NCLOB support-Urgent

Hi,
I have a client in oracle 8.1.7 and the server is in oracle 9.2.0.5. I have a function which returns an NCLOB datatype. I am able to successfully execute the function.
I am getting an error when I use it in Business Objects as "ORA-03108: oranet: ORACLE does not support this interface version".
I upgraded my Oracle client version to 9.2.0.1. But, even now I am getting the same error in Business Objects.
Can anyone tell me whether it is a problem with Oracle or Business Objects?
Is it still a problem that my Oracle version is different from my server's version?
Thanks a lot for any help provided.

The choices are (1) use UTF8 as the base character set and don't use
NCHAR/NVARCHAR/NCLOB or (2) submit patches to PHP OCI8 to add NCLOB
support or (3) use another language.
I wouldn't trust NCHAR/NVARCHAR to work consistently in PHP OCI8,
despite (or because of) there being automatic mapping to non N* types
in some cases.
I know you might be using XE 11.2 just for testing. However, if you
are targeting that edition for production use, the character set is
AL32UTF8 so there isn't a direct need to use NCHAR/NVARCHAR/NCLOB.
From Choosing a Character Set:
"Oracle recommends using SQL CHAR, VARCHAR2, and CLOB data types in [a] AL32UTF8
database to store Unicode character data. Use of SQL NCHAR,NVARCHAR2, and NCLOB
should be considered only if you must use a database whose database character set
is not AL32UTF8."
Regarding CentOS, I would recommend using Oracle Linux which is free
to download & install, has free patches etc, has a faster kernel than
RHEL available, and is the OS we test the DB on.  You can get it from
http://public-yum.oracle.com/
If possible target a newer version of PHP.  PHP 5.3 is in security
fix-only mode, and this will end soon.  I would recommend building
your own PHP, or using Zend Server (either the free or paid edition).
For new development, use PHP 5.5.

    It's not very clear exactly what your problem is, but if it's to do with any sort of purchase other than in iTunes or renewal your best bet is to ring the Online Store at the number given at bottom left of this page.
    If it's an iTunes purchase go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column and then 'iTunes Store' in the third column.

  • NCLOB support in OCI8

    I'm currently developing a multilingual website with PHP and Oracle and I'm facing a problem concerning NCLOBs. I know that the "The Underground PHP and Oracle Manual" states that all NCHAR-related data types are not supported. However, apparently NCHAR and NVARCHAR2 do work just fine. So I'm wondering how up to date this information is. Anyway, the problem is that I can't write to NCLOB columns via OCI-Lob::write. The call succeeds and returns the number of chars written, but the column stays empty. Is there any hope I can get this to work? If not, is there another library that I could use to connect PHP with the database that supports NCLOBs?
    I'm using the following code:
    $s = oci_parse($dbc, "INSERT INTO trouble (xnclob) values (EMPTY_CLOB()) returning xnclob into :lob");
    $lob = oci_new_descriptor($dbc);
    oci_bind_by_name($s, "lob", $lob, -1, SQLT_CLOB);
    $result = oci_execute($s, OCI_NO_AUTO_COMMIT);
    $lob->write($data); // Succeeds, but column stays empty!
    oci_commit($dbc);
    The code seems to work fine with BLOBs and normal CLOBs. Out test server is running the following software:
    CentOS 6.4 64-Bit
    PHP 5.3.3
    OCI8 1.4.9
    Oracle 11g Release 2 XE

  • NChar/NVarchar2/NClob support

    We are currently using single-byte character representation(WE8ISO8859P1 and WE8MSWIN1252) within the db and are wanting to try and keep it that way, so are looking at using the n* data types for handling strings that contain special characters outside the current character set. The kicker her is that we would also like to be able to Text index the fields within these data types.
    First off, anyone know why these data types are not supported within Oracle Text?
    Secondly, am I way off here in thinking this can be done or do we have no choice but to make the character set within the server be a unicode set?
    Finally, if there is a way to do this, could one point me in the direction of a document explaining how this can be done?
    Thanks a ton for your help,

  • Oracle 8i XML Support (Urgent !)

    Hi
    I would like to know the support offered by Oracle 8i for
    storing XML documents in database and querying on them.
    What component of 8i offers this support and in what way is it
    different from support offered by PLSXML ?
    I am looking to store XML documents in Oracle 8i database and
    querying on them. Also I want to extract data from database and
    dynamically generate HTML paged for on-line viewing.
    This information is very crucial to me. Help of any kind is

    I am not sure to which features you refer? If you are asking
    about the CONTAINS operator that works in 8i now. The document
    registration to a schema will be delivered in the iFS beta.

    1: Does 9iAS v 10200 support custom installation ? For example I
    want to install only web server,webcache,forms & reports support.
    If custom installation of individual components is not available
    on v 10200 then in which version it is supported ?
    2. whenever I try installs 9iAS v 10200 from network,then after
    rebooting(during start of installation)it gives JRE error. is
    this a limitation of 9iAS v 10200 ?
    3. 9iAS v 10200 web cache does not support applet. In which
    version of 9iAS web cache would support applet ?
    Its urgent. Thanks in Advance

    these are all available with iAS10221 onwards.You check for
    installation docs related to the version you are using.

  • Unicode and databases support urgent help

    Hello!
    i want to know that how we can store the unicode characters
    in a database.
    is this necessary for a database to support unicode or is there any
    other way to do this.

    From example of Oracle I belive, that your RDBMS has to support Unicode. Another option is to store your Unicode as binary object. But this has to be hard :(

    You can check the md5 checksums for the staged directory structure to validate the software integrity before starting the installation. Do this by running the md5sum program or an equivalent program for your platform from a shell program against the stage area and comparing the values returned against the ones published by Oracle.

  • Trouble with UTF-8 and PHP-OCI

    Hi there!
    I'm having some serious trouble with UTF-8. I just tried to insert a lambda into an NCLOB column in one of my databases and it was converted to an inverted question mark. I have verified that the string reaches my PHP script correctly encoded. Also selecting RAWTOHEX(column) in SQL Developer shows, that the inverted question mark is already stored in the column. So the problem must be somewhere between PHP-OCI and the database. Inserting a lambda via SQL developer works. I can also correctly fetch it via PHP.
    I'm using the latest PHP-OCI (2.0.8). v$version says "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production".
    The database is fairly old and uses WE8MSWIN1252 as the character set and AL16UTF16 as the NCHAR character set. Hence I'm using NCLOB instead of CLOB. However, I connect to the database with AL32UTF8, since my app is running in UTF-8. I was under the impression that this would result in an automatic conversion from UTF-8 to UTF-16 when inserting into NCLOB columns, but apperently this is not the case. It looks like there is some sort of double conversion, first UTF-8 to WE8MSWIN1252 and then to UTF-16, because some non-ASCII characters like ä (a umlaut) get correctly converted from UTF-8 to UTF-16.
    Any ideas? I'm at a loss here. Thanks in advance.

    PHP OCI8 doesn't support NCLOB or NVARCHAR2.

    To the point, a NoClassDefFoundError simply means that the in the message mentioned class (or at least, the JAR file with the class) is missing in the runtime classpath.
    So either it is actually missing, or your code is not using the paths you think it would be used for the classpath, or there are collisions of duplicate different versioned classes in the classpath.

Maybe you are looking for
