Re: [PHP-DB] Oracle-PHP (contd.)

Are you sure you need an environment variable to store that?
if yes, this script should do the trick :
putenv(TNS_ADMIN=/ora1/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/admin);
---
$tns = getenv(TNS_ADMIN);
echo $tns;

 With reference to my previous problem in connecting to the oracle
 database, I found out some additional information.
 I defined the TNS_ADMIN variable in the startup file and added
 this line to my php-script:
 putenv(TNS_ADMIN=/ora1/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/admin);

 and when I tried to echo this variable

 echo($TNS_ADMIN);

 The value is not being printed, it is not defined.When I tried the
 same thing at the command prompt the value was defined.What is the reason
 that the value of TNS_ADMIN is not being available to the php-script.
