How to change the database character set?

Hi,
We have installed jboss turkey with MySQL and we want to prepopulate name fields like with data from the database in multilingual enviroments i.e. greek,english and russian e.t.c.Where and how can we change that?

I'm not sure, but in other environments, you have to change your JDBC settings.
So, this must be in (imho)  C:\Adobe\LiveCycle8\jboss\server\all\deploy\adobe-ds.xml
          IDP_DS
          jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/adobe
          com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
          adobe
          INSTALLER
          1
          100
          20000
          10
          50
          TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED
I would change the
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/adobe
to
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/adobe?charSET=YOURCHARSETHERE
That's the way I do it in other jdbc connections, so I think this will work here too ...

  • How to change the database character set on physical standby database?

    Hi,
    We have a database with character set WE8ISO8859P1 and migrated the character set to WE8MSWIN1252 using csscan/csalter scripts. This database has a physical standby database setup also and after the migration, the physical standby database is still showing the character set as WE8ISO8859P1. How can I change the characterset on the physical standby? I raised a Service Request with Oracle, and they said that recreating the standby database is the only supported way of changing the char set on the standby database. Is this true?
    Thanks,
    Sreekanth

    Thank you, Robert, for your reply.
    The standby is in sync with the primary.
    see below
    SYS@sisprod>select * from v$dataguard_stats;

    I don't know how to restore the controlfile from primary. Could you please tell me how to do it?

  • How to change the maximum character setting for password in firefox

    i have a long password about 18 character to open an application from my desktop , but I cannot type in the 18 character password on my laptop using firefox browser. Is urgent can please help?

    You can try to increase the maxlength by running this code in the Scratchpad (Web Developer > Scratchpad;Shift+F4) or the command line of the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console;Shift+Ctrl+K), but the server may not accept it.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools/Scratchpad
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools/Web_Console
    <pre><nowiki>N=document.querySelectorAll('input[maxlength]'),I;
    for(i=0;I=N[i];i++){
    if(I.getAttribute('maxlength')=='12'){
    I.setAttribute('maxlength','20');

  • Setting the database character set problem!

    I'm sorry if this is beaten to death, I've read the FAQ and many questions in this forum and I didn't find it.
    I want to change the database character set from the beginning. Where do I place the NLS_CHARACTERSET=EL8ISO8859P7 ?
    I know I can alter the existing database character but EL8ISO8859P7 is not a superset of WE8ISO8859P1 and I don't want to go to Unicode yet...
    Do I have to create a brand new database or can I just alter a script and restart it ?
    I didn't find any nls_setting in the database creations, uh, wizard.
    Please be as specific as possible because as you can understand I'm not what you can call a db expert...
    Thank you.

    which version of Oracle? these things change between versions.
    v7 - update sys.props$ (unsupported!)
    v8.0 - rebuild database
    v8.1 - alter database change characterset
    remember, backup and test before you do this on a used/production database!
    good luck, Nogah.

    Hello Dharani
    All required function modules can be found in function group SLVC (assuming that you are using OO-based ALV or, at least, fm REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY_LVC):
    LVC_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET (Read default display variant (description only, w/o field catalog))
    LVC_VARIANT_EXISTENCE_CHECK
    LVC_VARIANT_F4 (Display variant selection dialog box)
    LVC_VARIANT_SELECT (Read a display variant)
    For a sample report using LVC_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET have a look at BCALV_GRID_10.

  • How to change the database in a business area

    Hello All,
    I am trying to figure out a way to change the database that a business area connects to. When I created the business area I selected to look at tables from the default database. Now I need to change that setting to connect to a different database. The tables are exactly the same on both databases. I just need to change the database that the business area looks at.
    Is there a simple way of accomplishing this? I want to avoid having to recreate the business area.
    Thank you very much in advanced for your help with this matter.
    Del Benavides.

    Hi,
    Select all your folders in Disco Administrator,ALT+ENTER to go to properties, then change the database from the default database to the remote database.

