ORA-64738: guaranteed copy suspended for database string
Cause: One of the following operations was performed resulting in the database
using more than its allotted disk space:
- UPDATE_DB lowering the DISK_SPACE_RESERVE value.
- UPDATE_PROTECTION_POLICY setting the guaranteed_copy parameter to
YES
- DELETE_SBT_LIBRARY where backup data for the given database existed. New
backup requests may be stalled until the system can recompute the safety of
allowing additional backup data or backup data may be lost.
Action: This event can be avoided by ensuring backups are written to tape in a
timely manner. Conversely, one should avoid the activities listed in the Cause
statement when backups are not being written to tape in a timely manner.
ORA-64739: RECOVERY_WINDOW_GOAL is lost for database string
Cause: The recovery window goal in the protection policy indicates a desire to be
able to restore and recover to any point in time within that range. This is not
possible given the current set of backups. Possible reasons are missing archive log
backups, missing data file backups or lack of reserved disk space.
Action: Ensure that backups are done regularly. Ensure that your disk reserved
space value is set high enough to support your goals. Query RA_DATABASE view
for DISK_RESERVED_SPACE and RECOVERY_WINDOW_SPACE parameters
and compare these two parameters to ensure enough space has been provisioned
to meet your goals. However, you may use the DBMS_RA.UPDATE_
PROTECTION_POLICY procedure to increase the DISK_RESERVED_SPACE
value to ensure additional backups are saved. Also, check for KEEP backups
consuming space on the disk and decide if they should be moved to tape or other
disk storage.
ORA-64740: Backups from database string have not been seen for more than
UNPROTECTED_WINDOW period
ORA-60001 to ORA-65535 32-23

user mode export, a full export, nor a point in time recovery export.
Action: If you want to select a subset of rows for a table, you must export the table
independently with a table mode export. Issue a table mode export command that
specifies the table name and the query you want to execute during export.
EXP-00036: Object number non-existent in dictionary
Cause: The specified object could not be found in the dictionary. The object might
have been dropped during the export
Action: The object no longer exists; no action is needed.
EXP-00037: Export views not compatible with database version
Cause: The Export utility is at a higher version than the database version and is
thereby incompatible.
Action: Use the same version of Export utility as the database.
EXP-00038: Bad Hash cluster id in clu$
Cause: The function id in clu$ is not a legal number. Clu$ has become corrupted.
Action: Contact Worldwide Support
EXP-00039: export file string must be on a disk
Cause: On some platforms, export can read files from tape. This message is
displayed if the first file in an export file set was on disk and you specified a tape
device for a second or subsequent file.
EXP-00000 to EXP-00114 33-5
Action: Verify that you have specified the correct file name for the export file.
Remember that all export files can be either on disk or all files can be on tape, but
not mixed both tape and disk.
EXP-00040: Dump file and log file must be different
Cause: The dump file and log file cannot be the same file.
Action: Specify different file names for the dump file and the log file, then retry
the operation.
EXP-00041: INCTYPE parameter is obsolete
Cause: Export encountered the INCTYPE parameter when parsing Export
options. Incremental Exports are no longer supported.
Action: Consult the Oracle Backup and Recovery guide. Export will attempt to
continue.
EXP-00042: Missing NLS_CHARACTERSET/NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET in
props$
Cause: A value for NLS_CHARACTERSET/NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET
was not entered in the props$ table"
Action: internal error.
EXP-00043: Invalid data dictionary information in the row where column "string" is
"string" in table string
Cause: The export utility retrieved invalid data from the data dictionary.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Suport.
EXP-00044: must be connected 'AS SYSDBA' to do Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace import
Cause: The user must log in 'as SYSDBA' to perform transportable tablespace
imports or Point-In-Time Recovery imports.
Action: Ask your database adminstrator to perform the Transportable Tablespace
import or the Tablespace Point-in-time Recovery import.
EXP-00045: Cannot export SYSTEM Tablespace for Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace
Cause: SYSTEM tablespace cannot be part of recovery set or transportable
tablespace set.
Action: Contact Oracle Wordwide Support.
EXP-00046: Tablespace named string does not exist
Cause: The specified tablespace does not exist in dictionary.
Action: Contact Oracle Wordwide Support.
EXP-00047: Missing tablespace name(s)
Cause: Tablespace name(s) were not supplied
Action: Provide tablespace name(s)
EXP-00048: Cannot export SYSAUX Tablespace for Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace
Cause: SYSAUX tablespace cannot be part of recovery set or transportable
tablespace set.
Action: Contact Oracle Wordwide Support.
33-6 Oracle Database Error Messages
EXP-00049: string option is not compatible with Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace Export
Cause: An option was specified incompatible with Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace Export.
Action: Retry the Export without the displayed option.
EXP-00050: Cannot perform Partition Export "string" on non-partitioned table
"string"
Cause: The table specified in this Partition Export is not a partitioned table.
Action: Use Table mode, or specify a non-partitioned table.
EXP-00051: "string" - given partition or subpartition name is not part of "string"
table
Cause: The specified partition or subpartition name is not in the specified table.
Action: Check if the correct table, partition or subpartition name was specified.
EXP-00052: error on row number of partition string
Cause: Export encountered the referenced Oracle error while fetching rows.
Action: Look up the Oracle message in the ORA message chapters of this manual
and take appropriate action.
EXP-00053: unable to execute QUERY on table string because the table has inner
nested tables
Cause: You specified the QUERY parameter on a table that has one or more inner
nested tables. The QUERY parameter cannot be specified on tables that have inner
nested tables.
Action: Export the entire table by omitting the QUERY parameter.
EXP-00054: error on row number of subpartition string
Cause: Export encountered the referenced Oracle error while fetching rows.
Action: Look up the Oracle message in the ORA message chapters of this manual
and take appropriate action.
EXP-00055: string.string is marked not exportable
Cause: An object was marked as non-exportable in the NOEXP$ table.
Action: Consult your database administrator.
EXP-00057: Failure to initialize parameter manager
Cause: The parameter manager failed in intialization.
Action: Record the messages that follow and report this to Oracle Wordwide
Support as an Export internal bug.
EXP-00058: Password Verify Function for string profile does not exist
Cause: Cannot find the function for the profile.
Action: Check if the profile was created properly.
EXP-00059: error converting an object type's identifier to characters
Cause: An invalid length of an object type identifier prevented its conversion.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
EXP-00060: an object type had multiple TYPE BODYs
Cause: More than one TYPE BODY was found for an object type.
EXP-00000 to EXP-00114 33-7
Action: Try dropping the TYPE BODY, if that is not successful, contact Oracle
Worldwide Support
EXP-00061: unable to find the outer table name of a nested table
Cause: While exporting a bitmap index or posttable action on an inner nested
table, the name of the outer table could not be located, using the NTAB$ table.
Action: Verify the table is properly defined.
EXP-00062: invalid source statements for an object type
Cause: TYPE was not found in the statements in SOURCE$ for an Object Type
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
EXP-00063: error in changing language handle
Cause: Unable to change language handle.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
EXP-00064: string is an inner nested table and cannot be exported.
Cause: An attempt was made to export an inner nested table without its parent
table.
Action: Export the parent of the inner nested table.
EXP-00065: Error writing lob to the dump file.
Cause: The current LOB could not be written to the dump file.
Action: Identify the cause of the write failure and fix it.
EXP-00066: Object table string is missing its object identifier index
Cause: All object tables must have an object identifier index, but the specified
table was missing an index on its object identifier column.
Action: Recreate the type table and retry the operation.
EXP-00068: tablespace string is offline
Cause: Export failed to export tablespace (tablespace being offline).
Action: Make tablespace online and re export.
EXP-00070: attempt to free unallocated memory
Cause: An attempt was made to free memory that was not allocated.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
EXP-00071: QUERY parameter not compatible with Direct Path export
Cause: You specified a value for the QUERY parameter for a direct path export.
The QUERY parameter cannot be used with a direct path export.
Action: Re-issue the export command with DIRECT=N or omit the DIRECT
parameter from the command line.
EXP-00072: error closing export file string
Cause: An error occurred while trying to close the export file.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
EXP-00073: dump file size too small
Cause: You specified either the FILESIZE parameter or the VOLSIZE parameter (if
your platform supports it), and the value of the parameter is too small to hold the
header information for the export file, plus any data.
33-8 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Increase the value of the FILESIZE or VOLSIZE parameter.
EXP-00074: rounding VOLSIZE down, new value is string
Cause: The VOLSIZE parameter must be a multiple of the RECORDLENGTH, but
the value you specified for VOLSIZE does not meet this requirement. The value of
VOLSIZE has been rounded down to be a multiple of the RECORDLENGTH used
for the dump file.
Action: No action is required. You can adjust the VOLSIZE or RECORDLENGTH
parameter to avoid this message. When importing this file, you must specify the
VOLSIZE value reported by this message.
EXP-00075: rounding FILESIZE down, new value is string
Cause: The FILESIZE parameter must be a multiple of the RECORDLENGTH, but
the value you specified for FILESIZE does not meet this requirement. The value of
FILESIZE has been rounded down to be a multiple of the RECORDLENGTH used
for the dump file.
Action: No action is required. You can adjust the FILESIZE or RECORDLENGTH
parameter to avoid this message. When importing this file, you must specify the
FILESIZE value reported by this message.
EXP-00076: multiple devices specified for tape output
Cause: You specified multiple file names when doing an export to a tape device.
EXPORT uses the same device for writing all files, of the number of tape volumes
required. For this reason, export will accept only one value for the FILE parameter
when writing to tape.
Action: Reenter the EXPORT command, but specify only one tape device in the
FILE parameter.
EXP-00077: multiple output files specified for unbounded export file
Cause: You specified multiple file names when doing an export and you also
specified a value of 0 for the FILESIZE parameter. Note that 0 is the value used if
FILESIZE is not specified on the command line. Since a value of 0 for FILESIZE
means that only one file will be written and there is no size limit for that file, the
other files you specified in the FILE parameter can never be used.
Action: If you intended to write multiple files, respecify the command but use the
FILESIZE to specify the maximum number of bytes that EXPORT should write to
each file. If you intended to write only one file with no limits on it's size, reissue
the EXPORT command but specify only one file name for the FILE parameter.
EXP-00078: Error exporting metadata for index string. Index creation will be
skipped
Cause: Domain indexes export private metadata via anonymous PL/SQL blocks
prior to the CREATE INDEX statement. Export does this by calling the
ODCIIndexGetMetadata method on the implementation type associated with the
index. A problem occurred inside this routine. Because the metadata is considered
an integral part of the index, the CREATE INDEX statement was not written to the
dump file.
Action: Contact the developer of the index's implementation type. If this is an
Oracle-supplied index (perhaps via a data cartridge), contact Oracle Worldwide
Support.
EXP-00079: Data in table "string" is protected. Conventional path may only be
exporting partial table.
EXP-00000 to EXP-00114 33-9
Cause: User without the execute privilege on DBMS_RLS, the access control
package, tries to export a table that has access control. Since table owner is also
subjected to access control, the owner may not be able to export all rows in the
table, but only the ones he can see. Also, to preserve integrity of the table, user
exporting the table should have enough privilege to recreate the table with the
security policies at import time. Therefore, it is strongly recommended the
database administrator should be handling exporting of this table. Granting the
table owner execute privilege would also satisfy this security check, though it
might have other security implications. If the table does not have objects, can use
direct mode.
Action: Ask the database administrator to export/import this table/view.
EXP-00080: Data in table "string" is protected. Using conventional mode.
Cause: User without the execute privilege on DBMS_RLS, the access control
package, tries to direct export a table that has access control enabled. Using
conventional export mode instead. Note that because of access control, only a
partial table may be exported.
Action: Ask the database administrator to export/import this table/view.
EXP-00081: Exporting access control for table/view "string" as non-DBA.
Cause: A non-DBA user tries to export table/view and the associated fine grain
access control policies. The user may not have enough privilege to recreate the
access control policies when importing the table/view. And such an event may
cause inconsistency in the security model of the table/view.
Action: Ask the database administrator to export/import this table/view.
EXP-00082: Invalid function name passed to procedural object support: string
Cause: Internal inconsistency error: The listed function is not a method on
export's procedural object interface specification.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
EXP-00083: The previous problem occurred when calling string.string.string
Cause: The listed package provides export/import support for procedural
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support. Most packages are supplied by
Oracle internal cartridge or server development groups. The package name will
help Support determine the correct owner of the problem.
EXP-00084: Unexpected DbmsJava error number at step number
Cause: The error was returned from a call to a DbmsJava procedure.
