Re: Error While changing the session parameter NLS_LANG

amitvij78 <me*********@dbforums.comwrote in message news:<34****************@dbforums.com>...
I tried executing the following query.

alter session set NLS_LANG='UTF8';

I got the following error:

ORA-00922: missing or invalid option

Can anybody tell me how to do it?

I tried the following variation.

alter session set NLS_CALENDAR='ROC Official';

got the follwoing error:

ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified

I tried

alter session set NLS_CALENDAR='Gregorian';

This was done successfully.

Please advise me how to correctly execute the first query.

NLS_LANG is an environment variable (Unix) or a registry variable (Winblows)
