Server Administration :: How To Know Character Set As Single Character Or Multi Character

Sep 26, 2013

how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?

While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".

Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -

ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;

i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set

below are the commands executed by me:

SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252;
SQL> SHUTDOWN;
SQL> STARTUP;
SQL> QUIT;

And its working...

I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Double Quotes In Column Name Can Be Replaced With Alternate Character?

Feb 14, 2012

Any way to replace the Double Quotes used to enclose column names with an alternative character. This is the SQL I have now that Works!

select (case when CUST is null then "/BIC/Z_SUPPLNT" else NM1 end) CMPNTSUPSRCE
from TBL1, TBL2
where "/BIC/Z_MAJVEND"=CUST(+) and Material = '1ABCD456'
order by Material

But would like to do something along these lines below but keep getting error "ORA-00936: missing expression".

select (case when CUST is null then chr(34)||/BIC/Z_SUPPLNT||chr(34) else NM1 end) CMPNTSUPSRCE
from TBL1, TBL2
where chr(34)||/BIC/Z_MAJVEND||chr(34)=CUST(+) and Material = '1ABCD456'

SQL & PL/SQL :: Oracle Database 10g - Data In Column Stored In Different Character Set

Sep 23, 2010

Oracle database version is : 10G.

When we try to query a column from a table the output is shown as "?????". Seems the data in that column is stored in a different character set, which is not recognised while displaying the output. The column size is 35byte.

The nls parameter table shows the character set as "we8mswin1252".

Inserting Character From Extended ASCII Character Set?

Mar 8, 2007

I'm trying to insert a character from the extended ascii character set. Specifically, there's a company that has an accented e (�) in the name. Right now, the company name doesn't have the e at all, accent or no accent. So I'm trying to do an update, something like

update table1 set company_name='blah�" where company='blah'

It runs, but doesn't do the update. Even when I try to forcefully do an insert (instead of an update) I get nowhere; the accented is simply dropped. So the basic question is, how do you insert extended ascii characters into oracle?

Globalization :: Character Encoding - LATIN-1 Character In UTF-8 DB?

Feb 9, 2013

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

30 Character Limit?

Nov 13, 2007

I've written a .net program for inserting blobs into our database, and it works fine, except if the path has more than 30(+) characters. I've read that this is a limitation in oracle, but the actual contents being stored is just the filename, extension, and blob itself, so I'm not actually storing anything more than 30 characters.

Character Encoding In 10g?

Dec 7, 2010

The problem is regarding character encoding.When i am entering Japanese characters in a description form field in a Jsp page and on submit storing the value in the database,its getting stored fine.When i an selecting the value and showing in the result page,then again its properly displaying.But when i am executing the select query in Sql Developer,the values are most probably showing as unicode characters (i am not sure about this though,but at least they are looking like unsupported characters).

Is there any way to store data,such as the select query will also show understandable japanese characters on Sql Developer(or other IDEs)?

i am using Oracle 10g?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Using Character Functions?

May 13, 2010

I would like to use character functions (LPAD, INSTR, SUBSTR, etc) to accomplish what i feel should be rather easy. I would like to take the following character strings:

'ADAM ST #3 S_109640'
'ALBANY AVE #5 & #6 S_AL5&6'
'ALBIN RD #10A S_123318'

And make them

'ADAM ST'
'ALBANY AVE'
'ALBIN RD'

As you can see, it probably boils down to using SUBSTR, INSTR, RTRIM, and LENGTH??
