No, when you build apache, $ORACLE_HOME doesn't need to be set.  It does 
need to be set when you build PHP, and when you start Apache.

On  Linux, you'd need to add $ORACLE_HOME/lib (the actual path) to your 
/etc/ld.so.conf file, and make sure $ORACLE_HOME is set before you start 
Apache..

For example, my /etc/ld.so.conf file looks something like this:

/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib

Apache should then start up fine.

yes, that's how I believe it has to be...

do you mean that when I compile and configure apache, $ORACLE_HOME is properly set?

I think I met those conditions. That's why I got surprised when it didn't work. Apache 
died whenever I executed "apachectl start".

I didn't want to find out at that moment what was happening. Only reconfigured and 
recompiled PHP as apache module and worked fine.

Maybe I did something wrong on the way, who knows.

Thanks for letting me know.

PHP as a DSO with Oracle support does work.  You need to make sure that 
$ORACLE_HOME is in Apache's path and that the libctlnsh.so.8.0 file is 
in your library path (I believe its usually found in $ORACLE_HOME/lib).

 Hi:

no problem at all with this combination:

- PIII 800MHz -256MB
- Red Hat 6.2
- Apache 1.3.12
- PHP 4.0.3pl1
- Oracle 8.1.6

Only one tip: PHP as a loadable module of Apache DOESN'T SEEM to work with oracle8 
(--with-apxs)

You must compile PHP as an Apache module (--with-apache).
Greetings,

I don't know if this is of any interest, but I successfully
built php4-200101100845 with OCI8 on NT5. I haven't tested 
it yet, but the extension shows as loaded in phpinfo().
