I am attempting to convert from Oracle to a shapefile and getting the following error consistently.

look like it is failing on the .dbf file. Any suggestions?

It turned out that I had an attribute column type set to number when it should have been set to char.

Does is work if you write the shape file to any other disk?

Check for available disk space on E:

If E: is a non-local disk, check for sufficient rights.

No I found nothing else in the log. I am going to try devid_r's suggestion and try writing it to another disk.

There really should be a better error message for this
