When you su root to start apache check your environment variables, i usually log in as oracle user then i use su command so the root user still possess the env variables needed, but right now i have an issue that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is simply erased when i su, i don't know why and this block me from being able to use PDO_OCI or oci8, so i edited apache2ctl script and added the line 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/oracle/libs/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' That allowed to be able to use oci8 but i am still stucked with PDO_OCI for 3 weeks already complaining about OCI_INVALID_HANDLE error message.
I hope the method i explained will help you Jerôme Kaluza Service du Sang Service Informatique Croix-Rouge de Belgique rue de Stalle 96 - 5e étage B-1180 Bruxelles Tél. : + 32 (0)2 371 35 27 Fax : + 32 (0)2 371 35 23 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.transfusion.be P.S.: Le temps de lire ce mail, 1 personne aura eu besoin d?une transfusion en Belgique pour survivre.

There is something wrong with your system - please check that LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes the directory with Oracle Instant Client libraries in /Library/WebServer/Documents/test.php on line 14 Oracle connection failed.
