#39888 [WFx]: PHP 4.4.4 does not compile with Oracle OCI8 instant client

ID: 39888 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: Martin dot Schnoy at hydro dot com Status: Wont fix Bug Type: OCI8 related Operating System: AIX 5.3 ML05 PHP Version: 4.4.4 New Comment: Works just fine on AIX, Solaris and other weird OSes using the way I've described. Fix your linker or ask Oracle to provide dynamic libraries instead. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 11:08:53] Martin dot Schnoy at hydro dot com I tried that already last December. Here is an extract of my posting to Orcale SR 6032016.994: I linked libclntsh.a as libclntsh.so and libclntsh.so.10.1 and compiled PHP 4.4.4. There were no errors at compile time. However, there was an error when Apache 2 tried to load the PHP module: httpd: Syntax error on line 53 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so into server: rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIInitialize was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so (), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIEnvInit was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIHandleAlloc was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIErrorGet was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIHandleFree was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCITransRollback was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. rtld: 0712-001 Symbol OCIDescriptorFree was referenced from module /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found. 0509-021 Additional errors occurred but are not reported. This is because libclntsh.a is in fact no shared library. It is a static library that can not be used as a shared library. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 10:53:07] tony2001@php.net Then create both .so and .so.10.1 as symlinks to .a. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 10:31:56] Martin dot Schnoy at hydro dot com There is no /usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so, only a /usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.a. Orcale does not ship libclntsh.so with instant client for AIX. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 10:20:48] tony2001@php.net >Configure failes because it does not find >/usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so.10.1 ln -s /usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so /usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so.10.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 10:10:39] Martin dot Schnoy at hydro dot com I replaced the oci8 extension that was shipped with PHP 4.4.4 by the latest version from PECL, ran buildconf --force and called configure with parameter --with-oci8=instantclient,/usr/local/instantclient10_1. The result was the same as with the originally shipped oci8: checking for Oracle (OCI8) support... yes checking Oracle Instant Client directory... /usr/local/instantclient10_1 checking Oracle Instant Client SDK header directory... /usr/local/instantclient1 0_1/sdk/include checking Oracle Instant Client version... configure: error: Oracle Instant Clien t library version not supported Configure failes because it does not find /usr/local/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so.10.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
