 How do I get connected from a remote PHP+Apache box to Oracle9i on linux?
The current Oracle Instant Client bundle is fine for using PHP on
Windows, but does not have headers for compiling PHP with Oracle
support on other platforms.  An Instant Client SDK with headers is
coming soon I'm told, so scenarios like yours will be made a lot
simpler.
In the meantime, to link with Oracle 9i drivers, download the
Oracle9i Database Release 2, run the installer and choose the
Client option.  Without knowing your hardware, I'd guess along with
you that you want the 9.2.0.4 bundle marked Enterprise/Standard
Edition for Linux New.
For Oracle 10g drivers download the Oracle Database 10g Client
Release, run the installer and choose the Administrator option.
I'd go with the 10g option.
There are some documents (including one on PHP/Oracle/Linux) that may
help at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/opensource/index.html

Folks --
I've been trying to figure out where the Oracle client libraries live, but
I'm confused as hell.
I've read the PHP-DB archives, and everyone keeps talking about installing
the client libraries (libclntsh et al), and how that's all you need for
Oracle 9i PHP support.  Great -- but which options presented horribly by
Oracle do I download?
On this page:

I'm running Linux RH Enterprise 3 on this server, and the Oracle box is
remote.  My original assumption is to download the second link, 9iR2 for
Linux.  However, this is 1.5GB worth of a download for three friggin
drivers.  What the hell?
All of the clients are for Windows, Even the 9.0.1 release is 1.1GB.
What do I need to download from Oracle to get the drivers for PHP?  Please
don't just say go to otn.oracle.com and download the client because I've
been there and cannot for the life of me find it.
I don't have the ability to display X Windows remotely, so whatever
solution has got to be command line.  I'm at my wits end!
I've installed Instant Client, so I have the 10g libraries:

Tom,

From Oracle :)

Alternativley you can use the OpenLink Multi-Tier ODBC driver at
www.openlinksw.com.  It downloads with a free 2-connection license, and has
free support available at www.openlinksw.com/support/suppindx.htm

HTH!

 Hi all.

 Where can I get the Oracle client libraries for PHP4? I am running
 Apache and PHP4 on my NT Server and I will be connecting to an Oracle
 database on a Solaris server via remote connect? I saw some threads
 earlier indicating that they could be found at download.swwwing.com but
 that server is apparantly no longer running.

 Anyone?

 Thanks.

 Tom Tsongas

Re: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client Libraries?

2001-07-11 Thread Tom Tsongas 

Hi again.

I just found an above message that states the DLLs I need are in the PHP package
I installed and I just need to uncomment them from php.ini. Am I off the beaten
track or is that true?

I found the listings for php_oracle.dll and php_oci8.dll in php.ini under the
'Dynamic Extensions' section. I'm 'guessing' I only need to restart Apache now
to activate the extensions.

In my scenario, php and Apache are on my local NT server while the Oracle
database is on a Solaris box. Anything else I need to know?

Thanks in advance.

Tom

 Tom:

 Go to technet.oracle.com and download Oracle 8i Database for WinNT. When you
 run the installer, you can do a custom set-up to only install the networking
 libraries (Net8). Run Net8 Easy Config. That will get you started.

 I'm not sure how much it costs officially. You'll have to call up Oracle for
 current pricing.
