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:

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-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. -

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 :-

user640001Hi,
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

IMP 00037 : Unknown character set marker.
I have used Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1) in my machine. Existing O/S in my machine is Win XP with service pack 2. I have created clubtown database user in machine.
Grant connect, resource, dba to clubtown user. Now i import data i.e. clubtown.dmp file which i have received from my client. i placed clubtown.dmp file in C:\. Then I invoke command prompt.(C:\) I put the command below..
imp system/<system-password> file=clubtown.dmp fromuser=clubtown touser=clubtown buffer=80000
log=club.log Unfortunately import done unsuccessfully.
giving message :
IMP 00037 : Unknown character set marker.
Note : When i installed Oracle in my Machine
i chose default character set.How did you get that file? Was ftp involved? Did you ftp the file in binary mode?
The file needs to be ftp-ed in binary mode, or you will get this or other similar errors.

Problem with character set - Reports 11.1.1.4
Hi!
I have a problem with Oracle Reports 11g regarding character set configuration. The default character set WE8ISO8859P1 works, so PDF reports have a regular display except for Eastern European (EE) letters which are replaced by "¿" sign.
So, when I set any other character set in reports.sh, which would be a normal step to get EE letters, I'm always getting Greek Alphabet in PDF reports. Why Greek Alphabet?
The character sets I tried to use are: EE8ISO8859P2, UTF8 and AL32UTF8.
I changed uifont.ali and included PDF Subset with all four Arial font variants and, of course, I placed all fonts in fonts folder which is pointed by REPORTS_FONT_DIRECTORY.
In Reports Builder everything works fine, but when I have to deploy the report to the Reports Services, the problem occurs.
Also, when I've tried to execute PDF report using In-Process Reports Server (rep_wls_reports_hostnameasinst1) instead of AS Instance Reports Server (RptSvr_hostnameasinst1, which is a regular server), I'm getting Greek Alphabet in PDF reports even if the default character set is WE8ISO8859P1 in reports.sh. What is wrong with it? Where is Greek Alphabet configured?
The production environment is 64-bit Oracle Linux 5.6 with Weblogic 10.3.4 and Forms&Reports 11.1.1.4. Forms works fine with character set EE8ISO8859P2 defined in default.env file.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
DejanThank you, Denis!
Doc 300416.1 was very useful but Note 356221.1 - A Practical Methodology on Porting Reports from Windows to Unix with Different Font is actually crucial for configuring Reports on Linux.
Also, there is a bug in 11.1.1.3 and 11.1.1.4, which can be fixed using the patch ( Note 1138405.1 - PDF Reports With Font Subsetting Raises Error "Bad /Bbox" on 64-Bit Linux ).
Kind regards! -
Problem with character set UTF-16 LE
Hello.
There were difficulties with character set change, using function convert ()

IMP-00016: required character set conversion (type 1 to 871) not supported
I am running Oracle DB: 8.1.7.4
Hit a problem when I export from Source DB: US7ASCII

Is there any workaround if this is the only export dump available?

It seems good
but if we input

it shows

Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 9.0Yes, Apex is almost entirely independent of the file system. There is no 'Apache' and the 'file system' is really the database exposed as a WebDAV environment.
If I understand the question correctly, what you want to do is export from the original database and import to this one. That may be done using the 'exp' and 'imp' commands at command line.
Details of advanced use of exp and imp are available in the Utilities manual found in the 10g Release 2 docco at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1 (under the 'Books' tab). -

Import (imp) failing with IMP-00010 error
Hi Experts,
I am doing import to Windows from an export dump that was taken on Solaris 10. But the import is failing with the following error.
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
I checked the source and target oracle versions and NLS_LANG parameter.
In both the databases NLS_LANG parameter is set to AMERICAN only. But the oracle versions are different
Source
OS : Solaris 10
Oracle version : *11.2.0.2*
Export dump : exp_CAAU2.dmp.gz (Export taken by zipping)
Target
OS : Windows server 2003
Oracle Version : *10.2.0.2.0*
While importing into windows env, it is failing..
Please let me know the reason why the import is failing?
Can i upgrade the target oracle version to 11.2.0.2 to succeed the import?Hi,
The IMP indicates this this error is coming from the old imp. This dump file could be from the expdp utility, which would require you to use the impdp utility.
Source
OS : Solaris 10
Oracle version : 11.2.0.2
Export dump : exp_CAAU2.dmp.gz (Export taken by zipping)
Target
OS : Windows server 2003
Oracle Version : 10.2.0.2.0
While importing into windows env, it is failing..
What really matters here is the compatibility level. If your source and target compatibility levels are the same, then with Data Pump, the dumpfile created on the source, would work on the target. If the compatibility levels are different, then use expdp with the version parameter set to the compatibility level of the target.
Please let me know the reason why the import is failing?Check the suggestions above first.
Can i upgrade the target oracle version to 11.2.0.2 to succeed the import?It could help, but first check to see if you are using the right utility and then check the compatibility versions.

