#37220 [Com]: LOB Type mismatch when using windows & oci8.dll

ID: 37220 Comment by: contact at infochallenge dot com Reported By: lbouteille dot ext at francetelecom dot com Status: Feedback Bug Type: OCI8 related Operating System: Win 2000 PHP Version: 5.1.2 Assigned To: tony2001 New Comment: The oracle documentation says InstantClient is required for connecting php to a remote oracle server, what about Local Oracle? Installing Instant Client on an already existing oracle server doesn't help, instant client was designed for remote machines Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-03 14:11:14] tony2001@php.net Oracle Client and Oracle INSTANT Client are different things. OCI8 Win32 builds are done using Instant Client, so you can't use OCI8 dlls with outdated Oracle8 and Oracle9 client libraries anymore. You need to install Oracle Instant Client 10.x (or native Oracle Client 10.x, but it doesn't make any sense, since installing instant client is much more easier). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-03 13:57:29] lbouteille dot ext at francetelecom dot com It's installed, I can find the OCI.dll in the oracle client BIN folder.. the ORACLE_HOME var is set... What's next ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-03 13:52:11] tony2001@php.net Yes, Oracle Instant Client is required. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-03 13:43:14] lbouteille dot ext at francetelecom dot com I can't start my Apache Server with the latest snapshot.. say something wrong : can't find OCIStmtPrepare2 in the OCI.dll did something wrong ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-01 07:12:55] tony2001@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.1-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.1-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
