dbWriteTable and dbAppendTable get ORA-00955 error table already exists

[capitantyler]

I have an Oracle Connection

_> DBI::dbGetInfo(conn)
$dbname
[1] ""
$dbms.name
[1] "Oracle"
$db.version
[1] "19.00.0000"
$username
[1] "USR_REPORTE_FRAUDES"
$host
[1] ""
$port
[1] ""
$sourcename
[1] "Default"
$servername
[1] "xxxxxx.redlink.com.ar:1521/PRULES_SRV"
$drivername
[1] "SQORA32.DLL"
$odbc.version
[1] "03.80.0000"
$driver.version
[1] "12.01.0020"

$odbcdriver.version
[1] "03.52"
$supports.transactions
[1] TRUE
$getdata.extensions.any_column
[1] TRUE
$getdata.extensions.any_order
[1] TRUE
attr(,"class")
[1] "Oracle" "driver_info" "list"_

And I tried to dbWriteTable 2 times with append = TRUE or dbAppendTable. But neither works.

dbWriteTable(

• conn = conn,
• name = Id(

• schema = "USR_REPORTE_FRAUDES", table = "TIPO_CAMBIO3"
  

• ),
• value = iris,
• batch_rows = 1,
• append = TRUE
• )
  Error: nanodbc/nanodbc.cpp:1710: HY000
  [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-00955: este nombre ya lo está utilizando otro objeto existente

dbAppendTable(

• conn = conn,
• name = Id(

• schema = "USR_REPORTE_FRAUDES", table = "TIPO_CAMBIO3"
  

• ),
• value = iris,
• batch_rows = 1
• )

Thanks. Are you using the ROracle package to connect? This is unlikely to be an issue with the DBI package.

I am using odbc, where
I spotted better the problem in this issue:
