PHP and Oracle

PHP and Oracle
- server side language and database management

First and foremost..

I just want to share this…
which I actually used …

Assuming we’ve already installed the Oracle in our OS..

1. Download this

2. Edit the php.ini and then uncomment the ff:
extension=php_oci8.dll
extension=php_oracle.dll

and by this one..we can already connect..

<span style=”font-weight:bold;”>Connecting PHP and Oracle</span>

<?php
global $conn;
$user = “username”;
$password = “password”;
$db=”database”;
$conn = oci_connect($user, $password, $db);
if (!$conn) {
  $err = oci_error();
  echo htmlentities($err[’message’]);
  exit;
}
?>

So that’s it..
