HI, I use SuSE.6.4 with Ora.8.1.6/PHP.4.0.6. For a while, it used to be PHP/4.1.2, but I reverted to PHP/4.0.6 because of other non-Ora related problems. /etc/rc.d/apache startup script extract below
<extract> # # set values for Oracle (need to recompile mod_php with Oracle support) # export ORACLE_SID=ORCL export ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.6 export ORA_NLS33=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.6/ocommon/nls/admin/data export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libpthread.so export NLS_LANG=american_greece.el8iso8859p7 #export ORACLE_HOME=$ORA_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/lib # # export variables for database drivers in PHP # export DBROOT ORACLE_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH </extract> Never had any problem with Ora chars with _this_ setup. Are you 100% certain you have installed everything alright? All necessary re-compilations have been done? -Stathis. Miguel Carvalho wrote: > > > The speed decrease is dependant on your setup.
