Character set marker unknown error while importing data in 10g from 8i

Hi All,
I am trying to import the whole database schema wise (one by one) through oracle 10g database control page (which is browser based)
But when i try to import the objects of a schema i get the error that
"IMP-00037 : Character set marker unknown "
Import terminated unsuccessfully
Would anybody please tell me about the mentioned error ???
Kindly provide the solution.
Mentioned below are the character sets available in both the version.
Character sets in oracle 8.1.7 :-
Database Character Set :: WE8ISO8859P1
National Character Set :: WE8ISO8859P1

Database Character Set :: WE8ISO8859P1
National Character Set :: AL16UTF16

Hi,
As you have asked, i have mentioned the export command below to get the full database export file.
And I have copied this export file (dump) to another machine(Server) where i have to import that file to upgrade the database to 10g Rel 2.
SET CC=%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%-%DATE:~10,4%
exp username/password@db_name
file=D:\PAY_BKP\EXP_FULL_PAY_%CC%.DMP log=D:\PAY_BKP\EXP_FULL_PAY.log
indexes=yes
full=yes
Kindly provide guidance.
Regards

  • IMP-00037: Character set marker unknown ?

    Hi,
    I try to import some .dat files in oracle 10g database.
    These files have been generated by OMWB from a Sybase 12.5 database. The following error occures :
    $ imp FILE=Dat/COUNTER.dat
    Import: Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production on Fri Jun 18 14:38:25 2004
    Copyright (c) 1982, 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.

    IMP-00037: Character set marker unknown
    IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
    I suppose there is an argument for the 'imp' command but I tried to read 'imp -help' and I didn't find it.
    Could you explain me this error?
    Thanks,
    Grégory.

    I Cannot say that because I have no access to the machine.
    Could you tell me why this information is important? Does the generated .dat files depend on this vairiable?
    For information, OMWB doesn't generate the files. It generates UNIX commands in a file that you execute manually (offline). In Sybase the command to export values is 'bcp', maybe this command hasn't the good parameters.
    For example I post you a line that generates the file from Sybase :
    bcp <DB_NAME>.dbo.counter out COUNTER.dat -c -t "<ec>" -r "<er>" -Usa -P -S<SERVER NAME>
    What I can note in this command is that it seems to set '<er>' as the rows delimiter and '<ec>' as the cols delimiter. It is a possibility that Oracle does not support this format.

  • Imp fails with character set marker unknown

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to import a dump that was done in WE8ISO8859P1 with Oracle 9i 9.2.0.5.0 into the Western European XE version on Windows XP Professional SP2.
    I get an IMP-00037 Character set marker unknown error
    I've tried setting NLS_LANG to American_UNITED KINGDOM.WE8ISO8859P1 but the same result. Obviously I'm just a novice but you've to start somewhere right, any help appreciated

    Setting NLS_LANG to either character set should be fine. WE8MSWIN1252 is a superset of WE8ISO8859P1 ( http://aswan.gatech.edu/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10749/applocal.htm#636814 ) .
    From the docs:
    There are two character set conversions when you Import a dump file. The first one is performed by Import executable from the character set of the dump file (which is equal to NLS_LANG of Export session) to the character set of NLS_LANG of the Import session. The second conversion from the Import NLS_LANG to the database character set is performed by SQL*Net.
    Here is more information in the docs:

  • Error while importing data in SSAS Tabular Model

    I am new to the concept Tabular Model in SSAS 2014.
    I am trying to create one tabular model based on Adventureworks DW 2014.
    I am getting below error while importing tables to create model.
    "OLE DB or ODBC error: Login failed for user 'ASIAPAC\CSCINDAE732028$'.; 28000.

    The current operation was cancelled because another operation in the transaction failed."
    But while creating the Datasource, it has created successfully (below img)
    But while importing the facing the below error.
    Note:
    I have multiple instances in my system with unique names.
    Is this causing any ambiguity issues in selecting right instances?

    Hi Naveen，
    Based on your screenshots, you fail to open a connection to the data source. Right?
    In this scenario, the first screenshot you post is for creating a connection to server with the current windows authentication, not for connecting a data source. So the "Test Connection succeed" means your current windows user can connect
    to server, not connect to the database your selected in the dropdown list. Then you click next, you can choose account to access the data source. Based on the information, your service account "'ASIAPAC\CSCINDAE732028$" doesn't have permission to
    access the database you selected. Please grant the permission for the service account in SSMS.
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Simon Hou

    It seems you are performing import via network_link  option.
    Ensure that the database link STAG_RISKCORE is valid and works. Also, check the TNS service associated to connect to remote database.

  • Getting an error while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer

    Hi,
       I am facing a issue while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer to the Server.The error is mentioned below.
       'File Repository Server Input is down'
       Once I click the OK button on this error message, it displays  the message
       'Could not import the Universe'.
      I tried the check the status of the File Repository Server (Ouput and Input) and also the of the Root Directory on the  Physical Server and also my machine.They all have read-write access.
    Installed Version of the Universe Designer Client: Business Object XI Release 2 SP3
    Installed Version of the BO Enterprise Server: Business Object XI Release 2 SP2
      Can you please help me to resolve the issue

    Hi,
       The step you have mentioned may not be applicable to my issue as one of my colleagues can import/export the universe from the same server
    The second thing is that a DB2 Client v9 is installed on both mine and my colleagues system.The Designer software can recognise the DB2 drivers on his system but it cannot recognise the same drivers on my system.I even checked the versions of the BO software installed on his and my system and they are same.
    The only difference is that his machine is a Windows XP Machine and mine is a Network Desktop.
    Will any of the above two things will affect the operation of the BO Designer.
    Thanks

  • Error while importing data from 8i to 9i

    Hello !
    I have installed 9i and now want to import data from previous database 8i which contains GB's of data.
    I have exported through transporatble tablespaces but while importing to 9i i receive the following error of national character set .
    Import done in WE8MSWIN1252 character set and WE8ISO8859P1 NCHAR character set

    Regards

    If you're moving data from 10G to 9i, using EXP/IMP, I would try using the 9i EXP to create the dumpfile with data from the 10G database, and then using the 9i IMP to import that dumpfile into the 9i database.
    Sounds like you have been using the 10G EXP and IMP in both cases.

    Hi ,
    This is probably due to shutdown of the system not correctly.
    you will have to re-create control file.

  • Error while importing data from excel to forms

    Hi,
    I am working on Oracle forms 10g, and I'm supposed to import data from excel sheet to forms.
    While the user enters the data,sometimes after entering a particular word he/she hits the alt+enter button.
    As a result the data appears in two lines in a single row
    So,when I try to import the data it's not importing the data in a right manner.
    S0,I want to replace this linefeed and carry with five spaces.
    Eg:The user instead of entering Geekpedia enters Geek
    pedia
    in the excel sheet.
    Now when I import this in the forms I want it to be imported as Geek Pedia.(5 spaces between Geek and pedia).

    Maybe you can consider save excel as .csv files and then you can load them as flatfiles to external table in OWB.

Maybe you are looking for
