Japanese locale on Solaris 8

Question

I have a Solaris 8 machine, on which I have a web application that takes up data stored in UTF-8 from Oracle and shows that on a web page in SHIFTJIS encoding.
This application displays the data correctly when run on windows machine but gives problem on Solaris 8.
Any ideas?

Answer 1

you only need libumem if the program that generated the core file had
loaded libumem.
libumem is available from Solaris 9 and is an alternative malloc library that works like the kernel memory allocator allowing good debugging and memory leak checking amongst its benefits. If you need libumem features to be able to debug the program then you will need some
new core files with libumem loaded ( solaris 9 and later).
to see what libraries were loaded in your program before the core files use "pldd core"
to see the stack traces run "gcore core"
to debug the cores use "mdb program core"
