Globalization :: Migrating Character Data Using A Full Export And Import
Jul 23, 2013
I have a database in my local machine that doesn't support Turkish characters. My NLS_CHARACTERSET is WE8ISO8859P1, It must be changed to WE8ISO8859P9 , since it supports full Turkish characters. I would like to migrate character data using a full export and import and my strategy is as follows:
1- create a full export to a location in network,
2- create a new database in local machine that it's NLS_CHARACTERSET is WE8ISO8859P9 (I would like to change NLS_LANGUAGE and NLS_TERRITORY by the way)
3- and implement full import to newly created database. I 've implemented first step, but I couldn't implement the second step. I 've created the second step by using toad editor by clicking Create -> New Database but I can not connect the new database. I must connect new database in order to perform full import.

I am migrating data from a Solid Database to Oracle, I am using Flat Files to do that.
1.- I download the data to flat files from Solid
2.- I move the files to Oracle server
3.- I upload the data to Oracle
Now, I have done the 90% of the data base, but I have found some tables that has description columns and in this description the users writes enters, so when I try to upload the data to Oracle SQL loader cannot recognize this characters.
Example:
'25','0.','5.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'26','0.','2.','0.','0.','0.','0.','3.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'27','0.','1.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'28','0.','1.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'29','0.','38.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'30','0.','13.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','6.','0.','6.','0.','0.','|SE RECHAZA B20CS50SNW ^M

How can I solve this ?

I am using C++ OCI LIB, to insert some report data from remote OCI client to oracle 11 server. This data is read by another process to create the report.The DB CHARSET is UTF-8. But the report tool expects the data to be ISO08859-1 encoded. So while inserting the data into the database i specify the following LANG and CHARSET for my table colulmn in client:
The TARGET DB CHARSET is UTF-8
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
size_t csid = 871; // UTF-8
OCIAtrSet((void *) bnd1p, (ub4) OCI_HTYPE_BIND,
*(void *)&csid*,
(ub4) 0,
(ub4)OCI_ATTR_CHARSET_ID, errhp);
This solution works for almost every case of ASCII and Extended ASCII Charest but we are facing issues if we have few specific characters to be inserted.f we are trying to insert single beta character [β] through client, the data goes empty to the column.
Beta Character details:
DEC OCT HEX BIN Symbol Description
223 337 DF 11011111 ß Latin small letter sharp s - ess-zed
DB Output after insert single β:
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
But if the string is *"ββ"* everything work fine:
DB Output for "ββ":
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
DFDF

IMPDP-ing a dump file that someone has handed me over into Oracle XE results in special characters, i.e. Umlauts, being messed up.
In a hex editor, the dump file shows a) the token WE8MSWIN1252 near the beginning, but b) Umlauts obviously being encoded in DOS 850, for example "König" is encoded as 4b 94(!) 6e 69 67. Does this prove that the dump file is badly formatted and that I have to resign myself to the complicated approach mentioned at the end of [URL]...

We are trying to load some xml files via
sqlldr user/pswd@xe control='C:xmlldr.ctl' data='listoffiles.dat'
where xmlldr.ctl is the following:
load data
CHARACTERSET WE8ISO8859P1
replace
into table LOADER_CTG_PROTOCOL
(
xmlfile lobfile(nct_code) terminated by eof,
nct_code char(15) "substr(:nct_code,1,11)",
created_dt sysdate
)
I was playing with different CHARACTERSET, but some special characters e.g. "greater than or equal" do not get loaded/displayed correctly in the database. Also tried changing NLS_LANG registry key and following some advices in the Oracle doc

