Full export with sys and sys object errors
I made a full export on an Oracle 9i database and created a database on a different machine with a different name. When I tried to make the full import I had lots of errors, especially at the sys and sys objects. What should I do?

Without seeing the errors, it is hard to determine your exact problem. But from my experience, I would start off by saying that anything that is noted as a warning can probably be dismissed as just that, a warning. A full export dump should not contain any SYS objects, but it will contains objects owned by SYSTEM. When performing a full import, most of those objects will already exist and you will get an error, so those can be ignored. That is about the best I can tell you without seeing any error messages.
