:-) ... Windows is the best at running the C# .NET applications I have to build to make everyone happy that we are "industry standard" ... when big brother is not looking I use PHP for everything I can get away with. I'm actually very impressed with how easily PHP integrates into an IIS / MSSQL environment (in CGI mode that is) ... it has been quite stable and believe it or not upgrades don't require a reboot!!! I have even called the php parser directly from sql server dts packages & agent jobs... PHP is much more powerful then anything m$ offers. <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: NIPP, SCOTT V (SBCSI) [mailto:sn4265@sbc.com] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 2:08 PM To: Ryan Jameson (USA); php-db@lists.php.net Subject: RE: Oracle/PHP question...

If your webserver is win32 then you need to uncomment the line in php.ini that says : ;extension=php_oci8.dll .... if it is unix based I am not sure what you need to do. <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: NIPP, SCOTT V (SBCSI) [mailto:sn4265@sbc.com] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 1:58 PM To: 'php-db@lists.php.net' Subject: Oracle/PHP question... I am now trying to setup connectivity to a remote Oracle database for my PHP/Apache web server. I am attempting to verify connectivity to the database by: <?php $connection = OCILogon("user", "password") or die ("Unable to logon to database."); ?> I have installed the Oracle client on the system, and I have also setup the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables. Unfortunately at this point I am not even able to make a successful connection to the Oracle database. I am currently receiving the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in /www/DW/oratest.php on line 10 Do I need to recompile PHP to be Oracle aware or something? What is it I am missing at this point? Thanks in advance.
