ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Online Index Build
Oracle does support CREATE INDEX ONLINE and ALTER INDEX REBUILD ONLINE, but it's only for Enterprise Edition.
ORA-00439 means that the feature you were using is not enabled or supported in this edition which might be a standard edition (SE) or an express edition (XE).
Solutions
To solve ORA-00439, you should use feature in the enterprise edition (EE). To migrate from the standard edition to the enterprise edition, you may perform an in-place upgrade or install a new Oracle home for the enterprise edition.
