Hi,

Which DBMS are you using?
Which options do you have set to the webMethods database?

Best regards,

Hi Gerardo,

thanks a lot for your time,

my database is Oracle 10g, and i resolved this issue as show below.

In SQL Plus, determine if the database is unicode by typing the following Select statement:

select * from NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS

The result should return NLS_CHARACTERSET and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET of UTF-8 or UTF-16, or AL32UTF8 or ALI6UTF16, or not unicode.

If this is not the case, recreate the Oracle database with one of these character sets

Thanks,