Action: Record the accompanying messages and report this as an Export internal
error to customer support.
EXP-00085: The previous problem occurred when calling string.string.string for
object number
Cause: The listed package provides export/import support for procedural objects,
i.e, those whose DDL is supplied by stored procedures. The previously listed error
occurred while calling the specified function.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support. Most packages are supplied by
Oracle internal cartridge or server development groups. The package name will
help Support determine the correct owner of the problem.
EXP-00086: Primary key REFs in table "string"may not be valid on import
33-10 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: The specified table contains primary key REFs which may not be valid in
the import database.
Action: Do not use Export/Import to move Primary key REFs between databases
having differing character sets.
EXP-00087: Problem with internal hash table of schema/table names
Cause: Most likely a problem with allocating memory for the hash table entries.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
EXP-00089: invalid FILE_FORMAT specification
Cause: The FILE_FORMAT specification did not contain an instance of "%s". This
wildcard string must be present.
Action: Correct the error and reenter the EXPORT command.
EXP-00090: cannot pin type "string"."string"
Cause: Export was unable to pin the specified type in the object cache. This is
typically caused because a type could not be made valid (for example because of
authorization violations in accessing subtypes).
Action: Fix the problem with the offending type until the type can be successfully
compiled.
EXP-00091: Exporting questionable statistics.
Cause: Export was able export statistics, but the statistics may not be usuable. The
statistics are questionable because one or more of the following happened during
export: a row error occurred, client character set or NCHARSET does not match
with the server, a query clause was specified on export, only certain partitions or
subpartitions were exported, or a fatal error occurred while processing a table.
Action: To export non-questionable statistics, change the client character set or
NCHARSET to match the server, export with no query clause, export complete
tables. If desired, import parameters can be supplied so that only non-questionable
statistics will be imported, and all questionable statistics will be recalculated.
EXP-00092: Unable to set NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to required defaults.
Cause: Export was unable to set NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to '.,'
Action: Record the accompanying messages and report this as an Export internal
error to customer support.
EXP-00093: Could not convert to server character set's handle
Cause: Internal error.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
EXP-00094: Could not convert to server national character set's handle
Cause: Internal error.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
EXP-00095: Flashback_time and Flashback_scn are not compatible
Cause: Both flashback_time and flashback_scn paramerers were specified.
Action: Reissue command with only one flashback parameter.
EXP-00097: Object type "string"."string" is not in a valid state, type will not be
exported
EXP-00000 to EXP-00114 33-11
Cause: The object type's status is invalid which may be caused by a dependant
type's modification (or removal) without cascading the change.
Action: The type must be recompiled using ALTER TYPE COMPILE.
EXP-00098: Data in table has not been upgraded, table will not be exported
Cause: Export is attempting to process a table containing references to a type
which has evolved. In order for Export to process the table successfully, all data
within each table must be upgraded to the latest revision of each referenced type.
Action: The table must be updated using ALTER TABLE UPGRADE DATA.
EXP-00099: Table "string"."string" is not in a valid state, table will not be exported
Cause: A table or one of its dependant types has modified without cascading the
change. This left the table in an INVALID state.
Action: The table must be updated using ALTER TABLE UPDATE.
EXP-00100: error converting an object type's hashcode to characters
Cause: An invalid length of an object type identifier prevented its conversion.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
EXP-00101: Version 1 extensible index "string"."string" can not be included in
Transportable Tablespace Export
Cause: Transporable Tablespace extensible indexes must be at least version 2.
Action: Upgrade extensibile index implementation to version 2 specifications.
EXP-00102: Resumable parameters ignored -- current session not resumable
Cause: Current session is not resumable.
Action: Must specify RESUMABLE=Y to enable resumable session in order for the
RESUMABLE_NAME and RESUMABLE_TIMEOUT parameters to take effect.
EXP-00103: The FLASHBACK_TIME parameter was invalid
Cause: FLASHBACK_TIME did not contain a valid timestamp or an expression
that yields a valid timestamp.
Action: Specify a timestamp value in the format of YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS or
an expression that evaluates to a valid timestamp.
EXP-00104: datatype (string) of column string in table string.string is not supported,
table will not be exported
Cause: The column is of a datatype which does not contain the required support.
The table will not be exported.
Action: Use the Data Pump version of Export to export this table.
EXP-00105: parameter string is not supported for this user
Cause: The user attempted to specify either CONSISTENT or OBJECT_
CONSISTENT when connected as sysdba.
Action: If a consistent export is needed, then connect as another user.
EXP-00106: Invalid Database Link Passwords
Cause: Invalid Encoded Password for Database Link
Action: Please drop the Database Link and recreate it after import.
EXP-00107: Feature (string) of column string in table string.string is not supported.
The table will not be exported.
33-12 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: Export does not contain the required support for this feature. The table
will not be exported.
Action: Use the Data Pump version of Export to export this table.
EXP-00108: NULL lob fetched
Cause: Internal error
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
EXP-00109: XSL delimiter not found
Cause: Internal error
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
EXP-00110: Tablespace string is encrypted and will not be exported
Cause: Encrypted Tablespace feature is not supported by classic export
Action: Use DATAPUMP Utility to export this tablespace.
EXP-00111: Table string resides in an Encrypted Tablespace string and will not be
exported
Cause: Encrypted Tablespace feature is not supported by classic export
Action: Use DATAPUMP Utility to export this table.
EXP-00112: Index string is of XMLType and could not be exported
Cause: Export does not contain the required support for this feature. The index
could not be exported.
Action: Use Oracle Data Pump Utility to export this index.
EXP-00113: Feature string is unsupported. string string.string could not be exported
Cause: Export does not contain the required support for this feature.
Action: Use Oracle Data Pump Utility
EXP-00114: Length of string string is exceeding the maximum limit
Cause: Provided length was more than the maximum limit allowed.
Action: Check the input value and provide the correct value.

Only a database administrator can import into another user's account.
Action: Ask the database administrator to do the import.
IMP-00008: unrecognized statement in the export file: string
34-2 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: Import did not recognize a statement in the export file. Either the export
file was corrupted, or an Import internal error has occurred.
Action: If the export file was corrupted, retry with a new export file. Otherwise,
report this as an Import internal error and submit the export file to customer
support.
IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file
Cause: The export file is probably from an aborted Export session.
Action: If so, retry the export and import. Otherwise, report this as an Import bug
and submit the export file that caused this error to customer support.
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
Cause: Either the file was not generated by Export or it was corrupted.
Action: If the file was indeed generated by Export, report this an Import bug and
submit the export file to customer support.
IMP-00011: formatted table data not currently supported

not installed, or the row describing the option is missing from table V$OPTION
Action: Reinstall Oracle with the option specified by the message.
IMP-00015: following statement failed because the object already exists:
Cause: Import failed to create an object because it already exists.
Action: Specify IGNORE=Y to ignore such errors and import rows even when
tables are not created because they already exist.
IMP-00016: required character set conversion (type number to number) not
supported
Cause: Import could not convert the character format of the export file into the
native character format.
Action: Change the user character set by setting the NLS_LANG environment
variable to match the character set of the export file.
IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error number:

IMP-00020: long column too large for column buffer size (number)
Cause: The column buffer is too small. This usually occurs when importing
LONG data.
Action: Increase the insert buffer size 10,000 bytes at a time (for example). Use this
step-by-step approach because a buffer size that is too large may cause a similar
problem.
IMP-00021: INCTYPE parameter is obsolete
Cause: Import encountered the INCTYPE parameter when parsing Import
options. Incremental Imports are no longer supported.
Action: Consult the Oracle Backup and Recovery guide. Import will attempt to
continue.
IMP-00022: failed to process parameters, type 'IMP HELP=Y' for help

arguments if not a full import.
IMP-00032: SQL statement exceeded buffer length
Cause: The buffer was too small for the SQL statement being read.
Action: Rerun with a larger buffer. This can also be an indication of a corruption
in the import datafile.
IMP-00033: Warning: Table "string" not found in export file
Cause: A table name was specified that does not exist in export file.
Action: Correct the table specification.
IMP-00034: Warning: FromUser "string" not found in export file
Cause: The user specified a FROMUSER name that does not exist in export file.
Action: Correct the FROMUSER specification.
IMP-00035: input file string must be on a disk
Cause: On some platforms, import can read files from tape. This message is
displayed if the first file in an export file set was on disk and you specified a tape
device for a second or subsequent file.
Action: Verify that you have specified the correct file name for the import file.
Remember that all input files can be either on disk or all files can be on tape, but
not mixed both tape and disk.
IMP-00036: Could not find environment character set
Cause: An environment character set was specified that was not recognized by
the Import utility.
IMP-00000 to IMP-00402 34-5

not corrupted, report this as an Import internal error and submit the export file to
customer support.
IMP-00038: Could not convert to environment character set's handle
Cause: Internal error.
Action: Contact Worldwide Support.
IMP-00039: VOLSIZE does not match the value used for export: string
Cause: The value specified for VOLSIZE does not match the value specified
during the creation of the export file.
Action: If you believe that the specified VOLSIZE value is correct, verify that you
specified the correct file for import. If you specified the correct file but are unsure
about the correct value, re-execute the import command but specify VOLSIZE=0.
IMP-00040: FILESIZE does not match the value used for export: string
Cause: The value specified for FILESIZE does not match the value specified
during the creation of the export file.
Action: If you believe the specified FILESIZE value is correct, verify that you
specified the correct file for import. If you specified the correct file but are unsure
about the correct value, re-execute the import command but specify FILESIZE=0.
IMP-00041: Warning: object created with compilation warnings
Cause: The object in the SQL statement following this error was created with
compilation errors. If this error occurred for a view, it is possible that the base table
of the view was missing.
Action: This is a warning. The object may have to be recompiled before being
used.
IMP-00042: CHARSET used, but the export file has specific character set
Cause: The user requested that a specific character set be used to process an
export file that has a specific embedded character set ID. The ID in the export file
is accurate and should be used.
Action: Remove the CHARSET keyword from the command line.
IMP-00043: export file character set inconsistent
Cause: The character set of the export file and the environment character set (or
the character set specified with the CHARSET keyword) are inconsistent. One
character set is ASCII-based while the other is EBCDIC based.
Action: Specify the correct character set with the CHARSET keyword.
IMP-00044: unable to allocate enough memory for statement
Cause: Import was unable to allocate sufficient memory to read in the specified
statement and execute it.
Action: Increase the allocation for database buffers, restart the instance, and
reexecute the Import command.

IMP-00045: using VOLSIZE value from export file of string
Cause: Either you did not specify the VOLSIZE parameter in your IMPORT
command, or you specified VOLSIZE=0 and the export was created with a
non-zero value for VOLSIZE. Import will use the value specified in the export file.
Action: None required.
IMP-00046: using FILESIZE value from export file of string
Cause: Either you did not specify the FILESIZE parameter in your IMPORT
command, or you specified FILESIZE=0 and the export file was created with a
non-zero value for FILESIZE. Import will use the value specified in the export file.
Action: None required.
IMP-00047: unexpected file sequence number; expected number but found number
Cause: The header in the export file contains a sequence number that is used to
track the order in which multiple export files are written. The first export file is
assigned sequence number one, the second file is assigned sequence number two
and so on. This message is displayed when a number other than the expected
sequence number is found in the file header
Action: Execute the import command again, but specify the files in the order in
which Export wrote them.
IMP-00048: mismatched file header
Cause: During verification of the 2nd or subsequent file in a multi-file export,
Import found header fields in the file that did not match values in the first file.
Action: Check the names of the files created by Export and verify that you
specified them correctly for the import operation.
IMP-00049: Unknown language specified in CHARSET
Cause: An unknown language was listed in the CHARSET option.
Action: Use a known character set.
IMP-00050: Dump file and log file cannot be identical
Cause: Identical names were given to the dump file and log file.
Action: Specify different names for the dump file and log file and retry the
operation.
IMP-00051: Direct path exported dump file contains illegal column length
Cause: An invalid column length was encountered while processing column
pieces."
Action: Check to make sure the export file is not corrupted, or else report this to
Oracle Worldwide Support as an Import/Export internal bug and submit the
export file.
IMP-00052: Warning: Unable to set event for freelist communication with server
Cause: An event could not be set for current the session.
Action: If Import fails, give the Import user ALTER SESSION PRIV and retry the
operation.
IMP-00053: Import mode incompatible with Export dump file
Cause: The specified import option is incompatible with point-in-time- recovery
dump file.
Action: Generate a proper dump file or use point-in-time-recovery import mode.
