Thanks for the reply...
I was planning to install Zope on the database server, compile DCOracle
there, and then just copy the *.so files to the webservers, where the real
Zope install is. Do you need the oracle client libraries on the webservers
to make the connection or are the two shared libraries that you compile,
(oci_.so and Buffer.so) enough to make the connection to the web server?

Hi,
If you are running Zope on
1. Linux:
You need to install Oracle client libraries to compile
ZOracleDA. As far as I know, Oracle does not give
any easy way to install only the clients. So, if you've
enough disk space, install Oracle with the minimum
DB options, and compile ZOracleDA. You DON'T
NEED to run Oracle DB on your Zope machine, to
have zope connect to your actual DB machine.
2. Win NT/2000/98
You can install only the client libraries from the Oracle CD,
get ZOracleDA compiled and run Zope.
I've used it both ways. Somewhere on the net there
was a tarred version of client-only-oracle-4-linux. Check
freshmeat.net and gnome.org for some GTK apps
for accessing Oracle. It was there in the homepage
for that suite of apps.

Zope list members,
I have been developing a zope site with oracle on linux as a backend.
Currently, I run both zope and oracle on the same machine using the
ZOracleDA for connectivity. However, for production, I plan to seperate
the
tiers and run zope and and oracle on different servers. From looking at
the
build instructions for the DCOracle, it seems as though it will only work
when the web server and database server are on the same filesystem/in the
same memory space.
Is there a way to have my zope server talk to a remote (across the network
somewhere) database server? Do I have to move to something like ODBC for
this?
Thanks for your help!
