WampServer

Hello

Enabling PHP > php_oci8 extension from tray icon menu don't make it work.

Tried also manual enabling php_oci8 extension from other php.ini files and get this error.

Warning
---------------------------
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'G:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.13/ext/php_oci8.dll' - %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

I checked if php_oci8.dll is in extension directory and it is available in this directory.


Using
Windows 7 64bit
WAMP server 2.2 with
Apache 2.2.22
PHP 5.3.13

Any idea how to set this up?

Thank you and best regards

You also have to install an oracle client.

The php_oci8.dll is just an interface to the oracle client software.

I have installed Oracle client and I am able to connect to the database with SQL developer client.

When I run PHP script I get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function oci_connect()

Is it possible that there is wrong client installed? I have some old version (about 7 years old).

Can you point me to download oracle client for Windows 7 64bit?

I found [www.oracle.com] but only ZIP package, nothing to install.

Thank you very much

Installed Client (first option from 4)

Exit and start WAMP again.

Hey!

I just came across this topic again (which i see was opened two years ago by myself)

After troubles on Windows 10 I went through the same steps and it still works.

This time I have Wamp 2.5.

While installing Oracle client... if you receive a message
[INS-13001] Environment does not meet minimum requirements

Ignore it and continue. I choosed administrator installation option.

Good luck!
