XAMPP Linux Apache Oracle

[jkeppler]

I am trying to connect to an Oracle database from a Linux server using XAMPP. The server is remote.

I have tried every possible tuorial online and get a myriad of errors. I have tried instant client, full client, etc. with no luck.

Does anyone have clear instructions on how to get this working?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

MANY THANKS!

Hi friends!

I had the same problem. However, I solved it comment the line ";extension=php_oci8.dll" in the file php.ini and run the command /opt/lampp/lampp oci8 . But I could not connect to Oracle.

I need help please all the procedure for install the oracle client and configure the xampp its ok, but still i get the next error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function oci_connect() in /opt/lampp/htdocs/cnxoracle/index.php on line 4

This is the code:

<?php
PutEnv("ORACLE_HOME=/opt/lampp/lib");
PutEnv("TNS_ADMIN=/opt/lampp/lib");
$c1 = oci_connect("user", "pass", "TNSNAME");
if(!$c1){
echo "Failed';
}else{
echo "Successful";
}
?>
