Database Modules: Where ?

Anon

Could anybody point me to somewhere that all database modules can be downloaded please.

I am having trouble locating the Oracle *.dll files.

Although I have Oracle and PHP (Win32) installed I do not have the Oracle dll files, I do however have the dll's for MySQL, SQL Server, etc., etc.

Thanks !

Wayne,

Try download.swwwing.com. Off the top of my head I'm not positive that the Oracle dll's are there, but I'm pretty sure they are. Hope this helps!!

could you tell me where to find the php_mysql.dll and php_sybase.dll?
thanks

Hanna,

I don't think SyBase is supported for PHP4 on Win32 yet. If you need to use SyBase you'll have to either remain with PHP3, or install both 3 and 4 and then use the appropriate engine depending upon which db you're connected to. To install both 3 and 4:

You need to add in a separate ScriptAlias, AddType, and Action directive for each version of PHP to your Apache httpd.conf file. For example, you could direct Apache to send any files with the .php3 extension to the PHP3 engine while sending .php and *.phtml files to the PHP4 engine.

There is no dll for MySQL since support is built-in to the PHP4 release. Hope this helps!!

Cheers,

Geoff

thank you for your answer. what I was wondering is that why would php3 version support sybase connecting anymore than php4, since when php3 is being downloaded from the php.net it has no sybase_dll.
when I was trying to connect to sybase with php4 using a function sybase_connect the response was that the function was unknown. probably the sybase functions are determined in the php_sybase.dll, and probably it exists since the sybase functions are described even in the php manual, but WHERE CAN ONE GET THE DLL or any other extensions needed to connect the sybase?

Hi Hanna,

You may find that the SQL Server dll works, but I wouldn't like to guarantee it. You would probably need to supply an IP address instead of a server name. I say this because Sybase and SQL Server are essentially the same thing, so it might be worth a try.

Will let you know if I come across a Sybase dll though.

Bye !

Let me know when your connects are successfull.

I have been able to get everything up and running now, but only under PHP3, not PHP4. I get "Could not resolve TNS wotsit" errors evertime under PHP4.
