ORA-65180

duplicate file name encountered - string

Cause

An attempt was made to issue a CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE statement with a duplicate source or target file name for the source file name mentioned in the message. This could be caused by incorrect SOURCE_FILE_NAME_CONVERT or FILE_NAME_CONVERT clause.


Action

Use an appropriate SOURCE_FILE_NAME_CONVERT or FILE_NAME_CONVERT clause to ensure that there are no duplicate source or target file names and then reissue the statement.
