I am trying to use a program written in PHP but connect to an Oracle database. We have a function as follows: function dbconnect($db, $username, $password) { global $siteadmin; global $db; // $bob = @mysql_connect($db, $username, $password); //$bob= oci_connect($username, $password, $db); // mysql_select_db($db, $bob); $bob = oci_connect("xxxx", "zzzz", "devl"); echo $bob; return $bob; } where xxxx is replaced with a username and zzzz is replaced with a password. We get the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: oci_connect() in /www/WEBUSERS/ics2004/public_html/PHP/Project Manager/dba_copy(1).php on line 52 Line 52 is $bob = oci_connect("xxxx", "zzzz", "devl"); Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error?
