We have two database servers. One back-up server running NT ( ORACLE 7.3 ) and the other running HP - UNIX (ORACLE 8 ) in production.
We have been able to import / export information from NT to UNIX using IMPORT/EXPORT UTILITIES bundled with ORACLE 7.3 for NT without any loss of accentuation.
The problem happens when we try doing the same using IMPORT/EXPORT UTILITIES for ORACLE 8. Everytime we do an Import/Export from whichever server to each other executing ORACLE 8 UTILITIES at the Unix server all the accentuation in table contents is lost (i.e. '?' instead of 'Ç').
The strangest is that when we export a correctly accentuated table from ORACLE 8 (i.e: customer ), drop the table from the database and then import it back from file .dmp, the accentuation is also lost.
What´s the problem ? Is there a BUG for IMPORT / EXPORT for UNIX ?
Obs.: The both databases have the same character set. ( WE8ISO5589P1 ). Received on Mon Sep 14 1998 - 20:48:22 CEST