IMP-00000 to IMP-00402 34-7
IMP-00054: must be connected 'AS SYSDBA' to do Point-in-time Recovery or
Transportable Tablespace import
Cause: The user must log in 'as SYSDBA' to perform transportable tablespace
imports or Point-In-Time Recovery imports.
Action: Ask your database adminstrator to perform the Transportable Tablespace
import or the Tablespace Point-in-time Recovery import.
IMP-00055: Warning: partition or subpartition "string":"string" not found in export
file
Cause: A partition or subpartition name was specified that does not exist in
export file.
Action: Check to make sure the partition or subpartition name belongs to the
table.
IMP-00056: multiple devices specified for tape input
Cause: You specified multiple file names when doing an import from a tape
device. Import uses the same device for reading all tapes, regardless of the number
of tape volumes required. For this reason, export will accept only one value for the
FILE parameter when writing to tape.
Action: Reenter the IMPORT command, but specify only one tape device in the
FILE parameter.
IMP-00057: Warning: Dump file may not contain data of all partitions of this table
Cause: The dump file used for this Table Import might not contain all of the data
belonging to the exported table.
Action: Check to see if the export was done as intended, or try performing a
Partition Import.
IMP-00059: Failure to initialize parameter manager
Cause: Parameter manager failed in initialization.
Action: Report this to Oracle Worldwide Support as an Import internal bug.
IMP-00060: Warning: Skipping table "string"."string" because object type
"string"."string" does not exist or has different identifier
Cause: An object type needed by the table, either does not exist on the
* target system or, if it does exist, it has a different object identifier.
Action: Create the object type on the target system with a valid
* identifier.
IMP-00061: Warning: Object type "string"."string" already exists with a different
identifier
Cause: An object type cannot be created because it already exists on the
* target system, but with a different identifier
Action: Drop the object type from the target system and retry the operation.
IMP-00062: Warning: The identifier on the dump file for object type
"string"."string" is invalid
Cause: The character string representing the object type's identifier
* could not be converted to an object identifier.
Action: Internal error.
34-8 Oracle Database Error Messages
IMP-00063: Warning: Skipping table "string"."string" because object type
"string"."string" cannot be created or has different identifier
Cause: An error occurred creating an object type that is used by the
* table.
Action: Examine the import log to determine why the object type could not
* be created. If the object type already existed, with a
* different object identifier, then drop the object type and
* retry the import.
IMP-00064: Definition of LOB was truncated by export
Cause: While producing the dump file, Export was unable to write the
*entire contents of a LOB. Import is therefore unable to
* reconstruct the contents of the LOB. The remainder of the
*import of the current table will be skipped.
Action: Delete the offending row in the exported database and retry the
*export.
IMP-00065: Import is unable to recreate lobs within objects.
Cause: An error occurred recreating a LOB within an imported object.
Action: Report this to Oracle Worldwide Support as an Import internal error.
IMP-00066: Missing NLS_CHARACTERSET in props$
Cause: No value for NLS_CHARACTERSET in props$.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
IMP-00067: Could not convert to server character set's handle
Cause: Internal error.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
IMP-00068: Could not find environment national character set
Cause: An environment national character set was specified that was not
recognized by the Import utility.
Action: Ensure that the spelling of the national character set specified in the
environment variable NLS_NCHAR is correct.
IMP-00069: Could not convert to environment national character set's handle
Cause: Internal error..
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
IMP-00070: Lob definitions in dump file are inconsistent with database.
Cause: The number of LOBS per row in the dump file is different than the
*number of LOBS per row in the table being populated.
Action: Modify the table being imported so that it matches the column
* attribute layout of the table that was exported.
IMP-00071: Object identifier of imported table mismatches object identifier of
existing table
IMP-00000 to IMP-00402 34-9
Cause: An attempt was made to import data into a table that was recreated under
a different object identifier than the object identifier used for the exported object
table. Under this situation, REF's to this table that are contained within the dump
file will also be invalid.
Action: Drop the offending object table prior to import.
IMP-00072: Warning: The object table's object identifier is invalid.
Cause: The character string representing the table's object identifier could not be
converted to an internal object identifier.
Action: Internal error.
IMP-00073: FILE locator "string" "string" is truncated to "string" "string" in server
character set
Cause: The conversion of the specified directory and name strings for a file
attribute or column from the export server's character set into the import server's
character set exceeded the maximum string lengths allowed within FILE
descriptors. The strings will be truncated to the maximum supported lengths.
Action: Rename the directory aliases and external filenames to match the
truncated names in the specified FILE column or attribute.
IMP-00074: The constraints flagged by ALL_CONSTRAINTS.BAD will break in
2000 A.D.
Cause: Constraints exist in the data base that specify date values without fully
specifying the year. These constraints could break in the year 2000 A.D.
Action: Query ALL_CONSTRAINTS and correct those constraints marked as bad.
IMP-00075: Warning: The nested table may contain partial rows or duplicate rows
Cause: An error occurred inserting data into an outer or inner nested table. If the
error occurred in the outer table, rows are still inserted into the inner tables. If the
error occurred in an inner table, data is still inserted into the outer table and other
inner tables. This can result in duplicate inner table rows or partial logical rows.
Action: Examine the data in the tables. Delete the incorrect rows or drop the entire
table and perform the import again.
IMP-00076: Missing NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET in props$
Cause: No value for NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET in props$.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
IMP-00077: Could not convert to server national character set's handle
Cause: Internal error.
Action: Contact Worldwide support.
IMP-00078: Cannot translate FILE locator to "string" "string" in server character set
Cause: (1) The current export dump file was generated using Beta-2 of Oracle8.0
AND (2) there was a File that appeared as an an attribute of an ADT within a
table's column AND (3) the character set of the export server's database was
different than the character set of the import server's database AND (4) when the
filename or the aliasname of the File increased in size when it was translated to the
character set of the import server. When all of these conditions are true, translation
of the strings could yield corruption of the data in the column. Rather than
proceeding with the translation, import will leave the character strings in the File
in the old character set.
34-10 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: After import completes, rename the directory aliases and external
filenames to match the real names used for the target database.
IMP-00079: Warning: National character set data in this table may be incorrect
Cause: Due to a problem in 8.0.2 Export, national character data in NCHAR and
NVARCHAR2 columns was incorrectly assumed to be in the export server's data
base character set and was converted to the export client's data base character set.
This conversion would only be correct if the export server's data base character set
was the same as the export server's national character set and the export client's
data base character set was the same as the export client's national character set.
All other combinations would likely be incorrect. This export dump file was
generated by 8.0.2 Export and the export client and server characater sets did not
fit that criteria.
Action: Examine the national character data. If incorrect, update the data with
correct data.
IMP-00080: Error during character conversion of long column or long command
Cause: During piecewise character conversion of the data in a long column or of a
long command, a fatal conversion error occurred. Either character truncation
occurred or an invalid character set handle was used.
Action: Retry the import with a different character set.
IMP-00081: attempt to free unallocated memory
Cause: An attempt was made to free memory that was not allocated.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
IMP-00082: Error during conversion ROWID from string format to internal
Cause: An error occured while attempting to to convert a ROWID from an export
dump file into an internal format.
Action: Report this to Oracle Worldwide Support as an Import internal error.
IMP-00083: dump file does not contain an incremental export
Cause: An incremental import was requested and the dump file specified for the
import command is either a user or table export.
Action: Reissue the command import command but specify the name of a dump
file containing an incremental export.
IMP-00084: attempt to mix incremental import with user or table import
Cause: An incremental import was requested along with the FROMUSER,
TOUSER, or TABLE qualifier. An incremental import cannot be done if any of
these other qualifiers are also specified.
Action: Determine whether you want to do an incremental import, full import,
user import or table import and reissue the import command with the appropriate
qualifiers.
IMP-00085: multiple input files specified for unbounded export file
Cause: You specified multiple file names for the FILE parameter when doing an
import, but the header in the export file indicates that that the export operation
could create only one file. Specifying multiple file names is valid for an import
operation only if the export files were created by an export operation in which the
user specified a non-zero value for the FILESIZE parameter.
IMP-00000 to IMP-00402 34-11
Action: If you believe the export contains multiple files, verify that you have
specified the correct files. If you believe the export should be in only one file then
try the import operation again, but specify only one value for the FILE parameter.
IMP-00086: TOID "string" not found in export file
Cause: Import did not find the type identification specified in the TOID_
NOVALIDATE parameter. The specified type identification does not exist in
export file.
Action: Correct or omit the TOID_NOVALIDATE parameter.
IMP-00087: Problem with internal hash table of schema/table names
Cause: Most likely a problem with allocating memory for the hash table entries.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support
IMP-00088: Problem importing metadata for index string. Index creation will be
skipped
Cause: Domain indexes import private metadata via anonymous PL/SQL blocks
prior to the CREATE INDEX statement. The execution of one of these PL/SQL
blocks failed. Because the metadata is considered an integral part of the index, the
subsequent CREATE INDEX statement was skipped.
Action: Contact the developer of the index's implementation type. If this is an
Oracle-supplied index (perhaps via a data cartridge), contact Oracle Worldwide
Support.
IMP-00089: Fine grain policy "string" not recreated on table/view "string"
Cause: Import user fails to recreate fine grained policies of the table/view being
imported. To recreate the policy, the user doing the import needs execute privilege
on the package DBMS_RLS for access policies or DBMS_FGA for audit policies.
Action: Ask the database administrator to perform the export/import of this
table/view.
IMP-00090: Unexpected DbmsJava error number at step number while creating string
Cause: The error was returned from a call to a DbmsJava procedure.
Action: Record the accompanying messages and report this as an Import internal
error to customer support.
IMP-00091: Above error occurred on the following function and object: string.
Remaining PL/SQL blocks for this object will be skipped.
Cause: An error occurred while executing a PL/SQL block that implements the
DDL for the named function and procedural object. A procedural object is one
whose DDL is implemented as stored procedures rather than as standard SQL
statements.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support so they may determine the
development group responsible for the package that failed.
IMP-00092: Java object "string"."string" already exists, cannot be created
Cause: Import failed to create the Java source, class or resource object because it
already exists.
Action: Drop the object type from the target system and retry the operation.
IMP-00093: Inconsistency between dumpfile constraint definition for table string
with columns (string)
34-12 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: Import failed to locate a base table for a constraint that was defined in the
dump file and statistics were not imported.
Action: Check to see if the table and constraint exist. If the table and constraint
exist, then report this to Oracle Support Services as an Import internal error.
IMP-00094: Warning: The identifier on the dump file for object type
"string"."string" is invalid
Cause: The character string representing the object type's identifier
* could not be converted.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
IMP-00095: Resumable parameters ignored -- current session not resumable
Cause: Current session is not resumable.
Action: Must specify RESUMABLE=Y to enable resumable session in order for the
RESUMABLE_NAME and RESUMABLE_TIMEOUT parameters to take effect.
IMP-00096: Warning: Skipping table "string"."string" because type synonym
"string"."string" cannot be created
Cause: An error occurred creating a synonym for a type that is used by the
* table.
Action: Examine the import log to determine why the type synonym could
* not be created. If the synonym already existed, but is not
* needed, then drop the synonym and retry the import. If the
* synonym is PUBLIC but the importer does not have the
* CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM system privilege, then the import must
* be done by someone possessing that privilege, or the importer
* must be granted the privilege.
IMP-00097: STREAMS_CONFIGURATION=Y ignored, only valid with FULL=Y
Cause: STREAMS_CONFIGURATION=Y can only be used
* when FULL=Y is present on the command line
Action: Remove conflicting command arguments
IMP-00098: INTERNAL ERROR: string
Cause: An INTERNAL error occurred.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
IMP-00099: Warning: The typeid in the dump file for object type "string"."string" is
invalid
Cause: The character string representing the object type's identifier
* could not be converted.
Action: Contact Oracle Worldwide Support.
IMP-00400: Warning: Object type "string"."string" already exists with a different
typeid
Cause: An object type could not be created because it already existed on the
* target system, but with a different typeid
IMP-00000 to IMP-00402 34-13
Action: Drop the object type from the target system and retry the operation.
IMP-00401: dump file "string" may be an Data Pump export dump file
Cause: A dump file was specified for an import operation which appears to have
been created using the Data Pump export utility. These dump files cannot be
processed by the original import utility.
Action: Try using the Data Pump import utility to process this dump file.
IMP-00402: Invalid parameter "string" with data_only mode
Cause: Parameter provided along data_only is invalid.
Action: Remove the invalid parameter from command line.

