Oracle数据库在执行ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET时,会返回ORA-12717错误表示:不允许在数据库中包含NCLOB、NCHAR或NVARCHAR2 数据时执行此操作。可以通过查找是否存在包含有这几种数据类型的表或列来确认是否有此类问题。

官方解释

ORA-12717警告表明,在执行ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET语句时,存在NCLOB、NCHAR或NVARCHAR2 数据。当包含这些类型的数据时,该语句将失败。

常见案例

假设我们有一个表格,它含有一个NCHAR类型字段。现在,当我们尝试执行以下语句时会出现ORA-12717错误:

SQL> ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL32UTF8;

ORA-12717:不允许在数据库中包含NCLOB,NCHAR或NVARCHAR2数据时执行此操作

正常处理方法及步骤

要解决这个问题,我们需要删除表中的NCHAR字段,然后再次执行ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET语句:

SQL> ALTER TABLE table_name DROP COLUMN column_name;

SQL> ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL32UTF8;