Source Database: AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
Target Database: AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
From the source database, the chinese characters are stored in some schema table. From the csscan result, there are convertiable, truncate, data lossy character. So, I have tried to use exp/imp for the conversion. However, all chinese characters are invalided and cannot be read anymore. How can I convert them from US7ASCCI to UTF8 database?
Also, I have tried build up another database with AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950. The exp/imp is used for conversion again. The chinese characters are readable in AL32UTF8 database.
- source database (US7ASCII)
export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
export LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
exp userid='/ as sysdba' file=export.dmp full=y
- target database (AL32UTF8)
export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
export LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
imp userid='/ as sysdba' file=export.dmp full=y ignore=y
Result:
from US7ASCII to AL32UTF8:
the chinese characters cannot be read
from US7ASCII to ZHT16MSWIN950:
the chinese characters cannot be read
from ZHT16MSWIN950 to AL32UTF8:
the chinese characters can be read
How can I convert the chinese character from US7ASCCI to UTF8 database?

I have a table. It's name is INSTITUTION. It has a NUMBER INS_ID and NVARCHAR2(50) INS_NAME . INS_NAME can contain Turkish characters, such as "ğ,ü,ş,ç,ö". According to business logic, there can not be a repetition on the INS_NAME.User will enter institution name from a textbox in ASP.NET , and I check this name in database from c sharp code, if there is no repetition, we will add this record.
The problem is; when user enter a instition name that contains Turkish character, there is a duplication. If there is a instition name is *"su işleri"* , the both query; SELECT * FROM INSTITUTION WHERE INS_NAME = *'su işleri'*; and SELECT * FROM INSTITUTION WHERE INS_NAME = *'su isleri'*; returns no result, even though there it is.But if instition name is "oracle corporation" (there is no Turkish character) it query successfully. I have the same problem in Toad for Oracle 11.5.1.2. When I query database from toad SELECT * FROM INSTITUTION, the phrase *"su işleri"* has appeared. But when I query SELECT * FROM INSTITUTION WHERE INS_NAME = *'su işleri'*; , there is again no result.When I connect oracle database directly and perform the query SELECT * FROM INSTITUTION , the phrase *"su isleri"* (not *"su işleri"* ) has appeared.
Here are the language settings of the database:
National Language Support
National Language Parameter Value
NLS_CALENDAR______________GREGORIAN
NLS_CHARACTERSET__________WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_COMP__________________BINARY
NLS_CURRENCY______________TL
NLS_DATE_FORMAT__________DD/MM/RRRR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE________TURKISH
NLS_DUAL_CURRENCY_________YTL
[code]....

We have an existing db (10.2.0.4.0) and forms (11.1.2.1.0) application, that we're trying to extend to support Chinese characters. We're looking to add some unicode (nvarchar2) columns to existing tables, rather than converting the whole db charset. I've pasted my environment settings below. What I've found so far in trying to create a local (ie. running the form in Builder with local weblogic running) test form, is that I can insert the chars ok (using plsql developer) and the test form can display them correctly, but cannot write them back to the database. They appear as upside down question marks in any records the form has created.
Env variables:NLS_LANG = .UTF8 Database:NLS_CHARACTERSET = WE8MSWIN1252NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET = AL16UTF16 1)
So, how to get the form to write the characters back into the database correctly? 2) The chinese chars will only be relevant to a few forms inside the app, are there any settings local to the form that will enable unicode support, rather than setting at OS level. ie, an alter session, or equivalent? 3) Oracle Reprts doesn't appear to have an nchar datatype unlike Forms, is there anyway to get Reports (generating PDFs), to include Chinese?
I now have the chars writing back to the db ok. If you do it via an INSERT statement from inside the form, it doesn't work. It appears the value is sent to the db in the normal charset rather than the national charset, and it's written as a question mark. If you pass the value from the form into a back end stored proc though (which does the insert) it works okay.

We should migrate our 10gR2 single-instance database with conventional file system to a two-node 11gR2 RAC on ASM (on same Windows Server platform…).
How can I migrate my production database using data pump? I have full data pump export from target but I don’t know how to import, whether the scheme after scheme, full import, do I need to first create manually tablespaces on destination, whether to exclude the index, constraint, statistics?
