To anyone who cares:
I recently was able to get the following setup to work correctly with PHP connecting to an oracle
database from Windows:
Remote Server: Oracle 8 (8.0.2.4)
Web Server: Win2000, Oracle 8i Client (8.1.6.0) w/8.1.6.3 ODBC Drivers (separate download) (for odbc
functions)
I have tested it on PHP ASAPI with no problems. I suspect the CGI version will also work.
Used PHPOCI8.DLL extension.
I have TNS_ADMIN, ORACLE_HOME environment variables defined.
NOTE: The earlier client release 8.0.2.4 does not work on Win2k or WinNT4 (at least I couldn't
get it to). The 8.1.6 client is the only one that supports Win2k (future versions will, just
nothing previous will have Win2k support added).
Hope this helps anyone who is having trouble,
RDB
P.S. - I'm happy to give greater details to anyone who wants them
