 New Comment:

We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore.
Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will
lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6
ready.

+----------------------------------------
|
| PHP 4 only ships an original version of OCI8 that is notorious for
| connection problems like the ones you describe.  In 2005, the OCI8
| code was refactored, enhanced, and released in PHP 5, where it has
| been maintained.  For PHP 4 it is recommended to download the
| equivalent, latest stable OCI8 from PECL.

Description:

Hi;

We are running on :

apache: 1.3.34
php   : 4.4.2
Oracle: 10.2.0


Our Web based application seems to have a problem intermittently where
by php looses connection to Oracle. We get the following error:

login ::   ::  Mar, 12th 10:28:54 ::: Warning: ociexecute():
OCIStmtExecute: ORA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The only solution is to restart Apache. Why Apache restart solves the
connection problem for a long period?

Also, I've prepared a php script that queries the Oracle Database. This
seems to work eventhough the problem exist and before we restart
Apache.

The script is:

<?php

$conn = OCILogon("username","password", "tnsname");

$stmt = OCIParse($conn,"select emp_id from employee order by emp_id");

#OCIBindByName($stmt, ':emp', $emp);

$ok = OCIExecute($stmt);

while (OCIFetchInto($stmt,$arr)) {
#        print_r($arr);
        echo "EMP_ID = $arr[0]";
        echo "<hr>";
}

?>

Why the query using the above script works and when the application
uses the adodb-oci library we get the "connection lost contact" problem.
Is there a bug in the persistent connection or what?


Any advise will be appreciated.

Thanks
Hicham
