At http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/notes/technote_php_instant.html, under the heading "Enabling the PHP OCI8 Extension on Linux " they suggest a syntax like: '--with-oci8-instant-client=/opt/local/lib/oracle' Phpinfo has an oci8 section further, and it looks like it is getting installed. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
