If there is not an entry in the import log aka "import terminated with no errors" or "import terminated with errors" ... and the imp process is still running ... then you need to figure out what is going on exactly.

This is not ( necessarily ) a windows versus unix problem it is just a basic oracle problem.

What was/is the import process waiting on exactly? It is the usual session based diagnostic approach that can be followed here.

Maybe you are in archivelog mode and you are out of space?

Not surprised exactly that Captain Morgan throws in the usual not relevant bashing approach. Received on Sat Sep 29 2007 - 03:26:53 CDT
