Oracle Charset, is it mandatory UTF-8?, Spanish settings?
Hi
We are tryin to install RTC 3, using Oracle as database, our DBAs ask us to use other default charset. Our spanish Oracle default installation has this default configuration values: NLS_CHARACTERSET WE8ISO8859P1 NLS_CALENDAR GREGORIAN NLS_DATE_FORMAT DD/MM/RR NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE SPANISH NLS_SORT SPANISH NLS_TIME_FORMAT HH24:MI:SSXFF NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT DD/MM/RR HH24:MI:SSXFF NLS_TIME_TZ_FORMAT HH24:MI:SSXFF TZR NLS_TIMESTAMP_TZ_FORMAT DD/MM/RR HH24:MI:SSXFF TZR NLS_DUAL_CURRENCY ? NLS_COMP BINARY NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS BYTE NLS_NCHAR_CONV_EXCP FALSE NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16 NLS_RDBMS_VERSION 11.1.0.7.0 Is it posible use AL16UTF16 instead of UTF-8 in RTC? CREATE DATABASE JTS USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY <system> CHARACTER SET UTF-8; Can we have problems with any other configuration setting? Thanks in advance. |
One answer
The recommendation is to use UTF-8 as documented in the infocenter. We have seen issues when other character sets are used.
Thanks, Ginny Hi |
