Thanks!

This has been reported several times on Metalink, always at 'exporting object type definitions'. There doesn't seem to be a solution from Oracle.
Try one of the following:
- Install the latest patch (although the same problem is reported for 9.2.0.4).
- Increase the buffer size.
- Check the database alert files.
- Make sure nobody is logged in.

Imp Exp utility in ubuntu 10.4 with oracle instant client 10

Hi,
I have a problem with the imp/exp utility on Ubuntu 10.4.
I have installed the oracle instant client 10, and I have followed this thread
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/admin.102/b25107/impexp.htm#CHDDBGDF]
So, I've set env variable in my .bashrc
ORACLE_HOME=/home/lucia/Programmi/instantclient10_1
export ORACLE_HOME
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/lucia/Programmi/instantclient10_1:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
PATH=/home/lucia/Programmi/instantclient10_1:${PATH}
export PATH
SQLPATH=/home/lucia/Programmi/instantclient10_1:${SQLPATH}
export SQLPATH
Sqlplus works fine, but when I try to use the utility exp/imp
exp DB_USER/DB_PW@DB_SCHEMA owner=DB_USER buffer=300000 LOG=DB_USER.log FILE=DB_USER.dmp compress=n
I have the following error:

Any suggestions?

LuciaHello,
I had the same problem. It was related to the shell script interpreter being used: it is really a bash script asking to be interpreted as sh. For the impatient, the solution was to change the first line of the script orarun.sh to read as:
#!/bin/bash
Explanation:
1. The script runfixup.sh calls orarun.sh. The latter is the one that fails starting at line 845.
2. The script is really a bash script as can be seen from the if syntax used. For example at line 191 we see the double equall sign ==:
if [ "`echo $SET_KERNEL_PARAMETERS | tr A-Z a-z`" == "true" ]
3. The bash man page says:
string1 == string2
string1 = string2
True if the strings are equal. = should be used with the test command for POSIX conformance.
string1 != string2
True if the strings are not equal.
(End of man page excerpt)
Notice in particular that for a bash script to be POSIX it should avoid the == and just use =
4. orarun.sh has on its first line #!/bin/sh. On my Ubuntu system, sh is a softlink to dash and the dash man page says:
s1 = s2 True if the strings s1 and s2 are identical.
s1 != s2 True if the strings s1 and s2 are not identical.
5. So this script script uses bash syntax but is interpreted by dash. It is possible that this worked fine for the Oracle developer if on their system sh was softlinked to bash (which is often the case). Apparently, one should then be very careful to not use idioms that are not POSIX compliant.
6. Another solution is to change the /bin/sh softlink from dash to bash. Personally, I was less comfortable doing this (the possible repercussions were wider than the proposed solution above).
After making the change, the script ran perfectly. I think the best solution is for Oracle to update the script to be POSIX compliant or to identify itself as bash.
Hope that helped,
Mark Gaber

EXP utillity has higher version than database - export failed !

Hi,
I have a Oracle8 Enterprise Edition Release 8.0.5.0.0 database on our server and I have installed a 9i client on my PC. Now I have to use the export utility to export a specific table from our DB, but as I read from 'Oracle9i Database Utilities' book:
"The version of the Export utility must be equal to the lowest version of the source or target database".
So, I guess I need to install a 8.0.5 client on my PC (I have W2K) but nobody can give me the install CD in the company:(
I've looked on the OTN page if I can find the needed version, but I found only the 8i (8.1.7) install kit. Do you think it shall work the EXP utility if I install that ? Or can I find somewhere else the 8.0.5 install kit ?
Thanks:
Szilard
PS: the error message what I got when I tried to export with 9i client from 8.0.5 DB:
C:\exp user/passw file=myexp.dmp tables=emp;
EXP-00056: ORACLE error 2248 encountered
ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully
, but the same command line from a 9i DB worked...

Since your target server is 8.0.5, you should have the EXP utility from a 8.0.x versions. Anything higher will not work.
HTH.

Can I use 9i imp/exp utility after installing 10g

Hello, all:
I have two database co-exist in one machine, one is 9i, another one is 10.2, which was just installed recently . Now I need to imp/exp the 9i database, I can't invoke 9i imp/exp utility anymore, even under 9i oracle_home, I can only get 10g's imp/exp screen comes up, can someone help me? Is there anyway that I can use both version of utility in the same machine?
Thanks a lot in advance.
wendy

I can't invoke 9i imp/exp utility anymoreThat might be because the 10G_ORA_HOME\BIN appears first in your PATH environment variable. Either put 9i_HOME\BIN first in your PATH or navigate to the BIN directory of 9i home and run the export/import from there.

No, you must use the imp utility from target database which is 10g.

Export only synonyms from EXP utility

Hi,
Is there any way possible to EXPORT only Synonyms from conventional EXPORT utility?
Thanks.

HI,
AFAIK its not possible to export and import just the synonyms..EXP can be used to export only tables, or only grants, or only indexes, BUT it don´t give to us an option to export only synonyms. The best way to "pass" only the synonyms to another db is to create a scrit with the necessary CREATE SYNONYM in sql*plus, selecting the data from DBA_SYNONYMS or ALL_SYNONYMS, as desired.
How to export and import public synonyms?

Satish is right, there exists bug for 11.1.0.6.

You need to be very carefull. What if the 'exp' script distroyed the database or truncate important tables.
You must be carefull naming the scripts that are reserved words for Oracle.

Can anyone please help me to sort this problem?

Export all tables in schema using exp utility

I need to export all the tables in a schema based on a where clause, how can I do this without having to identify all the tables in the tables= parameter?

You can get all the tables by doing a user-level export, i.e.
exp scott/tiger@TNS_name owner=scottwill export all Scott's tables. If you need to export only some of the tables owned by a particular user, you're stuck giving an explicit list until 10g.

Hi
I am using the following extra parameters for the exp:

a)Export dump was successfuly taken from 11g db
b)Getting below error,while import into 9i database

What's wrong with 8.1.7 export utility

I was trying to export an Oracle 8.1.6 database by using export
utility from Oracle 8.1.7 client. But I get a lot of errors.
When I try to export from Oracle 8.1.6 client everything goes
smoothly.
What's wrong with export utility in Oracle 8.1.7 client??
regards,
Evan

It is because for each new version there is more and different
things that need to be exported so the x+1 exp utility expects
the new things to be there and fails if they are not.
The reason I suspect Oracle did this is that most exports are
done on the server. It is not generaly a good idea to run exp
across a network for performance reasons (ie you move the entire
database). As most exports are done on the server the
comapability is not an issue.most bullet proof solution.
