Hi,
I have already saw similar questions but I think my pb is a bit different.
I wrote a perl script that use an oracle 9i DB throug DBI DBD::Oracle.
This script work fine when started from command line but fail when
launched by apache with
the folowing error (from the apache error log) :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Thu Sep 6 08:42:55 2001] lot.cgi: ORACLE_HOME environment variable not
set!
[Thu Sep 6 08:42:55 2001] lot.cgi: DBI->connect(host=eddiegc;sid=carto)
failed: (UNKNOWN OCI STATUS 1804) OCIInitialize. Check ORACLE_HOME and
NLS settings etc. at Utilitaires.pm line 108
[Thu Sep 6 08:42:55 2001] lot.cgi: Probleme de connexion a la base:
(UNKNOWN OCI STATUS 1804) OCIInitialize. Check ORACLE_HOME and NLS
settings etc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't understand what happen since the script work fine under apache
user session, nobody user session and root user session (httpd process
is running under apache account). In other words, everybody can start
that script except apache through the browser !
SQL*PLUS works too for all accounts but DBISH does not connect if I
choose one of the DSN or type a full DSN, here is dbish error :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORA-01004: default username feature not supported; logon denied (DBD
ERROR: OCISessionBegin)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems that oracle env variables are OK for interactive connections,
so I tested them in a sh cgi script call. The resutl is surprising : a
exec 'env' call in a cgi script return the apache env vars
(httpuseragent, querystring, etc ....), no trace of system variables !!!
Help !!
My config :Linux Mandrake 8.0, ORACLE 9i
andApache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.1,
