Well, here are the relevant packages I have:

php-4.3.9-3.12

httpd-2.0.52-22.ent

oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.1-1

 

and yes, I am using the rpms as the php/apache packages were preinstalled when we bought the server, so I’ve just been updating those.  Technically I should just be able to recompile php --with-oci8-instant-client=[dir] and set the environment variables, right?

 

Thanks,

I haven't enabled this patch previously, but a few notes on this - check the version numbers of PHP you're trying to install.  It may not be necessary.  Actually, I just looked at the php.net site and the packages have DEFINITELY been updated to a much newer version than is on the tutorial.

 

Keep in mind, if you're doing RPM files, this may all be different.  I'm not sure what version of the RPM's, etc. you're using, but I generally do source installs for php/apache/tomcat/oracle rather than use RPM's due to said issues.

I’m having some trouble getting the OCI8 extention for PHP working.  I’ve tried following this: http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/notes/technote_php_instant.html (scroll down to “Enabling the PHP OCI8 Extension on Linux”) but it seems I don’t have the directory to apply the patch they are talking about.  Has anyone done this and could help?  We’re running RHEL4.  Thanks,
