ID: 46377 User updated by: phsanghvi at gmail dot com Reported By: phsanghvi at gmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment:
I am sorry to see such a late, and impolite response !!! Immediately after posting my request, I had modified php_oci8.dll, so that it does not look for oci.dll, but for another file (I changed it to ocp.dll), and then renamed oci.dll of newer version to ocp.dll. My application has been working fine since then. Your action of putting the status as "Bogus" is highly disappointing. Instead of considering the suggestions of people, you are trying to discourage them. I faced a unique situation, where I had to use PHP with Oracle Instant Client, and was constrained to use older Oracle version also on the server. I made a suggestion for overcoming such a problem, but your arrogant approach is incomprehensible. Sorry to see developers like you. Shame on you.

If the first Oracle in %path% is of version 9 or less, extension is enabled, but it does not work. IMO, 'php_oci8.dll' should be modified to read the location of 'oci.dll' from 'php.ini' file, where user should set it. This will help in using multiple Oracle clients and multiple applications togather. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46377&edit=1
