RE: [PHP-WIN] Trying out Oracle 8 calls.

Dear Peter, This is an Oracle problem. I wish I could help you more, but I just hollared to our Oracle DBA and he fixed it... Our method of attack went like this: 1) make sure you can hit the Oracle server from the webserver by pinging it 2) double check the Oracle connection with SQL Plus 3) Use a VERY simple SQL command when testing the Oracle logon 4) MAKE SURE you are using Oracle Client 8.1.6 on the webserver (free to download) --------------------- John Asendorf - jasendorf@lcounty.com Web Applications Developer http://www.lcounty.com - NEW FEATURES ADDED DAILY!
