I am trying to install Oracle XE to run PHP scripts. I have read that it is preferable to set ORACLE_HOME before starting Apache instead of using putenv() in the PHP script. I have tried the recommended script.

You may find the PassEnv directive useful. "Specifies one or more environment variables to pass to CGI scripts and SSI pages from the environment of the shell which invoked the httpd process." Alternatively you could look at the envvars script which is invoked by apachectl in modern versions of apache, however the path you mentioned implies you're running 1.3 so don't have that. -- noodl --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
