error import after full export

[raf]

hi,
I've exported correctly the dmp.
exp system/manager@oradb full=y file=c:\x.dmp log=error.log

but when I try import this dmp, I get these errors:

imp system/manager@oradb fromuser=tom touser=sam file=c:\x.dmp log=error_imp.log

IMP-00019:row rejected due oracle error 1401
IMP-00003racle error 1401 encountered
ORA-1401:inserted value too large for column
Column1 0000232
Column2 cat
..................
.................

How is it possible that I get imp error if export is correct?

Could you help me??

Are you importing the table definitions as well? or does the table already exist?

If so it's possible the defintion of the table your trying to import into does not match the database you exported from.

I truncate table with error and disable all constraints on this table
after I exported this table:
exp tom/tom@oradb file=tb.dmp tables=ER

after I imported this table:
imp system/manager@oradb file=tb.dmp fromuser=tom touser=sam ignore=y

but I get same previous error:

IMP-00019:row rejected due oracle error 1401
IMP-00003racle error 1401 encountered
ORA-1401:inserted value too large for column
..........
..........

Is this the same database for exp and imp?

As per metalink Doc ID : 188645.1, This may be due to Character Set UTF8 of your database. For more info, Check that Document in metalink.

Thanks.

No, TomazZ
I exported from oradb and import in a new instance.

patel_dil has an answer for you.

Truncating the table will not change it's definition, and disabling constraints is also not necessary, the error relates to the fact that it is trying to insert data which is outsides the bounds of the coloumn.

eg.

If you have userA and userB both with a table CUSTOMER but userA has the NAME column defined as varchar2(20) and userB has the NAME column defined as varchar2(10). If the names contained in userA's table are greater than 10 characters in length if you try to import the table data into userB the import will fail with the error you are getting.

Either drop the tables in the user you importing into or update the table defintions to match the user you are exporting from.

ok,
I have resolved my problem ORA-1401 (I have increased the columns with error, after I've export and import again).

But now I get another error:

IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 2298:
"ALTER TABLE "ACTS" ENABLE CONSTRAINT "ACTS_SECURITY""
IMP-00003: ORACLE error 2298 encountered
ORA-02298: cannot validate (oradb.ACTS_SECURITY) - parent keys not found
IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 2298:
"ALTER TABLE "CLASS" ENABLE CONSTRAINT "CLASS_SECURITY""
IMP-00003: ORACLE error 2298 encountered
ORA-02298: cannot validate (oradb.CLASS_SECURITY) - parent keys not found

these constraints references table groups of user sam.

How can I resolve this problem?

You are going to have to either provide the parent tables with the necessary rows so that the constraints can be validated or use the tables with disabled/removed constraints.
