Hi,

I am working with Japneses Character. When i am trying to insert Japnese data into Oracle 9i Tables for some character sets it is unable to recognise the ending quote with the String and through error
"ORA-01756: quoted string not properly terminated" even though the end quotes exists.

If i add 2 spaces OR any thing of 2 character before the ending quotes then it recognize the ending quotes and execute successfully.

I think i need to make some settings..

I really need help..

Regards
Pulkit

Following is the query...

INSERT INTO AREA(AREA,AREA_NAME,MGR_NAME,CHAIN,CURRENCY_CODE) VALUES(1,'卸売部門','',1,'JPY')

It gives me error for japnese string '卸売部門' but if i put 2 spaces like '卸売部門 ' and try to execute insert it is successfull.

Could it be that the last Japanese character (I don't see it; all I can see are 4 squares) acts like some kind of an "escape" character which prevents ' to be used as enclosing character of this string?

Thank you, it looks much prettier than 4 squares, but I still have no idea what this could be.

Have you tried to execute statement using bind variable? Maybe this is an issue...

Dear Friends,

Thanks a lot for ur comments...I am into a data Migration work and in that the Static data that i am getting from Business people i am populating directly through SQL file having multiple Inserts. Now some data gets inserted and some failes saying "Quoted String not properly terminated"

Can this be Character Set issue... Well i am using

NLS_LANG=JAPANESE.JAPAN.UTF-8

If you feel that the problem can be with character set then suggest what change can i make.

Regards
Pulkit

If you are using that NLS_LANG then it is probably not working, it is not formatted right.

Verify by running this query:

SELECT *
  FROM nls_session_parameters
 WHERE parameter IN ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_TERRITORY');

PARAMETER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VALUE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NLS_LANGUAGE
JAPANESE

NLS_TERRITORY
JAPAN

If it doesn't return the above, then it should be:

export NLS_LANG=JAPANESE_JAPAN.UTF8

Well following is the output from nls_session_parameters table

SELECT *
FROM nls_session_parameters
2 3 WHERE parameter IN ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_TERRITORY');

PARAMETER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VALUE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NLS_LANGUAGE
JAPANESE

NLS_TERRITORY
JAPAN

I think the database settings are OK..

Please suggest.
