You might be hitting a combination of problems.
I noticed the message "Error while trying to retrieve text". This means that your ORACLE_HOME is not set properly somewhere, and after the ORA-12538 occurs Oracle can't look up actual text for it. Other, more important things are likely to fail if the environment is not set properly.
There's a note about the environment variables and Apache in the Oracle/PHP troubleshooting FAQ:
http://otn.oracle.com/tech/opensource/php/php_troubleshooting_faq.html#envvars
It might give some background that applies to IIS too.
As to why the ORA error occurs - I'm not sure yet. I've seen ORA-12538 with ADOdb 4.10 in scripts that work with ADOdb 3.60. See http://phplens.com/lens/lensforum/msgs.php?id=8330
