How to export a schema to local Oracle XE

1-exp sourceUserName/sourcePassword@SID STATISTICS=NONE
2-imp destUsername/destPassword@xe file=expdat.dmp fromuser=sourceUserName TOUSER=destUsername

Change "tnsnames.ora"

Damn. I was trying to upgrade my local 10g XE to 11g. And suddenly I found myself in this situation. I could not change tnsnames.ora file because of a silly privilege. I inspected all the possible processes that might be using this file and googled for half an hour. So the solution is just as easy as right click and add modify privilege to the current user.

OSYM sucks in Turkey

There exists a rumor about OSYM(Student Selection and Registration Center) in Turkey about the encrypted exam books. It is said that there exists a key for all answers can bu found with the right decryption algorithm. This means that until today, all the exams in Turkey are unreliable, untrusted and to make people believe that lie. Are we fooled by government?
So there should be an objective investigation about this exam for over all years. And the justice should be applied.

And a funny thing that the OSYM minister told that there is no encryption, than it is proven there is encryption. Then they told that the encrypted exam book is only for press release and never given to any of the exam participants, today we saw that the encrypted book is released before the exam has been taken. I hope they have a reasonable explanation about it.
