Re: Linking issues on Solaris 10 x86

[Christopher Jones <christopher.jones@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kristof,

Regarding the OCI8 side of the question, it could be something Solaris
specific with linking or it might be a function of the way that the
version of Instant Client was built on Solaris.

Can you retry with Instant Client 11.2?  I recall at some point of
Instant Client's history there was an rpath change on Linux.  I'm not
a Solaris user.

For discoverability and tracking can you log a bug at
http://bugs.php.net/ ?  Include the full Instant Client version and
also do a diff -u Makefile.orig Makefile.

Unrelated to your issue, for PHP 5.2 I'd recommend using the version
of PHP OCI8 from PECL.

Chris
