Re: need help with php and oracle on xp

Does the oracle extension come with the latest windows binary distribution of PHP? (Probably - it has shedloads of extensions with it.) If it does it'll be in the extensions folder and be called something like php_oracle.dll / php_oci8.dll. If so then all you need to do is uncomment the relevant lines in php.ini in the extensions section. Make sure that php can find the extension files and you're away. (Might need to restart your http server depending on how you have php set up). If the binary distribution doesn't come with the extension you'll have to compile it yourself on XP and you need the advice of a braver man than me!!
