Purpose: To install oci8 extension for PHP 5.2.5
Tested Plaform: Centos 4, Apache 2.0, PHP 5.2.5 (suPHP)
1, We first need to install the Oracle Instant Client. This howto assumes that the instant client version is 11.1.0.1
Download the the Basic RPM and SDK RPM from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html
2, Install the RPMs:
3, Set env variables by editing /etc/profile
Add:
Also run the those 2 lines directly in the shell.
4, We need to edit the PHP configure file as well...
Add "--with-oci8" without the quotes to the configure options, and add one more line at the bottom:
The line above will include the extra header files during the make
5, Ready to build PHP 5
6, Check phpinfo() and see if oci8 loaded
That's it!
