If the Oracle Database is on the same machine as PHP, the database software already contains the necessary libraries. When PHP is on a different machine, use the free » Oracle Instant Client libraries. For details refer to the OCI8 Requirements section.
Use --with-pdo-oci[=DIR] to install
the PDO Oracle OCI extension, where the optional [=DIR]
is the Oracle Home directory. [=DIR] defaults to
the $ORACLE_HOME environment variable.
Use --with-pdo-oci=instantclient,prefix,version for an Oracle Instant Client SDK, where prefix and version are configured.
// Using $ORACLE_HOME $ ./configure --with-pdo-oci // Using OIC for Linux with 10.2.0.3 RPMs with a /usr prefix $ ./configure --with-pdo-oci=instantclient,/usr,10.2.0.3
The constants below are defined by
this driver, and will only be available when the extension has been either
compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime. In addition, these
driver-specific constants should only be used if you are using this driver.
Using driver-specific attributes with another driver may result in
unexpected behaviour. PDO::getAttribute() may be used to
obtain the PDO::ATTR_DRIVER_NAME attribute to check the
driver, if your code can run against multiple drivers.
