BTW... I'm not the one stuck trying to figure out how to recompile my current version of PHP to include the oci functions... haha! And guess what, with every release you get to do it all over again... so polish up on the shell scripting unless you want to reinvent the wheel every month or two. :-D

Windows is the best at running the C# .NET applications I have to build to :make everyone happy that we are "industry standard" ... when big brother is not :looking I use PHP for everything I can get away with. I'm actually very impressed :with how easily PHP integrates into an IIS / MSSQL environment (in CGI mode that is) :... it has been quite stable and believe it or not upgrades don't require a reboot!!! :I have even called the php parser directly from sql server dts packages & agent :jobs... PHP is much more powerful then anything m$ offers. <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: NIPP, SCOTT V (SBCSI) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 2:08 PM To: Ryan Jameson (USA); [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle/PHP question... Thanks, but my web server is HP-UX.

If your webserver is win32 then you need to uncomment the line in php.ini that says : ;extension=php_oci8.dll .... if it is unix based I am not sure what you need to do. <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: NIPP, SCOTT V (SBCSI) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 1:58 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [PHP-DB] Oracle/PHP question... I am now trying to setup connectivity to a remote Oracle database for my PHP/Apache web server. I am attempting to verify connectivity to the database by: <?php $connection = OCILogon("user", "password") or die ("Unable to logon to database."); ?> I have installed the Oracle client on the system, and I have also setup the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables. Unfortunately at this point I am not even able to make a successful connection to the Oracle database. I am currently receiving the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in /www/DW/oratest.php on line 10 Do I need to recompile PHP to be Oracle aware or something? What is it I am missing at this point? Thanks in advance.
