RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle ... FreeBSd ..

Hi Justin, ODBC will allow you to bypass the Oracle SQL*Net installation - you don't need to have any Oracle files installed on the BSD box. OpenLink's Multi-Tier drivers will work this way for you. There is an ODBC-PHP HOWTO at www.iodbc.org and the drivers are available at www.openlinksw.com Please let me know if you need assistance.

FreeBSd .. Thanks in advance for any help ... I'm running PHP 4.0.4 on FreeBSD 4.1, and I need to connect to an oracle database elsewhere in my organization is it possible to install oracle support without the oracle server installed? Or without some SQL*Net application installed? In other words I want to be able to get to the Oracle database that's on an oracle server, but through PHP/Apache on my FreeBSD box. (Note I know I can get Oracle for Linux to work on FreeBSD, but I don't want to do this) Thanks, Justin -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-db-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-db-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
