Database Error Messages

ORA-39402

The log or SQL file cannot overwrite dump file "string".

Cause

The name and location of the Data Pump log or SQL file matched the name of an existing Data Pump, external table, or legacy dump file. This message may be seen before the Data Pump job has started or after the job has started, if wildcard dump files are being used.


Action

If this message is seen before the job has started, then retry the operation using a different name or directory object for the log or SQL file. Otherwise, the message is informational and no further action is required.
