ORA-12991: column is referenced in a multi-column constraint (Related to GoldenGate)

After moving our 10g database to 11g with golden gate...our developers were complaining about ORA-12991: column is referenced in a multi-column constraint...This problem is related to enabling Supplemental Logging with "ALTER DATABASE ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA" , when u try to drop a column...First of all u have to find what  log_group_name causes the problem...

SQL> select log_group_name from dba_log_groups where table_name = 'TABLE_NAME' ;

LOG_GROUP_NAME
============================
GGS_DROP_COLS_24242


Then drop it;


SQL> alter table table_name drop supplemental log group GGS_DROP_COLS_24242;

table altered.
