    Upgrading 9.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.3

    Hi All,
    I am facing some real problem in upgrading my 9204 database tp 10.2.0.3.
    The scenario is : I have my production db running on 9.2.0.6 and i have been asked to clone the db using RMAN to a new host and upgrade it to 10.2.0.3. I have tried but the new host has got 9.2.0.4 binaries. Management does not allow me to patch the binariy at this point.

    So alternatively what i have done is
    1) I have created one 10g database in the new host.
    2) Taken a full database export of source prod db(9206)
    3) Trying to import but here i am facing one problem.

    indexes=Y

    indexfile=/stage/bhakti/create_index.sql

    This is a critical issue for me now. Can anyone has ever faced this sort of issue help me in this? I will really appreciate the help. My advance regards and thanks.

    Regards,
    Bhakti

    take the filesize parameter out

    also dont import outln or dbsmmp

    might be wise to find a dba to help you out as well

    Also, you may have characterset conversion issues, set your NLS_LANG environment variable compatible for both export and import.
    import done in WE8ISO8859P1 character set and AL16UTF16 NCHAR character set
    import server uses AL32UTF8 character set (possible charset conversion)
    export client uses US7ASCII character set (possible charset conversion)
    export server uses UTF8 NCHAR character set (possible ncharset conversion)
