OK. I think I now have Oracle support built into PHP/Apache. The biggest hiccup for HP-UX seems to be that once you add Oracle support to PHP, you CANNOT built PHP as a DSO, PHP MUST be compiled into Apache. Once again, I think this is the case, I am still not completely sure at this point. I am now receiving an error on trying to connect to the Oracle database that I do not understand, but leads me to believe that the PHP Oracle support is functioning. Here is the code I am attempting: <?php $connection = OCILogon("userid", "password") or die ("Unable to logon to database."); # phpinfo(); ?> Here is the error I am receiving: Warning: OCISessionBegin: ORA-01034: ORACLE not available in /www/DW/oratest.php on line 10 Unable to logon to database. The code I am attempting is simply to verify successful connectivity to the database. I know that this doesn't really do anything, but I am trying this simply to test for a successful connection. Please let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions. Thanks again.
