Hi Jay, now why would you do such a silly thing? (nothing like getting salt rubbed into your wounds, is there? ;-) Sorry about the (mild) tease. On the assumption that your characterset was we8iso8859p1 the files you may have lost are LX2001F.NLB for the characterset LX00001.NLB for the American Language LX10001.NLB for the American Territory (blank) for BINARY sort There also is a bootstrap file LX0BOOT.NLB and LX1BOOT.NLB Yes, you can copy them from another kit of the same platform (roughly the same will be good enough). I'm still waiting for my 10g to boot to doubly confirm the filenames for 10g, the ones I gave are from 9i and they most probably remain the same for 10g. You probably can copy from a 9i kit. Usde the Locale Builder in Open File by Object type to identify other filenames for other languages (that's what I did) M-square Jay wrote: > Dear All, > > Version 10g, Linux. > > Mistakely I did delete some files under $ORACLE_HOME/nls dir and now I am > getting > "ORA-12709: Error while loading create database character set" > > Is there any easy workaround to fix this issue?
