In your 8.1.6 database your characterset and national characterset are
not identical.


You can find out what they are from v$nls_database_parameters.
Likely your national characterset is some UTF characterset and your
normal characterset is an 8 byte characterset.
You need to use the CONVERT function to convert the string from one
characterset to another.
