Import problem with DMP file

Hi all
I am using oracle 9i and I have problem in import problem.........
when i try to import the DMP file it gives me the error,
IMP-000200: long column Too larege for column buffer size <22>
can any body please tell me how to get out of this error....
actually I have a table in export file that has round about 2 lac rows....
The problem occurs on that table.
Any help will be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance

The correct error code is IMP-00020 not 200
What's your current buffer set to when imp?
IMP-00020: long column too large for column buffer size (number)
Cause: The column buffer is too small. This usually occurs when importing LONG data.
Action: Increase the insert buffer size 10,000 bytes at a time (for example). Use this step-by-step approach because a buffer size that is too large may cause a similar problem.
As adviced, increase 10000 and try again.

  • Importing problems with MP4 files.

    A friend of mine wanted me to make a DVD  with some media files that they sent me (all with .mp4 extentions). I've just purchased CS6 Premuin Pro so I thought I'd try ENCORE to do it with (previously I've been using DVDStyler). However I had problems with importing the mp4 files they sent. Some of the files import OK, but with others I get this error:
    Couldn't import file FILENAME, Quicktime and/or the appropriate codec do not appear to be installed.
    Now I did have Quicktime Alternative, along with the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack installed. Did a bit of searching and found advice to remove the K-Lite pack and Quicktime Alternative, and update with Quicktime and another set of Codecs (I've installed the Windows 7 codec pack v4.06, as I'm using Win7). However, I'm still getting the same error message when I try and import some of the files. I don't know their origin or what created them as such. However, I did download a copy of MediaInfo and got the following for each type of file.

    Just what is the problem here? Why will the first type of file import OK, but the second not, and what can be done about that (do I need to load an extra codec, and if so what)?  The odd thing is that using a program like DVDStyler, I can load those files and actually build a DVD. And yes, I know that's an entirely different program, but it just seems odd to me that an open-source program seems to do something Encore can't (and I'd much rather use Encore to build DVDs). No doubt this is something obvious but I'm a novice with Encore and Premiere, so I'm missing it anyway.

    Codec packs, even the "better" ones, do not typically provide codecs that Premiere and Encore can use.
    The "problem" file is a flash format (whether it is an mp4 container or not).
    "Consumer" type DVD authoring/burning applications, and even more so, all in one apps like windows movie maker etc, may be more "powerful" when you are trying to take a large range of formats and create a DVD with relatively few options. This is not Encore's strength.
    Encore will reject almost anything that has flaws it isn't able to handle, but more importantly (once you get to this step), it will treat as noncompliant (and  re-transcode) anything that is not DVD compliant.
    My guess is that you need to get  the flash into something that will work better for transcoding to DVD compliant.
    I would first try to bring one of the problem files into Adobe Media Encore, and see if you can export an MPEG2-DVD file.
    Not that, while there are some less known DVD resolutions, I assume you are going to end up with 720x576 PAL. I wonder what the quality will look like....
    If you are just looking to get the files onto a DVD to play on a DVD player, just stick with DVDStyler.

  • Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

    problems with .ARW files and auto toning
    let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
    now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
    Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
    but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
    allow me to explain
    lets say I import 100 images
    i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
    as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
    i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
    for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
    one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
    to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
    how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
    i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
    but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
    now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
    any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
    there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
    second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
    thanks for the help

    sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
    i've disabled it now
    thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
    its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
    but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
    because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
    so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
    is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
    its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
    what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.

    I think the real problem is that you don't check the return value from read (it's probably less than data.length indicating an incomplete read). Isn't there a readFully somewhere?

  • Import a 10g DMP file into a 9.2.0.5 instance

    Is it possible to import a 10g DMP file into a 9.2.0.5 instance? Thanks
    in advance for your thoughts.

    No, do NOT run the catexp.sql from 9i in your 10g db! That was only a valid method with Oracle 6/7 and Oracle 7/8!
    Just use the Oracle 9.2 version of exp to create the dumpfile from the 10g database. You can use SQL*Net to connect to the 10g db from your 9.2 server connecting like system/manager@tnsname. Then use 9.2 imp to import the dumpfile into your 9.2 db.
    If you have access to Metalink please refer to the following note for full details on compatibility between Oracle releases for exp/imp: 132904.1

    Why?
    Thank you in advance

    There is nothing you are doingt wrong, the web people need to check their Flash stuff, most importantly realyl include al lthe files you provide them with. there's a reason why it spits out 4 files...

  • Problem with NEF files from Nikon D4

    Hi everyone. I find a problem with nef files from my Nikon D4. When files are open in ViewNX2 (free viewer software from Nikon) they are perfect, as shooted... but in ACR they are very different... I use LR4 or CS5 with ACR 6.7 and the difference seems to be linked at D-Lighting function. My impression is that ACR dont read this option and picture are very very dark that original shootings. Anyone have this problem?

    This question used to be answered in the FAQ before they revised it.  So, here we go again.  ViewNX is capable of reading all of the in-camera settings such as, camera profile, saturation, sharpness and other settings.  It is capable of doing this because it is Nikon Software, and they have the ability to program it to read the settings from their raw images.  Lightroom does not read those settings from Nikon cameras or any other brand of camera.  Part of the reason is that different camera makers store those settings differently.
    When I first started using Lightroom I adjusted one of my images that represented what I normally shoot until it looked the way I wanted it.  Then I saved those adjustments as my default settings for the camera.  From that point onward, whenever I import images those settings are automatically applied, and it takes care of the vast majority of my images.  Of course, I still have to make individual adjustments.  But my default settings greatly reduce the amount of how they work that I have to do.
    Active D-lighting is is one of those features that Lightroom does not recognize.  You would be well advised not to use it, or else create a preset to simulate its effect.  It will provide no benefit to your Lightroom work.
    This is a fundamental difference with Lightroom, and something that must be understood and implemented if you are going to use the program effectively.
    I realize this question was asked in the ACR forum and I referenced Lightroom throughout.  But the principle is the same, and the recommended procedure is the same.

