Configuring for Multi-byte Character Sets
If you are using multi-byte character sets on the Oracle server, then on the Windchill server machine (where the Oracle client is installed), the NLS_LANG environment variable must be set to match the operating system language setting.
For example, on a Japanese Windows client, set the NLS_LANG variable to the following:
JAPANESE_JAPAN.JA16SJIS
For additional information about language setting options, see the Oracle installation documentation.
