Oci8 on fedora4

renarios — Sun, 08 Jan 2006 11:52:20 GMT

Hi all,

I installed Oracle 10g on my Fedora Core 4 server and now I'd like to configure oci8 for apache. The httpd rpm for fc4 is already installed on my system. Can I somehow reconfigure the rpm or do I have to rpm -e httpd and manually configure --with-oci8=..., ;make; make install to enable oci8

Thanks in advance!
Cheerio,

Renarios

Shalom renarios,

Oracle 10g shipped with its own Oracle httpd server. If oci8 is not built into either that httpd server or the httpd server that installed with the OS, yes, you will need to compile it.

You don't need to remove the standard httpd software rpm, its enough the configure it not to run.

chkconfig httpd off
chkconfig --list | grep httpd

Hi SEP,

Thanks for your quick reply.
I've searched Oracle and found on http://www.orafaq.com/faqphp.htm how to configure php for oci8.
I would like to create a dynamic webpage with php and oracle.
Does anyone have experiance with what I want to do?

Cheers,

Renarios

Hi All,

I found the solution: Zend Core for Oracle:

Plenty handy with a gui (for lazy people).
