Yes, more than once - it always turned out that it was my own fault. a) Talked to two different databases (ORACLE_SID was wrong). b) Inserted some rows with sqlplus, forgot to commit them, PHP didn't see the new rows. c) Logged in with sqlplus on an afternoon, played a bit with it, and in the next morning I got different results from that sqlplus session and from PHP. The problem was that our DB has a package which stores the login date in a session specific variable. So the old sqlplus session returned data from yesterday, and PHP returned the current data. Using PHP's old ora_* functions would of course not have helped in these cases. Regards...
