Linux > Export (exp) command

Hi All,

When I run the following command to export the data dump file:

$ exp DEV@ccprod

I get the following message:

Export done in US7ASCII character set and AL16UTF16 NCHAR character set server uses WE8ISO8859P1 character set (possible charset conversion).

The export works, but I need to do the export using the native character set. Same thing happens when I try to import.

Is there a way to force the exp command to use the native character set.

Thanks for your help in advance.

The man page for 'exp' tells me that this is for exponential functions. Are you sure that 'exp' command hasn't been replaced with another binary, additionally installed ? Perhaps you can try the regular - "exp --help" and see what it says. Certainly, if you are not aware, you can always ask your local system administrator for usage.

I think the op is using a database export tool. Which db is not clear, and it also appears the export tool has no notion of user llocale settings <- all of this is a guess.

We need more information to be of any help at all. What db? What is the output of these two commands:
Code:
locale

locale -a