  • How to change the database in Crystal reports

    To give an overview there is one project going on where the oracle database is getting migrated from 10g to 11g.
    All the details of database like IP, port etc are changing as part of this.
    I can see the driver name configured as crdb_ado (Custom driver).
    We have an test environment for 11g against which we have to point all the reports and test it.
    Could you please let me know the below queries
    Where and how to change the IP details in the crystal reports to point to new test and prod databases.
    Overview on this crdb_ado driver
      Basically the database is getting changed and we want the reports to point and run from the new database.
    Thanks

    Hi Vissu,
    Thanks for your reply.
    We need to change the database from the reports which are already running from central management console.
    I can see a custom driver crdb_ado is being used and it connects to a database.
    Could you please let me know where the database configuration is done.
    Ideally we need to add one more database to a config file which i am not able to find.
    I guess it should be similar to tnsnames.ora file in oracle where the different databases are stored.
    From the above image I would like to know where the server details (NECTAR_Prod) would be configured.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to change the automatic character format in Message Editor?

    Hi experts,
    We use PI 7.31, AAE adapter in our scenario. When we use the message monitor in Adapter Engine, we choose one message and open it in Message editor, we can see the message payload with AUTO Character Format: Windows-1252.
    The problem is we have some CN characters and they cannot display in correct formats.
    So, is there any way to change the AUTO Character format?
    The other question is, can we see the message after mapping in java message monitor?
    Thanks.

  • How do i change the default character set?

    I'm from Brazil, and here we have special characters like "�", "�", "�", etc.
    I need the JVM to understand that from the database and print it correctly on my page (I'm using servlets).
    How do i do that?
    thanks to all.

    java works just fine with Brazilian characters....I
    should know I developed software for a brazilian
    company for the last 5 years using java.
    Ok. I believe you do. I just wanna know how. i'm using servlets. So, to print out the page, i use.
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    out.println("some_text");
    out.println(resultset.getString("some_field"));
    If "some_text" contains special characters, they are printed correctly. No problem about that.
    the problem is when the string from the database/resultset has special characters. Those aren't printed correctly. And that's what i want to fix.
    Any suggestions?

  • Can we change the DB character set at session level

    hi,
    Please help me
    when iam giving the alter session command iam getting the error:
    SQL> ALTER SESSION set NLS_CHARACTERSE
    T =WE8MSWIN1252;
    ALTER SESSION set NLS_CHARACTERSET =WE8MSWIN1252
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00922: missing or invalid
    i need to enter Arabic names in using the xml file.
    here i have two questions
    1)is it is possible to set character set at session level. because my client is not allowing to bounce the database. DB version is 10.2.0.4
    Right now my DB is in US7ascii
    2)is this "WE8MSWIN1252" set supports Arabic.
    Regards,
    Naresh

    You cannot change the characterset at the session level. If you want to store ARABIC characters in your database then you should change the characterset of your database to any other characterset that supports Arabic characters or to a Unicode characterset like UTF8 or AL32UTF8.
    If you try to insert Arabic characters with your present US7ASCII charancterset then the characters would be stored as junk.

  • HT5467 How to change the location service set up when the icon is not inactive?

    I can not setting up the location services and change individual location service for each application since the icon are all in the dead icon and I cannot change anything. Is there anyway to make those icons in active?

    Here is what I was referring to - when in Control Center, I have the database locations. (sources, targets, OWF etc). Under a database location I selected the connector/location name under Connectors. When I select Deploy Action to Drop the connector/location name will remain. However, if you were to check in the database or the Repository Browser (Locations Report) you will see that the db link is gone. At this point you can safely modify the Locations info in the Connection Explorer (in Design Center). On the other hand, if you want the location to be deleted all together then now you can delete it in the Connection Explorer panel. If you did the prior drop step then at this point all db link info should be gone from the database.

  • How to change the hostname was set/defined in SAP system?

