I am going to suggest something, might be totally wrong,

Try running the import with commit=y.

This will reduce your requirement on rollback.

Might be the problem, might not, most times you will get a very descriptive error if this was it though.

I'm pretty new to Oracle, but this sounds like some sort of space issue. Could you be running out of allocated memory, tablespace, etc? Have you tried increasing the size of the import buffer, which you currently have set

at 16384?
