Informix 2 Oracle... charset problem?

Hi,
i'm tring to migrate data from informix 9 to oracle 9.2 but while migrating 2 tables i 've got this errors:
ORA-01401: inserted value too large for column
and
ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column
The same procedure works ok if i migrate data to another oracle db server... the differences between this 2 oracle are:
WORKS:
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION= 10.2.0.1.0
NLS_CHARACTERSET= WE8MSWIN1252
NOT WORKS
NLS_CHARACTERSET=UTF8
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION=9.2.0.5.0
Any suggestions? is only a problem of characterset??

I reckon thats exactly what it is, a problem of charset and the storage requirements of the data therein. do you know which table in the repository is having this problem inserting data?

Can't persist accents; related to oracle charset

I'm facing a problem related to the charset of a database.
When I insert a value in a table that has accents, the database persists the information, but without accents, and for some cases it persist a '?' instead some characters, like 'ã'.
Following a single test:
CREATE TABLE ACCENT_TEST (
     TEST VARCHAR(10)
INSERT INTO ACCENT_TEST (TEST) VALUES ('áéíóúçãõ');
SELECT * FROM ACCENT_TEST;
The select returns: 'aeiouc??'
If I execute that: SELECT ASCIISTR('áéíóúçãõ') FROM DUAL;
It returns: 'aeiouc??'
I think that is something related to the oracle charset.
Following below nls_database_parameters (select * from nls_database_parameters;)

Can someone help me?

Hello,
1. You are selecting the data to check if the accents are "persisted". That is not the correct way. use the dump() function to check the correct codes have been stored. So firstly figure out what the correct codes are for your required strings and check that with the dump() function
2. The value you see on your screen as a result of the select depends on your client NLS_LANG as well as the fonts installed on your client. E.g if the data is stored in a database with charset = A and your client environment is NLS_LANG = B, then SQL*Net converts the data in transit from A --> B. Then it is upto your client or browser to render the characters properly with the proper fonts
Thanks

Informix- Oracle migration: OMWB misapplies SUBSTR function !!!

New problem occured:
OMWB translates Informix's substrings wrong:
Examples of translations:
INFORMIX ORACLE
wvs[1] SUBSTR(wvs,1)
wvs[2,10] SUBSTR(wvs,2,10)
wvs[10] SUBSTR(wvs,10)
It seems, that OMWB only copies index numbers in square brackets as parameters of Oracles's SUBSTR function. But SUBSTR works differently by string indexes closed to [] in Informix !
wvs[1] means 1-st character of wvs string, wvs[3,5] means substring from 3-rd to 5-th character of wvs (length 3), but SUBSTR(wvs,1) means substring from 1-st chracter to end of string, SUBSTR(wvs,3,5) means 5-characters long substring from 3-rd to 7-th character, e.t.c.

Well, I obtained <process_id> from V$SESSION, (...WHERE audsid=to_number(sessid) , ... , sessid:= sys_context('USERENV','SESSIONID') ).
But problem: this process_id is not the same, which has some process, creating standard tracefile "ora_<process_id>_orcl.trc".
In case I run procedure from SQLPLUS, process_id was for example 3258 and trace file had name "ora_3259_orcl.trc". It seems that tracefile was created by some child process, called from sqlplus (having UNIX process_id 3258). But it means, that child's process_id could be bigger more than +1 (when more users works in the same time). And in case I run procedure from some Windows-oriented client on my PC, the <process_id> (obtained from V$SESSION as written above in procedure) had some nonsense value (for ex. 54823716) and tracefile I found under name "ora_3271_orcl.trc" - it seems that process, creating tracefile had normal UNIX-liked process_id 3271. From this issues questions:
1. Is there some way to obtain in procedure process_id, which creates that standard tracefile?
OR:
2. Is there some way to obtain (in procedure) name of that tracefile ? (written into directory defined in USER_DUMP_DEST parameter)

[Gnome - GDM] Locale/Charset Problem

Hi everybody,
I´m using Gnome with GDM as Display Manager.
I got a problem with my keyboard settings, but don´t know why
The first charset/locale option is set in the /boot/grub/menu.lst
kernel /vmlinuz26 lang=de locale=de_DE.UTF8 root=/dev.....
I use a LUKS encrypted /home partition and need a german locale/charset for the passphrase/during bootup.
The second charset option is in my /etc/rc.conf:
LOCALE="de_DE.UTF8"
KEYMAP="de"
With those settings I got an almost "normal" keyboard behaviour.
The Umlaut-Character for example arent´t working during bootup or in a tty. In a later started shell inside of Gnome everything works fine.
The second charset problem is during password input inside GDM. The layout isn´t working right here either.
I already tried the ./dmrc settings of Language and Keys, but nothing works.
Anyone got a clue how to fix that?
Greets
Flo

