Usually, we find System or Software that use Apache server, MySQL database and PHP programming language. All of them have been integrated into 1 package, that we knew as XAMPP. XAMPP is great, huh?
Then, I had a new experience to run system that used Apache server, PHP script and Oracle database. I've been using XAMPP 1.7.1, and I didn't want to install another Apache server. And I used Oracle Database 10g XE.
The problem was : how can we integrate XAMPP with Oracle database ?
These are some configurations you should set ::
- open php.ini
- set register_global ON
- set short_open_tag ON
- uncomment extension = php_oci8.dll
- uncomment extension = php_oracle.dll
- don't forget to save the change on php.ini
- then, rename these 3 files :: oci.dll, ociw32.dll and orannzsbb10.dll in \xampp\php and \xampp\apache\bin
- restart the server
Tadaaa, you have successfully set it..
I hope this could help others :D
