Oracle8 ODBC connect , how?

[Anon]

Hi all!

I habe problems to connect to an Oracle8 server via ODBC.

I'm using IIS5.0, Oracle Server 8 and PHP4.xx. I have no problems to connect via ODBC when the webserver (IIS5) and the Orcale Server is on the same machine. But if the webserver and the Oracle Server are on separate machines, the connections fails...

The ODBC connection is ok, i testet it with ASP and the connection was functioning.

I have no clue why this happens, can somone help me...

Thanks in advance...

Best Regards
Leech

How about showing some of your code? It is hard to debug without actually seeing the code.

If you can connect to the remote database with other ODBC tools (example: MS Query), then the problem is most likely how you are specificing the data source in PHP.
