LRM-00101 unknown parameter name ‘LOC’

afaltynoSep 11 2013 — edited Sep 12 2013

Hi Everyone,

I have been working at trying to learn the syntax of this expdp and having a difficult time with it.  I follow the instructions and examples to the
“T” yet I still get errors.  I have a windows 7 Professional laptop I am using with oracle release 11.2.0.1 instance.  I am just working with this simple query from the scott schema and get the following error:
 

LRM-00101 unknown parameter name  'LOC'

expdp scott/tiger directory=dpump_dir1  dumpfile=scottrows.dmp  query=DEPT:"where LOC='CHICAGO'"

The suggested solution in the documents going by the code is to correct the mis spelling.  LOC is a column name in the DEPT table of the scott schema.

I just ran the following query with the same parameter and it returned rows.

select * from dept where loc = 'CHICAGO';

Is it me?  I am at a loss with this and it is making me doubt my sanity.  Is there some documentation that I am not reading?  I am already reading the Oracle documents and none of their examples work on my laptop.

What is it about this syntax that I am overlooking??

Thanks for your help in advance.

Al