35-10 Oracle Database Error Messages
SQL*Loader-00211: Field name stringstringstring in the FIELD NAMES record in
the data file is too long.
Cause: The field name exceeded the maximum of 30 characters.
Action: Specify at most 30 characters.
SQL*Loader-00212: The field level ENCLOSED BY clause is not allowed with the
CSV WITH EMBEDDED clause.
Cause: A field level ENCLOSED BY clause was specified with the CSV WITH
EMBEDDED clause. All fields must use the same ENCLOSED BY or
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY clause for CSV files with embedded record
terminators.
Action: Either remove the field level ENCLOSED BY clause, or, if the data file
does not contain embedded record terminators, change CSV WITH EMBEDDED
to CSV WITHOUT EMBEDDED.
SQL*Loader-00213: Invalid value for the table parameter
Cause: The table name specified on the command line was not recognized. It
could be misspelled, or another argument (not identified by a keyword) could be
in its place. The schema name or the table name may have been too long for a
valid database identifier in the database character set.
Action: Check the spelling and position of the arguments on the command line.
SQL*Loader-00214: Invalid value for the table name in the INTO TABLE clause
Cause: The table name specified in the INTO TABLE clause was not recognized.
The schema name or the table name may have been too long for a valid database
identifier in the database character set.
Action: Check the name and try again with a valid table name.
SQL*Loader-00215: Invalid data file name in INFILE statement
Cause: The datafile name specified in INFILE statement was not recognized. It
could be misspelled, or the length may exceed the maximum file specification
allowed on the platform.
Action: Check the spelling and length of the data file specification.
SQL*Loader-00216: Invalid bad file name in BADFILE statement
Cause: The bad file name specified in the BADFILE statement was not recognized.
It could be misspelled, or the length may exceed the maximum file specification
allowed on the platform.
Action: Check the spelling and length of the bad file specification.
SQL*Loader-00217: Invalid discard file name in DISCARDFILE statement
Cause: The discard file name specified in the DISCARDFILE statement was not
recognized. It could be misspelled, or the length may exceed the maximum file
specification allowed on the platform.
Action: Check the spelling and length of the discard file specification.
SQL*Loader-00218: Specified command-line parameter string ignored since not an
express mode load.
Cause: A command-line parameter was specified that is supported only for
express mode and not for loads which use a control file.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-11
Action: Omit the option which is not supported if the option is not needed or use
the control file syntax for the option. For example, use the CSV WITH
EMBEDDED or CSV WITHOUT EMBEDDED control file syntax.
SQL*Loader-00248: multiple string format masks specified at table level for table
string
Cause: Multiple format masks were specified for the listed datetime data type at
the table level for the listed table.
Action: Remove one of the mask specifications and try the operation again.
SQL*Loader-00249: Unexpected error occurred while processing datetime format
mask (string).
Cause: An unexpected error occurred while processing the datetime format mask.
Action: Check the mask and try the operation again with a correct mask. If the
problem still occurs, contact Oracle Support Services.
SQL*Loader-00250: Work data sets are not used by SQL*Loader
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a WRKDDN statement. SQL*Loader
ignores this clause.
Action: No action required. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00251: Sort devices are not used by SQL*Loader
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a SORTDEVT statement.
SQL*Loader ignores this clause.
Action: No action required. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00252: Sort data sets are not used by SQL*Loader
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a SORTNUM statement. SQL*Loader
ignores this clause.
Action: No action required. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00253: DB2 partition number has no significance -- ignored
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a PART statement. SQL*Loader
ignores this clause.
Action: No action required. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00254: Cannot have DISCARDFILE specs here when multiple data
files
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contained multiple INFILE statements and a
DISCARDFILE statement was found below the RESUME clause.
Action: Move the DISCARDFILE statement above the RESUME clause, so it is
adjacent to one of the INFILE statements.
SQL*Loader-00255: Log file for error recovery not used by SQL*Loader
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a LOG statement. SQL*Loader
ignores this clause.
Action: No action required. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00256: SORTED INDEXES option allowed only for direct path
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a SORTED INDEXES statement, but
it was not used in a direct path load.
35-12 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Specify a direct path load with DIRECT=TRUE on the command line,
remove the statement from the SQL*Loader control file, or
SQL*Loader-00257: TERMINATED BY EOF option not valid with ENCLOSED BY
option
Cause: A field description in the SQL*Loader control file contains both the
TERMINATED BY EOF and the ENCLOSED BY options. These options are
mutually exclusive.
Action: Remove either or both of the clauses.
SQL*Loader-00258: Maximum number of SORTED INDEXES (number) exceeded on
table string
Cause: There are too many indexes in the SORTED INDEX clause. The message
displays the maximum number that are permitted.
Action: Reduce the number of indexes specified in the SORTED INDEX clause or
use the conventional path load instead of the direct path load.
SQL*Loader-00259: Could not escalate DDL share lock to exclusive on table string
Cause: This error occurs when another user has a parse lock on the table, for
example, when another user is doing a select on the table. The parse lock should
clear momentarily.
Action: Give the parse lock a chance to clear and then retry or else use the
conventional path load.
SQL*Loader-00260: TERMINATED BY EOF option available only with LOBFILE
option
Cause: The TERMINATED BY EOF option can be used only when describing data
to be loaded from a LOBFILE. It cannot be specified at the table level and it cannot
be for data in "regular" data files.
Action: Verify that you have specified the correct option for TERMINATED BY
and verify that the TERMINATED BY option is specified for the correct fields.
SQL*Loader-00261: illegal use of TERMINATED BY for RAW field
Cause: The TERMINATED BY option cannot be used for loading data of type
RAW from the data file. The only exception is when loading RAW data from
LOBFILES. In that case, you may specify the TERMINATED BY EOF option.
Action: Remove the TERMINATED BY option from the RAW field in the
SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00262: PIECED keyword (on column string) allowed only when path is
direct
Cause: The PIECED keyword cannot be used in a conventional path load.
Action: Remove the PIECED keyword or use the direct path load.
SQL*Loader-00263: PIECED column string must be last specified column in table
string
Cause: A column that is not the last column was specified as PIECED.
Action: Remove the PIECED keyword or place the column last.
SQL*Loader-00264: File mode token string parsed but ignored
Cause: An obsolete file mode token was used in the SQL*Loader control file. As of
Release 1.1 of SQL*Loader, the file-processing options string is used to control file
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-13
processing, rather than keywords like STREAM, RECORD, FIXED, and
VARIABLE.
Action: No action required. This message is informational. Removing the obsolete
keywords will eliminate the message without changing the way in which the
datafile is processed.
SQL*Loader-00265: Unable to get default character set name.
Cause: SQL*Loader was unable to locate the default character set name for the
environment.
Action: Supply a character set name with the CHARACTERSET keyword.
SQL*Loader-00266: Unable to locate character set handle for string.
Cause: SQL*Loader could not find the character set handle for the named
character set.
Action: Correct the character set name.
SQL*Loader-00267: Control file must be first data file.
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file is specified as containing data using the
INFILE "*" clause, but other datafiles were named first.
Action: Move the INFILE "*" clause so that it is the first datafile declared in the
SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00268: UNRECOVERABLE keyword may be used only in direct path.
Cause: The UNRECOVERABLE keyword can only be specified in the direct path
load.
Action: Use the direct path load or remove the keyword. (Conventional path
loads are always recoverable).
SQL*Loader-00269: Null string not allowed as clause comparison text.
Cause: A clause is being compared to a null string.
Action: Modify the clause to compare to at least one character.
SQL*Loader-00270: TERMINATED BY EOF valid only for CHAR or RAW datatypes
Cause: A field description in the SQL*Loader control file used the TERMINATED
BY EOF option when the field was not a RAW or CHAR datatype.
Action: Modify the SQL*Loader control file to either remove the TERMINATED
BY EOF clause or change the datatype for the field to be CHAR or RAW.
SQL*Loader-00271: Not a Parallel load. Table level OPTIONS statement ignored.
Cause: A table-level OPTIONS statement was specified for a non-parallel load.
Action: Remove the OPTIONS statement from the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00272: Table level OPTIONS statement ignored.
Cause: In the parallel load option, the file specified on the command line
overrides the file specified in the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: Remove the OPTIONS statement from the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00273: READBUFFERS may be used only in direct path.
Cause: The READBUFFERS specification was not entered as part of a direct path.
Action: Use the direct path or remove the READBUFFERS specification from the
SQL*Loader control file.
35-14 Oracle Database Error Messages
SQL*Loader-00274: At least 2 read buffers have to be specified.
Cause: Fewer than 2 read buffers have been specified.
Action: Specify at least 2 read buffers in the READBUFFERS statement, in the
SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00275: Data is in control file but "INFILE *" has not been specified.
Cause: The INFILE specification was not entered in the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: If data in the SQL*Loader control file is to be read, specify INFILE * in the
SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00276: Local storage option overrides global storage.
Cause: A storage clause has been specified in the table level options statement
and also in the global options statement.
Action: This is only a warning message. Table level options take precedence over
global options. Drop the table level options statement if this is not the intent.
SQL*Loader-00277: Local file specification overrides global file specification.
Cause: A filename has been specified in the table level options statement and also
in the global options statement.
Action: This is only a warning message. Table level options take precedence over
global options. Drop the table level options statement if this is not the intent.
SQL*Loader-00278: Incorrect file specification for parallel load.
Cause: The filename used to perform the parallel load was entered incorrectly.
Action: Correct the filename and re-invoke parallel loader.
SQL*Loader-00279: Only APPEND mode allowed when parallel load specified.
Cause: INSERT, REPLACE, or TRUNCATE mode was used in a parallel load
specification.
Action: Change the SQL*Loader control file to use the APPEND keyword and
re-invoke the parallel loader.
SQL*Loader-00280: table string is a temporary table
Cause: The sqlldr utility does not load temporary tables. Note that if sqlldr did
allow loading of temporary tables, the data would disappear after the load
completed.
Action: Load the data into a non-temporary table.
SQL*Loader-00281: Warning: ROWS parameter ignored in parallel mode.
Cause: Specifying save points using the ROWS parameter is not supported for
parallel loads.
Action: Remove the ROWS parameter from the command-line arguments or
specify a non-parallel direct load to have save points performed.
SQL*Loader-00282: Unable to locate character set handle for character set ID
(number).
Cause: SQL*Loader could not find the character set handle for the given character
set ID.
Action: The character set ID was obtained from the database server, the
SQL*Loader client does not have knowledge of the given character set ID. Possible
mis-match of NLS data on the client and server side.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-15
SQL*Loader-00283: file processing string "string" ignored for INFILE *
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file specified INFILE * for a load data file along
with an optional file processing string. This message is a warning that the file
processing string will be ignored since SQLLDR will expect the data to have the
same record format as the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: If the data in the SQL*Loader control file is in the same format as the rest
of the SQL*Loader control file, then you don't need to do anything. Removing the
file processing string will get rid of this error message. If the data in the
SQL*Loader control file has a different record format, then you need to copy the
data into a separate file and use that file's name in the INFILE clause.
SQL*Loader-00284: Warning: Input data file string specified multiple times.
Cause: The same input datafile is loaded multiple times. This can occur if the
INFILE keyword is placed out of order in the load syntax statement, which causes
the filename of the first datafile loaded to default to the name of the control file
with an extension or file type of DAT.
Action: Check that INFILE keyword is not placed after one of these -
BADFILE/BADDN/DISCARDFILE/DISCARDDN/DISCARDS.
SQL*Loader-00285: string may be used only in conventional path.
Cause: HIDDEN can only be specified in the conventional path load.
Action: Use the conventional path load.
SQL*Loader-00286: ROWS parameter is not supported when loading an IOT.
Cause: Specifying save points using the ROWS parameter is not supported when
loading an IOT.
Action: Remove the ROWS parameter from the command-line arguments.
SQL*Loader-00287: No control file name specified.
Cause: No control file name was provided at the control prompt.
Action: Provide the name of a valid control file at the prompt or on the command
line.
SQL*Loader-00288: Delimiters may not be specified for collections stored in SDF.
Cause: A TERMINATED BY or ENCLOSED BY clause was found along with an
SDF (secondary data files) clause for a nested table or varray field.
Action: The TERMINATED BY or ENCLOSED BY clauses may be specified only if
the nested table or VARRAY data is stored in the record in the main data file. If
you are loading nested table or VARRAY data from a secondary data file, then you
must use COUNT to indicate the number of elements in the secondary data file
that are stored in the file.
SQL*Loader-00289: SQL string for column string occludes SQL string for column
string.
