Hello,
I am using PHP4, connecting to a Oracle8i server with OCI compiled in.
In my sample script:
PutEnv("ORACLE_SID=EngDB");
$conn = OCILogon("lchan", "lchan", "EngDB");
if($conn == false)
echo "Error connecting";
I receive in my browser: Warning: _oci_open_server: Error while trying
to retrieve text for error ORA-12514 in
/users/codyc/html/oci8/testoci.php on line 4
Error connecting
In my httpd.conf I have:
SetEnv ORACLE_HOME "/local/app/oracle/product/8.1.6"
SetEnv TNS_ADMIN "/local/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/admin"
What does this error mean?
Also, how do I connect two a remote Oracle DB, i.e. what is the syntax
for OCILogon()?
Thanks in advance
