Euro symbol not displayed/stored correctly when Application Server on AIX

Hi,
Up till now we have an BC4J/ServiceFile/UIX application (generated with JHeadstart)running on Windows OS (Application Server and Database).
The customer has decided to move the Application Server (10g) to an AIX machine.
When testing the application we find:
1) Euro symbol (€) is displayed en stored correctly when stored in varchar2 db-columns
2) The Euro symbol is not stored correctly when stored within a CLOB db-column AND when the AS runs on an AIX.
When the Application Server runs on a Windows-platform the euro symbol is displayed and stored correctly.
Our first guess was some NLS_LANG configuration problems on the AIX-machine. We tried however to set the NLS-LANG to "DUTCH_THE NETHERLANDS.WE8MSWIN1252". This had no visible effect.
Are there other (if any) NLS-settings which influence the way the CLOB-columns are dealt with?
When connecting to the same database from a Windows-Application Server no problems occur, thus showing that the problem is AS/OS specific.....
Our guess is that is related to BC4J and how BC4J communicates with the database.
Is this problem a known bug/issue?
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
We are using JDeveloper 9.0.3.1 (build 1107), Business Components Version is 9.0.3.10.62
Thanks,
Anthonie

Sorry, I'm having difficulty understanding what's happening here. Let me see if I get it.
You have an application that stores the euro symbol in a CLOB. When the server that handles this application is on AIX, the euro is not properly displayed in the client. When the server is on Windows, it displays properly.
Is that the issue? If so, it could be a number of things, but it's probably related to the character set differences between the two database servers.
Have you been able to reproduce this without using Business Components?

  • Help - french accents words not displaying/storing correctly in database

    Hello -
    I have 2 databases running in 2 different character sets.
    I am able to insert the following french accents in both databases and stored correctly also in db and displayed correctly in sql plus -
    à À Ä ä Â â é É È è Ë ë Ê ê î Î ï Ï ç Ç Û û ô æ ö « »
    But the following 2 charactes donot get displayed/stored correctly in any of the databases -
    1. For db running in UTF8 character set it stores/displays as follows -
    2. For db running in WE8ISO8859P1 character set it displays as 2 filled black squares. But when I do 'copy and paste'. It is pasteing correctly in the editor as follows -
    I have another one database running in same WE8ISO8859P1 character set , DBA out there sent me the results from sql plus for the above 2 characters and they are getting displayed as well as stored fine.
    I have the following questions -
    1. Besides database characterset what else parameters or environment variables I need to check the for these characters to be displayed/stored correctly ?
    2. Why would Databases with same characterset gives different results for the same characters ?
    3. UTF8 is superset of WE8ISO8859P1 characterset, then why in that UTF8 db is unable to store that characters
    which were able to be stored in WE8ISO8859P1 db.
    By these various results, I am very confused and not able to troubleshoot further.
    Any help would be very much appreciated...
    Thanks
    Rama

    The client character set specified in the environment variable NLS_LANG controls the character set conversion between the database client and the database

  • Firefox math symbols not displaying correctly

    Firefox math symbols not displaying correctly and special characters not display correctly
    Example: triangle symbol display "D" , but other browser is displaying fine.
    Please give me a solution.
    Thanks & Regards
    Ajay Kumar

    This page uses the Symbol font to display the triangles.
    <pre><nowiki>font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Symbol;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black</nowiki></pre>
    It works for me on Linux, but probably not on Windows.<br />
    Websites shouldn't be using this Symbol font, but use the Unicode replacements instead: Δ (&amp;#916; &amp;Delta;).

  • Menu toolbar icons not displayed in colour when deployed on the Web

    Hello!
    We are developing an application using Forms6i on Windows NT.
    Our problem is that menu toolbar icons are not displayed in colour when the application is deployed on the Web using lookAndFeel = generic. This is the case both when using Microsoft IE5 and Netscape 4.5. When lookAndFeel = oracle, however, the icons are displayed in colour.
    The icons are stored as *.gif files in the same directory as the application *.html file. It does not help to create a virtual path /web_icons/ in the www listener and edit the parameter default.icons.iconpath in the file Registry.dat.
    When running the application as client/server, the menu toolbar icons are displayed in colour as expected.
    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Hi,
    I got the same problem and I didn't figure out, how to solve this problem.
    But did you try to printout the form anyway? I guess you will see the icons on the printout, won't you?

  • How do I get Special character Euro symbol € to display ?

