Cognos Transformer with Arabic Data

[nishant.thakar]

Hi Gurus,
I am using Cognos Transformer 10.2.1 for building the cube.
The data being fetched is in Arabic.
Transformer is going into Unique Hierarchy path violation as the transformer is reading "?????" marks instead of Arabic language.
Please help!

Regards,
Nishant Thakar

I always thought that Transformer does not support unicode characters, but this document seems to imply otherwise. Perhaps it will help you.

Changing the OS locale helped me. :)
