hi !
I am using xampp for windows and the oci8 extension (and all others) are placed in a directory called 'EXT' under the base.
In solaris there is no such directory in /opt/xampp and there is a directory called MODULES but no oci8 module there , so if I uncomment the line "extension=php_oci8.dll" from the php.ini file the oci8 module does not get enabled (checked it via phpinfo.php).
I have two questions :
1- how do I enable oci8 extension in php for solaris ?
2- why on solaris platform the php.ini file contains extenstions like <name>.dll ? because .dll is a windows file type, or is it just symbolic ?
thanks
