PL/SQL: Statement ignoredIMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
2)TNS entry of 11g database put into 9i database version.
a)During export (trying to take exp dump from 11g db in 9i exp utility),getting below error
EXP-00008: ORACLE error 1455 encountered
ORA-01455: converting column overflows integer datatype
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully
Kindly advice me to overcome from this issue.

you can use VERSION parameter in datapump and make this workable.
Cheers,
lkmYou cannot, since 9.x does not use datapump. The VERSION parameter can only be used if the target is 10.x or above

Table export from higher version

Hi,
I have two database servers one on Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 -- 64bit and the other one in Oracle 9.2.0.4.0
I have a table in 10.2... and I want it to be exported to 9.2.... I know that exports from higher version could not be imported with lower version. How can I do this?
I have not yet tried to import with 9.2 so I don't have any error messages.
Thanks,

Well, you already got answers for this one. Just adding the relevant topic from the Utilities manual.

Importing dump taken from higher version to lower version

Hi all,
I have already taken dump from oracle 9.0.2 database without using exp utility of lower verion and alo without running catexp.sql script prior to export.
Now i need to import this dump into 9.0.1 database.It gives error due to backward-incompability.
Is there any way to import without re-exporting whole database again using exp utility of lower version against higher version.

It is an unsupported scenario. I had to face it once with the same 920->901 versions. What I did was also absolutely unsupported at my own risk and it was a last chance action. I'll tell you what I did and how it worked for me, which doesn't mean it will work for any situation. If you open your file with a binary file editor you will see at the first file blocks a header that displays the export version "EXPORT:V09.02.00" This header is read by the import to check which version was used to generate the file and prevent an unsupported downgrade, I changed it to EXPORT:V09.00.01 and retried the import. A lot of error messages appeared, but it successfully loaded my information. I took the risk because I made sure this specific database contained just basic tables, indexes and version compatible objects and definitions, it was a testing environment, I didn't have the right Oracle version and there was no time to get it, and finally I had a bullet proof backup.

Transporting a model in VC from higher version to lower version

Hi All,
How can i transport a model built in higher version to lower version.(EHP1 to 700.14 of Portal)
Also, will all my fuctionality work there if it is transported?
I have imported a model built on higher version of Sandbox to lower version of Dev server by changing its version manually by opening the model in notepad.But after deployment i am not able to see any of the functionality working.Such as-I am not able to submit the data enetred in the data fields.
Please help.
Thanks & Regards

Adding some points to the above question.
Also,I cannot clear entries from the data fileds, as there is not System Action defined for clear in version 700.14.
Please suggest,what changes shall i make.

Step by Step EXP / IMP database from Oracle 9i to Oracle 11g

Please help on the captioned where I did the below
1. Use EXP to export the database from a Oracle9i database (O9_DB) OLD_Windows2003_SERVER
2. Install the Oracle 11g (default service name is ORCL) to a new Windows 2003 server and use the IMP to import the O9_DB, however, I need to create the same physical path as the OLD_Windows2003_SERVER (e.g E:\Oralce_9i\Ordata\) in order to complete the IMP
3. I can launch the SQL Developer and obtain the records count of evey tables being imported
However, is there any best / proper way to do the EXP/IMP, the ideal outcome would be
1. Create a new namespace say (OLDDB) which same as the Oracle9i database name so maybe I don't need to modify much on the application side to point to the new database ?
2. IMP the OLDDB to the new namespace OLDDB
Thanks in advance

Hello,
If you create the new Database on a new Server, you could keep the same name for the Database.
To switch from the old Database to the new one, you'll have to change the hostname on the "tnsnames.ora" or in any configuration file which define the database connexion.
About the best way to do the Export/Import, you may have some details on the link below:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10819/expimp.htm#i262317
Else, why do you intend to stay on a Windows 2003 Server, why not moving to Windows 2008 ?
NB: Oracle *11.1* is certified on Windows 2008 and Oracle *11.2* is certified on Windows 2008 R2.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

How to use exp,imp in oracle 8i version....

Hi developer ...
I am using oracle 8i version in windows xp platform. Can you please explain how to export and import my tables in to export.txt file.
with
Regards
sure...:)--

Hi,
Did you want to downgrade from 8i to 7.0, 7.3 and 8.0 ?
To downgrade, you need to use the export utility from the target database.
So, you will need three export files :
Run the 7.0 export to export from the 8i database, and import into a 7.0 database with the 7.0 import utility.
Same for 7.3 and 8.0 database.

