Supported values for DEFAULTCHARSET in rwservlet.properties

You have to specify the character encoding in the rwservlet.properties file before you can apply. It is located in ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/rwservlet.properties of server.

This is to ensure that rwservlet uses the required encoding when decoding the parameter name and value. 

You can set the value of DEFAULTCHARSET in the rwservlet.properties file to either:
  • The database's NLS_CHARACTERSET (for example, JA16EUC).
  • The IANA-defined character set (for example, EUC-JP).
Example:       DEFAULTCHARSET=JA16EUC

The following tables show the encoding sets supported by J2SE 1.3.1 [ Reports 9ig ]
