Oracle Error IMP-00071: Object identifier of imported table mismatches object identifier of existing table

Oracle Error Message

IMP-00071: Object identifier of imported table mismatches object identifier of existing table

Reason for the Error

An attempt was made to import data into a table that was recreated under a different object identifier than the object identifier used for the exported object table. Under this situation, REF’s to this table that are contained within the dump file will also be invalid.

Solution

Drop the offending object table prior to import.
