Russian Character Set Help

Hello
I have a web application developed using JSP/Oracle.
The site content is Russian , thats a problem .
Oracle uses character set CL8MSWIN1251.
If i fill russian character set into database directly
all works fine.
But if i try to use the administration part of the web
application
I mean enter contents in Russian and submit the form
from request i dont get the thing i posted.Its completly
different.
I tried all options like request.setCharacterEncoding to many
charactersets that i found in different forums , but still in vein.
I will greatly appreciate your help.Its really urgent.
Thanks in advance

Thank you for your reply.
I run the query:
select * from nls_database_parameters
where parameter in('NLS_LANGUAGE','NLS_TERRITORY','NLS_CHARACTERSET');
And he returned:
PARAMETER     VALUE
NLS_LANGUAGE     AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY     AMERICA
NLS_CHARACTERSET     CL8MSWIN1251
Then I set the variable NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252; export NLS_LANG
and tried to run ./frmcmp /oracle/formsp/CORE/FORM_NAME.FMB userid=XXX/XXX@XXX compile_all=yes batch=yes window_state=minimize
but received FRM-91500: Unable to start/complete the build.
Strange, but when you try to change the environment variable NLS_LANG, frmcmp can not run. If I do unset NLS_LANG frmcmp working properly.
Maybe it's something to do with the configuration of locale and fonts in Solaris?
Because I can not enter Russian or in graphical mode (when working through vnc) or in konsole mode (when connecting via putty) ...
It is worth mentioning that when I run the form, then all the data from the database appear in the fields correctly, in Russian. Incorrectly displays only those characters that belong to the form (such as titles of forms, labels on buttons, etc.).
Please help me find a solution.

Support for Russian Character Set

What would you recommend as the NLS_LANG vaule for Oracle to support the Russian Character set. There are a few available like RU8BESTA. Which is recommended.

Hi Ger,
I need a little more information to make any suggestion. Is Russian the only language you intend to support? What is the client(s) OS that will be connecting and inserting data in the database?

Trouble with national character set - HELP!

I've got a problem with croatian characters like :h, f, , , p. They can not be displayed in Portal.
There is no matter if it is display name or label...

I think you've got me closer to the problem, whatever it is:

Socket Connection - Character Set - Help

Hello:
I am creating a socket using UTL_TCP package. After making a successful connection, I have to send data in ISO-8859 format. The message should look something like this.
STX followed by data in ascii followed by ETX.
STX and ETX are ascii for 2 and 3.
I have the data in STRING. example 'DOWNLAOD ME TO THE SERVER'. This string is currently in VARCHAR2 variable.
I would like to know how can I convert the above data to ASCII string and then prefix it with STX and suffix with ETX before I send it down the socket. I think I have to use utl_encode package but am not sure where to start.
Please help.
Thanks.

Do not understand your problem. It seems to me that you simply need to create a varchar2 string that contains the ASCII text you want to transmit via TCP using the socket connection you have creared, using the API call UTL_TCP.WRITE_LINE (write string without a TCP linefeed char) or UTL_TCP.WRITE_LINE (with linefeed).

We have our main database running in 10g (Solaris o/s) & planning to move these to RAC 11g.
One of our old oracle DB(8.0.5)/solaris, which is not used till recently need to upgrade to 10g Rel2.
I know Supported direct upgrade 8.0.6/8.1.7/9i -> 10g
Current DB: 8.0.5 (Character Set: AR8ISO8859P6)

8.0.5(AR8ISO8859P6) -> 8.1.7(AR8ISO8859P6) -> 10G(AR8MSWIN1256)
OR
8.0.5(AR8ISO8859P6) -> 8.1.7(AR8MSWIN1256) -> 10G(AR8MSWIN1256)

Oracle to Mysql character set conversion problem!!! PLZ HELP

Hi Experts,
I have created a database link from Oracle 10g to Mysql 5.
I have installed Oracle Gateway 11g for this purpose.
When i retreive the data from sql plus the text is displayed as question marks.
Oracle 10g Database character set is WE8MSWIN1252
Mysql character set --->latin1
Character set of ODBC connector for mysql is latin7
Character set in the parameter file of HS folder is WE8MSWIN1252When i retrieve data from sql developer the text is fine(as i think it directly takes the character set of target) but
when i login from sqlplus i get question marks!
Appreciate your help,
regards

thank you for replying damorgan,
my previous two threads in the "heterogeneous Connectivity" forum were for different issues, one was to enquire as to how i could connect from oracle to mysql(which i have marked as answered), the other is for error when i get when i tried accessing data(which i am still facing on my office machine ).
I followed the steps from these two threads and was able to successfully connect to mysql on my personal PC at home, but faced some problem with text not displayed so i created this thread.
I had created another thread similar to this in the globalisation support as i was facing issue with the character sets in a heterogenous setup, so wasen't clear as to which forum would be suitable for this issue.
My apologies to everyone if this has offended you.

2) and comment out both rows:

3)closed jdeveloper and opened again

Character set not supported!! DBConversion error. Need Help!

