Re: php and Oracle client on mac

Ahmed,

Since you already have the Oracle client
installed, I am assuming you can connect to the Oracle instance using sqlplus.
 If this is in fact the case, all you have to do is recompile PHP
and add in the following line to your configure statement:

        with-oci8=instantclient,/usr/local/oracle/instantclient_10_2
\

Of course, your path would be different
as it should point to the location of your Oracle client installation.

Hello there

I have a Mac OS X 10.5.2 on which php and Apache are installed and running
(which come by default with company installation, but after enabling the
php).

What I need to do is to develop some php code which access a remote database
server of Oracle (on which I have an account).

I have Oracle client 10 downloaded on my machine.

As far as I knew I have to set some environment variables as well as recompile
the php??

Can anyone please help by as much detailed instructions as possibole please
as I have totally no idea of what I should do?

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Best.
