All,

I just amended the Wiki (OracleSetup) with the following (last part):
I did try with the defaults but that resulted in ?? instead of a accented character. Modifying directly in the database using sqlplus went OK but in the webinterface those accented characters went back to ??. So the problem was with Apache<->database Setting various NLS_LANG parameters and restarting Apache resulted in accented characters when the third parameter matched with the database characterset. Other combinations should work too as long as the database is a superset of the clientside. Setting the clientside (apache) to the same as the database is the easiest way, certainly when both apache and the database are on the same server.

Regards,

Joop

   Encoding problem with mod_perl2

(for RedHat <http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/RedHat> El5, it can be added to /etc/sysconfig/httpd which is sourced by /etc/init.d/httpd)

(remark: that didn't work for me, it does when set to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252 which is also my database charset!, see also: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm)
