PHP Oracle connection

[tonedef]

I'm having a proplem getting my PHP installation to talk to Oracle. I have been running Win2K/Apache/PHP for a while and talking to MySQL. The client has an Oracle database that they would like to get some information from for the web site. They installed the Oracle Client software on the server. I uncommented the Oracle extensions (tried the old and the oci) in my php.ini file. I then double checked the extensions directory path to make sure it was correct and that the dlls were actually in it. I restarted the Apache service via NET STOP APACHE and restarted it via NET START APACHE at the command line. Using phpinfo() I don't see any Oracle information. Also if I try to use the logon from either the old or oci versions I get Fatal Error: call to undefined funcion...

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tone

You need to recompile php to add Oracle support, using either [tt]--with-oracle=[DIR][/tt] or [tt]--with-oci8=[DIR][/tt], replacing [DIR] with the path to the oracle DLL's.

I am not sure how to do this on Win2k, but I would poke around the php site for instructions.
