EXP do not prompt for password if supplied password is invalid?

c785fc80-fdb9-40c5-a6e3-c2843c47ae2eJul 13 2016 — edited Jul 16 2016

Is there a command-line flag to prevent exp from prompting for a username/password if the supplied one is invalid?

I am running exp in a scheduled batch script. Sometimes an exp task will fail because the password has expired. In these cases exp prompts for a new username/password which blocks the batch script. I would like exp to fail without blocking so other parts of the script can run. Such errors are audited regularly so the password would be updated at a later date.

I wasn't able to find anything applicable in the documentation: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch01.htm

Thanks for your help.
