You'll need to download and install Oracle Instant client 'basic' and
'devel' RPMs from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html
# rpm -i oracle-instantclient-basic-11.1.0.1-1.i386.rpm
oracle-instantclient-devel-11.1.0.1-1.i386.rpm
If pecl isn't available or fails, follow these steps.
Download PHP's oci8 1.3.3 extension from PECL
http://pecl.php.net/package/oci8
Build it:
$ tar -zxf oci8-1.3.3.tgz
$ cd oci8-1.3.3
$ phpize
$ ./configure --with-oci8=shared,instantclient
$ make
Install it as root:
# cd oci8-1.3.3
# make install
Edit /etc/php.ini and add this line:
extension=oci8.so
If you don't have a DB, download and install Oracle XE database from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/xe/index.html
# rpm -i oracle-xe-univ-10.2.0.1-1.0.i386.rpm
Configure XE:
# /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
