Oracle

SQL*Loader-00282 Unable to locate character set handle for character set ID (number).

Cause: SQL*Loader could not find the character set handle for the given character set ID.

Action: The character set ID was obtained from the database server, the SQL*Loader client does not have knowledge of the given character set ID. Possible mismatch of NLS data on the client and server side.

Hi
Can u please tell me how do I match the NLS parameter of client and server. Is it like a possibility that oracle 8.1 client can not load the data in Oracle 7.3 db through SQL Loader.

Thanks & Regards
Vikram

Do you have the NLS_LANG environment variable set? If so, what is its value?

What is the result of "select * from v$nls_parameters" statement?

Hi All
I want to load some data in database tables.I am doing this from client desktop. The client is Oracle 8.1 and the server is oracle 7.3, It gave me following error--
SQL*Loader-282: Unable to locate character set handle for character set ID (0).
How can I write a pl/sql script that can read a | delimited text file (more than one row), and then can insert that data into a database table.I am new to the pl/sql field,So any pointer is highly appreciated.

Thnnks a ton in advance!!!

If you have access to the server (and you've said you have), why don't you do so and load the file using 7.3 SQL*Loader (which would also resolve your problems of this kind).

that is what I have mentioned in the beginning what Error I am getting when using SQL Loader. since client is oracle 8.1 hence I am having only SQLLDR not SQLLDR73. And I am having access for reading and writing a particaular folder of that machine where I can put the text file.

But you said you have access to the server. Run SQL*Loader from there. Copy the file to the server, connect to the server and run it all from there.