Cause: A SQL string has been associated with both a column object and one of its
attributes in the control file. Because the SQL string of the column object will
replace the entire column object in the VALUE clause of the INSERT statement, the
SQL string of the attribute is ignored. This could cause unexpected or incorrect
values to be loaded.
Action: Correct the control file so that only the column object or its attribute has a
SQL string, but not both.
35-16 Oracle Database Error Messages
SQL*Loader-00290: PIECED keyword (on column string) allowed only for lob or
long columns
Cause: The PIECED keyword cannot be used for non lob or long columns.
Action: Remove the PIECED keyword or use lob or long column type.
SQL*Loader-00291: Invalid bind variable string in SQL string for column string.
Cause: A bind variable may not refer to a filler field or to a non-existent field.
Also, when running in direct-path mode, a bind variable may not refer to field that
represents a LOB stored in a secondary file or a collection.
Action: Remove the offending bind variable from the SQL string.
SQL*Loader-00292: ROWS parameter ignored when an XML, LOB or VARRAY
column is loaded
Cause: Command-line arguments contained a ROWS parameter. Specifying save
points using the ROWS parameter is not supported when any table being loaded
contains a LOB or a column stored as a LOB. XML and VARRAY columns may be
stored as a LOB.
Action: Remove the ROWS parameter from the command-line arguments.
SQL*Loader-00293: Missing XMLTYPE directive in control file for table string
Cause: A table of sys.xmltype must specify the XMLTYPE directive.
Action: Add XMLTYPE directive to control file.
SQL*Loader-00294: invalid name % specified in TREAT AS clause
Cause: The type name specified in a TREAT AS clause is invalid. It might contain
characters that are not valid in the client character set or a quoted string might not
be terminated or the name might be too long to contain a valid schema name and
type name.
Action: Verify that the type name has valid characters and is not too long. Also,
ensure that all quoted strings are terminated.
SQL*Loader-00295: Warning: Table string, Column string - Quoting rule of object
attribute bind variables has changed.
Cause: The quoting rule of bind variables consisting of full object attribute names
changed. The old quoting rule is incorrect because it can lead to ambiguous
column references. For backward compatibility, current load will continue unless
ambiguous column references are detected.
Action: This is only a warning message. Because the quoting rule of object
attribute bind variables has changed, it is recommended that the control file be
replaced with the new rule. With the new rule, a full object attribute bind variable
name is not enclosed in its entirety in double quotes. Instead, each attribute name
in the bind variable should be independently quoted as needed. Note that each
attribute name is actually an identifier on its own and thus should follow the
quoting rules for an identifier. For example, bind variable ':A.B.C' here consists of
3 attribute names (or identifiers): 'A', 'B', and 'C'.
SQL*Loader-00296: Bind variable string for column string is ambiguous.
Cause: A bind variable can only refer to one column in the control file. Current
load could not continue due to ambiguous column references.
Action: Fix the bind variable. If this bind variable consists of quotes, check that
the quotes are used correctly. For example, the old quoting rule of bind variables
consisting of full object attribute names was incorrect because it can lead to
ambiguous column references. Let's say we have an expression "LTRIM(:"A.B.C")".
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-17
Using the old quoting rule, this bind variable can refer to object attribute columns
'"A"."B"."C"', '"A.B".C', and '"A"."B.C"'. To avoid this confusion, use the new
quoting rule for object attribute bind variables, which is to quote each attribute
name independently as needed. In the preceding example, if the intended object
attribute column is 'A.B.C', then the expression rewritten as "LTRIM(:A.B.C)" or
"LTRIM(:"A"."B"."C") will not lead to ambiguities.
SQL*Loader-00297: Invalid syntax or bind variable in SQL string for column string.
Cause: See following error message for more information. A SQL string cannot
have quoted strings improperly terminated. A bind variable in a SQL string
cannot have a length of 0, cannot exceed maximum length of 30 characters, and
cannot be missing a double quote.
Action: Fix the SQL string. See following error for more information.
SQL*Loader-00298: Filler field name is too long
Cause: The specified filler field name exceeded the maximum of 30 characters.
Action: Specify at most 30 characters.
SQL*Loader-00299: Virtual column string in table string.string cannot be loaded.
Cause: Virtual columns were specified in the control file.
Action: Virtual columns cannot be specified in the control file. Remove the virtual
column from the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00300: error while attempting to enable tracing
Cause: An error occurred while executing an ALTER SESSION statement to
enable tracing. This message will be followed by the error returned from ALTER
SESSION.
Action: No action required.
SQL*Loader-00301: string for TERMINATED BY or ENCLOSED BY clause is longer
than number bytes
Cause: The size of a string literal is longer than the maximum number of bytes
allowed for an ENCLOSED BY or TERMINATED BY string. This error can also
occur if the string needs to be converted to the character set of the data file and the
resulting string is too long.
Action: Use shorter strings for the TERMINATED BY and ENCLOSED BY
clauses.
SQL*Loader-00303: Non-hex character encountered where hex char expected
Cause: A non-hex character was found in a hexadecimal string.
Action: Change it to the intended hexadecimal character.
SQL*Loader-00304: Illegal combination of non-alphanumeric characters
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a combination of non-alphanumeric
characters that SQL*Loader does not recognize. For example, the combination != is
recognized as "not equal", but the combination =! is not valid.
Action: Remove the unrecognized characters from the control file.
SQL*Loader-00305: More than one end of file character encountered
Cause: The file contains multiple end-of-file marks.
Action: Remove the excess end-of-file characters.
SQL*Loader-00306: Token longer than max allowable length of number chars
35-18 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file contains a single word or combination of
characters (a token) that is longer than the maximum permissible value. The
maximum possible value is shown. This error could result from missing spaces, so
that multiple tokens are joined.
Action: Check that the proper SQL*Loader control file is being executed Separate
tokens, if joined, or shorten the token.
SQL*Loader-00307: Warning: conflicting lengths number and number specified for
column string table string
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file specifies two different lengths for the named
column. There are three ways to specify the length of a field: --with the POSITION
keyword: POSITION(1:3) -- with the length specifier: CHAR(6) -- with the implied
length of a datatype; for example, INTEGER -- A conflict could occur between any
two of these specifications (or among all three, but only two are shown). A
common cause of this error is the specification of some numeric datatype, such as
INTEGER, when the numeric external form is intended (INTEGER EXTERNAL).
The external form consists of character data, so it is considerably longer than the
numeric form, which consists of binary data.
Action: No action is necessarily required, because SQL*Loader uses only one of
the lengths. Check the log file under the heading "Len" in the table-description
section to see which length was used. Adjusting the SQL*Loader control file to
produce uniform length specifications will remove the warning.
SQL*Loader-00308: string SQL string of column string must be in double quotes.
Cause: A SQL string was found that was not quoted or in single quotes.
Action: Use double quotes for the SQL string, rather than single quotes.
SQL*Loader-00309: No SQL string allowed as part of string field specification
Cause: Particular field types do not allow SQL strings as part of their field
specification (e.g. field corresponding to a LOB column). This was violated and
needs to be corrected.
Action: Remove the SQL string from the particular field specification.
SQL*Loader-00310: Interval partition values of table string must be in double
quotes.
Cause: A string specified for interval partitioning was found that was not quoted
or in single quotes.
Action: Use double quotes for the interval partitioning values string, rather than
single quotes.
SQL*Loader-00350: Syntax error at line number.
Cause: num identifies the line in the SQL*Loader control file at which the error
occurred. This message is followed by another of the form -- Expecting str1, found
str2 where str1 is a description of what SQL*Loader expected in the SQL*Loader
control file, and str2 is what was found. Then SQL*Loader displays the offending
line from the SQL*Loader control file, indicating the location of the error in the
line by a carat (^) or an asterisk (*). An example follows: -- SQL*Loa er-350: Syntax
error at line 28 -- Expecting column name, found keyword CHAR -- col3
ENCLOSED BY '"', CHAR ENCLOSED "'",
Action: Compare the DDL syntax against the syntax diagrams in Oracle7 Server
Utilities and make any necessary corrections.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-19
SQL*Loader-00401: End field position number must be greater than or equal to start
number
Cause: The named field contains a (start:end) clause in which end is less than
start.
Action: Modify the clause so that end is greater than or equal to start.
SQL*Loader-00402: Unable to determine length of column string from specification
Cause: The specified datatype does not have an implied length (for example, a
numeric external or RAW datatype), it is not specified with delimiters, no length
was specified, and a length cannot be determined from a POSITION clause.
Action: If a POSITION clause is specified, adding an end location to it produces a
length specification. This clause then has the form POSITION(start:end) A length
can also specified after the datatype, as in INTEGER EXTERNAL (6) Finally, the
field could be specified with delimiters, or the datatype changed to one that has an
implied length.
SQL*Loader-00403: Referenced column string not present in table string.
Cause: The named column is not present in the given table.
Action: Correct the column name or table name.
SQL*Loader-00404: Column string present more than once in string's INTO TABLE
block.
Cause: The named column is specified more than once in a single INTO TABLE
statement.
Action: Remove the extraneous column specification.
SQL*Loader-00405: Need termination delim with optional enclosure delim: column
string table string
Cause: The named column was specified with an optional enclosure delimiter, but
no termination delimiter. Enclosure delimiters can only be optional when
termination delimiters are present.
Action: Specify a termination delimiter or make the enclosure delimiters
non-optional.
SQL*Loader-00406: If data is all generated, number to load cannot be ALL
Cause: When only generated data is loaded, a number to load must be given so
SQL*Loader knows when to stop.
Action: Specify a number to load.
SQL*Loader-00407: If data is all generated, number to skip is meaningless
Cause: When all data is generated, no file is read, and there are no records to skip.
Action: Remove the number to skip.
SQL*Loader-00408: Physical record stack overflow
Cause: An internal error has occurred.
Action: Contact customer support.
SQL*Loader-00409: Number to skip must be table-level, not load-level on
continued loads
Cause: The SKIP parameter was specified on the command line or in the
OPTIONS statement, but the load was specified as continued with CONTINUE_
LOAD. When a multiple-table direct load is interrupted, it is possible that a
35-20 Oracle Database Error Messages
different number of records were loaded into each table. As a result, the number of
records to skip must be specified for each table when continuing the load. In this
case, the load is specified as continued with the CONTINUE_LOAD statement,
and the number of records to skip is given in each INTO TABLE statement. See
also messages 410 and 411 for more information.
Action: Check the log file to determine the appropriate number of records to skip
for each table and specify this number in the INTO TABLE statement for each table
in a continued load or with the command-line SKIP parameter in a standard load.
SQL*Loader-00410: Number to skip must be load-level, not table-level
Cause: A SKIP clause was found in the INTO TABLE statement of a standard
(non-continued) load. In a standard load, specified with LOAD DATA, it is not
possible to skip a different number of records for each table. The number of
records to skip must be specified for the entire load by using the SKIP parameter
on the command line or in the OPTIONS clause. If table-level skip is required,
because a different number of records were loaded into each table (only possible
for a multiple- table direct load), then specify a continued load with the
CONTINUE_LOAD statement. See also messages 409 and 411 for more
information.
Action: If the load was not a multiple-table, direct path load, then move the SKIP
clause from the INTO TABLE statements to the command line or to the OPTIONS
clause. Otherwise, specify the load as continued with CONTINUE_LOAD.
SQL*Loader-00411: Only a direct path load may be continued
Cause: The load is specified with CONTINUE_LOAD, but DIRECT=FALSE.
CONTINUE_LOAD is only possible for a direct path load and is only necessary
for a multiple-table, direct path load when a different number of records have
been loaded into each table. See also messages 409 and 410 for more information.
Action: If CONTINUE_LOAD is necessary, specify a direct load and put the
number of records to skip in each INTO TABLE statement. Otherwise, use the
command line or OPTIONS clause to specify the number of records to skip and
use LOAD DATA instead of CONTINUE_LOAD.
SQL*Loader-00412: More columns specified for table string than the maximum
(number)
Cause: More columns were specified for the table than the maximum number
allowed by the database.
Action: Remove the extraneous columns.
SQL*Loader-00413: NULLIF or DEFAULTIF clause specified for filler field string in
table string.
Cause: A NULLIF or DEFAULTIF clause was specified in the SQL*Loader control
file for the named filler field. These options cannot be specified for filler fields.
Action: Remove the NULLIF or DEFAULTIF clause from the field definition.
SQL*Loader-00414: no columns to load for table string
Cause: There were no fields in the data file to be loaded for the table. Probably all
fields were identified as FILLER fields.
Action: Verify that the FILLER attribute was set correctly for the fields.
