b) Execute the following query to find out what are the indexes that still have pending rows in DR$PENDING:

connect as ctxsys:

select u.username, i.idx_name

from dr$index i, dba_users u

where u.user_id=i.idx_owner#

and idx_id in (select pnd_cid from dr$pending);

Synchronize those indexes manully, running:

exec ctx_ddl.sync_index('USERNAME.INDEX');

or u can generate sql using:

select count(*) from ctxsys.dr$waiting

select count(*) from ctxsys.dr$pending

select 'exec ctx_ddl.sync_index('''||u.username||'.'||i.idx_name||''')'

from ctxsys.dr$index i, dba_users u

where u.user_id=i.idx_owner#

and idx_id in (select pnd_cid from ctxsys.dr$pending);
