Hello,
I need to access Oracle database from Linux Server using Lampp.
My Oracle 9.1 client if now working fine (ok with plsql) and i've just download lampp-dev.
But i'm now lost for rebuilding php with Oracle (no configure file, ...)

If someone could help me with a 'basic' step by step explaination...
Thanks a lot

Hi Froggy!

Two weeks ago I built a first alpha Oracle-Add-On for XAMPP (for Linux). It's not tested very well but if it works it's much easier for you than re-build PHP by yourself.

Installation instructions

1. Download http://www.apachefriends.org/xampp-linu ... 0.1.tar.gz

2. Extract the archive with tar xvfz xampp-linux-oci8-addon-0.1.tar.gz

3. Install the Add-On by calling xampp-linux-oci8-addon-0.1/install

Now restart your XAMPP and take a look at http://localhost/xampp/phpinfo.php
You shoud now see the presence of the oci8 module.

Greetings,
Oswald

Thanks a lot...
My server is down but i gonna try ASAP ...
