I can’t register the euro character € in my oracle database. If I do it in request (in a .sql script) I have a -| symbol, if I do it directly in edition mode in sqldevelopper i have a point mark upside down. I have seen this similar question :
oracle-jdbc-euro-character

But jdbc is not used in my process, my mistake.

    It’s probably to do with the CHARACTERSET used by your database. Run the following query to check your CHARACTERSET:

    select value from nls_database_parameters where parameter='NLS_CHARACTERSET';

    The Euro symbol is supported by:
