Hi,
I believe you have to make sure you have correctly installed the Oracle
client libraries
and that they are in your PATH;
I also think you have to make sure you supply the correct parameters to
the
OCILogon function
especially the database parameter.
It has to be a name from tnsnames.ora
For instance:
lets's say you have in tnsnames.ora:
CONN.LOCAL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = ORCL)
)
)
If I remember correctly you would have to connect like this:
$conn = OCILogon("scott", "tiger", "CONN.LOCAL");
I hope this helps,
Catalin
