.CONSTRAINT_NAME
  AND B.CONSTRAINT_TYPE IN ( 'P', 'U' )
  GROUP BY A.OWNER
         , A.TABLE_NAME
         , A.CONSTRAINT_NAME ) T2
WHERE T1.T1_OWNER = T2.T2_OWNER
  AND T1.T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME = T2.T2_CONSTRAINT_NAME
  AND T2.T2_OWNER ='&OWNER'
  AND T2.T2_TABLE_NAME = '&TABLE_NAME';

 

使用上面脚本生成的脚本为

 

 

ALTER TABLE TEST.RF_TEST ADD CONSTRAINT FK_RF_TEST FOREIGN KEY (OBJECT_ID) REFERENCES TEST.TEST(OBJECT_ID);

 

 

2：生成删除外键约束的脚本

 

SELECT 'ALTER TABLE ' 
       || OWNER || '.' || TABLE_NAME
       || ' DROP CONSTRAINT '
       || CONSTRAINT_NAME
       ||';' CONSTRAINT_DISABLE
FROM  DBA_CONSTRAINTS
WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'R'
AND STATUS = 'ENABLED'
AND R_CONSTRAINT_NAME IN
 (
   SELECT CONSTRAINT_NAME 
   FROM DBA_CONSTRAINTS
   WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE IN ('P', 'U')
    AND OWNER='&OWNER'
    AND TABLE_NAME = '&TABLE_NAME'
 );

 

执行上面脚本生成的脚本，删除外键约束。

 

SQL> ALTER TABLE TEST.RF_TEST DROP CONSTRAINT FK_RF_TEST;


Table altered.

 

 

3：删除表TEST.TEST的主键

 

SQL> ALTER TABLE TEST.TEST DROP CONSTRAINT PK_TEST;


Table altered.


SQL> SELECT OWNER 
  2        ,TABLE_NAME
  3        ,INDEX_NAME
  4  FROM DBA_INDEXES 
  5  WHERE  TABLE_NAME='TEST';


OWNER      TABLE_NAME                     INDEX_NAME
---------- ------------------------------ ------------------------------
TEST        TEST                           IX_TEST_N1


SQL>

 

如下所示，这种情况下，删掉了约束，并不会删除对应的索引。所以必须手工删除该索引

 

ORA-02273: this unique/primary key is referenced by some foreign keys_oracle_03

 

 

4： 在表TEST.TEST上增加主键约束， 在表TEST.RF_TEST上添加外键约束。

 

SQL> ALTER TABLE TEST.TEST ADD CONSTRAINT PK_TEST PRIMARY KEY(OBJECT_ID) USING INDEX TABLESPACE TEST_DATA;






Table altered.






SQL> ALTER TABLE TEST.RF_TEST ADD CONSTRAINT FK_RF_TEST FOREIGN KEY (OBJECT_ID) REFERENCES TEST.TEST(OBJECT_ID);






Table altered.






SQL>
