I tried defining the same parameter both as OUT and IN_OUT, to no avail. I also tried calling the same exact procedure using oci_ functions instead of ora_, and everything works! (Unfortunately my web server is sitting on a sco box, so I'm doomed to use oracle 7.3.4 in production...) Looking at the description of the error in oracle manuals, I think this could be a pbl in the use of pro*C (well, whatever the php oracle extension is written with), but I might be wrong ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=11550&edit=1
