The Oracle header files are part of the client installation, not the database. Not sure if Oracle 9 automatically installs the client with the database, but you may want to verify that the Oracle client is installed on your server.

I cc'd the list on this, so that others would know that I did try that rout. I also looked in the archive, which also mentioned doing this, but none of the archive searches I have done came up with an answer.
