Re: ORA-17059

Hi, Sybrand

The error message says "Fail to convert to internal representation". What I really want to know is, fail to convert [what] to internal representation.
I only find that ORA-17059 is a TTC adapter exception, and no other further information could be found from the net.

So I can only guess that client and server use different character set, and at some point Oracle failed to convert one character set to the other.

But how could this happen ? The character set used in server is US7ASCII, and none of those NLS parameters are set in the client environment. Besides, the client and server stay on the same Solaris8 box.

Could you please kindly tell me what may cause this ORA-17059 error ?

Thanks alot.

Harry