SQL*Loader-00415: column string in table string cannot use and be the object of an
SDF or LOBFILE
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-21
Cause: The named column is identified as the target of a secondary data file (SDF)
or LOBFILE clause. However, the column also gets it's value from an SDF or
LOBFILE. If a field name is named in an SDF or LOBFILE clause, then that field
cannot have an SDF or LOBFILE clause.
Action: Verify that the SDF and LOBFILE clauses in the SQL*Loader control file
name the correct fields. Also verify that the SDF and LOBFILE clauses are
specified for the correct field.
SQL*Loader-00416: SDF clause for field string in table string references a non
existent field.
Cause: The secondary data file clause for the field identified another field that
doesn't exist in the table definition for the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: Verify the definition of the secondary data file to make sure it identifies
the intended field.
SQL*Loader-00417: SQL string (on column string) not allowed in direct path.
Cause: Because the direct path bypasses SQL processing, the SQL string cannot be
used.
Action: Remove the SQL string or use the conventional path.
SQL*Loader-00418: Bad datafile datatype for column string
Cause: The datatype in the data file specified for the column cannot be used to
load the column. This message is often displayed for columns that need to be
loaded with special features. For example, BFILE columns can only be loaded via
the BFILE directive in the control file; same goes for REF fields. in the SQL*Loader
control file. Similarly, REF columns can only be loaded with theREF datatype in
the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: Determine the datatype of the column in the database check the
documentation for the correct mechanisms to use to load columns of that type.
SQL*Loader-00419: input datatype for column string is not supported when loading
varrays
Cause: The datatype in the SQL*Loader control file for the column is cannot be
used to load data in a varray.
Action: Use a different datatype.
SQL*Loader-00420: unsupported datatype conversion requested for column string
in table string
Cause: The colummn needs to have it's data converted to another datatype before
loading the data. The required conversion cannot be done by sqlldr.
Action: Verify that the correct datatype was specified for the column.
SQL*Loader-00421: error converting data
Cause: This message can be displayed as one of the reasons for rejecting a row.
The sqlldr utility was attempting to convert data for the column from its datatype
in the data file to the datatype for the column in the database. This message
should be followed with another message describing the conversion error.
Action: Correct the data in the data file so that it can be converted.
SQL*Loader-00422: constant element count of number for column string is greater
than maximum, number
Cause: The number of elements specified for a varray column in a table is greater
than the maximum number of elements allowed for the type of the varray column.
35-22 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Increase the number of elements allowed for the type or remove
unwanted elements from the data file.
SQL*Loader-00423: element count is greater than maximum allowed for the column
Cause: When building a varray from the data file, SQL*Loader encountered more
varray elements than are allowed for the column.
Action: The previous error messages contain the name of the column and the row
number containing the bad data.
SQL*Loader-00424: table string makes illegal reference to collection field string
Cause: A WHEN, OID or SID clause for the table refers to a field declared inside
of a collection.
Action: Move the data containing the value for a SID or OID clause outside of the
collection definition.
SQL*Loader-00425: column string makes illegal reference to collection field string
Cause: A clause, such as NULLIF or BFILE clause, for the column refers to a field
declared inside of a collection.
Action: Move the data containing the value for a SID or OID clause outside of the
collection definition.
SQL*Loader-00426: count of elements in VARRAY string comes after the data for
the varray
Cause: The COUNT clause for a VARRAY field indicates that the count of
elements in the varray is stored in another data field. However, that data field
comes after the varray data in the data file. Since finding the count field would
require SQL*Loader to know the number of elements in the VARRAY first,
SQL*Loader requires that the count field come before the VARRAY data.
Action: Move the count field to be before the collection data in the data file.
SQL*Loader-00427: a field condition references a non-scalar field or a LOB field
string
Cause: The field condition is referencing a field which is either a nested table,
varray, column object, LOB or BILE field. These fields with these typescannot be
references by other field.
Action: Correct the NULLIF, DEFAULTIF, or WHEN clauses to reference only
non-LOB scalar data fields.
SQL*Loader-00428: count for field string not stored in character or integer field
Cause: The count clause for a field references another field, but the referenced
field is not a character or integer datatype.
Action: Modify the count field so that it reference a a data field that has the count
in an integere or character format.
SQL*Loader-00429: insufficient number of elements found for varray
Cause: The COUNT directive was specified for a varray, but the number of
elements found is less than the number specified by the COUNT directive.
Action: Correct the data so that the count and the number of elements agree.
SQL*Loader-00430: NULL nested table element is not allowed
Cause: A row in a nested table was set to NULL. Nested tables cannot contain
NULL fields.
Action: Correct the data so that there are no NULL rows in the nested table.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-23
SQL*Loader-00431: illegal NULLIF or DEFAULTIF clause specified for nested table
column string
Cause: Rows in a nested table cannot be set to NULL. SQLLDR displays this error
when a NULLIF clause was specified for the element that defines the row that
make up a nested table. SQLLDR also displays this error if a DEFAULTIF clause is
specified for an element that is a named type, since SQLLDR will set a named type
to NULL if the DEFAULTIF evaluates to TRUE.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00432: converted data too large
Cause: This message is preceded by a message identifying a row and column. It is
displayed when there is insufficient room to convert the data from the datatype in
the input file to the datatype for the column in the database.
Action: Modify the data so that it fits in the database field.
SQL*Loader-00433: no attributes found for column object string in table string
Cause: No attributes are to be loaded for a column object named in the control
file. This can happen if all fields in the definition for the column object in the
control are designated as FILLER fields.
Action: Either specify attributes to load for the column object or remove the
column object from the control file.
SQL*Loader-00434: Can not load LOB/XML in a nested table along with the parent
table.
Cause: Loading LOBs and XML data within a nested table at the same time as the
parent table is not supported.
Action: Load the nested table with the LOB or XML column separately from the
parent table.
SQL*Loader-00435: invalid constant value string for nested table column string
Cause: A constant value was specified for the SETID of a nested table column. An
error occured while translating the character constant into a SETID.
Action: Make sure the constant string contains valid hexadecimal characters and
that there are 32 hexadecimal characters.
SQL*Loader-00436: error converting GUID
Cause: The value of the field named in the message is used to populate the
column named in the messsage. Because column is a Set ID or an Object ID, the
field needs to be converted. This message indicates that there was a conversion
error. If the field is a character field, then the conversion error could be caused by
too many or too few haxeadecimal charactersI. Also, one or more of the characters
in the field might not be a valid hexadecimal character. If the field contains RAW
data, then either too many or to few bytes were specified for the field.
Action: Fix the data and reload the row.
SQL*Loader-00437: enabled constraint not allowed on LOB column string
Cause: An enabled constraint was present on a LOB column.
Action: Disable the constraint and try again.
SQL*Loader-00440: Invalid table specified as scope of a REF
Cause: As part of the REF directive one specifies the table name or another fields
name which contains the table name of the table which the REF references.
35-24 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Make sure that the right referenced table name is specified.
SQL*Loader-00456: end of collection found after number elements when looking for
number elements
Cause: A count value was specified for a varray or nested table column and the
number of rows found is less than the number of rows specified
Action: Verify that the count field has the correct value and that there is no
missing data for the collection.
SQL*Loader-00457: Comparison text of CONTINUEIF LAST must have length 1 not
number
Cause: The comparison text is too long. It can only be one character.
Action: Reduce the comparison text to one character.
SQL*Loader-00458: Comparison text ('string') of CONTINUEIF LAST must be
non-whitespace
Cause: The comparison text is a whitespace character (blank or tab).
Action: Change the comparison text to a non-whitespace character.
SQL*Loader-00459: error fetching numeric value for sequence on column (string)
Cause: An attempt was made to retrieve a non-numeric value for a sequenced
column.
Action: Verify that the data for the sequenced column is numeric. Then retry the
operation.
SQL*Loader-00460: Column (string), form of use (number) does not match char set
id of (number)
Cause: The given column with the given form of use does not have the same
character set ID as a previous column with the same form of use.
Action: This should not happen. Contact ORACLE support and supply the
following information: DDL for the table being loaded, and the SQL*Loader
control file. ADDED in 8.1
SQL*Loader-00461: direct path loading of datatype for column string not supported
Cause: The datatype for the specified column is one that cannot be loaded with
direct path.
Action: If the datatype is supported with conventional path, load the table using
conventional path.
SQL*Loader-00462: error inserting LOB into column string, row number, table string
Cause: An error occurred while attempting to write a lob into a row.
Action: See accompanying messages describing why the LOB could not be
loaded, what actions sqlldr took (if any), and where the errors may be in order to
reload.
SQL*Loader-00463: secondary data file for LOB is string
Cause: The secondary data file that was in use for populating the LOB when an
error occured.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00464: file offset for beginning of lob is string
Cause: The offset into the secondary data file that contains the start of the LOB
that was being written when an error occured.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-25
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00465: string directive expects number arguments, number found.
Cause: You specified a directive such as COUNT() or BFILE() in the SQL*Loader
control file. This directive specifies a fixed number of arguments, but the
SQL*Loader control file contains a different number of arguments.
Action: Correct the SQL*Loader control file so that the directive contains the
correct number of arguments.
SQL*Loader-00466: Column string does not exist in table string.
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file specified a table column that does not exist.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00467: attribute string does not exist in type string for table string.
Cause: The SQL*Loader control file specified an attribute that does not exist for
the specified type. The table that contains the type is also identified in the error
message.
Action: Verify that the correct table in the correct schema is named in the
SQL*Loader control file. Also verify that the column name is spelled correctly.
SQL*Loader-00468: OID directive expects 1 argument, number found.
Cause: More than one argument was specified for an OID clause.
Action: Specify the name of the field containing the value to use for the OID. If
the OID for the table is user-defined, then do not use the OID clause in the control
file.
SQL*Loader-00469: SID directive expects 1 argument, number found.
Cause: More than one argument was specified for a SID clause.
Action: Only specify the name of the field containing the value to use for the SID
in the SID clause.
SQL*Loader-00470: table string does not have system generated OID
Cause: You specified an OID clause for a table but the table is either not an object
table or the table is an object table but the OIDs for the rows are not system
generated.
Action: Verify that the you are loading the correct table. If you are, then you must
not specify the OID clause for this table. You should use the OID clause only when
the table is an object table, has system generated OIDs and when you want to
specify OIDs to be assigned to each row of the table.
SQL*Loader-00471: OID or SID clause has an argument that is CONSTANT
Cause: You specified a CONSTANT as an argument in an OID clause for an object
table or in the SID clause for a nested table column. Since these columns must
have unique values, SQL Loader does not allow the a constant to be specified for
their values.
Action: Store the OID for each row in a filler field and specify the name of the
filler field as an argument.
SQL*Loader-00472: collections can contain only one non FILLER field specification
Cause: More than one non filler field specification is found in a collection field's
member field list.
Action: See correct syntax in the Utilities Manual. If indeed there is more than one
attribute that makes up the particular collection, then it must be a collection of a
35-26 Oracle Database Error Messages
object type which needs to be specified using the COLUMN OBJECT field
specification syntax.
SQL*Loader-00473: nesting of collections is not allowed.
Cause: Nesting of one collection type field description within another is not
allowed.
Action: Verify that collection nesting is attempted in the SQL*Loader control file.
Correct the mistake.
SQL*Loader-00474: no value set for dynamic file for column string in table string
row number
Cause: The data for the named column is in a dynamic LOBFILE or secondary
data file. This message is returned when the field containing the name of the file
with the data for this field has not been set or is NULL. This could be because the
record in the data file does not match the format described by the SQL*Loader
control file.
Action: Correct any errors in the data file or the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00475: field for dynamic file name is string in table string
Cause: This message is always displayed after message 474.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00476: count of elements for collection is not set or null, 0 will be used
Cause: This message is displayed following a message that identifies the column
and row that contained the problem. The message indicates that the collection
field named in the previous message has the count of elements in the collection
stored in another field. This message is displayed if the field containing the count
does not have a value or is set to NULL. When this happens, SQL*Loader uses 0 as
the number of elements.
Action: If 0 is not the count of elementsfor the collection, correct the data in the
data file.
SQL*Loader-00477: REF directive for field string requires at least two arguments
Cause: The SQL Loader control file contains a REF directive for the field, but only
one argument was supplied for the directive. The REF directive always requires at
least two arguments.
Action: Supply the missing argument to the REF directive. Remember that you
must always supply a table name to the REF directive even if the REF is scoped.
SQL*Loader-00478: unable to continue due to missing filename for LOBFILE or
SDF
Cause: The name for a LOBFILE or secondary data file is either missing or NULL
for the current row. SQL*Loader is unable to continue loading since it can't
determine how to get the LOB for the next row.
