I was operating under false assumption that parameter ignore=n would somehow stop import process on the very first problem it might stumble on. How silly of me!? Note to self: DO TEST YOUR ASSUMPTIONS (especially if you happen to have strong opinion and/or notion on how certain feature should be working or be implemented...)

Your main problem is the IGNORE=Y parameter. Because of that import is attempting to insert data (possibly invalid) into the precreated tables. I'd try the default, IGNORE=N. Then simply ignore the messages indicating that you are attempting to create a table that already exists. David Grosser -- http://www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
