Import Character set differs

I am running my Oracle8.1.5 Server on windows NT4.0
Dump is taken from Oracle8.1.7 on Unix.
While importing the dump to my database (oracle8.1.5) I am getting the following message.
import done in WE8ISO8859P1 character set and WE8ISO8859P1 NCHAR character set
IMP-00069: Could not convert to environment national character set's handle
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
I tried to change the Character set by following command.
Set nls_lang=American_America.US7ASCII
But Still I couldn't able to import the dump file
TIA

Import시 character set 문제, OORA-01435, IMP-00008 에러에 의해 중단되었습니다. 조언을 부탁합니다.

안녕하세요,
아래와 같이 import를 하려고 하는데 에러가 나면서 중단되었습니다.

에러메시지는 아래와 같습니다.
참고로, export 했던 어떤 database에는 usr_lms2 계정이 있었고,
import하려는 이 database에는 그 계정이 없어서 usr_lms2 계정을 생성하고 import를 실행했습니다.
질문1: 아래의 character set과 관련된 메시지는 정상적인것인지 궁금합니다.
질문2: ORA-01435: user does not exist라는 에러는 왜 발생할까요?
질문3: IMP-00008: unrecognized statement in the export file 에러는 dump 화일 자체에 문제가 있다는 말인가요?

Importing from a different character set

Oracle 8.1.7 / Windows NT
I'm trying to import a dump file which was created with character set WE8ISO8859P9. My database uses character set UTF8. Some of the records can't be inserted because of error "ORA-1401: Value too large for column". Is this because of the different character sets? If I switch my session to WE8ISO8859P9, imp says "character set conversion from x to y not supported."
How can I get these last records inserted? Here's an excerpt from the log:

Import dump from a satabase with a different character set

My database has this character set:
select * from database_properties:
NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8 Character set
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16 NCHAR Character set
I need to import a dump from a database with WE8MSWIN1252 character set.
After the import I have seet that some character in the table are wrog:
I see this simbol " " insted of this "à".
How can I solve the problem?
The nls_lang variable on my os is: NLS_LANG=ITALIAN_ITALY.AL32UTF8
I work with oracle 10.0.4 on linux

I have read thos doc on metalink: Note:227332.1
I also tried to set nls_lang = NLS_LANG=ITALIAN_ITALY.WE8MSWIN1252
and then I execute the import command.
BUt didn't work.

Expdp with network_link and different character sets for source and target?

DB versions 10.2 and 10.1
Is there any limitation for implementing expdp with network_link but target and source have different character sets?
I tried with many combinations, but only had success when target and source have the same character sets. In other combinations there was invalid character set conversion (loose of some characters in VARCHAR2 and CLOB fields).
I didn't find anything on the internet, forums or Oracle documentation. There was only limitation for transportable tablespace mode export (Database Utilities).
Thanks

Hi DBA-One
This link
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/dp_overview.htm#CEGFCFFI
is from Database Utilities 10g Release 2 (10.2) (I read it many times)
There is only one thing about different character sets.
I quote:
Data Pump supports character set conversion for both direct path and external tables. Most of the restrictions that exist for character set conversions in the original Import utility do not apply to Data Pump. The one case in which character set conversions are not supported under the Data Pump is when using transportable tablespaces.
Parameter VERSION also doesn't play role here, because the behaviour (character set) is the same if I use for target and source only 10.2 or (10.2 and 10.1) respectivly.

Query distributed database with different character sets.

Hello experts, this is my situation:
I have two databases A and B, the same version 11.1.0.7, the same OS Suse Linux Enterprise 10 but with different character sets, A has WE8MSWIN1252 while B has AL32UTF8. The database B is my XML DB repository so there I have some XML type tables. I need to query this tables from the database A using a dblink and in fact I have done that but the XML content is trasformed due to the different character sets between the databases. Some time there are data loss and some time there are data missmatch.
Is there any way to query the tables stored in the database B without problems? I do not know if the following is correct: Maybe I can set the character set for the session in the database A during the time it query the database B. That is, change the character set in fly at session level.
Do you have any special suggestion?
I hope you can help me, thank you in advance.

The Globalization Support Guide for 11.1.0.7 has a chapter on character set migration that should be helpful. AL32UTF8 is a superset of WE8MSWIN1252 but it is not a strict superset. That is, it doesn't meet the second prong of the test in the documentation
The new character set is a strict superset of the current character set if:
Each and every character in the current character set is available in the new character set.
Each and every character in the current character set has the same code point value in the new character set. For example, many character sets are strict supersets of US7ASCII.Exporting the data from the A, changing the character set (or creating a new database with the AL32UTF8 character set), and then importing the data may be the easiest approach in your case.

Import error character set conversion

how to resolve this
importinng into linux machine

import done in US7ASCII character set and AL16UTF16 NCHAR character set
import server uses AL32UTF8 character set (possible charset conversion)
export client uses WE8ISO8859P1 character set (possible charset conversion)
Import terminated successfully without warnings.Your import was successful. However, there are a few things you need to note from the top of the import log. It is advisable to use correct NLS settings when doing export/import to avoid data corruption/loss. That idea is to ensure you set the correct NLS setting (NLS_LANG) at the client before running exp or imp. In some cases, the setting does not matter because the different character sets can go together.
In this case, I would not worry about it.

