I'm trying to import a *.dmp file from the database of a client into a new install of Oracle XE 11.2.0.
I'm new to Oracle DB, I always used MySQL, so I have searched the forum and used the command from cmd
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin>imp 'system/root AS SYSDBA' file=c:\export.dmp full=yes log=implog.txt
with no luck. The implog.txt is as follows:
Connected to: Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production

IMP-00003: ORACLE error 1435 encountered
ORA-01435: user does not exist
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
Now what I'm reading is:
-the script removes all privileges to user SYSTEM but even though the import fails, after I execute the import I'm no longer able to log in as SYSTEM
-I'm trying to import the *.dmp on a Windows XP 32bit virtual machine, and I think the export has been created on a Windows Vista machine (don't know x86 or x64), but what I'm not understanding is where in the log says "error in creating database file '/home/app/oracle/oradata/ANA/indx01.dbf'". Here it seems a unix path...
-almost everywhere Oracle says it can't create users/tables/indexes because they already exist.. This is a fresh install, or at least it was when I first tried importing. After the first fail I tried to log in as SYSTEM, couldn't so I deleted Oracle XE and reinstalled from scratch, so I think it's a fresh install. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to recreate SYSTEM privileges without deleting and reinstalling everything?
Thank you in advance for your help
EDIT: just received the export log, I've omitted the tables names:

To identify which tablespaces you need to create, you need to find out which tables and indexes are needed, and then see which tablespaces those are built against. The first thing you need to find out is which schemas (users) you need to recreate. From the export log that looks like A00, D00 or both.
You can get the DDL for the tables and indexes, which will include the tablespaces they are built in - by running imp with the INDEXFILE parameter, something like:
imp 'system/root AS SYSDBA' file=c:\export.dmp full=n rows=n fromuser=A00 touser=A00 indexfile=c:\indexfile.sql
This will give you a text file with the DDL for the tables and indexes, but with the table creation commands commented out with rem. You can view that file in notepad or some other text editor, and search for all the TABLESPACE references. You just need all the distinct values. In your case it may be that all the A00-owned objects are in the A00 tablespace, but you'll need to check.
Once you have that information the you can manually create the tablespace(s) you've identified in your new database with the same name(s). You will also need to create the user you're importing to, and make sure it can create objects; in your original import log you have quota unlimited set for A00 on tablespace A00, for example, but also look at the grant commands it was attempting.
Once they are built you can run the import again as:
imp 'system/root AS SYSDBA' file=c:\export.dmp full=n rows=y fromuser=A00 touser=A00 log=import.log
The tables, indexes etc. should then build OK, and the data will be imported into them.
You should read up on the import command and parameters to understand what these examples will do, and to decide if any others are needed to modify how the import behaves, based on what your end goal is.
