How to CREATE 11G DB in UTF 8

Hi all,

How to create 11g Database in UTF8 Character set For Chinese and English Support.

In DBCA
Database Character set AL32UTF8, And National Character Set UTF8 is available. How to choose character set which should support from Forms 6i.

Forms6i uses Oracle 8.0.6 client libraries. MetaLink Note 207303.1 lists supported client/server configurations, and the last database version supported with those libraries is Oracle 9.2. The only exception is made for e-Business Suite (Oracle Applications). Therefore, you configuration is not supported.

Anyway, Oracle 8.0.6 does not support AL32UTF8 well. You should select UTF8 as the database character set (not national character set!). You need to select a check box on DBCA interface (possibly unavailable in fast/default installation path) which allows you to see non-recommended character sets.

Thanks Sergiusz.

Here i am able to connect forms 6i with 11g Database without any issue.
only problem is connect with AL32UTF8 DB.

Doc 207303.1 speaks about only network connectivity. can you support your statement +"Anyway, Oracle 8.0.6 does not support AL32UTF8 well"+ providing any document.

Thanks & Regards
