I use the following code to loop through an array of SIDs for Oracle...and attempt to change the password for a given username on each Oracle database...

==================================================
foreach ($names as $SID => $CONN_SID) {
    // make a connection
    $dbconn = @OCINLogon($username, $old_password, $SID);
    if (! $dbconn) {
        $this->dumpError("ORAPASS[OCILogon]");
        continue;
    }
	
    // parse the SQL statement...
    $sql_statement = @OCIParse($dbconn, $sql);
    if (! $sql_statement) {
        error_log("ORAPASS[OCIParse]");
	@OCILogOff($dbconn);
	continue;
    }

    // execute sql query
    $exec_result = @OCIExecute($sql_statement);
    if (! $exec_result) {
        error_log("ORAPASS[OCIExecute]");
        @OCILogOff($dbconn);
        continue;
    }

    // disconnect...
    @OCILogOff($dbconn);
    unset($dbconn);

    // show the results...
    $text .= sprintf ('Success: %s<br>', $SID);
}
==================================================

However, for some reason if the SID I connect to results in the following OCIError:

        Failed: SID1 (ORA-12541: TNS:no listener)

Then, all subsequent OCINLogon or OCILogon calls will result in this error message:

        Failed: SID2 (ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name)

If I restart Apache/PHP and connect to SID2, it will work, but if I connect to any SID after getting the 'ORA-12541: TNS:no listener' error, my Oracle connections all fail.

I experienced the identical problem with Oracle 8.1.5 and various PHP/apache combinations (in particular RedHat9 + Apache 2.0.47 + PHP 4.3.3).
My solution is to place in the loop a (failing) call to
OCINLogon(sameuser,samepass)
**with no SID argument**
after *every* failed logon attempt.
My opinion is that for some reason PHP uses the previous SID/tnsnames arguments without noticing they are changed.
If you omit them PHP is forced to try the (undefined) ORACLE_SID environment variable and after getting the error:
****ocinlogon(): OCISessionBegin: ORA-07200:****
****slsid: oracle_sid not set****
it has cleaned his memory.
Hope this helps.
