Problems with oracle character set

Hi,
We use weblogic SP2 and a oracle oci driver to connect to a database. When we tried to store a text file within the database, we found that all the '£' signs in the file are converted to question marks.
Looking at the NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS table in the database suggests that we are using AL32UTF8 as the character set. I have since tried setting the NLS_LANG variable on the application server to use the same character set but this doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Any experts out there know how I can fix this problem?
Thanks!

Hi Yash,
Can u tell me how to insert values in a nchar/nvarchar column in
Indian language scripts?
I have set database characterset to 'IN8ISCII'? But while
inserting values in the table I am getting error as characterset
mismatch'
I have tried it using UTF8 chracterset also??
As fa as your problem is concerened, I think u have to set the
nls_ characterset value$ in props$ table
and same for nls_nchar_characterset column also..
Thanks in advance

  • URGENT Problem with Greek Character from an Oracle database

    Hello, I am having a serious and urgent problem with the character settings of an oracle database (8.1.7). The database is sitting in a solaris unix server and when we run the env command we have the following in the NLS_LANG parameter: AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 (I do not know if this is helpful). When I retrieve data from oracle database (through a VB.NET 2005 program)to a dataset I use a special font in order to see the greek characters (HELLASARIAL). But when I am trying to save these data to a TXT file the greek characters are like Chinese to us. I tried several encodings (System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(869)) but without success. Can someone tell me how to convert the oracle greek characters during the selection or during the saving to the TXT file?
    Please respond as fast as you can.
    Thanks in advance

    Here is the answer of the microsoft:
    I have the information that you have a VB.Net 2005 application connected to an Oracle database 8.1.7.4 hosted on a UNIX server.
    This database has the CharacterSet WE8ISO8859P1.
    When retrieving Greek characters from this database in the application, you cannot see them.
    Could you please send me a screenshot of these characters in the .Net application?
    Are they displayed as gibberish, or as inverted questions marks (?)?
    I already had similar cases with Hebrew characters hosted on an Oracle database.
    These characters were displayed as questions marks on the client side.
    This is due to the fact that System.Data.OracleClient is using the Server CharacterSet to display the characters.
    If your Greek characters are not stored in the WE8ISO8859P1 characterset, then they won’t display correctly on the client-side.
    This is different from OLEDB where you could interact on client side by modifying the NLS_LANG parameter in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0.
    The client NLS_LANG and the server CharacterSet had to match in order to correctly display the data, and avoid SQL*NET conversion.
    So there are two solutions to your case:
    - The first one is to create a new database using the P8 characterset. The Oracle .Net managed provider will so be able to use it and display the characters correctly.
    - The second one is to use the OLEDB.Net managed provider, and then use OLEDB for Oracle provider. OLEDB will take care of the client NLS_LANG registry parameter.
    Would it be possible to test your application against an Oracle database with WE8ISO8859P8 characterset?
    Would it be possible to test it with the OLEDB .Net managed provider, and after checking the NLS_LANG client registry parameter?

  • Import problem due to Character set

    I did an export of an entire schema using Original export utility(not Datapump) in 10G Release 1 (10.1.0.3.0). When i tried to import it. I got the error mentioned below. It is something to do with the character set. What settings do i have to give during import to bypass this Character set problem? After taking the export dmp file i deleted the Schema. So i all i've got is the export dmp file.

    (*bump*)
    Almost the exact same problem here...
    "conn" is an object of type OracleConnection
    "cst" is an object of type "CallableStatement"
    "xml" is a String holding a well-formed XML document (say, "<foo><bar>value</bar></foo>")
    XMLType xt = XMLType.createXML(conn, xml);
    cst.setObject(1, xt); // BOOM! Non supported character set: oracle-character-set-178
    Other relevant details:
    Using the 9.2.0.3 JDBC thin client (ojdbc14.jar)
    Using the newest nls_charset12.zip (in the 9.2.0.3 download section under the "1.2/1.3" heading.
    JDK1.4.1_03 (04?)
    Oracle itself is 9.2.0.3
    database charset is 'WE8MSWIN1252' (yeah, I fought with the DBA and lobbied for UTF-8, but obviously he won that battle... sigh...)
    Also relevant... prior to a few days ago, it worked. Then, the DBA did an upgrade and the charset errors began. It's hard to get a straight answer from him because his English isn't very good, but my guess is that he updated it from 9.2.0.1 to 9.2.0.3.

  • Oracle character set confused

    Dear all:
          We installed the Latest NW7.0 SR3 for EP&EP core for my Portal application. After that ,i found that our oralce default character set is UTF-8. But some of other Java codes(Iviews,pages..which we developed on Tomcat envionment.)are based in the environment of Oracle character set ZHS16GBK. So iam confused that The NW7.0 SR3 can only install in 64bit OS and a Unicode system. Can i change the oracle character set from UTF8 to ZHS16GBK. Or how can i install the SAP system whose oracle basing on character set ZHS16GBK.
    Thanks everyone.

    Hello Shao,
    ok lets clarify some things at the beginning.
    A SAP Java system is not "only using" the database characterset, it is using the national characterset (column types NCHAR, NVARCHAR2, NCLOB). You can check this by reading sapnote #669902.
    You can also check sapnote #456968/#695899 for the supported super sets:
    => As of SAP Web AS Release 7.00 and Oracle client 10g, multibyte character sets are no longer supported
    With these informations you can not use ZHS16GBK.
    > But some of other Java codes(Iviews,pages..which we developed on Tomcat envionment.)are based in the environment of Oracle character set ZHS16GBK
    Sorry but i don't understand this sentence.
    What is your problem with the java code? Do you have custom tables with column types CHAR,VARCHAR2 or CLOB?
    Regards
    Stefan

  • Please Help:  A Problem With Oracle-Provided 'Working' Example

    A Problem With Oracle-Provided 'Working' Example Using htp.formcheckbox
    I followed the simple steps in the Oracle-provided example:
    Doc ID: Note:116534.1
    Subject: How to use checkbox in webdb for bulk update using webdb report
    However, when I select a checkbox and click on the Update button, I get a "ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number" error. Please advise. This was a very promising feature.
    Fred
    Below are step-by-step instructions provided by Oracle to create this "working" example:
    How to use a checkbox in WEBDB 2.2 report for bulk update.
    PURPOSE
    This article shows how checkbox can used placed on WEBDB report
    and how to use it.
    SCOPE & APPLICATION
    The following example to guide through the steps to create a working
    example of this.
    In this example, the checkbox is used to select the records. On clicking
    the update button, the pl/sql procedure is called which will update col1 to
    the string 'OK'.
    After the update is done, the PL/SQL procedure calls the report again.
    Since the report only select records where col1 is null, the updated
    records will not be displayed when the report is called again.
    Step 1 - Create Table
    From Sqlplus, log in as scott/tiger and execute the following:
    drop table chkbox_example;
    create table chkbox_example
    (id varchar2(10) not null,
    comments varchar2(20),
    col1 varchar2(10));
    Step 2 - Insert Test Data
    From Sqlplus, still logged in as scott/tiger , execute the following:
    declare
    l_i number;
    begin
    for l_i in 1..50 loop
    insert into chkbox_example values (l_i, 'Comments ' || l_i , NULL);
    end loop;
    commit;
    end;
    Step 3 -Create SQL Query based WEBDB report
    Logon to a WEBDB site which has access to the database the above tables are created.
    Create a SQL based Report.
    Name the report :RPT_CHKBOX
    The select statement for the report is :
    select c.id, c.comments, c.col1,
    htf.formcheckbox('p_qty',c.id) Tick
    from SCOTT.chkbox_example c
    where c.col1 is null
    In Advanced PL/SQL, (REPORT, Before displaying the form), put the following code
    htp.formOpen('scott.chkbox_process');
    htp.formsubmit('p_request','Update');
    htp.br;
    htp.br;
    Step 4 - Create a stored procedure in the database
    Log on to the database as scott/tiger and execute the following to create the
    procedure.
    Note: Replace WEBDB to the appropriate webdb user for your installation.
    In my database, I had installed webdb using WEBDB username, hence user webdb owns
    the packages.
    create or replace procedure chkbox_process
    ( p_request in varchar2 default null,
    p_qty in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr ,
    p_arg_names in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr ,
    p_arg_values in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr
    is
    i number;
    begin
    for i in 1..p_qty.count loop
    if p_qty(i) is not null then
    begin
    update chkbox_example
    set col1 = 'OK'
    where chkbox_example.id = p_qty(i);
    end;
    end if;
    end loop;
    commit;
    /* To Call Report again after updating */
    SCOTT.RPT_CHKBOX.show
    (p_request=>'Run Report',
    p_arg_names=>webdb.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(' '),
    p_arg_values=>webdb.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(' '));
    end;
    Summary
    There are essentially 2 main modules, The WEBDB report and the pl/sql procedure (chkbox_process)
    A button is created via the advanced pl/sql coding which shows on top of the report. (The
    button cannot be placed at the bottom of the report due to the way WEBDB creates the procedure
    internally)
    When any button is clicked on the report, it calls the pl/sql procedure chkbox_process.
    The procedure is called , WEBDB always passes the parameters p_request,p_arg_names and o_arg_values.
    p_qty is another parameter that we are passing additionally, This comes from the checkbox created
    using the htf.formcheckbox in the report select statement.
    The pl/sql procedure calls the report again after processing. This is done to
    show how to call the report.
    Restrictions:
    -The Next and Prev buttons on the report will not work.
    So it is important that the report can fit in 1 page only.
    (This may mean that you will not select(not ticked) 'Paginate' under
    'Display Option' in the WEBDB report. If you do this,
    then in Step 4, remove p_arg_names and p_arg_values as input parameters
    to the chkbox_process)

    If your not so sure you can use the instanceof
    insurance,
    Object o = evt.getSource();
    if (o instanceof Button) {
    Button source = (Button) o;
    I haven't thoroughly read the thread, but I use something like this:if (evt.getSource() == someObjRef) {
        // do that voodoo
    ]I haven't looked into why you'd be creating a new reference...

  • 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.

  • Searching with different character sets

    Hello,
    we have a problem with Intermedia 8.1.6. running on Solaris.
    The table contains the text with different character sets and that's the problem. User submits the query in his char.set and the IM sometimes doesn't find the data.
    Idea is to create the index using the flat ascii chars and to search in ascii ... but how?
    Can anybody help me?

  • Problem with ORACLE database

    Hi all,
    I am facing some problem with ORACLE database while configuring one JDBC scenario in the receiver side. I have configured one JDBC scenario like FILE TO JDBC. As JDBC is at receiver side i have provided the input file with the following format ,
    <root>
      <StatementName1>
         <dbTableName action="INSERT">
             <table>employee</table>
              <access>
                    <flag>NO</flag> 
                    <ID>567</ID>
             <NAME>134</NAME>
                 </access>
         </dbTableName>
      </StatementName1>
    </root>
    But in the ORACLE database all my columns are in the uppercase.
    So when i have tried to send this input file to process through JDBC receiver side then i have faced the below error :
    FATAL ERROR: Column 'flag' does not exist in table 'employee'
    Then I have tried to check with sender side processing of JDBC adapter. By using the SQL statements as
    SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE flag='NO'
    UPDATE EMPLOYEE SET Flag='YES'  WHERE flag='NO'
    Here it worked fine.
    Now my question is,
    If the same adapter is working when we are writing a query directly(sender side), then we must also allow case independence in the auto generated SQL part(receiver side).
    The JDBC drivers for both SQL server and Oracle, supports the same java code, for accessing the DB, irrespective of the case of the column names.
    Please clarify this doubt as soon as possible.
    Thanks,
    Soorya.

    Hi Dharmaveer,

                    <NAME>SSS</NAME>
                 </access>
             </dbTableName>
      </StatementName1>
    </root>
    I will get the following query with succesfull processing.
    INSERT INTO  EMPLOYEE (FLAG, ID, NAME) VALUES (NO, 666, SSS)
    when i go with this input file,
    <root>

                        </access>
                   </dbTableName>
      </StatementName1>
    </root>
    Then i am facing this problem,
    Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc.

    Here I cant get any SQL statement as it is not successfull.
    I have gone through your link but it also says to modify the column in the input file which is not possible for me. Can you please help me in this regard?

    Please help
    regards,
    Fannie

    yupp finally i got the solution. . .
    I was using connection from tomcat connection pooling.
    Hence, even though i was setting the classes12.jar and nls_charset12.jar in the classpath and compiling, -In runtime tomcat was using its own classes in the common/lib folder. . .(which might not support oracle-character-set-178.)
    So just added this jars into the common/lib of tomcat instead of web-inf/lib of my project
    and things began working. . .
    Thanks for the hint jshell. . .

  • Problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition

    Hello all,
    I have a problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition (32 bit).
    I have successfully installed it immediately after OS installation. But today, i have decided to deinstall it and go for Oracle 10g version for 32 bit.
    Everything went normal during installation, but i can see the services is not present in services.msc. Also its throwing some exception for dbca, netca
    Now i tried to deinstall it and again go for 11g. But even the same story here..
    Can anybody give me a solution for this..
    -Regards
    Rajesh Menon

    ur problem is that u install latest version and now u trying to installing old version.
    now u need to uninstall 10g and delete oracle from services, if the probleme presist then u should
    install fresh windows 7.
    Regards
    SaqibNo need to install a fresh OS. That's like tearing your house down just because you wired a lamp wrong and blew a circuit breaker.
    There are MeaLink notes on how to eradicate an Oracle install from Windows, but it boils down to this:
    Stop all Oracle services
    In the registery:
    - Delete all oracle services from the register (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
    - Delete the entire Oralce folder from HKLM\Software
    reboot
    Delete the ORACLE_HOME directory and any other Oracle related directories/files. Offhand, it seems like there is an Oracle directory under Program Files.
    reboot

  • A lot of problems with Oracle BI SEE 11g

    I have a lot of problems with Oracle BI SEE 11g
    1. I upgraded my BI SEE 10 repository and can it openning in offline mode.
    2. I can't deploy my upgraded repository in EM MW Control 11g - when i try to open Farm_bifoundation_domain->Business Intelligence->coreapplication, i get error "Stream closed
    For more information, please see the server's error log for an entry beggining with: Server Exception during PPR, #41".
    Opening Logs by EM control doesn't work too.
    in file middleware\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\servers\AdminServer\logs\AdminServer.log i see this event:
    <Error> <HTTP> <oratest.itera.ru> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <b639ac3e56e9a463:bd6fa7f:12ac7271e09:-8000-00000000000009e8> <1283408423378> <BEA-101019> <[ServletContext@329875093[app:em module:/em path:/em spec-version:2.5]] Servlet failed with IOException

    Have you any ideas?
    3. Ok, i taking sample repository and adding a new datasource in it:
    Database: Oracle 8i
    Connection pool:
    Call interface OCI 8i/9i
    Data source name:
    (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = oraapp) (Port = 1521) ) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = MYSID) ) )
    This settings are working fine in BI 10.
    In BI 11g i get this funny error: "The connection has failed". I lost my time in attempts to connect to Oracle DB 8, but have not results. After that i hacked button "Query DBMS" at "Features" tab, pressed it and when get error "ORA-03134: Connections to this server version are no longer supported.".
    Therefore Oracle 8 DB as datasource not supported. Am i right?
    4. In sample repository i added oracle DB 10 as datasource, then added two dual tables and their connection to all layers.
    Now i open BI Answers, and trying to create report with one dummy column, Now i have this error:
    Error
         View Display Error
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
    Error Details
    Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P

    SQL Issued: SELECT s_0, s_1 FROM ( SELECT 0 s_0, "ORA10G"."dual"."dummy" s_1 FROM "ORA10G" ) djm
    Database features are defaults.
    Does anyone solve this problem?

    Turribeach, Thanks for you time.
    1. It was not a question
    3. Yes, i have read platforms, but not supported datasources. Now i see, that BI 11g support as datasource Oracle DB 9.2.0.7 or higher. I am sorry.
    4. I'm using OCI connection type
    Now i recreate Database in Physical schema and answers is showing report data for me! But only from one table, when i use columns from to tables from one datasource, i geting error:
    Error View Display Error Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW). Error Details Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P State: HY000. Code: 10058.