Problem with ORA-06502 when exp/imp between two identical versions

Hi
I have two identical systems, one system that I develop on and
the test system. The two systems have the same version of the
Portal. When I export and then import the application from the
systems I get a error message on the test system.
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number
conversion error (WWV-11230)
This error does not appear on the developing system.
The application I have is a form on a table, and I have some
buttons with PL/SQL handels on them. I tried to remove this code
and export with no luck.
Please help.
The system:
Windows NT
Oracle Portal 3.0.8.9.8
Thanks
Jvrgen Swensen

Could you pls confirm : Have you exported & Imported the shared
components used by that form?
If you are not too worried about the templates/fonts then try
this:
Click on "Edit" link against that form and click "OK".
Thanx,
Chetan.

Exp/imp, convertion from byte to char.

Hi,
I have a dump file exported from a database with nls_lenght_sematics=BYTES. When i import it into a database with nls_lenght_sematics=CHAR, it is retaining the BYTE charecteristics. Is there any way to change it into CHAR while importing. This for globalization support.
Thanks
Muneer

Hi Muneer,
No, import always preserve the LENGTH semantics of the original columns.
The workaround is to create your schema objects in the traget database first, with the desired semantics, prior to the importing the data.

Conversion from higher value to lower

Hi,
I have a variable of dec type length 17 which i need to copy in variable of type dec with length 16. Please let me know the shotest solution for the same.

I don't think you can use offsets with packed fields.
I would just check to make sure the amount in the source field is not too large for the destination and then if it's not, just do a MOVE.

Error while transporting function grp from lower version to higher version

Dear Experts,
While transporting the function group and function modules from system A to system B, I am getting the below error
"Program SAPLZATSCSNG_EINB, Include LEINBF10: Syntax error in line 000068
Field 'GF_ETS_MODIFIED' is unknown. It is neitherin one of the specified tables nor defined by a 'D"
System A is a lower version SAP system and system B is a higher version. I compared the code of Include LEINBF10 in both the systems and there is a data declaration of field GF_ETS_MODIFIED in system B. But this is missing in system A.
Please guide me for this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Thankyou for your reply Rob.
Actually I am transporting the function group and modules from my development system to the client development system.
I dont have any other option but transport the files.
Is there any possibility to modify the include without applying a patch or upgrading my system?

Import from higher to lower version is possible ?

Hi,
One of my production database is in 10.2.0.3 version and development is in 10.2.0.1 version?
I need to refresh dev database from prod. Export/import is possible in this scenario ?
Thanks,
Dasarath

Cj wrote:

Yes. Its possible.
Use 9i exp/imp to do this.
ThanksWhy 9i ? :-) I believe this is misleading info :-)
You will need to use the lower database version executables (in this case 10.2.0.1) to perform the export and import.

Export from higher APEX version to lower version

Hello,
Is there anyway to export an application from APEX version 3.0? Oracle 11G to version 2.2? Oracle 10G? Any help greatly appreciated.
Sharon

Bharat,
When 3.1 is released, say early 2008, you can make your decision based on the information in the Release Notes and related collateral which should provide a useful synopsis of new features.
The database version you select is an independent decision.

Running OMBPlus and EXP/IMP in mixed version environment

OWB Mixed Environment Guru's
Current environment:
OWB Client: 10.1.0.2.0 on Windows XP Professional
OWB Server side: 10.1.0.2.0 on UNIX (AIX 5.2)
Repository: Oracle 9.2.0.4 on UNIX (AIX 5.2)
UNIX Listener: 9.2.0.4 on UNIX (AIX 5.2)
Runtime Repository: Oracle 9.2.0.4 on UNIX (AIX 5.2)
I call this a mixed environment since my OWB stuff is 10g and my database stuff is 9.2.
Issues:
1- I can't get the command line exp.sh script to connect to the repository and returns the famous 'ORA-12154, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor'. It looks like the 'owbsetenv.sh' script is changing the value of $ORACLE_HOME to point to the 10g areas. Could that be then causing the system to look for a 10g LISTENER which doesn't exist since all my databases are 9.2.0.4???
2- I have the same issue trying to run OMBPlus.sh.
I am ultimately trying to set up a promotion process using the UNIX command line programs (exp/imp and OMBPlus) to get objects from the TEST environment into the PRODUCTION environment which is a separate repository and target schema on a different machine.
Any advice on how to successfully operate in this 'mixed' environment is most welcomed.
Many thanks!
Gary

Well it looks like I did it again!
Total brain fart.
The problem turned out that I wasn't specifying the entire SERVICE_NAME for the repository database. I had been leaving off the domain information. Must be a habit from not having to use it in the TNSNAMES.ORA files.
I was able to compelte my test export and connect to OMBPLUS and will now try my test import.
Sorry to clutter the forum but if it helps anyone else with the same affliction I seem to have frequently, I guess that's a small reward.
Until next time.
