CLOBS were indroduced in oracle8 you need to use the oci*() functions to get them from the database. the ora*() functions do not (and will never) support this datatype as it's technically not possible. your problem will vanish once you use the oci*() functions. tc John Kolvereid wrote: Hi, I tried the following snippet from http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.oracle.php $query = Select * from patients where clientid = 'DEMO'; ora_parse($curs, $query); ora_exec($curs); ora_fetch($curs); The parse executed successfully, but the exec complained that Ora_Exec failed (ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes -- while processing OCI function OEXEC/OEXN) Earlier I had taken an example from Thies Arntzen's conf notes and successfully opened, parsed and fetehed, using the same query and the same db, only w/ OCI commands.

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Unable to Open ORACLE
John: Yes, CLOBs are a little more difficult to access. The best way I've used them is to use the DBMS_LOB package in Oracle. Here's a link on technet.oracle.com to some documentation. http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/appdev. 817/a76940/adl03pr4.htm#146661 I suggest using this with stored procedures and bind variables. php.net has more info on using stored procedures bind variables.

Hello, John Kolvereid wrote: Hi, Me again, My table has a CLOB in it. When I tried the same querry w/ another table w/o a CLOB it succeeded. Are CLOBs an issue? Please advise. Thanks. I have no idea what is the problem here, but you may want to try Metabase which is a PHP database abstraction that handles CLOB/BLOBs very well with any supported database including Oracle. Take a look at the example described in Metabase tutorial document. http://phpclasses.UpperDesign.com/browse.html/20 Regards, Manuel Lemos John Kolvereid wrote: Hi, I tried the following snippet from http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.oracle.php $query = Select * from patients where clientid = 'DEMO'; ora_parse($curs, $query); ora_exec($curs); ora_fetch($curs); The parse executed successfully, but the exec complained that Ora_Exec failed (ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes -- while processing OCI function OEXEC/OEXN) Earlier I had taken an example from Thies Arntzen's conf notes and successfully opened, parsed and fetehed, using the same query and the same db, only w/ OCI commands.
