From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Windows PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: ODBC related Bug description: Problem connecting to Oracle On Windows NT 4 and IIS PHP, from version 4 to the latest, is encountering a problem connecting remote Oracle using ODBC. When tring to connect to a DB using the alias defined in the file TNSNAMES.ORA also Oracle and OCI8 functions are doing the same. The problem is that, when using Oracle client version 7.3.4, the file SQLNET.ORA needs to be saved in Unix text format to get a connection to a DB defined in TNSNAMES.ORA, which needs to be saved the same way to get connected when using Oracle client 8. I know it is not a severe bug, but if you look at the bug reporting and in many PHP mailing lists you'll find a lot of people reporting problems connecting to Oracle from PHP on Windows, at the risk of lowering the trust in the use of PHP in commercial or enterprise applications. Please fix it ASAP. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10992&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
