  Character Set migration Oracle 11 g - Oracle Community

• Changing the character set in the database 11G

  Running Windows 2008 Server 64-bit and Oracle 11 g (V 11.2.0.1.0). I would like to change my default character set when installing from 11 G to CS AL32UTF8.
  
  I read the utility Guide and Guide Support for globalization (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28298/ch11charsetmig.htm#g1011430), but none of these documents shows how you can effectively change everything / the character set of the migration. I would do this using the export and import utilities since this seems to be the most popular recommendation. But I'm really not sure of the procedure to follow to change the CS. For example, should I first export and then import then run the CSCHANGE script that is described in the globalization support Guide?
  
  I would be grateful any guidance on how to actually change the character set to AL32UTF8 and all documentation that explains not only the concepts, but the STEPS of HOW this can be done. Thank you, J

  Yes that's correct.

• Is it possible to set the character set to the instance level?

  Hi all
  
  I have some confusion.
  
  means my database character set AL32UTF8.
  
  and I want tio character set of instance is WE8MSWIN1252
  
  He is liable to set the character set to the instance level?
  
  Please answer Yes or no and why?
  
  
  
  
  Thank you and best regards,

  Instance is memory process structure and background.

  Character set is for the data and the data is stored in the database that differentiate the instance.

  So the answer is no.

  It seems that you have an XMLType column based on a pattern of failure revalidation.

  It's strange, but fortunately, the error has nothing to do with the database character set.

  Just change your NLS session parameters:

  ALTER session set nls_numeric_characters = ".";

  and try again.

• change the character set

  Hi all
  
  We use:
  
  Oracle Application on the Enterprise Linux 4 update 5 AS version 11.5.10.1.
  Version of database is 10.2.0.3 with character EE8MSWIN1250.
  
  We have the plan to migrate from this set of characters Unicode (AL32UTF8).
  Is there something specific in this, or we can just use the standard migration of oracle to the unicode character database.
  
  Do we need to do something on the application tier of the Oracle Applications, or we can simply migrate database to Unicode characters,
  and the app will be good work after the next startup db and app level.
  
  Thank you

• Error ORA-12712 when changing the character set AL32UTF8 to nls

  Hello
  
  It is strongly advised to use the AL32UTF8 database character set when ever a database is used with our XML capabilities. The database character set in the installed base is WE8MSWIN1252. To use XML DB functionality, I need to change it to AL32UTF8. But, when I try to do that, I get ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of the old character set. Is there a way to fix this?
  
  Thanks in advance,
  Divya.

  Hello

  a change of we8mswin1252 to al32utf8 is not directly possible. This is because al32utf is not a binary superset of we8mswin1252.

  There are 2 options:
  -use any export and import
  -Use of the altar in a kind of limited

  Depends on the method, you can choose the characters in the database, is that only ASCII then the other can work, in other cases, one is necessary.

  It is all described in Note 260192.1support, "replacing the NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8 / UTF8 (Unicode). Get on-site support/metalink.

  You can also read the chapters about it in the Guide of globalization: [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/ch11charsetmig.htm#g1011430] change characterset.

• build the new database through scripts must understand Spanish character sets.

  Hello gurus,
  I need to some simple tips, a good chance for some quick points for you.
  I've never built a database to understand any different other than the U.S. English character set. I now have to build a database that will be used for characters Spanish-keyboards, etc. But I will use English to install 11g software. I just want to be able to show the Spanish characters in the data for the names of clients.
  I will create the database with scripts that I did to make the standard model for data files, control files, etc..
  Then I import in a dump that I did and that was done with American English character sets.
  The system is 11g (11.2.0.3.0) on Linux Enterprise Server 5.8.
  I thought I'd use the AL32UTF8 character set, but I'm not sure where to use them.
  My original test showed no Spanish characters for names of customers as the "tilda" or "sueano" (excuse my spelling). But in this case I did the exceptional for Spanish, I used only the construction of standard American English (no change in the file init.ora or original database create script).
  
  How can I adjust my settings file for the initial creation of the database model to be able to understand the Spanish character set and still be able to import my dump error-free file.
  
  EXAMPLE of a build script:
  
  CREATE DATABASE mynewdb
  The USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY sys_password
  The USER IDENTIFIED BY system_password SYSTEM
  LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo01.log') SIZE in the 100M.
  GROUP 2 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo02.log') SIZE in the 100M.
  GROUP 3 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo03.log') SIZE 100 M
  MAXLOGFILES 5
  MAXLOGMEMBERS 5
  MAXLOGHISTORY 1
  MAXDATAFILES 100
  CHARACTER SET US7ASCII
  NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL16UTF16
  
  If I replace to AL32UTF8 AL16UTF16 NATIONAL CHARACTER SET, will it work to show the Spanish characters?
  
  Sorry for the long-winded question, any advice will be great.
  
  Fortunately,
  Shawn

  Hello
  the national character sets is for the column as nvarchar types not for normal varchar data types. So if your dump file contains column types, you also need to set. The character set is for normal column as a varchar types. The use of unicode is best practice if you use the multiel language, but keep in mind that multibyte character set can be a problem when importing because varchar2 (10) means byte 10 and not 10 characters, so mistakes as an identifier for a long time may occur when importing.
  You can create the database.

  See this documentation:
  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28298/ch2charset.htm

  You can use a like WE8MSWIN1252 character set which covers the Spanish also (like many, I know) and a superset of us7ascii

  PL indicate how you plan to upgrade. If you are about to upgrade directly on-site using DBUA scripts or migration, the characters will not change as part of the upgrade. The character set can be changed if you create a new 11.2.0.3 empty database and then perform an upgrade via export/import.

  Oracle recommends to use the AL32UTF8 (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25494/create001.htm#ADMIN13343) characters, but if your application does not expect never to use any characters that do not appear in US7ASCII, you can continue to use this game.

• Character set of database and the national character set?

  Hi all
  
  I'm sorry if the question is stupid.
  
  why we need a so-called "national character set"?, I think it's important to keep the consistency of the character set, and this thing "national character set" really confuses me.
  
  in my opinion, if you are in English speaking countries, use ASCII coding such as your database character set, if not, just use you UNICODE, everything should be good, why?
  
  Thanks in advance.

  For Oracle Database, database character set is for the data types CHAR, VARCHAR2 and national character set to NCHAR, NVARCHAR2, and NCLOB and CLOB. Please read http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/ch6unicode.htm#CACHCAHF.

• Data loss while placing the dump in the database character set al32utf8

  Dear all,
  At the present time our application with data in the database to the character set TH8TISASCII so we are able to visualize the THAI language. Now, we got a new requirement in that, "we must support bothTHAI & CHINESE languages.
  so, we created the new instance and db with character set AL32UTF8. IAM lose some data (which has the THAI characters) and get the following error message during the import of discharge in the new database character set AL32UTF8.
  
  Error Msg: IMP-00019: rejected due to the ORACLE 12899 error line
  IMP-00003: ORACLE error 12899
  ORA-12899: value too large for column 'ESUPPLYUAT '. "" "" ORGP_ITEMS '. "" SHORT_NAME' (population: 36, maximum: 25).
  Is there any character set other than AL32UTF8 that supports Chinese and Thai languages?
  Otherwise it is any otherway to import data in the database with character set AL32UTF8 without losing data?
  
  
  Please provide the solution for this problem.
  
  Thank you

  You can first create the table (using lines of script or creating imp table = n), expand the column, and then import the data with ignored errors (imp ignore = y)
