Unknown User Alcie: ORA-01435

Hello,

I am trying to import a DB into Oracle 9i, using hte Import Utility I ran into the following PBs:

[oracle@Linux2005 oracle]$ imp system/tiger FILE=/OraHome/080904.dmp FROMUSER=AL CIE FULL IGNORE=N

I guess that I have to precreate an ALCIE user and then attempt another import ?
Should I jsut create a new virgin DB ?

You have to create the user "ALCIE" for sure.

but your import command is not exactly right , either.

try this:

imp system/tiger FILE=/OraHome/080904.dmp FROMUSER=ALCIE TOUSER=ALCIE IGNORE=Y

seazodiac

there are three modes of import

one is FULL=Y

second is FROMUSER=ALCIE but you have to pair it up with TOUSER=ALCIE

third is TABLES=(tab1, tab2...tabn)

Hello again,

Following your recommendations, I got the following output after performing a new DB import;

Why are some tables, no rows imported ?
Does this meed my DB has been successfully imported from Oracle 8i to 9i ?
Is something still missing ? What should I look for ?

Yes, your import is successful as indicate by this message:
"Import terminated successfully without warnings" at the very end .

some tables just don't have any rows of data that's why no rows imported.

make sure you have the right SELECT permission on the LOT table.

in the worst, 'you can log in as sysdba

SELECT * from <SCHEMA_NAME>.LOT ;

ASKER

Hello,

What does that mean exactly ?
Lets say LOT belongs to the ALCIEIND tablespace, then I should query:

select * from alcieind.lot;

PT

What is a shema ?

seazodiac

oh, dude..

ok let's get some basics here...

try to get this:

SQL>select owner, table_name from all_tables where table_name ='LOT';

you can get the Owner of the table "lot"

then try to log in as SYSDBA

SQL>select * from <owner>.LOT;