    Hi,
    How do I get the euro symbol € to display in Flash from
    PHP file created in DW ?. It does not display it properly. I have
    simplified the PHP code I have is:
    <?php
    $msgtoflash = "This is the Euro Symbol &#8364";
    print ("&Databaseinfo=$msgtoflash");
    ?>
    The &#8364 is a special character code for HTML.
    If I use the $ or £ symbols it works perfectly but not
    € ?
    Thanks,

    The way to get the euro symbol to display in Flash is to use
    XML. I have
    tested this, and it works:
    euro.php
    <?php
    header('Content-type: text/xml');
    echo '<root>
    <elem>This is the euro symbol:
    &#8364;</elem>
    </root>';
    ?>
    ActionScript 2.0 to display the value of <elem> in a
    dynamic text field
    called myText:
    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
    myXML.onLoad = handleLoad;
    myXML.load('
    http://localhost/test/euro.php');
    function handleLoad(success) {
    if (success) {
    var theRoot:XMLNode = this.firstChild;
    myText.text = theRoot.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
    } else {
    myText.text = 'Not working :(';
    Handling XML in ActionScript 2.0 is like poking needles in
    your eyes,
    but it's the only way I have been able to get the euro symbol
    from an
    external source into a Flash movie.

  • Why is Mavericks Calendar not displaying numbers correctly?

  • Why is Preview not displaying fonts correctly?

    Since the last Snow Leopard upgrade, Preview is not displaying some fonts correctly. I checked to see if the fonts were embedded in the PDF (by resorting to Adobe Acrobat 5... which is not displaying them correctly either) and they are True Type with Windows encoding which as far as I know Preview OS X should be able to handle.
    I tried deleting the Preview preferences in User/Library/Prefeerences and restarting but this made no difference. The same PDF works perfectly though on an old iMac that is running OS X Tiger!!!

    Well I found a few minor font problems which seem to have cropped up since the last system upgrade, but none of those were the font in question. Also, as I understand it, the whole point of PDF documents is that the fonts are embedded in the document so you do not have to have the fonts installed on your computer to view the PDF properly. I use a lot of special fonts and when I save documents as a PDF I can send them to anyone on the internet and they can usually see everything as it is meant to be.

  • Math symbols not displaying in browser

    I'm attempting to study for CLEP exams on Instacert's website and have encountered a problem with the math symbols not displaying correctly.  I did the recommendations by the webmaster and tried Google Chrome, then Safari instead of Mozilla's Firefox, and I have downloaded the webmaster's suggested window's font (symbol.ttf), to no avail.  He's not familiar with Apple at all, so he's no further help.
    I have attached a screenshot of one of the pages not displaying the symbols correctly.  As you can see, the math union and intersection symbols look foreign and some of the other math symbols are not correct in other web pages:

    Everybody, report preview problems to apple at:

    My biggest problem in preview 4.0 is it freezes while trying to view large images across four apple LCD's. Sometimes I see a gray screen.

  • Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on my blog, but other browsers are.

    I have a web designer issue. Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on the header in my blog. Explorer, Chrome, and Safari have no problems. The page is in css but this particular section has html code o designate color. The code is as follows:
    <font face="helvetica" color="FF9966" size="1">blog</font>
    Though all other browsers display the light orange color designated, Firefox displays white. Strangely, if if retype the code by spelling out a color, Firefox displays it correctly. i.e.
    <font face="helvetica" color="black" size="1">blog</font>
    ... will give me black. You can see the effect by viewing the link below and looking at the word "blog" in the header, which should be light orange but is not in Firefox.

    Actually it also seems to work in the current Firefox 4 beta as it is.
    The code is not right though - the correct syntax for the color attribute with hex values is with a # at the start, so:
    color="#FF9966"
    It might work in Firefox 3.x if you change that.

  • I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

    I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

    That happened to me for a short period of time after I updated. It didn't do it with all apps, but it did it with a few here and there. Try a few basic standard troubleshooting steps. Close all apps and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    You can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
    Hopefully it will be something simple, but don't rule out restoring the iOS software, if nothing else works, but start with this easy stuff first.

  • 0vendor is not displaying name attribute when I maintained master data.

    0vendor is not displaying name attribute when I maintained master data.
    Details: I have four records in the 0vendor infoobject (sand box). I have to show these four records to the client. As i have free hands I maintained master data in the name field and finally activated master data. But when I add the name attribute to the vendor charecteristic in the query designer; it is displaying name attribute as # . Any idea how to display the names of the four vendors in the zquery.
    Also do you know the transaction to copy standard query to Zquery?
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Les
    For 0VENDOR, Set Property as Key & Text, try once again.
    Yes, you can copy the standard query very well.
    Open the Standard query & using SAVE AS, you can copy to "Z" queries.
    Hope, now you will get some idea

  • Server Admin not displaying groups correctly

    Server 10.5.8, Mac Pro 4 core 2.66, 56 GB RAM.
    Had a crash yesterday, all back to normal now except:
    Server Admin's "show users and groups" is not displaying groups correctly" "users" is missng, and any new groups I created in WM are missing. Even if I sort by GID, they don't show up. And yet, if I type "staff" in the search bar, it shows up with GID 20. Also shared folders are showing up as groups

    Surely someone can at least point me in the right direction? I tried rebuilding the LDAP database, but that didn't fix it.
