Re: error transporting a tablespace from 8i to 9i?

It looks like your 8i database is defined with national char set of WE8ISO8859P1 and your target is defined with AL16UTF16 as national char set. They have to match if you want to transport tablespace.

See in metalink:
Note:66320.1 Subject: Changing the Database Character Set or the Database National Character Set

work around? Short of destroying all our 8i databases and recreating them to match the 9i standards(since the 9i ones cant use what is in 8i).