Migrating from 8.1.7 to 9.2 with different character set

Are there going to be issues when I try to migrate from 8.1.7 to 9.2 where the character set in the 8i database was the default western european to utf8 in 9i?
I ran the 8i scan utility to see if there would be issues importing into an 8i db with a different char set and it said that there would.

Hi Jim,
As your first step, I would recommend reading the white paper Character Set Migration Best Practices for Oracle9i on the Globalization Support Home page - http://otn.oracle.com/tech/globalization/index.html
Since you mentioned that CSSCAN has already reported there are potential issues (I guess you have exceptional/Lossy data ?), I would strongly recommend splitting up the UTF8 character set change and the database version upgrade into 2 distant phrases. Probably moving to UTF8 in 8.1.7 first, then upgrading to 9.2 later.
BTW, there is a separate Globlization Support and NLS discussion forum on OTN for further discussion on character set related issues.

Character set mismatch during import

I have exported a tablespace from a database using transportable tablespace option
with CHARACTERSET UTF8. And I tried to import into another db where the CHARACTERSET is US7ASCII. Now it says that it cannot import because the charactersets are different. Is there any way to get around this problem?
Regards,
Kallur Manoj.

Manoj,
One of the limitations for transportable tablespace is that the source and target databases should use the same character set and national character set.
You may need to either export the tablespace with us7ascii, or import to a db with utf8 characterset.

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

Different Character sets (Codepages) in the same Login

Hi,
I need to enter different character sets (Russian and English) in the same login and save the different characters to SAP database tables.
The codepage for Russian is different from English codepage. I have Russian codepage language settings on both Windows and SAP. Can anybody let me know how to proceed with this.
Any pointers on this would be really helpful.
Thanks and Regards,
Sirisha

How to include different Character Sets in Flex AIR project

Hi All,
Flex, AIR(Desktop) Project.
PROBLEM Scenario:
My Application needs a path from Windows registry, So I am launching a .cmd file using Native Process API.
As a result I get a text file with the path.
So, everything works fine(reading/writing), but if the path contains different languages like Korean, Chinese then the READING OPERATION IS FAILED only when I install the application. It works fine while debugging.
(By failing I mean its not getting the characters, its printing some junk values.)
I am using readMultibyte & writeMultibyte APIs, and I am assiging the character set dynamically as per the OS language. (Which is Enslish in current scenario)
FINDING:
I installed Windows with Korean Language on a system, so now if I build the .exe on this machine then it works fine. So, i guess its not able to get the Korean Character set from the English OS, thats why it failed in earlier case.
Is there any way to include different character sets in a Flex project?
Regards,
Mayank

Some loaded SWFs may not be compatible with Flex. Try making a simpler SWF (like one that just draws a circle where you click) and see if it can be loaded and interacted with.

Different Character sets?

Oracle version: 11.1.0.7.0
There are any problems if I configure an Oracle Streams Replication between to database with different character set? I have configured a propagation between two database A and B. The A character set is WE8MSWIN1252 and the B character set is WEISO8859P1 but when the propagation passes about 30 minutes configured and ora-07445 begin. Also when I do the same configuration between two database with the same character set the problems does not appear.
Here I write the error in the alert log:
ORA-07445: se ha encontrado una excepción: volcado de memoria [kohrsmc()+1484] [SIGSEGV] [ADDR:0x18] [PC:0x7CCC92E] [Address not mapped to object] []

Where did I said that charset is interfering in propogataion? It will not interfere. Char set difference will cause the target database populated with data which it may not understand and will show you as garbage data. As you replication is working find without an issue for sometime, so it looks like you are hitting some bug when you hit replication for some specific data. To confirm this you may have to work with Oracle to find the exact cause or which bug you may be hitting.
All my suggestions till this point in time is without knowing your proper environment (Server A,B OS and database version, also the error description except english words are all foreign to me). As suggested you will be better off working with Oracle support to find the resolution. Please let us know what fixed your issue when you work with Oracle to help all forum members.

Installing Character Sets for different languages

We have a need to have the character sets installed for 14 different languages. Our BW system will receive data from other systems with different languages installed. We don't necessarily need to login with these languages but just need the character sets in order to properly read the data. Do we need to go thru the entire language installation process for each language in order to get the character sets installed? That seems like a rather lengthy process and I'm looking for other options. Also, once I get all of these character sets into my development system is it possible to transport these characters sets into my QA and Production
systems?

1. Start the FM 7.0 installation from the CD.
2. Work your way to the Setup screen and select "Custom" installation.
3. Select only the "Dictionaries" components (i.e. uncheck the other
components) and click on the "Change" button.
4. This will pop-up the available "sub-components", i.e. the
dictionaries.
5. Select the ones you want and click on the "Continue" button and
then the "Next" button to install only the new dictionaries.

Different character sets on database links

Does someone know, how to select data from different machines with different character sets via database link transferring the umlauts correctly ?
The destination instance uses we8iso8859p1, the source machines have us7ascii (SAP) or we8iso8859p1. It is NOT allowed to change the character sets on the source databases!

This is not so easy to solve. The correct procedure is to fix your non-ASCII database to reflect the correct character set encoding of your data. Have you checked with SAP to see whether it is really not possible/supported to change the application db character set ?
The only workaround that I can think of ,is to create another database with 'WE8ISO8859P1' as the db character set. Populate it with the data you need from your SAP database using either SQL*LOADER or from insert statements generated by SPOOLing out the data using SQL*PLUS
