RE: Roles

It looks like you did not perform a full import from the full export dump file.. else roles would have been created. Now, you can genereate the script to create roles while connected to the source database:
select 'create role '|| role || ';' from dba_roles; Modify it to include passwords, if you have passwords with roles.

Or run the 'strings' command on the exported dump file: strings <DumpFileName> | grep 'CREATE ROLE' | sed 's/$/;/' > role.sql Edit role.sql if needed. Run it against the target database.

HTH, Regards
