segmentation fault

main_program: An NLS map <ISO-8859-1> is specified, but NLS_LANG is not set. The NLS map must be set to an ICU codepage which is equivalent to the character set specified by NLS_LANG
segmentation fault

Can someone tell me why this problem is occuring.....it occurs many times...sometimes the job works fine but sometimes it gives the above error. Couldn'tt figure out the real problem. Always comes with this nls statement. sometimes if i force compile 2 or 3 times...job runs fine. Is there a permanent solution to it?

NLS_LANG is an environment variable used for database (e.g. Oracle). Although DataStage does not use it, DataStage checks that it is set.

Hi Ray..Can you tell me a workaround for it....this error is so irritating. i am using oracle 11g on windows 2003 server. Some time jobs work fine with one click and sometime i need rerun the job many times. What i need to setup in order to avoid this? always the same error!

There's no workaround. You need to have NLS_LANG set if you're going to communicate Unicode data to/from the database server. End of story.

in the administrator when i see the nls properties of this particular project it is shown as default map name ISO-8859-1 and there is nothing else to set.

on the database side the nls_characterset is UTF8

define a variable $NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 depending upon the language you want to set.
i will prefer at job level variable.
