Creating a New Database

Create a new database that stores information in the UTF-8 character set. This allows AuthMinder to use international characters including double-byte languages.

Perform the following steps to enable UTF-8 support:

1. Log in to the Oracle database server as SYS or SYSTEM.
2. Run the following command:

   Update sys.props$ set value$='UTF8' where name='NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET' Or name = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
   

3. Restart the database and check whether the character set is configured to UTF-8.
