Wrongly Euro symbols stored in the WE8IOS8895P1 database

Oracle support document 341676.1 says:
to 8i default NLS_LANG to an installation of windows (!) client has been
WE8IOS8895P1, which is actually incorrect, the correct value is WE8MSWIN1252.
Because of this old bug, we have an old 9.2.0.8 database running with the WE8IOS8895P1 character set, where the Euro symbol is stored as ASCII 128 in some 12,000 records even if this symbol is not taken in charge by the character set. It was no problem as long as all the customers used the NLS_LANG evil as mentioned in the aforementioned document. We now want to migrate to 11.1.0.7 with the WE8MSWIN1252 character set by using import/export. Customers will be updated as well.
After importation, the code for the changes of the Euro-symboles in 191 ASCII which is the code for a reverse questionmark. As WE8MSWIN1252 is a superset of WE8IOS8895P1 are there opportunities to keep ASCII 128 symbols not supported with import/export, because in a WE8MSWIN1252 database, they would be quite right?

You could turn the former first base of characterset WE8ISO8859P1 to WE8MSWIN1252 before export, use ALTER DATABASE [db_name] CHARACTER SET new_character_set;

Otherwise you should set NLS_LANG to export and import WE8ISO8859P1, which makes the im - and export use the original settings. After import on the NLS_LANG WE8MSWIN1252 and it should work.

  • Target of hyperlink connects since the Outlook file in the Oracle database mail

    Greetings.
    Lack of permissions, I can't create text file on the UNIX server.
    This will not be changed.
    I saved the file in the Oracle 11 g database.

    I want to send e-mail to PL/SQL with attached file.
    No UNIX don't scripts at all.

    It's a big file.
    Thought has crossed my mind.

    Can I send e-mail to PL/SQL with a hyperlink that connects to the file that is stored in the Oracle database?
    The target of the link is a file stored in the Oracle database.

    Did anyone done this before?

    Let me know your ideas.

    Thank you.

    Can be done using UTL_SMTP or more recent UTL_MAIL.

    Attachments to emails are just that - the content of the file is attached to the body of the mail. Mail arrives at its destination, the mail reader recognizes the attachment and allows it to be saved to disk (or open/read).

    It's standard stuff... See MIME for more details on how to build a body of message with attachments.

    Yes. You need a web server that has been configured with Oracle "+ access +"-the default is using the Apache Oracle server which includes a module called mod_plsql. This module allows the web browser to use a URL that refers to a procedure from PL/SQL web enabled in a specific database schema - and pass parameters (as part of the URL query string) to the proceedings.

    You can also use Oracle EPG (Extended procedure gateway according to me, is what does the acronym). This provides a web server directly within the Oracle instance using Oracle XDB (integrated database of XML). It also has a module of type mod_plsql which provides that a web interface (via http) enabled PL/SQL procedures.

    This procedure can be a procedure "+ document download. Oracle provides a system procedure called WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file ()+ you can use inside this active web PL/SQL procedure. This will return the contents of the blob/clob as a 'file' in the web browser.

    For example, a download web-enabled simplistic procedure will look something like this:

    create or replace procedure downloadFile( fileName varchar2 ) is
            b       blob;
            mimeType varchar2(50);
    begin
            select
                file_content, mime_type  into b, mimeType
            from my_documents where file_name = fileName;
    
            OWA_UTIL.mime_header( mimeType, false );
            HTP.p('Content-Length: ' || DBMS_LOB.getlength(b));
            OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
            WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file( b );
    end;
    

    The URL will look like this:

    http://my-webserver.my-domain.com:7777/pls/ora/scott.downloadfile?filename=somefile.doc
    

    where:
    Scott.DownloadFile = name of the PL/SQL procedure
    filename = somefile.doc = name values of the parameter to pass to the procedure

  • Huge table with PDF (1.4 TB) be stored outside the database

    We have a table with BLOB where a PDF one stored. Now, we want to bring these data from the database (backup reaseans etc..).

    Any solution? Maybe a total another data store - stuff 'BIG DATA '?

    Thanks - regards

    Oliver

    If some give me a solution for a way to store PDF files outside the database.

    If you want to store the PDF file outside the database, then there are usually two approaches.

    (1) in the database, there is a table that stores the name of the file and the location on disk of the PDF. The written application the PDF file in the file system and then updates the database with the location and the name of this PDF file. If the application must Access the PDF, it looks up info in the database and then retrieve this file. The application must be able to read and write to the disk outside the database.

    (2) use such BFILE as mentioned previously.

    In both cases, your PDF documents is stored outside the database, but in my opinion, this does not eliminate the need for backups. If these PDF are lost, and there is no backup, then the data are lost. Because its outside of the database, a database backup backs up only data. The backup may be different and however different backup method is used. But I've seen cases where the db backup was performed at a given time and the binary backup was done at another time and restoration, there were inconsistencies that needed reconciliation.

  • Replace the missing paragraph Euro symbol

    Hi guys,.

    For a report, I have to use a specific font which is a bit old and isn't the EURO symbol. I get the missing symbol 'rose' and it's too much time to change one by one to 40 pages. How can I replace just the specific symbol with a different font. I tried searching for text, but in fact there is no missing font is just a character 'in' this font.

    Any help or ideas?

