ORA-12731: invalid collation class in regular expression

Synopsis

You specified a collation element that does not exist in your current sort order. For example, specifying [.ch.] when NLS_SORT is other than XSPANISH or XCZECH will cause this error, because other languages never treat the combination 'ch' as a single character. Check your expression to be sure that each use of [= and =] is valid, and check your NLS_SORT setting.
