Symptoms

-- Problem Statement:
When a query involves more than 1 materialized view (mview) the explain plan shows that optimizer uses multiple mviews but nothing is returned and no errors are returned. This doesn't happen when a where condition is applied to the queries: the explain plan shows multiple mviews access and data are returned correctly. If a where condition that involves just one mview is added on select, correct data is retrieved.

-- Steps To Reproduce:
SELECT * from <mview name> where m5_id between 4102536 and 4102555
Here query rewrite works because only one mview is involved

Enlarging the query range
SELECT * FROM <mview name> where m5_id  between 4102536 and 4102560
No data is retrieved despite query rewrite seems to work.

Removing where condition returns all data correctly:
SELECT * FROM <mview name>