    Dear Expert,
    My customer met a problem about that:
    he defined his host name with small characters(lower case) "abc" when he installed the SAP system (Windows2003(x64)-Solman70SR4).
    But in SM21, the title of sm21, the hostname was recognize as upper case "ABC".
    in SM51, the hostname was also recognized as upper case "ABC"
    in STMS, the tab of 'transport tool', it is recognized as lower case "abc" in TRANSDIR.
    in SM59, it is recognized as upper case "ABC" in internal connections, but recognized as lower case "abc" in ABAP connections, such as TMSADM@<DB>.DOMAIN.<sid>
    While in Java URL, it is recognized as lower case "abc". With my test, the Java URL is not case sensitive for the HOSTNAME part in HTTP link as I tested to change the hostname both in upper case and lower case in etc\hostname file, the URL both are working. (not sure if this is due to the test is with intranet or not).
    Based on SAP note 611361, it seems that:
    "Hostnames must be considered "case sensitive". That means
    hostnames shall be used in the same case (upper or lower) in all
    SAP configurations as well as in the network configuration (DNS
    or etc/hosts). You must ensure consistent name resolving of the
    hostname from hostname to IP address and back from the IP address
    to the the same hostname (case sensitive match). See also note
    129997."
    Please help to suggest.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Perry Song

    Section  4.13 "Checking the Consistency of the Host Name" in [This Upgrade Guide|https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000353422008E]  has a good explaination of what & how to check your hostname / parameter configuration.
    on a windows box, another way to get the TCP/IP name is to type  'hostname' from a CMD window.

  • Changing database character set from US7ASCII to AL32UTF8

    Our database is running on Oracle database 10.1.0.4.0 (AIX) The following are its parameters:
    SQL> select value from NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS where parameter='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
    VALUE
    US7ASCII
    We would like to change the database character set to AL32UTF8. After following Metalink notes: 260192.1 (which helped us resolve "Lossy" and "Truncated" data, the final output of the CSSCAN utility is:
    [Scan Summary]
    All character type data in the data dictionary are convertible to the new character set
    All character type application data are convertible to the new character set
    [Data Dictionary Conversion Summary]
    The data dictionary can be safely migrated using the CSALTER script
    We have no (0) Truncation and Lossy entries on the .txt file. We only have Changeless and Convertible. Now accdg to the documentation, we can do a FULL EXP and FULL IMP. But it did not detail how to do the conversion on the same database. The discussion on the document tells how to do it from one database to another database. But how about on the same database?
    We cannot use CSALTER as stated on the document.
    (Step 6
    Step 12
    12.c) When using Csalter/Alter database to go to AL32UTF8 and there was NO "Truncation" data, only "Convertible" and "Changeless" in the csscan done in point 4:)
    After performing a FULL export of the database, how can we change its character set? What do we need to do the the existing database to change its character set to AL32UTF8 before we import back our dump file into the same database?
    Please help.

    There you are! Thanks! Seems like I am right in my understanding about the Oracle Official Documentation. Thanks!
    Hmmmmm...when you say:
    *"you can do selective export of only convertible tables, truncate the tables, use CSALTER, and re-import."*
    This means that:
    1. After running csscan on database PROD, i will take note of the convertible tables in the .txt output file.
    2. Perform selective EXPORT on PROD (EXP the convertible tables)
    3. Truncate the convertible tables on PROD database
    4. Use CSALTER on PROD database
    5. Re-import the tables into PROD database
    6. Housekeeping.
    Will you tell me if these steps are the correct one? Based on our scenario: This is what i have understood referring to the Official Doc.
    Am i correct?
    I really appreciate your help Sergiusz.

  • Changing database character set

    Can anyone help with the way to change the database character set.
    I am runn into problem while exporting with error message exp-00091
    Thanks

    You don't need to change the database character set. You have only to set the correct character set at
    OS level before doing the export. Execute the following at Sql prompt as DBA :
    SQL> select * from v$nls_parameters
      2* where parameter in ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_TERRITORY', 'NLS_CHARACTERSET')
    SQL> /
    PARAMETER            VALUE
    NLS_LANGUAGE         AMERICAN
    NLS_TERRITORY        AMERICA
    NLS_CHARACTERSET     WE8ISO8859P15
    SQL>then at OS prompt :
    $ export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P15
    $ exp ..............
    Of course you have to use your values.
