I do in fact have all of the Oracle libraries installed. We actually have a full Oracle Enterprise database install as well as the client. I finally was able to get MapServer compiled. I did have to hand edit the configure file and the Mapscript Makefile to point to the right libs path. In the end I realized that I had mixed the OGR Oracle Spatial syntax and the MapServer native syntax. In fact there was a problem with the username/password as I was trying to use MapServer native with "OCI:username/password" I tried it without the OCI and it worked perfectly. I'm still having problems getting GDAL to find the Oracle libraries. I gave up as MapServer native is working.
