unicode characters not transferred correctly to mysql from oracle

905862Dec 17 2011 — edited Dec 21 2011

Hi,

We are transferring data from Oracle11g to MySQL5.5 using DG4ODBC. Data is getting transferred successfully to MySQL, but the Characters like Russian, Chinese etc. are not transferred succesfully. They are shown as ? in MySQL database and even with GUI tools like sqldevelopper or squirrel.

Oracle Uses NLS_Character set is AL32UTF8 and MySQL database is UTF8.

Oracle version is 11.1.0.6.0
MySQL is 5.5.
unixODBC 2.2.11, comes from redhat for RHEL 5

I tried setting HS_LANGUAGE=american_america.al32utf8, but no luck.

Can someone please give hint to configure gateway initialization parameters or some other configuration which is required to support all language characters during transfer.
