I connect to our Oracle DataMart, and use JDBC thin
driver. Some tables can access normally. But several
tables cannot select the record, an error message is
returned:
Cannot convert between UTF8 and UCS2: failUTF8Conv

Please help me to find the root cause.

We looked this up on the Sun site and found a workaround:

For example:

city = new String( rs.getBytes( "town_city" ), "UTF-8" );

I use Oracle's convert function to get non-utf8 data from utf8 databases.

select convert(columns_with_non_utf8, 'UTF8', 'WE8ISO8859P1') as fixed_column from sometable

See my blog for detail:

I had the same issue and I was able to resolve by using the contentType='UTF-8' on the master tile in the front end (jsp). This made the request to pass the characters encoded in UTF-8 and hence no conversion would be required at the database end.

The way to test is that from the browser (before sending the request), force the encoding to be UTF-8. As soon as the response comes back, the encoding would have been changed on the browser. This is because the request and resposne were not properly forced to be UTF-8 encoded.

I hope this works for you. If not let me know.
