IMP-00010: not a valid export file (downward from 10.2.0.1 to 8.1.7.0)

Hi,
We have requirement to transfer User's all tables from 10.2.0.1 database to 8.1.7.0 database
I have successfully exported user along with all tables and its data from the 10.2.0.1 database,
now when i am doing import into 8.1.7.0, i am getting the following error :
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
when i searched the internet, in the one blog it mentions as below :
Oracle's exp/imp utilities are not downward compatible.
you must use 9.02.1 exp to extract from instance 9.02.03 and then you are able to imp into 9.02.1
so as per above, i will have to use 8.1.7.0 exp to extract from instance 10.2.0.1 database.
So, how it can be done ?????
where i have done mistake ???
With Regards

It seem you quoted me out of context. I was trying to point out that why read some blog entry of the 'net when the basic rules are clearly documented.
fbortel wrote:
Well in that very same piece of documentation it becomes clear you cannot export 10G, and import into 8i.Which section says this?
The table (if that's it) gives a few exampes: "Table 19-7 shows some examples "
I'm pretty sure that anything after Oracle8 should work. As long as you are using the right version of 'exp'.
But there is a Metalink Note that goes into more detail. (and should be more correct than my memory allows me)

IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification

Hi everyone,
I am new in oracle's world, and I've been working with an export from a sun platform, and I try to import to a windows platform. I've been receiving this message error
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
Please, help me I have to finish with that today..
Thanks and have a nice New Year

thanks for your answer.
sorry, but I don't have all exact information, because that export is comming from a client, and I don't know all information. I only know that the platform is sun.
I received the file via an usb memory, directly from the source.
I've been read that if you make an export in sun platform and it isn't as binary when you transfer it to a windows platform, it will be corrupt.
Could you confirm me that?

It should be like the very first time you synced your phone with I-Tunes. It will notice you haven't synced before and just copy everything from your phone into I-Tunes. It shouldn't delete anything from the phone, at least it never has for me. It just puts a copy of everything into I-Tunes and even if you delete an app for example from your phone and you decide you want it back later, you can just go back into I-Tunes and copy it back over. Hope this helps.

Video's are not valid exported files

I moved my entire Itunes library to an external hard drive to free space on my computer and because of this I've had to add everything back into Itunes. When I try and import any of the videos I used to have on it I get the error message: "Video does not appear to be a valid exported file." I don't know how to fix this and I want to be able to add my videos back. Should I just load them back onto the computer or not?

Have you ever experienced the following error message when you imported the db..?
Also I could see the import was not done successfully when I compared my ddlfileold.sql which is already done using this same dump file
My actions to make ddlfile
- I have tried three times to make ddlfile but I failed all and met the same error message.
try 1 : using 9210 version
try 2 : using 9206 version
try 3 : using 9206 version at other machine.
I need your advice and help.
Thanks,
Riaz.

This means the export dump file is corrupted.
In UNIX see this command to see whether the dump file is complete
$ tail expdat.dmp
It should have EXIT in the last line.

IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file

When I try to import my dump file i receive this error IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file even if my buffer is set to 2000000000.
Any help would be great.
Regards

The export file is probably from an aborted Export session. Better retry the export and then import it again, if possible.
If not possible, report this as an Import bug and submit the export file that caused this error to Oracle Support Services.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Import utility IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file.

IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file.
I have received a 34 GB dmp file exported using exp utility 9.2. and i am importing it into 10.2.0.1.0
1) Not sure wheher its exported from Unix or windows.. how to make out?
2)I imported using ...BIN>imp user1/pwd FILE=C:\exp.dmp
SHOW=y fromuser=user2 touser=user1 ROWS=Y IGNORE=y GRANTS=y Constraints=
y log=C:\exp.log
Note my login user and my to user are same and i have grant DBA to user1.
3)When i import, after an hour+ it terminates saying abruprt end of export file.
4)I am not aware of the command used for export whether its FULL DB or only user etc.... how to find out? from show = y i selected 1 username and used it as from user.
5)This file was sent to me through a FTP server from where i downloaded.
Plz help i need to import urgently, what should i be doing?

