Hum..... Maybe it is because of the weekend or maybe it is because the combination of RH7, Oracle and PHP is too volitile, but I have yet to hear of anyone who has gotten this to work. Well, my experience brings up serious doubts that it can be done (but I will persist!) I will quickly recap if you have not followed my previous posts. I recompiled Apache and PHP according to instructions causing a working situation to become broken. All PHP code showed in the browser instead of being rendered. I went over my configuration with a find tooth comb and it appeared correct. In response to this, I decided to return to my previous state by installing the RH7 rpm with the additional oci rpm for Oracle support. Indeed, it did improve the situation but only halfway. Let me explain...... The browser now renders the PHP correctly and the phpinfo() function shows that the --with-oci8 support is included. However, when I use the basic OCI function OCILogin, I get the following error (just as I did when I first started this mess): Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in /home/jon/public_html/test.php on line 25 So, I tried to run the file from the command line, and lo and behold, the file worked as it should. I did not get any errors whatsoever. What the hell could all this mean? _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
