Do you have the appropriate OCI.DLL in your path?

I don't know what exactly you mean with that question?

There is a "php_pdo_oci.dll" in the "ext"-subdirectory. I have not installed third party drivers. This was not necessary for the other DB-Systems (mysql & postgre) either. For Microsoft SQL Server I had to download the driver manually from microsoft and after putting the dll into the ext-path and registering it within the php.ini everything worked fine.

Just the (prepackaged) oracle driver doesn't want to work.

For oci and pdo_oci, you need to install the Oracle instant
client[1].  The documentation needs to be improved in this regard.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
