I'm using debian gnu/linux and having no luck in getting the oci8 extension to work. I installed the php4 (4.0.4) package from the unstable branch in debian. (This installation does not include support for oci8 because oci8 uses proprietary libs from Oracle.) The installation, combined with apache, is running very well. Now I need to add oci8 support, so I download the php4 source. These are the steps I take to build the extension: I've installed php4 already, I just nead to build the oci8 extension. I have a working ORACLE_HOME. I get the php4 source package from debian and move into (php_source_dir)/ext/oci8 and execute phpize. I execute ./configure. I execute make install. The install goes smoothly. All of the commands execute successfully and oci8.so is installed where the rest of my php4 extensions are. I edit php.ini and add 'extension=oci8.so'. I restart apache. When I run a test, like ocilogon("scott","tiger",$db), it tells me that ocilogon is an undefined function. I run phpinfo(), I notice that all of my other extensions have loaded, BUT NOT OCI8! Does anyone know why this extension will not load?
