RE: import from 8i to 9i /IMP-00003:ORA-02298
Update...
Oracle filed a bug (#3083916) to resolve
this and they suggested a workaround for the time being..
We have function based indexes on the
associated PKs and dropping those indexes letting us enable the
constraints.

Just to update you all...
I am not having any problems if I setup a
db link from 9i to 8i and get the data then enable the
constraints.
Oracle asked me to create a test case for
them. I have sent them all the information they have asked for.
Thanks,

Surendra,
Go back
to the 8i database and run a query to see if parent records exist for all
child records. It sounds like your source database is
bad.

I am wondering if the ftp(I did it

import from 8i to 9i /IMP-00003:ORA-02298
Hello All, We are working on migrating 8i databases to 9i. As Sun boxes are not available yet, I have decided to do some experiments on my PC. I am trying to import into 9i database using export dump file of 8i database. I have my 8i database created in US7ASCII and I have created 9i database also in US7ASCII with UTF8, just to make sure that I won't hit any conversion issues. When I tried to import the data into this newly created database it is giving me some strange ORA-02298: cannot validate (CMS.FK_OF_VS_SYSID) - parent keys not found errors. I have verified that the data in 8i database is valid. I have successfully imported into an existing 8i database with no problem. I am wondering if the Character set conversion the import utility is doing making any difference. The following are the messages I am getting when I invoked import: == import done in WE8MSWIN1252 character set and UTF8 NCHAR character set import server uses US7ASCII character set (possible charset conversion) export client uses US7ASCII character set (possible charset conversion) export server uses US7ASCII NCHAR character set (possible ncharset conversion) == I have gone through the globalization support guide and concluded that I should not worry about charctersets if I am not using any special datatypes or NCHAR datatypes. Please advise me how to resolve this issue. Is character set any issue at all? Do I have to influence the import utility to use the characterset of my interest? I don't want to do this as I will have to do this each time I import. I am wondering if any bug is associated with this. Thanks for your help.

FW: import from 8i to 9i /IMP-00003:ORA-02298
Hi Kirti, As I have mentioned, my data is clean. I could import this data into an existing 8i database. Do you still think that importing data in two passes would fix it? Anything changed form 8i to 9i regarding iport process? I tried catching the invalid data into excetions and did cross checking and observed that I have valid data. I mean to say I could not enable those failed constarints manually as well. Surprisingly my STATUS column in USER_CONSTARINTS tables reads 'ENABLED' for those failed constarints also. Am I missing something?

Re: FW: import from 8i to 9i /IMP-00003:ORA-02298
Surenda, When doing exports and imports of data tables that have constraints the order in which you export and import is critical for the constraints to work properly. The error listed says that it can't find the parent data. Was that table completely imported before the child was imported? Try importing one table at a time to verify that the export/import process is working peoperly. Does the existing data contain any special characters that are different between the different ASCII versions? Have you tried to exports with CONSTRAINTS=N and no constraints on the import tables and then add the constraints AFTER the data import? Ron [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/08/03 02:29PM Hi Kirti, As I have mentioned, my data is clean. I could import this data into an existing 8i database. Do you still think that importing data in two passes would fix it? Anything changed form 8i to 9i regarding iport process? I tried catching the invalid data into excetions and did cross checking and observed that I have valid data. I mean to say I could not enable those failed constarints manually as well. Surprisingly my STATUS column in USER_CONSTARINTS tables reads 'ENABLED' for those failed constarints also. Am I missing something?

Re: import from 8i to 9i /IMP-00003:ORA-02298
Can u check in source database if the constraint is set to enable novalidate . It might have some data integrity problem in old data . -ak - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 2:09 PM Yes, I am sure. Just to make sure, I have compared the counts from export log file and import log file. Also I compared it with import log file I did in to 8i database. What I did with two pass import is..first I have imported with constarints=n then I imported with ROWS=N CONSTARINTS=Y. So I am not doing any truncates. And to make sure again... I have tried troubleshooting one of the failed constraints with smallest table: Table TWESVS is having FK, FK_OF_VS_SYSID on column TWESVS.VS_OFF_SYSID referring to TWESOF.OF_OFF_SYSID. 1) The Error: IMP-3: ORACLE error 2298 encountered ORA-02298: cannot validate (CMS.FK_OF_VS_SYSID) - parent keys not found 2) The constraint definition: ALTER TABLE CMS.TWESVS ADD CONSTRAINT FK_OF_VS_SYSID FOREIGN KEY (VS_OFF_SYSID) REFERENCES CMS.TWESOF (OF_OFF_SYSID) ON DELETE CASCADE; 3) The user_constarints entry SQL select constraint_name, status from user_constraints where constraint_name='FK_OF_VS_SYSID'; CONSTRAINT_NAMESTATUS -- FK_OF_VS_SYSID ENABLED 4) And I tried disabling and then enabling manually, it gave ORA-02298 error. Also I tried to catch the bad data into excetions. The data in TWESVS.VS_OFF_SYSID ranges from values 1 to 107 (with some values missing) and the data in TWESOF.OF_OFF_SYSID ranges from 1 to 109. And the following query returned no rows. Please help me what could be the reason.

I could import this data into an existing 8i database. Do you still think that importing data in two passes would fix it? Anything changed form 8i to 9i regarding iport process? I tried catching the invalid data into excetions and did cross checking and observed that I have valid data. I mean to say I could not enable those failed constarints manually as well. Surprisingly my STATUS column in USER_CONSTARINTS tables reads 'ENABLED' for those failed constarints also. Am I missing something?
