How to deploy Oracle Dimension table for OLAP Cubes

Question

I followed First Example as well as Second Example to create Cubes in Oracle 10g.

I tried to create cube using query rewrite mechanism in Oracle 10g.

(Intailly tried to create using Analystic workspace manager we got error in that too so only we went for query rewrite mechansism)

We succeded in creating table "PRODUCTS" Also we succedded in creating Dimension for that table "PRODUCTS"

But when we try to create Attribute for the above "PRODUCTS" table like below

BEGIN 
cwm_classify.remove_entity_descriptor_use(28, cwm_utility.DIMENSION_TYPE, 'SH', 'PRODUCTS');
COMMIT; 
END

we are getting following error.
Note : We have data inside table too

Error starting at line 1 in command:
begin 
cwm_classify.remove_entity_descriptor_use(28, cwm_utility.DIMENSION_TYPE, 'SH', 'PRODUCTS'); 
commit; 
end; 
Error report:
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "OLAPSYS.CWM$OLAP$DIMENSION", line 242

           application administrator or DBA.

When i googled i got suggestion like we have to deploy Dimension also before deploying Cubes.

So i'm trying to create OLAP Cubes for this i need to to deploy Dimension Tables in Oracle. Is there any way to deploy Dimension is that possible actually?

Suggest me how to do this?

Assuming you are using Analytic Workspace Manager, the OLAP documentation would be a good place to start:
