EXP-00056: ORACLE error 6550 encountered
ORA-06550: line 1, column 41:
PLS-00302: component 'SET_NO_OUTLINES' must be declared

PL/SQL: Statement ignored
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully

You would get this error when you are trying to export your database with exp binary that is not compatible with your database
The cause of this error is, as the above message had already mentioned, that you are tring to export your database from client with oracle version higher
than the server version ie. using oracle 10g to export from oracle database 9i.



The solution are
- first option: you need exp program with the same version (or lower one) as your database, which mean
you need to find the client machine that have the same oracle version or lower installed
or
you may need to reinstall your oracle client.

- second option: if you have an access to your server, physically or remotely, simply just logon and use the exp command from the command line.
