[PHP-DB] Re: Dreamweaver as PHP editor
you could name your files *.inc.php - DW would see them as php files - and it can be safer (look if an internaut asks for the url www.yoursite.com/config.inc : he will see the source code...) Regards, Philippe Susi Sloan [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit dans le message news: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm just getting into PHP, and have found that as a PHP code editor, Dreamweaver works pretty well (with the extension I installed). My question is this, whenever I save an include file with the .inc extension, all of the color coding goes away, as does the PHP tab on the tool bar. Is there any way to make Dreamweaver see a .inc file as a PHP file? I looked on all the menus and in the preferences, but I couldn't find an obvious way to do this. Thanks!

Hi:
I have a Oracle 7.3.3 on Unix, but in my computer (client) Windows
2000 i have a php source code that try to connect with this database.
I test with TNSPING and SQLPLUS commands line, and connect with both
susseffuly, but when i try to connect with php can't.
I have a Apache server with php 4.2.2
i'm trying the follow code:
?
if ($conn=Ora_Logon( [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ,
webmaster)) {
echo BSUCCESS ! Connected to databaseB\n;
} else {
echo BFailed :-( Could not connect to databaseB\n;
}
Ora_Logoff($conn);
?
And the error is:
Warning: Oracle: Connection Failed: in C:\FoxServ\www\conectar.php on line
2
Failed :-( Could not connect to database
Warning: ora_logoff(): supplied argument is not a valid Oracle-Connection
resource in C:\FoxServ\www\conectar.php on line 7
Have you tried the newer oci8 extension, instead of the oracle one ? you
need the oracle client installed onto you php server (I think it is already
there, as you said your SQLPLUS is working correctly, but I'm not an oracle
guru ;-( ), and uncomment php_oci8.dll instead of php_oracle. After that,
you would be able to connect to your remote oracle db using ocilogon instead
of ora_logon.
Hope this helps.

I set up PHP on a Sun Solaris box a week ago (see phpinfo output below). It has oracle 7.3.4 and php 4.0.4pl1 so I'm using the --with-oracle configure option. Due to a special module we're using we're stuck with using that php version (4.0.4pl1). Couldn't you use --with-oci, even with that php version ? it's the newer and better module for oracle (both oracle 7 and 8). Look at ocilogon() function and friends. At first I was getting the ORA-12154 TNS:could not resolve service name error almost every time. I then followed the instructions to set the ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN environment variables in apaches http.conf. I've also tried using the putenv function to set the variables. I had also trouble with ora12154. I use now a workaround : when I use : $connection = OCILogon($user, $pass, $tns) or die(No Connection); for the third parameter ($tns), I don't use the name found in tnsnames.ora, but directly the entire syntax something like : (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY = tcp.world) (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = ip address) (Port = 1521) ) (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY = tcp.world) (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = ip address) (Port = 1526) ) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL) ) ) Regards, Philippe -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

NConnect exists in adodb since version 2.43. Have you tried with PConnect()

be they are more robust ?
Is this a bug? Should I try ADODB 2.5 instead since it's listed as being

Re: [PHP-DB] Remote Oracle database questions...
DOH!!! I am seriously hoping that I do not need to have the Oracle client installed on the webserver running the PHP queries. I have no idea about the client licensing, and if it involves money in any way it is pretty much out of the question. Oh well... Hopefully I can find out about this stuff from one of our DBAs. You definitively need the oracle client installed onto your webserver. Don't worry, you should find it for free, AFAIK. Ask your dba, he would be able to help you. Otherwise, you should download it from www.oracle.com (download / archived products / oracle8). you can't download just the client, you have to get the entire oracle (500 Mb!!). database to perform my query? I notice that there is a Oracle function in PHP called ora_logon. This function description mentions something about about Ora_logon : this comes from the old oracle extension (php_oracle.dll). You would rather use Ocilogon and friends, from the newer php_oci.dll. It's much better. oci* functions can be used against a Oracle7 or an Oracle8 database. ora$ functions are limited to Oracle 7, and with less features. Finally, try this simple tutorial http://www.thickbook.com/extra/php_oracle.phtml to connect to Oracle. An other one at http://www.phpworld.com/articles/2000.03/oracle_000.html.

I'm working on a new site, and I'm wondering whether to use an abstraction layer or not. I don't have any plans to switch DB system, but you never know what the future holds. I figure that there's no reason not to, but are there any down sides? Which abstraction layers are good? well, any down side ? may be slower for example. So, if you don't plan to switch db system, the speed of the layer could be your criteria. ADOdb is a good one. PEAR also has an abstraction class. Once you get used to using them, they make things easier over all. I've never actually switched databases with them, so I don't know how much easier it makes that. I find them ideal for error catching and reporting. I agreed. ADOdb (http://php.weblogs.com/ADODB) is quite nice, fast, (the fatest ?) and very helpful even if you don't change db.

[PHP-DB] Re: Oracle... Beginner
PHP has to be compiled with the oci8 extension. If you use the win32 binaries of PHP, just uncomment the line extension=php_oci8.dll in php.ini. If your webserver and Oracle are on the same machine, that's all. In the other case you have to install the oracle 8 client onto the machine containing your webserver. This oracle 8 client is set up with the Oracle Installer. To create databases, you can use the oracle tools (oracle navigator, server manager, ...). To access them from PHP, you would see http://www.thickbook.com/extra/php_oracle.phtml for a simple tutorial. The php function to log to oracle is OCILogon. Note that in my case, I've trouble using OCILogon with its third argument, for example '@mydb'. I have to use the complete syntax you found in the oracle file tnsnames.ora. Hope you won't have this problem. Otherwise, search Googles for a lot of threads about it. One more thing. If you hear about oralogon function and friends, they refer to the oracle extension of PHP. In your case, you should use the latest one, i.e. oci8 extension (php_oci8.dll). Oracle extension (php_oracle.dll) was used for Oracle 7 databases. Hope it will help you !

Re: [PHP-DB] Oracle via php under windows 2k
See http://www.thickbook.com/extra/php_oracle.phtml for a simple tutorial. Note that in my case, I've trouble using OCILogon with its third argument, for example '@mydb'. I have to use the complete syntax you found in the oracle file tnsnames.ora, something like mydb.world = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY = tcp.world) (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = IP address) (Port = port 1) ) (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY = tcp.world) (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = IP address) (Port = port 1) ) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = oracle ID) ) ) Hope this helps. et bon courage !

Re: [PHP-DB] Oracle-PHP (contd.)
Are you sure you need an environment variable to store that? if yes, this script should do the trick : putenv(TNS_ADMIN=/ora1/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/admin); --- $tns = getenv(TNS_ADMIN); echo $tns; Regards, Philippe Vandana [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit dans le message news: [EMAIL PROTECTED] With reference to my previous problem in connecting to the oracle database, I found out some additional information.

Re: [PHP-DB] php accessing oracle
If you use PHP on Windows NT, you have to uncomment extension=php_oracle.dll
in your php.ini file, and copy php_oracle.dll to winnt\system32.
If you have installed Oracle8 client, you can also use php_oci8.dll (even
with a 7.3 database), with the OCILogon functions, etc...
I don't know what to do on another platform, sorry.
Best regards,
Philippe