How to exp/imp both diff character set tables between in DB1 and DB2?
In the Solaris 2.7 ,the oracle 8i DB1 has NLS_CHARACTERSET
ZHS16CGB231280 and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET ZHS16CGB231280
character set.
In other linux7.2 system ,the oracle 8i DB2 is install into the
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET US7ASCII and NLS_CHARACTERSET US7ASCII
character set.
The tables contents of DB1 have some chinese. I want to exp/imp
tables of DB1 into DB2 . But the chinese can't correct display
in the SQLWheet tools. How do the Exp/Imp operation ? ples help
me . thanks .The supported way to store GB231280-encoded characters is using a ZHS16CGB231280 database or a database created using a superset of GB231280 ,such as UTF8 .Can you not upgrade your target database from US7ASCII to ZHS16CGB231280 ?
With US7ASCII and NLS_LANG set to US7ASCII , you are using the garbage in garbage out (GIGO) approach. This may seem to work but there are many hidden problems :-
1. Invalid SQL String Function behaviours - LENGTH ( ) , SUBSTR ( ) , INSTR ( )
2. Data can be corrupted when data is loaded into another database. e.g. EXP / IMP , Dblinks
3. Communication with other clients will generate incorrect results. e.g. other Oracle products - Oracle Text, Forms. , Java , HTML etc.
4. Linguistic sorts not available
5. Query using the standard WHERE clause may return incorrect results ..
6. Extra coding overhead in handling character conversions manually.
I recommend you to check out the FAQ and the DB Character set migration guide on the Globalization Support forum on OTN.

Problem with Character Set after upgrade
Hello,
I have a probelm and was wondering if anyone has seen this before.
I have been running Java 1.4.2_13 for a while now on some Windows servers. About a month ago we upgraded to Java 1.6.0_12.
We are reading input files that are in the character set Big5 HKSCS. After the upgrade our application started to report certain characters as invalid. Some of the characters are 0xD843, 0xD844.
These should be valid characters and were in the previous version of Java (1.4.2_13).
Has anyone seen this?
Thanks in advance,
JerryThe [Supported Encodings|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/intl/encoding.doc.html] page for the Java 6 release describes that charset as
Big5 with Hong Kong extensions, Traditional Chinese (incorporating 2001 revision)You would know more than I do about that 2001 revision (or at least, not less than I do, since I know nothing about it). Perhaps that's the source of your problem?
Edit: especially since the [Supported Encodings|http://www.j2ee.me/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html] page for Java 1.4 doesn't mention the 2001 revision. -
Can a db with character set UTF8 be restored to AL32UTF8?
Hello Everyone,
Good Day.
Our present production and non-production databases are configured with NLS_CHARACTERSET as UTF8. However, as we are in the process of migrating to a new server, we intend to configure the new databases with NLS_CHARACTERSET as AL32UTF8 (which is the recommended option as per our research. Moreover, came to know that for Weblogic schemas and repositories to work, NLS_CHARACTERSET must be AL32UTF8).
As we would be restoring from a backup to the new instance created on the new server, kindly help us understand if any issues might arise while restoring due to both being different charactersets?
Warm Regards,
Vikram.Hi Robin,
Thank you for the update. Our DB is too huge and contains many schemas to try for a data pump. Hence we had planned for a restoration which might be simpler task with lesser downtime.
Perhaps, one option would be to create the instances with UTF character set itself and then change it once the migration activity has been completed.
Also, could you please throw some light on the two character sets as to which one is better and why?
Warm Regards,
Vikram. -
Transferring Data between Databases with Character Sets UTF08 and US7ASCII
Hi,
I am trying to transfer data from Oracle 10g (character set :UTF08) to Oracle 8i ( character set: US7ASCII). I have tried the transfer using the DBLinks and found that there is no way the data could be transferred from 10g to Oracle 8i.
The last option available is to use staging database for transfer. The staging database would be Oracle 10g only but the character set would be US7ASCII. I am expecting that since the character set is US7ASCII, this would be able to get compatible with Oracle 8i (US7ASCII). Secondly, Transfer from 10g to staging 10g should also work, since staging 10g would support UTF08 character set.
Kindly tell me if this option would work or if there is any other way around.
Thanks
