hi all
i installed oracle 10g client in my system i want to connect php with oracle i put extension file in the place i am getting following error when i start xampp

PHP Startup:oci8: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20060613 PHP compiled with module API=20090626 These options need to match

please tell me how to solve this problem

thanks in advance

    The php_*.dll extension files are compiled such that they only work for a specific version of PHP... meaning you can't just download any php_oci8_11g.dll file and expect it to work with your installation of PHP.

    Which version of PHP are you using? You'll most likely need to re-download the full .zip package of that version and extract the extension file from there.

      see my code

      <?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1); 
ini_set('log_errors', 1); 
ini_set('error_log', dirname(__FILE__) . '/error_log_test_display3.txt'); 
error_reporting(E_ALL);
/* oci_define_by_name example - thies at thieso dot net (980219) */

$conn = oci_connect("scott", "tiger");

$stmt = oci_parse($conn, "SELECT empno, ename FROM emp where ename like 'M%'");

/* the define MUST be done BEFORE oci_execute! */

oci_define_by_name($stmt, "EMPNO", $empno);
oci_define_by_name($stmt, "ENAME", $ename);


oci_execute($stmt);

while (oci_fetch($stmt)) {
    echo "empno:" . $empno . "\n";
    echo "ename:" . $ename . "\n";
echo "<br>";
}

oci_free_statement($stmt);
oci_close($conn);
?>
