## Database

Oracle

## Description

Oracle’s `NLS_LANG` parameter sets the language, territory, and character set that the iProcess Engine uses to communicate with the Oracle database. The iProcess Engine requires that `NLS_LANG` uses an 8-bit character set.

## Node-Cluster

`NLS_LANG` must be set to the same value on the master server and on each slave server.

## Procedure

To set `NLS_LANG`, complete the following steps:

| 1. | Log in as the user (root, iProcess Files-install Owner, or iProcess Schema-install Owner`)`, see iProcess Engine Architecture for more information) who will run the installer.

| 2. | Set the `NLS_LANG` environment variable to use an 8-bit character set component (`charset`).

| 3. | If you are using a TNS connection, make sure that the character set component (`charset`) of the `NLS_LANG` environment variable for the Oracle client matches the character set component of the `NLS_LANG` setting on the Oracle database.

The format of the `NLS_LANG` string is: `NLS_LANG =` `language_territory.charset`

## Example

`export NLS_LANG=American_America.WE8ISO8859P1`
