Fetching Japanese characters from Oracle database

user12028119Feb 23 2010 — edited Feb 24 2010

Hi,

my developer trying to fetch Japanese characters in a perl script from an oracle database using DBI->Connect()
Without setting any environment varaibles, I am getting “????????????” instead of Japanese font.

When he set env variables NLS_LANG, ORA_NLS, ORA_NLS33, ORA_NLS32, the script errors out saying :
DBI->connect failed: ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified (DBD: login failed)

Can someone suggest how to proceed in this?
