of the destination column. The name of the column is given, along with the actual width of the value, and the maximum allowed width of the column. Note that widths are reported in characters if character length semantics are in effect for the column, otherwise widths are reported in bytes. Action: Examine the SQL statement for correctness. Check source and destination column data types. Either make the destination column wider, or use a subset of the source column (i.e. use substring). Second, you should be aware that the full ORA-12899 message is needed in order for you to get helpful feedback.

If you set that to CHAR rather than the default of BYTE, a VARCHAR2(5) will be allocated enough space to store 5 characters in the database character set (potentially up to 20 bytes) rather than 5 bytes (which could allow just 1 character). Unfortunately, changing the NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS probably won't be terribly helpful if you're relying on the import process to create the table-- the dump file will inherently add the CHAR or BYTE keyword so it would actually issue the statement CREATE TABLE BDATA.Artikel( Key VARCHAR2(3 BYTE) NOT NULL, Name VARCHAR2(60 BYTE) NOT NULL, Abkuerzung VARCHAR2(5 BYTE) NOT NULL ); share|improve this answer answered May 16 '11 at 14:43 Justin Cave 16.2k12944 I have the create table script and ca
