Take a look in to oracle documentation.
So then why do we have parameters like NLS_LANGUAGE?
I am using ALTER SESSION SET NLS_LANGUAGE = SPANISH; it says "session altered". But the server messages remains the same in English. I mean if I say ROLLBACK after this command, it gives "Rollback Complete"...it must have given that in Spanish right?
Go to Registry.There HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -->SOFTWARE-->ORACLE-->where ever u will find NLS_LANG u can use SPANISH and all your messages will be in spanish.
Note:For English we use MAERICAN_AMERIA but i don't know what will be used for spanish.
All the people who are offering solutions are doing it on a volunteer basis. I expect there is a filtering effect - they respond to the questions that they are interested in or which can be handled without doing any special research. If someone out there already knows the answer to your question and can spare a minute to type it in, that's good for you. But if someone has to do special research to answer your question it might as well be you. If it is someone else then it would be only because they are interested in the question too and want to trust the results.
Perhaps the question just isn't interesting enough to guru class.
After a short research I found this:
To see server messages in a language you have set in NLS_LANGUAGE parameter, you need appropriate files in the ORACLE_HOME\RDBMS\MESG directory. These files use convention <product_id><language_abbrev>.MSB.
If you don't have appropriate files there, you'll see the messages in English. I guess you need specify Spanish during Oracle install to have the files there.
