we have to migrate data from 11.1.0.6.0 to 11.2.0.1.0
Version : 11.1.0.6.0 character set : WE8MSWIN1252
Version : 11.2.0.1.0 character set : AL32UTF8
Any hints with which we can go.
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?
There are two application servers we have, one is windows based with 10g and linux based 11gr2. Our main login form throwing error message in linux server 'ora-12703 this character set conversion is not supported'. The same coding form in 10g running without any problem. Both application servers accessing the same oracle db server 11gr2.

So Here
Ã- should be replaced by i
HÃ-re - I need value Hire(actual value) from the filed.
Ã- this has written into file instead of i
In database i have the following

I tried this
select convert('HÃ-re','UTF8') from dual

I have written a stored procedure that has started returning the error:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
call p_glpost('DSTUK', 'L', '2008-01-01', '2008-01-01', '2011-02-18', 1, 1, 1, 0, 'Hi there')

06502. 00000 - "PL/SQL: numeric or value error%s"
I can't seem to find a tool that will let me step into the actual stored procedure line by line to see where the error occurs. It mentions line 173, which seems to be a red-herring, as line 173 is simply one of the 'END IF' lines within this block:

elsif r_wip.transtype = r_dist.transtype THEN

Tell me if it is possible to trace through a SP, and which tool is best (I am trying to use Oracle SQL Developer).
I got a string in the form 1+2+4.If we write select 1+2+4 from dual;then we get o/p as 7.but the same thing iam trying to do in a bit of pl/sql program by passing the string 1+2+4 value to a number variable as below.
COUNT_TASK := TO_NUMBER(TASK6_STATUS);
TASK6_STATUS value is 1+2+4 (this thing i got by replacing the string and lots of stuff) but i need the result after adding these 3 numbers in the string. and i declare COUNT_TASK as NUMBER;and i am very well aware that it gives me the error ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
how to add these numbers in my program to get the result 7.
1 error has occurred ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
I get the above error when I try to compare the below dates in a Pl/sql process in APEX environment.
Is there a work around for it? or (to_char(V_SERVFROM,'mm/dd/yyyy')) != (to_char(:P29_SERVFROM,'mm/dd/yyyy'))
got this Errormessage "ORA-12713: Character data loss in NCHAR/CHAR conversion" during a rman backupjob! How can I fixed it?

View 3 Replies View RelatedCurrently my oracle database character set is we8mswin1252 and it is only containing English data as well as spatial data (which is in English of course). I would like to change the Database character set so it could accept Arabic characters.
I have checked the below command on a test DB and it worked fine, but I want to know if it's recommended as a best practice when changing the character set to accept arabic and this won't corrupt my old entered Data ?
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
STARTUP RESTRICT
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE AR8MSWIN1256

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've a question regarding difference of character sets, while taking a export(logical backup) of database on directly to server(linux RHEL 2.1 AS) and export on a client (windows xp prof machine, where only a oracle 9i client is installed). On server it seems to fine and okay, but on client node i'm getting following error for almost all tables.
EXP-00091: Exporting questionable statistics.
My question is :
[1] Is it creating any sort of problem, if later on i import the data which was taken from client node.
[2] Why there is a difference(marginal) in dump(.dmp) file size.
[3] Is there any way to overcome it, or it is the natural behave of it. Means not a problem.
[4] If i'm using a long or blob as datatype for some of my table,is they have any problem if i persist like above.
Additional Information about character sets On server node :

We have Oracle 10g and user trying to Insert following in one of our table field and getting error:

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?
I have one string 'SWAP_20120224_MEGAMART_MAR_Sales.csv'
I want to get the string between second underscore and third underscore i.e. 'MEGAMART'

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;

I have a file which i am loading , the last column is being loaded with special character which looks like sqare shape character for all the rows.How can i prevent it to load as it is not present in the file
data in file
Department|2|Tranport for London|Rail & Underground|ER|ER|ER|ER|ER|ER|555555555|Owner 8|8
the data once loaded for the last column on which is for above example last column value 8 will be loaded with 8 and square share character.
If i have a CSV file that is in the following format
"fd!","sdf","dsfds","dsfd",
"fd!","asdf","dsfds","dsfd",
"fd","sdf","rdsfds","dsfd",
"fdd!","sdf","dsfds","fdsfd",
"fd!","sdf","dsfds","dsfd",
"fd","sdf","tdsfds","dsfd",
"fd!","sdf","dsfds","dsfd",
Is it possible to exclude any row where the first column has an exclamation mark at the end of the string.
i.e. it should only load the following rows
"fd","sdf","rdsfds","dsfd",
"fd","sdf","tdsfds","dsfd",

1. Is the above import operation is supported?
2. If yes , which is actually causing the problem?
3. How to rectify this problem? - any solution or workarounds?
4. What should I check in both the Oracle instances - any specific parameters or configurations

In the above mentioned data file, records has multiple special characters like '°','¶' ,'-'.
All these special characters have some meaning.
eg: '°' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -1
'¶' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -0.1
what changes need to be made in loader utility for the same? Also, will there be any change in the utility if I am using higher version of oracle?
