Hi,
we got the same problems but it seems that the biggest free block in this index-Tblsp is not big enough for the next extent (10240).
I guess you need to add a datafile or reorganize the indexes inside the tblsp (alter index xxxx rebuild)

Firstly what is your tablespace pctincrease ? If its
greater than 0 thats is your problem because each new
extent is going to 100+pctincrease of the last.
Also do check the index creation sql to check its
pctincrease is also 0.
Also check the next extent (both tablespace and
index), it is best if it is no larger than the
initial extent.

You do not say what version of Oracle you are on, but
if 8i or above then use Locally Managed Tablespaces
for all (except system which comes in 9i). It just
makes your task so much easier and helps stop this
kind of thing.
Also, its kind of obvious I know, but you do have
your data and indexes in different tablespaces ?
