help: php4 and personal oracle 7

[Anon]

i've installed php4 and personal oracle 7 on my windows 98 desktop unit. i am trying to link php4 to the personal oracle but i couldn't connect to it.

i've changed the php.ini file to the lines below but still it won't work.

extension_dir=c:\windows\system
extension=php_oracle.dll
extension=php_oci8.dll

i created a test page just trying to connect to the database but it failed giving me this error message all the time

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in C:\project\oracle\index.php on line 12

the personal oracle database is already in service, just for your information .. 🙂

i am not sure what is the problem, that is why i am requesting some help from you guru
out there .. thank you very much

You shouldn't be using the OCI* functions, these are for oracle 8.
You should use the Oracle functions Ora_Logon, Ora_open and so on.
