Config Problem with zabbix 1.4 & Oracle DB

[jonmor]

Hi,

I'm having problem to install zabbix 1.4.2 on Redhat EL4
My problem is that he didn`t detect my php database support (I’ve used php-oci8) I couldn’t find the php-sqlora8 mentioned in the documentation. Here’s my php package :

php-cli-5.2.3-1
php-common-5.2.3-1
php-ldap-5.2.3-1
php-gd-5.2.3-1
php-pdo-5.2.3-1
php-5.2.3-1
php-snmp-5.2.3-1
php-oci8-5.2.3-1 ( require oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.3-1.i386.rpm & libsqlite-3.2.1-1.i386.rpm)

Anyone have an idea how to correct this ?

Thanks

I think you need oracle-instantclient-basic-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm and oracle-instantclient-devel-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm

[albertxiao]

oracle-instantclient-basic-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm has been installed.
If you have installed php-oci8-5.2.3-1, the oracle instantclient has to be installed first.
Anything else?

Check this excelent manual

The manual is very useful.
However, I find out it is not difficult to get PHP&Oracle work.

1. You need to install rpms or you need to build the source code.
2. You need to ensure the TNS_ADMIN has been point to the correct location.
3. It is very possible that you set ORACLE_HOME correctly but PHP just can not find the correct tns file. For this care, my solution is set ORACLE_HOME to a wrong location(you need to set the ORACLE_HOME, but the value of it is not very important, if it is rpm install)