I installed JDeveloper9.2 on windows 2000. When I try to make a database server connection by using OCI8 driver, it gives me a "Character set not supported DBConversion error". After that I tried to connect database by using Thin driver, everything is OK. I really need your help.
I used database connection wizard to make the connection. Connection type I selected ORACLE(JDBC) and drive I selected OCI8. After that I tried to test connection, it gave me above error. I noticed that JDeveloper did not talked with database server at all, I tried to connect with a database server which does not exist, it still gave me the same error.

Just ran into this myself yester day.
There is a Metalink Note on it.
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showFrameDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=190281.1
Problem Description
You are using OC4J and trying to connect to a database using JDBC OCI and
are getting:
"java.sql.SQLException: Character Set Not Supported !!: DBConversion"
Solution Description
Replace the <OC4J_HOME>\jdbc\lib\classes12dms.jar with
<ORACLE_HOME>\jdbc\lib\classes12.jar and rename it with classes12dms.jar.
Explanation
It seems there is a mismatch of classes12.zip supplied with OC4J 9.0.2
and the Oracle9i client libraries ocijdbc8.dll or ocijdbc8.so.
OC4J 9.0.2 does not use jdbc\lib\classes12.jar instead it uses
jdbc\lib\classes12dms.jar. So, in order to use the 9.0.1 client with OC4J, you
will need to make a copy of classes12.jar and rename it to classes12dms.jar
References
[NOTE:108876.1] Creating Connection gives "No ocijdbc8 in java.library.path"
[NOTE:174808.1] JDev9i and OCI Connections
I copied and renamed the jar (classes12.jar) as they stated.
Note: It should be in the directory you set in the JDev.conf, mine is
AddNativeCodePath D:\OraNT\9iDS\bin
Didn't try the other reply's suggestion of setting an environment variable.

Oracle 8i us7ascii character set problem - help required urgent.

Hi frnds,
I have a oracle 8i database server installed on sun solaris os. The database character set is us7ascii. In one of the tables TIFF images are stored in a long column. I m trying to fetch these images using oracle 9i client and visual basic(oracle ODBC drivers). But i m unable to do so. I can not fetch special characters.
Is it because of the character set problem? but when i run my code on the server itself, i m able to fetch the images. I tried to fetch the images using oracle 8 i client on windows XP machine but could not do so. Are there any special settings that i have to do on the client side?

Indeed, it's an ODBC issue. Read this statement from Oracle:
From ODBC 8.1.7.2.0 drivers onwards it's NOT possible any more to
"disable" Characterset conversion by specifying for the NLS_LANG
the same characterset as the database characterset. There is now
ALWAYS a check to see if a codepoint is valid for that characterset.
Typically you will encounter problems if you upgrade an environment
that has NO NLS_LANG set on the client (or US7ASCII) and the database
was also US7ASCII. This incorrect setup allowed you to store characters
like èçàé in an US7ASCII database, with the new 8i drivers this is not possible
any more.
Basic problem is the 'wrong' characterset US7ASCII in the database. As long as no characterset conversion happens (that's the case on the unix server), special characters are no problem.

i run my code on the server itself, i m able to fetch
the images. I tried to fetch the images using oracle
8 i client on windows XP machine but could not do so.You able to fetch the image , So it is not because of the character set.
First thing you need to consider is that use certified combination of OS , client and database server only. Check Certify - Oracle's Certification Matrices

Character set change? Help!

Hi,
I am doing imports and the export client uses ZHS16GBK character set (simplified chinese) and my imports are done in
US7ASCII which is not a super set of the aforementioned character set. I want to change to ZHS32GB18030 which is a super set
of US7ASCII and ZHS16GBK. Is it possible to change my character set in sql plus?
Also could this character conversion cause an IMP-00008 error (unrecognized statement in export file)?

From doing research I have found that IMP-00008 is because the file is corrupt. Is this always the case?
Also, you said there errors would not be because of a character set conversion issue, does that mean I do need to change my character set?

Help:character set mismatch after DB installation

hai friends,
After my oracle installtion database character set *(AL32UTF8)* and client character
set*(WE8MSWIN1252)* became different..and a message specifies that i can set client character set through
HKLM/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/KEY_trial registry..so what i suposed to do..now the NLS_LAG.reg contains the value as AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252...so for changing from one character set to another what i have to type inside NLS_LAG.reg...
thanks in advance...

The client character set must match the Operating System code page, so check HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\CodePage\, look for an entry with name ACP, if its value is "1252" then NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252 is OK. See Note *179133.1* The correct NLS_LANG in a Windows Environment for more information.

Russian Character is not displaying Correctly in HTML Attachment

Hi,
We are converting the TRIP Details into HTML Format and sending this as attachment by using the function module 'SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
It is working fine if the Content are in English, But if there is any Russian characters, Junk character is getting display while opening the HTML attachment in the Mail.
While debugging we have checked the HTML Content before sending it to the Function Module SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1, Which is coming correctly in Russian Character.
Kindly suggest is there is any specific setting need to added in HTML.
We are using the CHARSET UTF-8 in the HTML
Then same scenario we have tested in Spanish (ES), which is also displaying correctly.
With Regards,
Subbaraman v

Hi James
Oh~ It perfectly works!!
I've been tried to solve this problem for a long time and
I really appreciate for your help~
