Error using Logminer, Please help !

Question

I am trying to understand how to use logminer.
I have a database (oracle 9.2.0.4)and have completed the following steps:
1) set the UTL_FILE_DIR parameter.
2) Run the dbmslm.sql and dbmslmd.sql scripts
3) Created a directory and a file under that database
/oracle/vbi/eltest/logmnr/dict_01.ora
where :
Database name : eltest
Directory name: logmnr ( lrwxrwxrwx permissions)
Dict file : dict_01.ora (-rwxrwxrwx permissions)
4) I checked for the V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS, V$LOGMNR_DICTIONARY views just to make sure whether the dbmslm.sql and dbmslmd.sql were executed.
Now I am trying to extract the data dictionary to an external file, but it gives me error.
SQL> EXECUTE LOGMNR_DBMS_D.BUILD('dict_01.ora','/oracle/vbi/eltest/logmnr/', OPTIONS=>DBMS_LOGMNR_D.STORE_IN_FLAT_FILE);
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01336: specified dictionary file cannot be opened
ORA-29280: invalid directory path
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR_D", line 928
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR_D", line 2016
ORA-06512: at line 1
Can anyone please tell me why I am getting this error and what I need to resolve it ?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

could you post the utl_file_dir parameter value?
This is clearly indicates that the problem is related to the directory.
