If you install the Oracle Client for Linux you can recompile PHP with Oracle support (oci_* funcitons) and use PEAR DB if you wish. Much easier and lighier than use JDBC. The advantage of using JDBC is that you do not need any Oracle client software installed. Be carefull of the Oracle release and Red hat (GLIBC) release used. They have to match, otherwise you'll got a non-functioning PHP modile and so a non-working apache. Eve if you can install oracle using the compat-* libraries, mixing software compiled with the system glibc and a compat glibc on the same executable wont't work. You can download Oracle for Linux from technet.oracle.com and them install just the client. Oracle versions do not have to match, so if you use Red Hat 7.2/7.3 go get Oracle 9iR2.
