Problem compiling view when it is referencing a table in an other view: insufficient privileges

When you have permission to perform an action at the command line but not within a definer's rights stored procedure (and I hope you're using a stored procedure here, not a stored function), the problem is almost certainly that the privilege you need has been granted through a role, not directly to the user that owns the procedure. Inside a definer's rights stored procedure, only privileges that have been granted directly to the owner of the procedure can be used-- privileges granted through a role (such as DBA) cannot be used.

You can verify that the problem is, in fact, that the privilege is granted through a role by disabling roles and then trying to create the user, i.e.

SQL> set role none;
SQL> create user ...

Assuming that fails, as I expect it will, you would need to grant the owner of the function the CREATE USER privilege directly

SQL> grant create user to <<owner of procedure>>

Then, you should be able to create users even with roles disabled and the stored procedure should work.

I'm not sure if I'm understanding your question properly. I created a user with the ability to create views for his own schema.

SQL> create user view_user identified by password default tablespace users quota unlimited on users;

User created.

SQL> grant create session, create table, create view to view_user;

Grant succeeded.

SQL> connect view_user
Enter password: 
Connected.
SQL> CREATE TABLE Members (ID number(10), Name varchar2(100), Street_No varchar2(100), ZIP number(5), City varchar2(100));

Table created.

SQL> CREATE VIEW MembersNamesOnly AS SELECT ID, Name FROM Members;

View created.

SQL>
