Inadrtantly I indicated my e-mail address to be murthys@us.ib.com.

Kindly make a correction and it should be
murthys@us.ibm.com

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip

Or even better - use OCI8 1.2.2 from PECL.

Hi Tony:

Thank you for your quick response.

1)
I downloaded the code from:

http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz

2)
I was able to build the PHP 4.4.4 with OCI support correctly

I used the following script to build it:


4)
I tested the PHP  with OCI support using the following PHP test script.


////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//  test_oci8.php - A simple script to verify OCI support for PHP
<?php
//$db_id = "fsdba";
$user = "fsdba";
$pass = "fsdba";
$tnsalias = "pitkin";
$tnsalias = "oracle-idb";

// log on to oracle server using data above
if ( $db_id = @OCILogon ($user, $pass, $tnsalias)) {
  //sql query
  $queryOne = @OCIParse($db_id, 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM dual');
  //execute above query
  if(OCIExecute($queryOne, OCI_DEFAULT)) {
        echo 'Congratulations, Connection & Query Successful!!';
  }
  else{
        echo 'Sorry, Query Unsuccessful';
  }
}
else {
  echo 'Sorry, Connection Unsuccessful';
}
?>

Once again, thank you for helping me out with this.