  • Problem with applet file loading

    I have a problem with loading files into a java applet. import java.applet.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;

         private static ArrayList<String> SGM;
         public void init() {

              try {

                   while(fScanner.hasNextLine()) {
                        SGM.add(fScanner.nextLine());
                   //System.out.println(SGM.get(0));
              } catch(Exception e) {
                   System.out.println("Applet threw error: "+e);
    ...The problem is with File fHandle = new File(gameDir+"game.sgm"); I tried putting File(gameDir+"/game.sgm"); and appending / to the folder in the <PARAM> tag, but it still changes it to \, which means I can only run it locally, and in Windows. Why is it doing this, and how can I fix it?

    This file you were hoping to load: it's on the server, right? Not on the computer where the applet is running in a browser?
    (At least that's a common mistake made by people when they write their first applet.)
    If that's the case then you can't use a File object to access a file on a different computer. To access a file on the server, first you will have to put the file in a place on the server where it can be downloaded. Then in your applet you need to get a URL for the file. (The getDocumentBase() method can be used to prevent you from having to hard-code the full URL for the file.) Next, "this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(URL)" gets you an InputStream from which you can read the data from the file.

  • RH7 problem with FPJ files

    We are having a problem with missing files in R7. I've never seen all the files become .FPJ files. They were .htm files and now they are all .fpj - not sure what to do besides change the file extension and try to import all the files back into the project. Our group is quite perplexed.
    Result after trying to change file extension:
    No success in this.
    We still have an output, so we have the .htm files with the content, so we'll be recreating the project.

    Suzie
    I have created a new thread as your problem relates to RH7, not the RH8 problem that is running currently. Also I have moved it to the RH HTML forum as it is specific to that edition.
    I cannot say RH did not do that but I completely fail to see how. Unlike some specialised programs, RH has no function to change file extensions and if reverting it to HTM does not put things right, then I would say something else has clobbered your project.
    You say you are going to use the output files. That is not a simple task. The link below explains what you will need to do.
    http://www.robowizard.com/RoboWizard/NewProject.htm#MonthlyScry/062004.htm
    You will still lose various features introduced in later versions of RoboHelp. My Opening RH Projects may help you there, depending on whether other file extensions have been affected.
    Do you not have any backup procedures in place?

    it's non possible to treat binary data as String!

  • What is the exact problem with this file?

    Hi all,
    There is an old form , which was not in use from many days.
    Now when we tried to run the form, i got the error saying "FRM-40734:Internal Error:Pl/SQL error occured.", in the login form.
    When i tried to open the fmb file in Oracle Forms Builder 6i, i got the following error:
    FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library d2kwutil. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved., but the fmb file got open.
    The login button has the following code:
    DECLARE
      UNAME VARCHAR2(30);
      --USER_ID PARAMLIST;
      V_USER APUSERMA.USER_NAME%TYPE;
      V_PASSWED APUSERMA.USER_PASSWD%TYPE;
    BEGIN

    where user_CD = :TI_USER_NAME AND user_PASSWD = :IT_USER_PASSWD
    AND SYSDATE BETWEEN USER_VALID_FRM AND USER_VALID_TO;
    :global.user_id  := substr(win_api_environment.read_registry('HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\control\computername\computername','computername'),1,10);
    :global.compname := :compname;

    --USER_ID := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('USER_id_NAME');
    call_form('Forms\MAIN_SCREEN',hide,DO_REPLACE);

      MESSAGE('Incorrect Username or Password.  Please Re-Enter');
      message(' ');
      RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
    END;
    EXIT_FORM;
    When i tried to compile, i got error saying ,
    Error 201 at line 10, column 28
    identifier 'WIN_API_ENVIRONMENT.READ_REGISTRY' must be declared.
    I am not getting to know What is the exact problem with this file?

    What does it do??
    If i comment the following line , will it be a problem??
    :global.user_id  := substr(win_api_environment.read_registry('HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\control\computername\computername','computername'),1,10);
    Because i commented the above line & compiled, so it is not giving any error now.
    So please tell me what win_api_environment.read_registry does??
    it's read windows registry value. So, no problem if you comment it.
    Thanks

  • Problem with .sitx files (Safari but not Firefox???)

    Hi All,
    I have a website online (with help from iWeb and BBEdit) but am having a problem I cant figure out (this IS my first website!)
    I am hoping that someone much more knowledgeable than me can help me with it.
    I basically have a download section. Icons and desktops.
    Now, when I (or anyone else) tries to download- everything seems to be fine in FireFox (even IE!) but not in Safari.
    My desktops are compressed as .zip files. No problems there, everyone can download and open (including Safari users!)
    My icons are compressed as .sitx files. This is where the problems come in. Firefox and IE download them no problem ('save to disk?' etc) However when one attempts to download the icons (.sitx files) with Safari it simply displays pages of gibberish (starting with the word 'Stuffit') which I am presuming is Safari trying to 'display' the contents of the actual stuffit file.
    Why is this? Why wont safari simply download the .sitx files as it does .zip files?
    Does Safari have some sort of inherent problem with .sitx files? Is it some sort of configuration within Safari preferences? or (and probably most likely!) is it something I have done wrong?
    Oh, my website (page in question!) can be found here:

    Thanks in advance for all your valuable help
    Kind regards

    Hi,
    It sounds like the server the website/file is hosted on is not identifying the type correctly. As you've seen, different browsers will handle this situation differently.
    Have a read of this article:

    Hope that helps.
