    import

    1. I am using Oracle 8.1.7.4 64 bit version.
    2. I am trying to perform an import a schema into a database which was created using UTF8 Characterset
    3. The export file database was created with WE8ISO8859P1

    During the import activity, i got an error as following:

    Connected to: Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning option
    JServer Release 8.1.7.4.0 - 64bit Production

    IMP-00016: required character set conversion (type 31 to 871) not supported
    IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully

    How to fix this error?
    Cheers!

    The export environment charachter set must match the import environment set. So, set your NLS_LANG to UTF8, re-do the export and try it again.

    export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1

    execute above command before import.
