Error with oci_connect()

Question

I'm trying to connect my PHP page to an Oracle Database but I keep getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function oci_connect() in

So I downloaded the Instant Client from here , but I keep getting the same error.

Here is my PHP info.

I'm using IIS and I can't use Apache.

Please help!

Answer 1

You need to restart IIS after adding the Instance Client Package.

After restart, must check the php_oci8.dll file in php/ext directory.

And one last thing, disable extension=php_oracle.dll from your php.ini file, its an old and deprecated Oracle extension.