    Thank you!

    You want to use the glyph of edition tab > find/replace dialog box.

    The following illustration shows what I've done. I took a text block in PostScript Type 1 old Melior font containing a glyph in the position of the Euro character. (I had copied the text of a font OpenType that contains the Euro character and applied the Melior police.)

    Now, the character appears in pink did yours. Select the character of rose and the copy.

    Enter the name of your font at the top and stick the pink character, as shown. Select the GID/CID since your police is not Unicode.

    Choose a Unicode (like Adobe Minion Pro) font as font substitution. In the change glyph open the glyphs Panel menu, select Show: money to find the Euro glyph. He appears as shown.

    Use the command find/replace to replace the character.

  • Date picker date is not stored in the database

    Hi Frends,

    In my cutom OAF page, I use a messageTextInputBean. I put the data type of this bean as Date (to act as a date picker). I have attached an attribute of the view to the bean (date selector) text.

    View attached attribute is also a type Date.

    If a date is choose and committed the transaction, I get null value of the attribute method of the bean

    I used the below codes in AM

    oracle.jbo.domain.Date expiration_date = (oracle.jbo.domain.Date) row.getAttribute ("ExpirationDate");

    ........

    ...........

    Between the code is here...

    linesrow.setAttribute ("ExpirationDate", expiration_date);

    Apply();

    Could someone suggest how to solve this problem, get the date that is entered in...

    Kind regards

    Tarun,

    Can you just try for does not the date stored in the attribute to display and check if the value is going to the database. It would be possible that code fixed the null value by mistake.

  • Heavy binary files must be stored in the database?

    I was asked an interesting question: If a database contains all the data? Or large binary files must be stored in the file system?

    Example of large binary files: videos or PDFs heavy (+ 200 MB).

    With an old aspx web app (1.1) I tried to open a 200 MB pdf file stored as a BLOB in a base of Oracle 11 g and it has run out of memory.

    However, same asp.net web application had no problem to open the same pdf file stored in the file system on a server. It could be that maybe there is some way to open fields heavy blobs with asp.net.

    For reasons of integrity, I say that all data must be stored in the database, but my cases described showed me that maybe it's not the way.

    SQL Server allows the content of the columns of varbinary (max) to be stored on the file system, maybe there is something similar in Oracle?

    With an old aspx web app (1.1) I tried to open a 200 MB pdf file stored as a BLOB in a base of Oracle 11 g and it has run out of memory.

    It could be that maybe there is some way to open fields heavy blobs with asp.net.

    Depends entirely on how to open BLOB.
    A simple way is enter any value in table (like getArray()). It can be risky when there are great values.
    More sophisticated is to read in chunks.
    In environments such as Java or ASP.net programming should be operable methods BLOB as a stream of data. In Java, it is ResultSet.getBinaryStream)
    You can spend this additional flow, for example the browser connection. It will read the BLOB value into small pieces (or 64K) and pass it to the browser or whatever the customer.

    I had to go back and look at some documentation on our application server. If these steps do not work for you, you may need to click on 'Help' in your business manager and search for 'DADDY' or "Database Access Descriptor".

    According to these steps:
    1. connect to Oracle Enterprise Manager (http://finserv1:1810) - this would be the name of your server and port
    2. click on FIN_Midtier_1.finserv1 - this would be the name of your application server
    3. click on HTTP_Server
    4. click on Administration
    5. click on properties of PL/SQL (link at the top: application server: FIN_Midtier_1.finserv1 > HTTP_Server > mod_plsql Services)
    6. scroll the page to the Section of DAD
    7. click the Create button (right part of the screen)
    8. Select Type of DADDY of the general and click on Next (step 1 of 2)
    9. start to fill in the information of connectivity for DAD
    10 to precede the name of DAD or a location to a / pls in this example: / pls/findadgen
    11. username: enter the user name where the stored procedure (READ_PDF)
    12 password: enter the password for the user name that you just entered.
    13 Connect String is the database you want the DAD to connect to (the READ_PDF where)
    14. the connection string format is: TNSFormat because the connection string is resolved through tnsnames.ora
    15 get the language NLS value by running the following query against the schema/database this DAD is to be setup for:

    select value, parameter
      from nls_database_parameters
     where parameter in ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_TERRITORY','NLS_CHARACTERSET');
    
    VALUE                                      PARAMETER
    ---------------------------------------- ------------------------------
    AMERICAN                                 NLS_LANGUAGE
    AMERICA                                  NLS_TERRITORY
    WE8ISO8859P1                             NLS_CHARACTERSET
    

    Enter the value in the form: _.< nls_characterset="">
    In our example, we have: AMERICAN_AMERICA. WE8ISO8859P1

    16. default Page: enter the name of the procedure that will be called if it is not specified in the URL. In our example, we use the name of the procedure: read_pdf
    17 Authentication Mode: the default value of Basic
    18. then click on Next (step 2 of 4) at the bottom right
    19. click on next again (step 3 of 4)
    20. click OK (step 4 or 4)
    21. your done. Don't forget DAD or any changes made to the DAD will not take effect until the server is restarted. Take the necessary steps to get this done.

    We then get an image with the chapters of dads who shows a name or location of/pls/findadgen, the user name, connect the string and status (green arrow - maximum)