Action: Correct the data file so that there are valid values for all fields containing
the names of LOBFILEs and secondary data files.
SQL*Loader-00479: REF directive for column string expects number arguments;
found number.
Cause: The number of arguments in the REF directive for the column is incorrect.
Action: Specify the correct number of arguments for REF. Remember that the REF
directive always requires a table name. Also, primary key REFs require one
arguments for each field in the primary key.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-27
SQL*Loader-00480: EXPRESSION may not be used with elements of a collection.
Cause: The EXPRESSION keyword is followed by a required SQL string
expression and is used to load a column with the result of the SQL string
expression instead of with a value from the input data file. However, this
capability is not allowed with elements of a collection.
Action: Remove the EXPRESSION keyword and associated SQL string from the
collection element in the control file.
SQL*Loader-00481: HIDDEN may not be used with non-scalar fields.
Cause: The HIDDEN keyword is only allowed for scalar fields.
Action: Remove the HIDDEN keyword from the non-scalar field in the control
file.
SQL*Loader-00486: sql-strings may not be specified for collection field string
Cause: A sql-string was specified as part of the description of the field that is
inside a nested table or varray. Sql-strings cannot be used to load a field in a
varrary or nested tables.
Action: Remove the sql-string from the field description. Modify the data file so
that it contains the values to be loaded into the column in the collection.
SQL*Loader-00487: COUNT clause required for collection string
Cause: A VARRAY or NESTED TABLE was defined in the SQL Loader control file
and all of the fields in the VARRAY or NESTED TABLE are generated by SQL
Loader and do not come from a data file. SQL Loader requires a COUNT clause be
specified so that it knows how many elements to add to the VARRAY or NESTED
TABLE for each row.
Action: Add a COUNT clause to the VARRAY or NESTED TABLE definition.
SQL*Loader-00488: string not a named collection type for filler field string
Cause: The FILLER option was specified for a VARRAY or NESTED TABLE field
in the SQL Loader control file. However, the type name specified for the field is
not the name of a VARRAY or NESTED TABLE type.
Action: Verify that the correct type name was specified. If the type is defined in a
different schema, also verify that the correct schema name is specified.
SQL*Loader-00489: cannot insert NULL object into object table string, row number
Cause: There was no data specified in the control file, a lob file, or a secondary
data file for this object column.
Action: Place valid data for this column in the appropriate file prior to invoking
SQL*Loader to load data into this table.
SQL*Loader-00490: absolute position is not allowed for inline collections
Cause: The absolute position specification was used for inline collections.
Specifying the absolute position for inline collections is not supported.
Action: Use relative positioning for inline collections.
SQL*Loader-00500: Unable to open file (string)
Cause: SQL*Loader could not open the named file.
Action: Check the operating system messages below this one in the log file.
SQL*Loader-00501: Unable to read file (string)
Cause: SQL*Loader could not read the named file.
35-28 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Check the operating system messages following this message in the log
file.
SQL*Loader-00502: unable to open data file 'string' for field string table string
Cause: An attempt to open a LOBFILE or secondary data file failed.
Action: Check the operating system messages following this message for
information on why the open failed. Verify that the correct name is specified for
the LOBFILE or secondary data file.
SQL*Loader-00503: Error appending extension to file (string)
Cause: SQL*Loader could not append the default extension to create the filename.
The given name could be too long or contain illegal characters.
Action: Check the specified filename.
SQL*Loader-00504: Error skipping records in file (string)
Cause: SQL*Loader could not open the file or could not read from it.
Action: Check that the file is where it is expected and that read access has been
granted.
SQL*Loader-00505: error reading LOBFILE
Cause: An attempt to read a secondary data file failed.
Action: Check the operating system message that follows this message for more
information.
SQL*Loader-00506: formatting error reading SDF or LOBFILE string for column
string in table string
Cause: The the record format of the named LOBFILE or SDF file is incorrect.
Action: Fix the record formatting problems in the file.
SQL*Loader-00507: unexpected EOF reading SDF or LOBFILE string for column
string in table string
Cause: The end of file was reached for a secondary data file or LOBFILE before
the data for the current row was found.
Action: If the file is a LOBFILE, verify the correct datatype was specified for the
field. If the file is a secondary data file, make sure the record format is specified
correctly in the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00508: record formating error in data file string
Cause: The data found in the data file does not correspond to the record format in
the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: Verify that all records in the data file match the format as described in the
SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00509: System error: string
Cause: A platform-specific error was returned during an operation. This message
is used to display the text of the error.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00510: Physical record in data file (string) is longer than the
maximum(number)
Cause: The datafile has a physical record that is too long.
Action: Use CONCATENATE or CONTINUEIF. Break up the physical records.

Cause: The specified file cannot be found.
Action: verify that the correct name exists and whether the file is in the intended
location.
SQL*Loader-00554: error opening file
Cause: An error occurred while trying to open the file. No further information is
available.
Action: Verify that the file is accessible.
SQL*Loader-00555: unrecognized processing option
Cause: The processing option specified for the file cannot be processed.
35-32 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: Verify that the processing options specified for the file contain legal
syntax for the platform where SQL*Loader is running.
SQL*Loader-00556: unable to allocate read buffer
Cause: Attempt to allocate the read buffer failed.
Action: If possible, try specifying a smaller size for the read buffer.
SQL*Loader-00557: unable to allocate memory
Cause: An attempt to allocate some memory to track I/O for the file failed.
Action: Contact customer support.

terminating character(s).
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-33
SQL*Loader-00567: unable to derive file name
Cause: An error occured while attempting to build a name for a data file, bad file,
discard file or log file.
Action: Instead of relying on SQL Loader to build these file names, try specifying
full file specifications for these files in the control file or on the SQL Loader
command line.
SQL*Loader-00568: error writing to file
Cause: Unexpected error occured while writing to a file. This message is followed
by another message with more information about the error.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00569: READSIZE parameter exceeds maximum value string for
platform
Cause: The value specified for the READSIZE parameter on the SQL Loader
command line was larger than the maximum size allowed on the platform
executing the SQL Loader command
Action: Decrease the size of the READSIZE parameter to be less than the
maximum size allowed on the platform.
SQL*Loader-00570: Warning: single bad file specification with multiple data files
using string file may get overwritten.
Cause: The value specified for the BADFILE parameter contained something
other than a directory specification (for example, it contained a file name). The
INFILE specification had wildcards or the data command line parameter
specification contained a comma-separated list or wildcards and the result was
more than one data file. In that case, the BADFILE specification or the BAD
command line parameter value should be a directory specification only and
should not contain a file name.
Action: No action is needed. This is a warning. However, for a parallel load with
external tables or express mode, the file may get overwritten or may get corrupted
due to contention on the file by multiple parallel query slaves. Try the operation
again with a directory only or omit the parameter and use the default bad file
name.
SQL*Loader-00571: Warning: single discard file specification with multiple data
files, using string, but file may get overwritten.
Cause: The value specified for the DISCARDFILE parameter contained something
other than a directory specification (for example, it contained a file name). The
INFILE specification had wildcards or the data command line parameter
specification contained a comma-separated list or wildcards and the result was
more than one data file. In that case, the DISCARDFILE specification or the
DISCARD command line parameter value should be a directory specification only
and should not contain a file name.
Action: No action is needed. This is a warning. However, for a parallel load with
external tables or express mode, the file may get overwritten or may get corrupted
due to contention on the file by multiple parallel query slaves. Try the operation
again with a directory only or omit the parameter and use the default discard file
name.
SQL*Loader-00572: Warning: cannot add "_\%p" to string for file string. Using file
name as is.
35-34 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: SQL*Loader could not add "_%p" to the file name. The name specified or
the derived name may be too long.
Action: No action is needed. This is a warning. However, for a parallel load with
external tables or express mode, the file may be overwritten or may get corrupted
due to contention on the file by multiple parallel query slaves. Try the operation
again with a shorter file name.
SQL*Loader-00573: Error opening the directory (string), failed with return code
[number].
Cause: An error occurred while trying to open the directory (see accompanying
error code).
Action: Verify that the directory is accessible.
SQL*Loader-00574: Check the log file: string for more information about the load.
Cause: Informational only.
Action: No action is needed.
SQL*Loader-00575: Check the log files: string string for more information about the
load.
Cause: Informational only.
Action: No action is needed.
SQL*Loader-00576: Error getting count of entries for directory (string), failed with
return code [number].
Cause: An error occurred while trying to get the count of directory entries (see
accompanying error code).
Action: Verify that the directory is accessible.
SQL*Loader-00577: Error reading the directory (string), failed with return code
[number].
Cause: An error occurred while trying to read the directory (see accompanying
error code).
Action: Verify that the directory is accessible.
SQL*Loader-00578: Error finishing wild card search in directory (string), failed with
return code [number].
Cause: An error occurred while trying to finish a search for files in a directory that
match a wild card specification (see accompanying error code).
Action: This is an informational message. No action is needed.
SQL*Loader-00579: switching to direct path for the load
Cause: SQL*Loader could not use the external tables load method for the express
mode load. Therefore SQL*Loader tried to use direct path for the load instead of
external tables. See any previous messages for more information.
Action: No action is needed. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00582: Warning: cannot remove "_\%p" from string for file string.
Using file name as is.
Cause: SQL*Loader could not remove "_%p" from the file name.
Action: No action is needed. This is a warning. The file name was used as is.
SQL*Loader-00583: ignoring trim setting with string, using value of LDRTRIM
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-35
Cause: SQL*Loader was doing a direct path or conventional path load.
SQL*Loader only supports LDRTRIM for direct path and conventional path.
Therefore, LDRTRIM trimming was used for the load. You can get the equivalent
of NOTRIM trimming if you use a control file and use the PRESERVE BLANKS
clause.
Action: No action is needed. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00584: ignoring DEGREE_OF_PARALLELISM setting with string,
using value of NONE
Cause: DEGREE_OF_PARALLELISM was not supported by SQL*Loader for
direct path and conventional path loads. Therefore, the DEGREE_OF_
PARALLELISM setting was ignored for the load and treated as a value of NONE.
Action: No action is needed. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00585: defaulting DEGREE_OF_PARALLELISM to NONE since
load=number was specified
Cause: DEGREE_OF_PARALLELISM was defaulted to NONE by SQL*Loader
because load=n was specified. This assures consistency in the records which get
loaded with load=n.
Action: No action is needed. This is an informational message.
SQL*Loader-00600: Bind size of number bytes increased to number bytes to hold 1
row.
Cause: The space needed to contain a single row is longer than the specified bind
size. The value used for the bind size will be increased to handle the larger size
Action: No action is required. This message will go away if the new value in the
error message is specified for the bind size.
SQL*Loader-00601: For INSERT option, table must be empty. Error on table string
Cause: A non-empty table is being loaded with the INSERT option.
Action: Use the REPLACE keyword to empty the old table and store the new data
in its place. Use the APPEND keyword to leave the table's contents intact and add
the new data to it.
SQL*Loader-00602: Maximum converted length number of column string is too big
for bind array
Cause: The named column cannot undergo the specified character set conversion
and still be placed in a contiguous piece of memory on the system.
Action: Specify a shorter data column or eliminate the conversion.
SQL*Loader-00603: Maximum length number of column string is too big for bind
array
Cause: The named column cannot be put in a contiguous piece of memory on the
system.
Action: Specify a shorter data column.
SQL*Loader-00604: Error occurred on an attempt to commit
Cause: An error occurred while trying to commit changes to the database.
Action: Look at the message listed below this one in the log file for more
information.
SQL*Loader-00605: Non-data dependent ORACLE error occurred -- load
discontinued.
35-36 Oracle Database Error Messages
Cause: An error occurred that is independent of the data. For example, an
out-of-space condition. Because all further rows will be rejected, the load is
discontinued. (If the error were data dependent, then other rows might succeed.)
Action: See the errors below this one in the log file for more information.
SQL*Loader-00606: Object string in INTO TABLE clause is not a local table
Cause: The synonym specified in the INTO TABLE clause in the SQL*Loader
control file specifies a remote object via a database link. Only a synonym for an
existing local table can be specified in the INTO TABLE clause.
Action: Ensure that a local table name or a synonym for a local table is fully
specified in the INTO TABLE clause. The table must already exist.
SQL*Loader-00607: partition not empty for INSERT option; table string, partition
string
Cause: An attempt was made to use the INSERT option on a non-empty partition.
Action: Empty the partition, or use the REPLACE or TRUNCATE option.
