I do you import SYS objects if you cannot export them even with a full
export?

 

(unless you are referring perhaps to SYSTEM).

Andreas,
 

    Haven't experienced this particular problem, but since nobody has
replied yet, here are some ideas.
    Offhand, it seems your problem might be that you are importing SYS
objects. At least that is where you say your import is hanging. But on
the other hand you say that you are importing 4 users, so I'm confused.
Are you doing a full import? 

    I'm guessing you mean that you exported using 9i using the EXP
utility (rather than imp utility).

    Assuming that you aren't trying to import the SYS objects, you might
try exporting specific types of objects and then importing them. Maybe
just tables to see if it completes.

    The name of the object sounds like maybe export is trying to reset
some object after import. You might Google that name since it is pretty
unique, and also check Metalink.

    Another trick is that you can take the export file and run it
through the Unix "strings" command and get a text file that can be used
to create the objects (ROWS=N). You may have to format for line length.
But you could run that in SQL*Plus and it might run and if it didn't you
might get a better idea of where the problem lies.
