RE: alter system set user_dump_dest='/newdir' not working

Boy do I feel like a big dummy! :-)  

I remember thinking of that when I first encountered the problem, but I got side tracked and forgot to verify the permissions on the directory. Just checked and sure enough that was the problem.  

Solution: sudo chown oracle:dba /newdir  

Thanks Luis!

Hi, Allen.  

Just thought it is a access privilege on directory at OS level. Have you checked if the user who owns the Oracle bins has privilege to write on the /newdir directory?  

Best regards,
Luis
