this patch should fix Unicode LOB problems using callbacks to read LOBs the patch also includes an optimization: using chunk_size*X buffer should speed up LOB reading a bit many thanks to Massimo Squillace <msquillace at sogei dot it> for the patch.
Installing OCI8 --------------- 1. Common requirements. 2. Installing as shared extension. 3. Installing as statically compiled extension. 4. Installing from PECL. 1. Common requirements ---------------------- In case if you use Oracle Instant Client, you don't have to set ORACLE_HOME and most of the other environment variables to build PHP with OCI8 support. The only variables you may have to set are: LD_LIBRARY_PATH - it must include Instant Client libraries dir NLS_LANG - in case if you want to change the default encoding used during interaction with Oracle servers If you use common Oracle Client installation that comes along with the Oracle server installation, you MUST set at least ORACLE_HOME environment variable and make it visible for your web-server BEFORE it starts. Most appropriate places to add ORACLE_HOME definition are: - /etc/profile - /etc/profile.local - /etc/profile.d and others. 2. Installing as shared extension --------------------------------- To install OCI8 as shared extension (i.e. the one you should put into your php.ini) use the following configure lines to configure PHP: a) if you use common Oracle Client installation: ./configure --with-oci8=shared,$ORACLE_HOME b) with Oracle Instant Client: ./configure --with-oci8=shared,instantclient,/path/to/instant/client/lib If you use rpm-based installation of Oracle Instant Client, your configure line will look like this: ./configure --with-oci8=shared,instantclient,/usr/lib/oracle/<OIC version>/client/lib Follow the usual building procedure after that and you'll get OCI8 shared extension (i.e. oci8.so). Add it into the php.ini file like this: extension=oci8.so and don't forget to specify the right extension_dir for PHP to be able to find shared extensions correctly. 3. Installing as statically compiled extension ---------------------------------------------- To install OCI8 as statically compiled module use the following configure lines: a) with common Oracle Client installation ./configure --with-oci8=$ORACLE_HOME b) with Oracle Instant Client ./configure --with-oci8=instantclient,/path/to/instant/client/lib After successful compile, you don't have to add oci8.so to the php.ini, the module will be usable without any additional actions. 4. Installing from PECL ----------------------- TBD
