Actually there was no error message, Oracle took the commands. But after bouncing the database, nothing appeared in the auditing view or in the file which was supposed to be on disk. So, I'm assuming that I did something incorrectly.

I know there are lots of examples, I'm just trying to find the right one so I do not have to keep bouncing the database again and again until I get it right.