Maybe you can change the subject of this thread, as the issue is not only related to gdm, IMHO.
I don't get it either. Settings are LOCALE="sv_SE" and KEYMAP="sv-latin1" in rc.conf and locale -a gives me
[root@localhost ~]# locale -a
C
POSIX
sv_SE
sv_SE.iso88591
swedish
But something is still wrong, because calling up some manpages gives me
Cannot open the message catalog "man" for locale "sv_SE"
(NLSPATH="<none>")
I ran locale-gen, but I'm pretty lost in this locale business too...

Everyones Oracle Linux Problem solved!!!

Everyones Oracle Linux Problem solved!!!
Here's something Linux people should relate to: Use what works!
what works?
NT works! NT works great with 8i AND OAS.
No hassles at all!
Up and running within one day!!!!
Guaranteed!
U don't see a NT forum here with people having ridiculous install problems like Linux people?
Perhaps Oracle should moderate this newsgroup and even give an authorative answer or two?
null

I have switched our development and soon production databases to Linux because it runs like a charm. Fast and efficient, no problems. The installer has been a problem no doubt because Oracle put less of an emphasis on debugging their Linux installer than their idiot-proof NT installer.
By the way, I was able to circumvent installer problems by just linking svrmgrl to svrmgrlO; this avoided the dreaded segmentation fault and kicked everything open just fine.
BTW, about NT; what makes an OS is not how well everything works when everything is going well, but how bad it gets when something goes bad. For instance, the segmentation faults on Linux weren't a problem because I just picked up and continued; on NT you'd have to restart the whole system...not a pleasant feature.

JSP, Javabean charset problem

I have some JSP pages where I try to dynamically present some drop-down
menus for the users to select values. I use a simple bean to manage it.
The problem is that those values are in non-iso8859-1 charset and I only
get ?????? rendered in the select box. I define an array (inline in the
JSP page as code scriptlet), write all possible (String) options for the
drop-down menu there and in the bean I do some calculations and render
the drop-down menu.
String label[]={"something in iso-8859-7 encoding in here","something in
iso-8859-7 encoding in here","something in iso-8859-7 encoding in here"};
and in the bean I have a for-loop to access this.
The page directive is set to iso-8859-7.
I think there is some kind of transparent translation, that has to do
with Java language, and after the rendering I only get ???? instead of
the correct iso-8859-7 value in the browser.
Any help appreciated.
(Tomcat, Apache web server, JDK 1.3,)
PS: This JSP page is used to submit some data in an Oracle database
(according to the selection of the user in the drop-down box), so I also
use JDBC 1.3, but I don't think that's relevant at all with my problem...

JDev 1013 EA1 : embeded OC4J default-charset problem

Hi
I'm a web-application programmer interesting in JDeveloper.
I had tried development using JDeveloper 10.1.2
When I used 10.1.2, I add [default-charset="EUC-KR"] to [JDEV_HOME/systemXX/config/global-application.xml]
- or [deployment-application/XXX/XXX/orion-web.xml] -
Because I don't use alphabet.
Anyway, it have effect.
But I encountered problem, after use JDeveloper 10.1.3 EA1.
I set default-charset in embeded-OC4J.
But it had no effect.
If that is a bug, please tell me how to use a installed OC4J in JDeveloper.
Please help me.
Thanks for read this message

This looks like a bug in OC4J
Can you try this and let us know if it works?
Set the charset in the application level orion-web.xml and deploy it to the Stand alone OC4J and see if it works.
1. Add a new OC4J Deployment Descriptor to your project
2. Choose orion-web.xml
3. Open the file in editor
4. Set the default-charset setting
<orion-web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/orion-web-10_0.xsd"
schema-major-version="10" schema-minor-version="0"
servlet-webdir="/servlet/" default-charset="EUC-KR"></orion-web-app>
(Make sure all the other settings are set right. Similar to what you see in [deployment-application/XXX/XXX/orion-web.xml] )
5. Create a WAR deployment profile
6. Deploy the application to Standalone OC4J connection

Charset problems using SQLLDR

Hello!
My task is to import data from a Microsoft Access Database into an Oracle Database. I got a Script which creates Flatfiles and Controlfiles with the data from Access. My problem is the characterset. There are some signs (e.g. the typical german quotationmark at the BOTTOM oder the "longer dash" you get from MS Word by using "blank+dash+blank"), which obviously cannot be convertet. So there are "turn-round questionsmarks". So I tried many different char-sets. I tried different nls_charset settings at oracle side and many charset as the parameter of the control files. But none combination let me get the right result. Does anybody know how I can get rid of this consersation desaster?

