[PHP-DB] The Dreaded Oracle 8 TNS:ORA-12154 Connection Error
I am running PHP 4.0.4pl1 in CGI mode on Windows NT4 SP6, using Apache or IIS Web Server's. I am concentrating on Apache for this problem as it is identical irrespective of the Web Server. I'm using one of the simplest possible connection mechanisms ... if ($conn=Ora_Logon(user@mydatabase,pass)) { echo SUCCESS ! Connected to database\n; Ora_Logoff($conn); } else { echo Failed :-( Could not connect to database\n; } This works fine if PHP is run as an apache module but fails with the message Warning: Oracle: Connection Failed: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\ora.php on line 10 When Apache is re-configured to run PHP as CGI (other html on the same page suce as phpinfo() shows up just fine). At first I thought the Apache user may have been affecting privileges but the Apache User option doesn't work under Windows I even tried running Apache as a service using the Administrator account - no change. Have tried environment paths to ORACLE_HOME, TNS_PATH etc. etc. etc. all to no avail. We use sqlnet.ora with an oracle name server. I have to use CGI as PHP4 isn't to production level for use as a Filter with IIS corporate policy dictates that I must prove PHP against ASP on the existing IIS server before I can even attempt using Apache. I would greatly appreciate any construction :-) advise anyone can offer.
