Error while exporting............

Hi All,

OS: Windows NT.

Hi Vijay

Off hand I can say that you have lost connection to the database . The error "end-of-file on communication channel "
suggests so also check if the directory and file where you exporting exists "No such file or directory " error suggests so.
Rather you could post the export parfile as well . We can help

Hi,

This was the command that I used:

exp userid=uid/pwd file=exp.dmp log=exp.log.

Thanks.
Vijay.

Hi

Can you just give a path for example
like this and get back if it is working .

exp userid=uid/pwd file=c:\exp.dmp log=c:\exp.log.

Thanks.

Hi,

I tried like that. Still it behaves the same. Even in the previous methods the dumpfile was created in C drive only.

Thanks.
Vijay.

Hi

Weird it worked at my end . R u sure you are still connected ( thru sqlplus ) to the DB while the export is happening.
Do you receive an error message there I am worried about the "end of communication " error . It usually signifies when client loses connection with the server .
Please let us know so that we can help

Cheers

Hi,
try this:
exp userid/pwd@servicename file=c:\exp.dmp log=c:\exp.log
that should work if your Database is ok

The error show that you gets disconnected while you are taking the export backup. Please check whether the instance was up or not when you encounter that error during export.

check note 100405.1 on metalink.

Export may corrupt export file without any wanings if the object being exported was previously imported into the database.

Only affects 8.1.5, fixed in 8.1.6 and upwards.

Contact Oracle.

Guys, I need your help to overcome this.

Thanks.
Vijay.

Hi Vijay,

Check Doc Id: 1070143.6
Looks like a bug..

Hi,

But I am working on an NT environment.
If the libraries are wrong how do I relink in an NT environment?

Thanks.
Vijay.

all versions of Oracle server before 8.1.6 are pretty unstable under Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 6.0 and frequent internal errors cause the server to discontinue its operation

Looking in the alert log or looking through any trace files in your background_dump_dest may help diagnose the problem

Hi,

What was the status of the Instance after getting the error.
My understanding is that u r running the export from the server and NOT THE client. Please clarify.
Is the disk space enough to accomdate the dump file?
