Re: [gdal-dev] Absolutely no progress trying to compile GDAL with Oracle support on Windows

Haha amazing! Thanks for your input Tamas. I had all the relevant Oracle and FileGDB pieces installed, and correctly in the path. I just needed to copy ogr_FileGDB.dll from bin\gdal\plugins-external to bin\gdal\plugins and I'm in business. Thanks all for the assistance, especially when it was a

Re: [gdal-dev] Absolutely no progress trying to compile GDAL with Oracle support on Windows

Jukka - Thanks for the suggestion. I have extracted the contents of release-1600-gdal-mapserver.zip (Compiled binaries in a single .zip package ) which seems to include the Oracle plugin (gdal_GEOR.dll and ogr_OCI.dll). However OCI is still not listed in gdalinfo --formats, and running my

Nicolas - thanks for your input but I have only ever tried to build with the plugin enabled. The OCI format is not listed in gdalinfo. -- View this message in context:

Re: [gdal-dev] Absolutely no progress trying to compile GDAL with Oracle support on Windows

Eli - thanks a bunch for mentioning the .bat file - that got Oracle support working! I really should have seen that, and the read-me in the same directory telling me to run it... I've just got into a routine of getting the binaries, testing with the same commands, and being disappointed. This

Re: [gdal-dev] ogr2ogr gdalinfo both crashing on 64-bit Windows 7, very little info available

Well thanks for your input Peter, as there is no apparent reason for the crash I've settled for just trying to build gdal from source on Windows. This is presenting its own problems and I am currently headed for a new post in the list... -- View this message in context:

[gdal-dev] Absolutely no progress trying to compile GDAL with Oracle support on Windows

I've started a couple of threads on this forum recently trying to figure out similar problems and currently compiling GDAL 1.9.2 from source on Windows looks like my best option - but STILL I'm getting nowhere. I can't believe how much time this is taking! I've set up my nmake.opt file with

Re: [gdal-dev] ogr2ogr gdalinfo both crashing on 64-bit Windows 7, very little info available

Ivan, thanks for the suggestions. The Oracle client is 32 bit, and as you noted GDAL is also 32 bit. The OSGeo4W bin and lib directories are both at the beginning of the path, before the Oracle directories. It might not be relevant but I have an Oracle 11.2 Oracle client talking to a 10.2

Ethan, Ivan thanks for the suggestions. I am still looking into this but it is a background task. I'll update this thread when I have more results. -- View this message in context:

[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr gdalinfo both crashing on 64-bit Windows 7, very little info available

When I run ogr2ogr or gdalinfo (and maybe other tools, I've never used the others) I always get a crash. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit and gdal 1.9.2. The only information I get from Windows Event Viewer looks like this: ogr2ogr.exe 0.0.0.0 50981d19 ntdll.dll 6.1.7601.17725 4ec49b8f c374

[gdal-dev] Problem compiling gdal with OCI support, configure doesn't seem to know where to look

First of all sorry for posing a question that has been asked a thousand times before. I did a lot of research but didn't find this specific problem. I have Linux Mint (Ubuntu) with Oracle instant client basic and SDK (11.2) installed from .deb (via Alien). $ORACLE_HOME is set
