Status: Bogus
Bug Type: OCI8 related
Operating System: sles9
PHP Version: 5.2.3
New Comment:
i definitly wrote in OS field - sles9 (sles9= Suse Linux Enterprise
server version 9) , service pack 3, OFFICIAL
i mention freebsd as link, not because i use it. i found link with
problem solution.
configure
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --prefix=/usr/local
--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/conf --with-oci8=/oracle/as
--disable-rpath --enable-soap --enable-iconv --enable-oracle
--with-gd -with-png-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr
--with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-zlib=/usr
(/oracle/as is oracle application server. we use also oracle9
database. all from official installation)
version 5.1.6 compilations is normal
version 5.2.3 not compiling , error i've mentioned above
!useful information:
------------------------------------------
please add 4 lines to source of oci8 extension lines:
#ifdef OCI_NLS_CHARSET_MAXBYTESZ
#else
bytes_per_char = 4;
#endif
in ext/oci8/oci8_lob.c, near line 340
as i mensioned above
-------------------------------------------
another questions:
why some php developers not analysing problem , but just make
copy-paste, and even make errors in copy-pasting :)

OCI8 builds and works perfectly fine with Oracle 9, 10 and 11.
It can also be used to communicate with earlier versions, though we do
not support clients < 9 because of several reasons which I'm not going
to explain here.
If you are using an unsupported platform (FreeBSD), then it's your
responsibility to make it work - we're definitely not going to support
hacks and unofficial "ports".
If you mentioned FreeBSD for another reason, then please try to be more
verbose: I can see a lot of emotions in your report, but almost no
useful information.
What kind of OS is that? Which version of Oracle client was used? Do
you use official distribution or something manually hacked? How did you
configure PHP?
Without this information the report is bogus.

comparing with headers that was long time ago (few monthes), and

conclusions:
ociheaders didn't changed last few monthes
but on php-5.1.6 they worked
and now (php-5.2.3) compilling with them raise error

Calling people stupid is the best way to report bugs..
Upgrade your oci libs. That's the solution. I copy pasted wrong reply,
I was supposed to copy this:
[10 May 8:05pm UTC] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Upgrade to newer Oracle version.

You must be realy stupid!
first read what i wrote about:
I'm telling not about oracle8, but about oracle9 and oracle10.
extension name is OCI8 , but it used for oracle from 8 to 10
NOT ONLY TO ORACLE 8 (!)
