PHP 4.0 Bug #4401: Can´t use German umlauts with Oracle 8.1.5.0.2

From: sels@diewerber.de Operating system: Red Hat Linux 6.1 PHP version: 4.0 Release Candidate 2 PHP Bug Type: Oracle related Bug description: Can´t use German umlauts with Oracle 8.1.5.0.2 - we have problems running php4 RC2 and Oracle 8.1.5.0.2 on an Red Hat 6.1. Although we set NLS_LANG via httpd.conf (SetEnv NLS_LANG american_america.WE8ISO8859P1) we can´t insert or select german umlauts from the database. SQLPLUS works fine, so it is definitly a php4 problem. config line : ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-safe-mode --enable-track-vars --enable-xml --with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib --enable-sysvsem --e nable-sysvshm --enable-trans-sid --with-tiff-dir=/usr/local --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --with-pdflib=/usr/local/src/pdflib-3.0 --wit h-mysql=/usr/local/ --with-oracle --with-oci8 --with-ldap --with-imap --with-ftp --with-gd --enable-safe-mode --enable-track-vars -- with-apache=../apache_1.3.12 --with-ttf --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/conf --disable-debug
