What is the data type of the column with the missing index? Long columns cannot be snapshot, but you can build your own snapshot log table and pl/sql procedure to accomplish it, provided the long is less than 32K. You can snapshot CLOBs, but if the snapshot has a context index, this will not work. What you need to do is to drop the context index on the snapshot, perform the refresh, and then re-establish the context index.