Russian charset problem

I've got Oracle database 8.1.7 and Oracle 9iAS installed on the same machine, Windows NT.
When I try to create form containing russian field names with Portal, it stores them (and then displays) in wrong charset. NLS_LANG parameters are all set to RUSSIAN_CIS.CL8MSWIN1251.
Does anyone know how to avoid this problem?

It's a bug.
When you create a new form edit it and add labels in Russian, before clicking Ok you should click on the root of the component tree (Form). In this case all Russian characters will be saved with proper encoding.

Charset problem -- NLS_LANG the reason

If hab the following problem
I use a unix server where a Oracle Server 10.2.0.2.0 64bit Version runs
on this database i save my SAP data
Now i have also a Windows 2000 Server where i run a Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 32 bit Client
From this client i wanna make queries with MS Access 2003 via ODBC
There is no connection problem but a problem with the signs which are shown in linked table from Access
in SAP on the server i see for example "Moneriő" in my Access table i see only "Monerio"---> a modified "o"
Where could be the error
Is the reason a wrong adjusted NLS_Lang in the Windows registry on the client ???
There i can read " GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8MSWIN1252"
On the server i can see with "select * from nls_database_parameters" the following
NLS_NCHAR_CHARSET ---> UTF8
NLS_LANGUAGE -->AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY --> AMERICA
Would it solve my problem, if i modifie NLS_LANG on the client to the same values like those on the Server
Please help me thanks

Hi thanks for your response
i had a look on NLS_CHARACTERSET of my database. It is also UTF8.
This charset is optimal for my requirements, it contains all necessary characters i wanna use.
Now my question again: IS it necessary to change
NLS_NCHAR_CHARSET to UTF8
NLS_LANGUAGE to AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY to AMERICA
Or what can be the rease else??

Migration bigger database structure Informix- Oracle : neverending process ?

I have problem: I tried to convert Informix source model to oracle model (real database structure - several tenths of tables, triggers, procedures, ... - without data). Log window "Creating oracle model" appeared and icon and text "Mapping" had been showed. And this state stayed permanent. Nothing following happened, no next changes on file 'omwb.odb' I could to see. After 6
hours i 'clicked' on 'Abort' button. On following Workbench showed message that it could not to do abort and recommended me to restart program.
Are there some limitations in Workbench for complexity of database structure ? How many time can take obviously creating of Oracle model from real (but empty) database ? Can it take more then 6 hours ?!
null

No, 6 hours is too long, something has gone wrong with the migration. Please send the error.log file (under %ORACLE_HOME%/Omwb/log) and a description of the problem to [email protected] and we shall do our best to assist you.

Oracle 10g to 11g Upgrade - Oracle Clusterware problem

Thank you

Hi Chandra,
Did CVU report any problems before the upgrade?No, there were no errors reported by CVU before the upgrade.
I don't there is note out there for cleaning 11g CRS
install...and I think can very use the 10g CRS note -
239998.1.Yeah I might have to go that way.
I have both the 11g CRS install and upgrade from 10g
to 11CRS at
http://chandradba.blogspot.com/2007/08/oracle-11g-rac-
install-on-red-hat-50.html
and
http://chandradba.blogspot.com/2008/02/oracle-10g-crs-
upgrade-to-11g-crs.html
see if it helps.Yup, your guide is very simple, clear and error proof :) That's how mine when pretty much except right around 75% I started getting these strange errors of files not being able to be transferred to node 2. Anyways, it shouldn't be a problem as none of those errors were configuration related...or else I would have a messed up cluster.
Well, I actually rebooted both machines and now the whole CRS stack is up!! So I guess I am ok. We'll just have to wait and see.
Thanks for your help Chandra...I always appreciate it.

This resolved my problem as well. I am on Windows 2000 server, SP2. The problem installing Oracle 8.1.7.0.0 standard edition exhibited itself by briefly changing the cursor to an hourglass and then returning to ready. The executable JREW.EXE would briefly execute in processes and then stop.
I copied the installation media to a server drive and renamed symcjit.dll and the installer worked correctly.
Thank you to Yugandhar for this solution.
We too faced some of those problems ie setup.exe wont even run in Windows XP pro, p4 system..the culprit is symcjit.dll. Its the problem in p4 to run this dll. After lot of research, just rename it and all is set to go.