SQL*Loader-00608: subpartition not empty for INSERT option; table string,
subpartition string
Cause: An attempt was made to use the INSERT option on a non-empty
subpartition.
Action: Empty the subpartition, or use the REPLACE or TRUNCATE option.
SQL*Loader-00609: value used for ROWS parameter changed from number to
number
Cause: SQL Loader adjusted the value it was using for the ROWS parameter to
the new value reported. This is an informational message and not an error. SQL
Loader will adjust the value of the ROWS parameter if the amount of memory
specified by BINDSIZE is not large enough to hold data for the number of rows
specified. SQL Loader will also change the value of the ROWS parameter for
conventional path loads if the value is larger than 65534. Conventional path load
can load at most 65534 rows at a time.
Action: If the limit of 65534 rows for conventional path load is not being reached,
then try increasing the value of BINDSIZE.
SQL*Loader-00610: cannot load system partitioned table string; partition name(s)
required
Cause: An attempt was made to load a system partitioned table with no
partitioning clause specified in the SQL*Loader control file.
Action: Specify the partition name(s) in the SQL*Loader control file.
SQL*Loader-00620: Initial enclosure character not found
Cause: A mandatory initial enclosure delimiter was not present. Either it is
missing on the current field or the previous field is missing an identical closing
delimiter.
Action: Supply the missing delimiters.
SQL*Loader-00621: Field in data file exceeds maximum length
Cause: A field exceeded its maximum allowable length. The maximum length is
either the length specified in the SQL*Loader control file, or, for delimitable fields
without a length specified, the default maximum length (255 bytes).
Action: Check for missing delimiters and/or shorten the field.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-37
SQL*Loader-00622: Column not found before end of logical record (use TRAILING
NULLCOLS)
Cause: The logical record ended before all specified fields were found.
Action: If the missing fields should be loaded as null, use the TRAILING
NULLCOLS clause. Otherwise, correct the data.
SQL*Loader-00623: second enclosure string not present
Cause: The logical end of record or the end of a LOBFILE was reached before a
second enclosure delimiter was found.
Action: Correct the data file to include the missing delimiter.
SQL*Loader-00624: no terminator found after TERMINATED and ENCLOSED
field
Cause: No termination delimiter was found after the enclosed field ended.
Action: Supply the missing termination delimiter.
SQL*Loader-00625: Multibyte character error in control file.
Cause: Incomplete multi-byte character strings were found in the SQL*Loader
control file.
Action: Edit the SQL*Loader control file to check that all multi-byte character data
is valid.
SQL*Loader-00626: Character set conversion buffer overflow.
Cause: A conversion from the datafile character set to the client character set
required more space than that allocated for the conversion buffer. The size of the
conversion buffer is limited by the maximum size of a varchar2 column.
Action: The input record is rejected. The data will not fit into the column.
SQL*Loader-00627: Character set conversion graph not available.
Cause: A conversion from the datafile character set to the client character failed
due to the conversion graph not being available.
Action: Contact Oracle support. Check NLSRTL installation.
SQL*Loader-00628: Character set conversion error.
Cause: A character set conversion error occurred.
Action: Contact Oracle support. Check NLSRTL installation. Provide a
reproduceable test case.
SQL*Loader-00640: Variable length field was truncated.
Cause: The end of the logical record was encountered before the end of a variable
length field. The length of each variable-length field is embedded in the field, so
SQL*Loader knows that more data should have been present.
Action: Check the data for inadvertent truncation and verify the SQL*Loader
control file specifications against the log file; the field may be starting in the wrong
place.
SQL*Loader-00641: Invalid packed decimal nibble.
Cause: Each byte in a packed decimal field contains two 4-bit nibbles. Each nibble
must have a valid value.
Action: Check the SQL*Loader control file's specifications against the log file to
ensure that the field location was specified correctly. Check the contents of the
field.
35-38 Oracle Database Error Messages
SQL*Loader-00642: Relative start position > absolute field end position.
Cause: A field specified as POSITION(*+n:y) had its relative start occur after the
absolute position y.
Action: Check that a delimiter is not missing and that the values of n and y are
correct.
SQL*Loader-00643: error executing INSERT statement for table string
Cause: A fatal error occured while attempting to insert data into the table.
Action: Refer to the messages that follow for more information. If you specified
SQL stings for any of your columns, verify that strings are correct. Specifcally,
check for balanced parenthesis and correct use of quotation marks. Another format
error
SQL*Loader-00644: end of logical record found when reading length of varying
length field
Cause: While attempting to read the length portion of a varying length field, then
end of the logical record was reached.
Action: Verify that the SQL*Loader control file describes the data correctly and
that the data in the data file matches the description in the SQL*Loader control file
SQL*Loader-00645: error converting character length field to a number
Cause: An error occurred while attempting to convert the characters containing
the count portion of a VARCHARC or VARRAWC field.
Action: Verify that the count portion for the column has the correct value.
SQL*Loader-00646: lob set to EMPTY in column string, row number, table string
Cause: Encountered errors (e.g. parsing errors in LOBFILE) while loading LOBs.
The row will remain in the table and its LOB column will be initialized to empty.
Loading of other records will continue.
Action: Correct the data file (see accompanying messages) and reload.
SQL*Loader-00647: Integer to number conversion error
Cause: An error occurred while attempting to convert an integer to an Oracle
number format.
Action: Verify that the integer field in the data file is a valid integer. If the
INTEGER(N) syntax was used, then verify that the length specified is valid.
SQL*Loader-00649: Quoted string missing closing quote
Cause: A quoted string in the control file is missing a closing quote.
Action: Insert the closing quote as appropriate.
SQL*Loader-00650: incomplete lob data written for column string, row number,
table string
Cause: Encountered errors (e.g. parsing errors in LOBFILE) while loading LOBs
using direct path. The row will remain in the table and its LOB column may not be
complete. Loading of other records will continue.
Action: Correct the data file (see accompanying messages) and reload.
SQL*Loader-00651: error skipping lob for column string, row number, table string
Cause: Encountered errors (e.g. parsing errors in LOBFILE) while skipping LOBs.
Action: Correct the data file (see accompanying messages) and reload.
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-39
SQL*Loader-00652: Invalid zoned decimal byte.
Cause: Each byte of a zoned decimal field must have a valid value based on the
character set encoding used. ASCII-based zoned decimals must follow the formats
specified in the VAX Architecture Reference Manual. EBCDIC-based zoned
decimals must follow the formats specified in the ESA/390 Principles of
Operations, version 8.1.
Action: Check the SQL*Loader control file's specifications against the log file to
ensure that the field location was specified correctly. Check the contents of the
field.
SQL*Loader-00653: XML data set to NULL in column string, row number, table
string
Cause: Encountered errors (e.g. parsing errors in LOBFILE) while loading LOBs
into an XML column. The row will remain in the table and its XML column will be
initialized to null. Loading of other records will continue.
Action: Correct the data file (see accompanying messages) and reload.
SQL*Loader-00654: Variable length field exceeds maximum length.
Cause: A variable length field (with a leading length subfield) exceeded its
maximum allowable length. The maximum length is either the length specified in
the SQL*Loader control file, or, the default if not specified (4kb).
Action: Shorten the field and its length.
SQL*Loader-00655: cannot load object-relational XML attribute using direct path
Cause: The table being loaded contains a column object which contains an XML
attribute with a storage type of object-relational. This type of attribute cannot be
loaded with direct path.
Action: Perform the load with conventional path mode.
SQL*Loader-00656: position specification for column string is not allowed in
external table loads
Cause: Use of a position specification was present in an external table load.
Action: Either remove the position specification, change the position specification
to a field name reference, use direct path, or use conventional path.
SQL*Loader-00657: table string loaded using number passes, partition memory limit
was numberkb
Cause: Due to memory use, multiple passes were used to load some partitions.
Action: To decrease the number of passes, consider increasing the partition
memory limit using the PARTITION_MEMORY command line option, or by
increasing PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET. Note that increasing the limit too much
can cause the load to run out of memory.
SQL*Loader-00700: Out of memory while performing essential allocations [number]
Cause: SQL*Loader could not allocate the memory it needs.
Action: Check the operating system and process memory. Increase memory
available to SQL*Loader, if possible. If using direct path, try lowering the
columnarrayrows option (see log file for current default value).

do not use external table load.
SQL*Loader-00805: Option string not supported by string
Cause: The specified option is not supported by external table or express mode
load.
Action: Remove the specified option or do not use external table load or express
mode load.

specified an unknown file processing option.
Action: Verify the correct options are specified for the platform being used.
SQL*Loader-00807: error loading table
Cause: An INSERT statement used to load a table from an external table or a
temporary internal table failed. The statement that failed is shown immediately
preceding this mesage.
Action: See subsequent messages for more information about the error.
SQL*Loader-00808: error creating sequence: string
Cause: An attempt to create a sequence needed for the load failed.
Action: See messages that follow this one for information about the failure.
SQL*Loader-00809: error dropping sequence: string
Cause: A sequence needed to be dropped either because SQL Loader found a
sequence with the same name it is trying to create or because SQL Loader is
cleaning up from sequences it created at the beginning of the load.
Action: See messages that follow this one for information about why the attampt
to drop the sequence failed.
SQL*Loader-00810: error creating external table: string

35-42 Oracle Database Error Messages
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00812: error creating internal table: string
Cause: An error was encountered trying to create a temporary internal table. The
internal table is used only when loading multiple tables from the same data file.
The internal table is loaded once and the target tables are loaded from the internal
table.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00813: error dropping internal table: string
Cause: An error was encountered trying to drop a temporary internal table. The
internal table is used only when loading multiple tables from the same data file.
The internal table is loaded once and the target tables are loaded from the internal
table. The internal table may have been left from a previous build.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00816: error creating temporary directory object string for file string
Cause: No existing directory object was found in the database for the directory
containing the file. Since all files loaded by external tables must be in a directory
named by a directory object, SQL Loader tried to create a directory object for the
file.
Action: See error messages that follow this message for more information.
SQL*Loader-00817: error dropping directory object string
Cause: SQL Loader created a directory object as part of an external table load. An
attempt to cleanup the directory object failed.
Action: See messages following this one for more information about the error.
SQL*Loader-00820: cannot create WHERE clause with POSITION syntax for table
string
Cause: The EXTERNAL_TABLE parameter was specified for a multi-table load,
and a WHEN clause for one of the tables contained a reference to a range of bytes
in the record using POSITION syntax. SQL*Loader uses the WHEN clause from
the control file to generate the WHERE clause in the INSERT statement. If the
WHERE clause contains a reference to a range of bytes in the table, then a valid
WHERE clause cannot be generated. Note that SQL*Loader will proceed as if
GENERATE_ONLY was specified for the EXTERNAL_TABLE parameter.
Action: Modify the control file to only use field name references in the WHEN
clause. Note that this may require creating a filler field. Another alternative is to
create one control file for each table to be loaded and load the tables separately. In
that case, SQL*Loader can use the access parameter list LOAD WHEN syntax to
specify the range of bytes using POSITION syntax for a single table.
SQL*Loader-00821: switching to GENERATE_ONLY
Cause: SQL Loader is not able to execute the SQL statements it generated for
loading the data using external tables. See previous messages for more
information.
Action: None
SQL*Loader-00822: operation not supported on external organized table
Cause: User attempted on operation on an external table which is not supported.
Action: Don't do that!
SQL*Loader-00100 to SQL*Loader-03120 35-43
SQL*Loader-00823: TREAT AS clause for object tables not supported for external
tables
Cause: A TREAT AS clause was specified in the INTO TABLE clause for an object
table in the SQL*Loader control file and the EXTERNAL_TABLES command line
parameter was set to either EXECUTE or GENERATE_ONLY. External tables can
be used to load the data, but SQL*Loader does not generate the correct SQL
statements to do this.
Action: Use SQL*Loader direct path or SQL*Loader conventional path to load the
table.
SQL*Loader-00824: column type string not supported by string
Cause: The column type was not supported by external table or express mode
using the external table load method.
Action: Do not use external table or express mode using the external table load
method. Try the load using conventional path or direct path as the load method.

SQL*Loader-00916: Error checking path homogeneity
Cause: To do a direct path load load when the front end and back end of the
database are on separate hardware systems, the systems must be identical, using
the same machine, operating system, and character set. This error occurs when
SQL*Loader detects a difference between the systems that will prevent a direct
load from operating properly.
Action: Use a conventional path load for this configuration.
SQL*Loader-00918: The catalog must be loaded (as SYS) for SQL*Loader to be used
Cause: The catalog is not loaded.
