Teradata Response Row size or Constant Row size overflow error

Problem: 

When we query Teradata for a specific table in bteq , we get the following error;

 *** Failure 9804 Response Row size or Constant Row size overflow.\n                Statement# 1, Info =0 \n *** Total elapsed time was 1 second.\n

Solution:

The following should work. do this before .logon i.e. before establishing the session with TD.

.set session charset 'ascii';\n

For ODBC and JDBC clients the connection parameter called CHARSET should be used to resolve this issue
