Ok mates, end of the day and the DBA just called to tell me the good news. The erros was in the command I was issuing to import the db I was issuing: imp system/oracle@tcp file=f:\bkp.dmp log=f:\bkp_imp.log fromuser=tcp touser=tcp tablespaces=dados IMP SYSTEM/ORACLE FILE=f:\BKP.DMP FROMUSER=TCP TOUSER=TCP LOG=f:\BKP_IMPORT.LOG BUFFER=100000 The only thing I had to remove was the tablespaces parameter. I found it strange since I used to import with this command. Well, problem solved!
