Hello,
I am having a strange issue with Oracle and PHP. I am running PHP Version 4.3.4 on Red Hat AS 2.3 and trying to connect to Oracle 9i also on Red Hat AS 2.3.
I compiled PHP successfully with OCI and oracle. My script uses the ocilogon($user, $password, $db); or ora_logon($user.'@'.$db, $password); depending on what interface I want to use in my abstraction layer.
Note: All oracle failures (*** some error ***) are when I use the ora_logon, ocilogon, or the ocinlogon.
Info about what works:
- PHP can at lease partially talk to the remote Oracle DB.
- If I give a bad username or password, PHP returns *** Oracle: Connection Failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied.*** So I know PHP is able to validate the username against the remote Oracle database.
- If I give an unspecified TNS name, "BDB1_broken", instead of "BDB1" which is in the tnsnames.ora file, I get the following Oracle message though PHP: *** Oracle: Connection Failed: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name ***. So I know that the TNS name is being verified against the remote database.
- When I try to logon to the remote DB with SQLPlus using the same tnsnames.ora file used by PHP, I can logon just fine. Also, a plsql stored procedure running off a DAD on the server works.
THE PROBLEM: When I use the correct username, password and ORACLE_SID, I get the following error:
*** Oracle: Connection Failed: ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist ***
I have: - Tried specifying the DB connection in the PHP code $DATABASE = "(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.2.2)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = BDB1.world) ) )"; - Tried using the IP address "192.168.2.2" and the host name both in the PHP and the tnsnames file. - Added apache and nobody to the oracle and the dbs groups. - Setting different environment vars in the PHP code putenv("ORACLE_HOME=/opt/ora9/product/9201"); putenv("ORACLE_SID=BDB1") - Recompiling PHP - Using "BDB1" and "BDB1.PROD_DATABASE.MY_DOMAIN.COM" in the putenv and the database name in the connection function. - Checked the Apache config ##ORACLE ENVIRONMENT ORACLE_HOME=/opt/ora9/product/9201 ORACLE_BASE=/opt/ora9/ export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_TERM=vt100 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH ORACLE_DOC=$ORACLE_BASE/doc ORACLE_SID=BDB1 TNS_ADMIN=/opt/ora9/product/9201/network/admin export ORACLE_DOC ORACLE_SID TNS_ADMIN
Does anyone have any thoughts????
Thanks for any help,
Paul
