Go to xampp\apache\bin\php.ini and open it in your text editor.

Find this line near line 628:
;extension=php_oci8.dll

Remove the comment tag from the front of the line to this:
extension=php_oci8.dll

Save the file and restart Apache so the changes can take effect.

Some reading from a Google search here:
