To find out which records are causing this error do an
alter table enable constraint xxxxxxx exceptions into exceptions;
this exceptions table can be created by running utlexcpxxx
The exceptions table after this statement is run would have rowids of the
rows causing problem. Do a delete of those rows or do an update of the
foreign key to the value which has a primary key on parent.
This would help
