PL/SQL script which removes all data from all tables of a database
I spent quite a bit of time today, because I needed something that removes all data from my oracle 11.0 database. I didn’t want to perform a drop command, as the tables should stay there. I tried it with the truncate command which failed because of the constraints.
This script disables all constraints, performs truncate commands on each table and re-enables the constraints. It’s generic and should work out of the box, that means you don’t have to change anything. Make sure that you run it as database user and not as sys user, otherwise it will fuck up the content of your tables 
NAME:
clean_stm_database.sql
PURPOSE:
This script first disables all constraints on all tables. In
the second step, all data is being truncated on all tables.
Last but not least, all constraints are re-enabled
INSTRUCTIONS:
Run this script as database user (e.g. STM_T)