I also read that FULL=Y is not supported when i import 9i dmp into 10g dmp. Is it true?False
It is an export of the Backup it seems. What difference does it make if we export from DB Backup and export from DB itself?There is nothing called export of a backup.The dump is created by an oracle binary called EXPORT.
You can execute this command against an oracle database
exp username/pwd@hoststring file=c:\oracle\bk\test.dmp fully=y....and so on

Valid Exported File

I am trying to import a home video that I created into iTunes but I keep getting the error message "cannot be imported because it does not appear to be a valid exported file"
I used Windows Movie Maker to create the video.
Thanks for any suggestions you can send my way.
Cheers

I opened the sample pic in 12 Mac and Windows programs and uploaded it to Flickr and Zenfolio, and none complained (see the list below). I looked at the file with Exiftool and added some sample metadata -- Exiftool usually issues a warning if the file format isn't strictly standards-conforming.
So this may be a case where the file produced by LR strictly conforms to industry standards but has an internal layout that isn't typically used, tripping up software that doesn't correctly implement the standards. This has happened at least once before in previous releases of LR, and Adobe changed LR to avoid the problem.   I see hints of that possibility in the Exiftool dump -- JPEGs produced by LR CC have 102 unused bytes after the TIFF header, whereas typical JPEGs don't have those unused bytes.
You can test this hypothesis very quickly: Open the sample pic in Photoshop CC (or another editor if you don't have Photoshop) and save it out with Save As at the same high quality. (Other programs generally won't write those unused header bytes.)   Ask your clients to try uploading that version.
Also, ask your clients for the exact error message (letter for letter) and which software is powering their Web sites.   That could give better clues.

Infopath 2013 SOAP Web Service Data Connection - Error: The file is not a valid XML file

Here are the steps to replicate the issue I’m having when adding lists.asmx or any other SharePoint web service in InfoPath 2013. This web service opens fine in the browser from my desktop. My account is a farm administrator and is added to the
web application’s User Policy. I can use these services just fine using Nintex 2013 Workflow.
Open InfoPath Designer 2013.
Select Blank Form and click Design Form button.
Click “Data” tab.
Click “From Web Service” and select “From SOAP Web Service”
Enter https://mysiteurl.com/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?WSDL for the web service definition.
Click Next.
Windows Security window pops up.
Enter a credential. I tried both my account and the farm account. My account is a farm admin and is added to the web application’s User Policy with Full Control.
Click OK. It prompts for credential multiple times.
I get below this error messages:
Sorry, we couldn't open https://mysiteurl.com/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?WSDL
InfoPath cannot find or cannot access the specified Web Service description.
The file is not a valid XML file.
Not enough storage is available to process this command.
We have a project that is in need of these services using InfoPath so any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Brian_TX,
For your issue, try to the following methods:
Change your service binding in web.config to:binding="basicHttpBinding". It seems in VS it defaults to wsHttpBinding.
Replace all instances of "parameters" from the web service wsdl with the name "parameter"
There are some similar articles about the issue, you can have a look at them:

I have an older version of itunes on my L drive. Everytime I try to download the newest version I get the error itunes.resources is not a valid short file name. Now I obtained an iphone and cannot sync the phone to my account because it wants me to upda

I have an older version of itunes on a separate drive. Everytime that there has been an update to itunes it will not let me update. Now I purchased an iphone and I hooked the phone up to the computer and it tells me I need to install the latest version of itunes. I downloaded to try it, but I keep getting an error message that says itunes.Resources is not a valid short file name. What can I do from here?

That is a new one on me.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

"not a valid short file name" and "invalid character" install errors

Disclaimer: Apple does not necessarily endorse any suggestions, solutions, or third-party software products that may be mentioned in the topic below. Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information. Apple does not guarantee that these links will be maintained or functional at any given time. Use the information below at your own discretion.
Symptoms
While upgrading or uninstalling a Windows software application (such as iTunes for Windows or QuickTime for Windows), you may receive one of the following error messages:
file name is not a valid short file name
The folder path 'folder name' contains an invalid character.
... where file name could be the name of any file, and folder name could be the name of any folder.
In the case of software that uses advertised shortcuts (such as recent versions of iTunes for Windows or Safari for Windows), the messages may also appear when attempting to launch software that has already been installed.
Resolution
The error messages are usually caused by damage to the installation database for the application. Clearing the installation database for the application by using the Windows Installer CleanUp utility can usually get you past the error message.
(1) Click [here|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301] first, and read the important information about the utility.
(2) Click the *Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility package now* link on that page to download a file titled msicuu2.exe.
(3) Open the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install it.
(4) In your Start menu click *All Programs* and then click *Windows Install Clean Up.* The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(5) Select the software you're getting the "not a valid short file name" or "invalid character" message for from the list and click Remove.
(6) Click OK in the confirmation dialog that appears.
(7) If you have multiple entries for the software you're getting the "not a valid short file name" or "invalid character" message for, repeat steps 5 and 6 for the other entries for the software.
(8) Click Exit.
(9) Restart the computer.
If you were getting the "not a valid short file name" or "invalid character" message when trying to upgrade or launch software, now try reinstalling the latest version of the software.
If you were getting the "not a valid short file name" or "invalid character" message when just trying to uninstall software, program files for the software in question will remain on the PC after it has been removed by the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. If you want to remove leftover program files, check in at the appropriate forum at [Apple Discussions|http://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1] and ask which files can be safely removed.
