Copying a DB from NT to Linux occurs a ORA-01516

Hi,

we want to copy a oracle 8.1.6 win nt database to a oracle 8.1.7 on suse linux 7.2

we copied all files on the linux server and mounted the database successfully with "startup mount" in the server manager.

now we want to rename the datafiles with
--> alter database rename file 'N:\DATABASE_DEV\SYS1DEV.ORA' to
'/usr/local/database_dev/SYS1DEV.ORA'
but the server manager occours the error

ORA-01511: error in renaming log/datafile ORA-01516: Non existent log/datafile 'N:\DATABASE_DEV\SYS1DEV.ORA'

what's the reason for this ? the filename is written correctly. (rename succeed under nt with the same syntax)
