PHP/Oracle/Apache on Windows mid tier

Hey,
I am trying to set up PHP to connect to my oracle instance using apache.
The PHP/Apache set up is on XP, which I also have a 9i client installed. I am trying to then connect to a database on a linux box. the 9i client works fine, SQL*Plus and everything else works great.
However, when I try to run my PHP I get the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\pear\markondo\test.php on line 12
I have set the php.ini file to add oci extension but am not convinced that it is being pick up, hence the error !
Any help would be really appreciated,
Thanks,
Mark

Try this link:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php
You're right, it probably means PHP is not loading the php_*.dll extension for whatever version of Oracle you are running. The link above has some good comments by users who are struggling with you're problem.

Mid-tier, Infrastructure-tier - Same host or not

I used to remember that on version 9i -> 9.0.2, if install the whole version, Oracle recommended to install mid-tier on one machine, and infrastructure tier on another machine. Does Oracle recommend that different hosts for mid tier and infra tier on 9.0.4 or on new release 10.1.2?
It seems there are some advantages of install these two tiers on the same machine. but different Oracle homes.
Please comment.
Thanks,
Joanne

Oracle+apache+php in windows environment

Hi all, i have a great problem with a new web application written in Php 5 under Apache 2.2.4. using Oracle instant client 10g
The database (10.2.0.2) characterset is WE8MSWIN1252 same for the client. When i insert/update a rows from php with àèìòù characters i see ¿¿¿ with the client (sqlplusw) if i insert/update same characters from sqlplusw i saw ???? from php.
Tried to set NLS_LANG in httpd.conf but nothing is changed. Could anyone help me ?
Thanks.

What platforms are you using here, for apache/php/oracle client host and the other host where you have sqlplusw.exe?
When having inserted non-ascii characters from sqlplusw, what does the following return
select column, dump(column,1016) from table where ...
After insert from php, what does the same query return?

Exact Match of Windows Fonts on Unix Mid-Tier for PDF, AFM License

Having read the many postings and Metalink articles on this issue is it sounds like I need only the AFM files on the Unix side for Oracle Reports to accurately render the real-estate on the report (for PDF) and that the actual report/fonts will be rendered on the (Windows) client side. My question is: Does it violate the license of Microsoft fonts to generate the AFM files and deploy them on the Unix mid-tier since these are only the "metric files"? If not, has anybody actually purchased the licenses to put, say the Microsoft Office font set, on a Unix Oracle Reports box? Any problems or issues if you did?
Thanks

Thanks for the response Melissa
Why did you abandon the installation on windows then?
Could you get every component working on windows prior to moving over to Linux?
If you had everything working on Windows could you please tell me what setup you had i.e. what operating system, how much RAM etc.
I know you kindly gave your number so I could call you about this but I'll have to check with my boss before calling as I notice you are calling from the US.
We are only a very small oracle software development firm (in the UK) looking to add Collaboration Suite to our Portfolio.
Thanks again

NTLM module for oracle 10g Release 2 Apache on Windows 2003

Hi,
I want to implement autologon on my HTML DB application depending on the Windows username. I understand that I can implement this feature with the Apache module modntlm.
Is there anyone who has got this working on Windows 2003 Server in combination with Oracle 10g Release 2 Apache on Windows 2003.
Which version NTLM software do I need and where can I download the version for Windows 2003 server?

Nothing fantastic, we have the username/id passed in from the linking application (company intranet) as part of the URL. The process is invisible to the end-user. Possibly not ideal if you want really tight security/authentication, but it was sufficient for our needs, and the problems we had previously where users were unable to use the application have disappeared. I'd like to know the reasons for the problems we had with mod_ntlm (running on AIX), but it was more important to
me to deliver a working app than to spend time resolving probelms in 3rd party software.
Cheers.

Oracle AS mid-tier for J2EE

I have a doubt as to if Oracle AS mid-tier is required for our platform which is basically a Java J2EE application. I guess, the Oracle application server is enough to be installed and the Oracle AS infrastructure is not required to be installed for a Java J2EE application.
I hope, my question is clear.
Please, help in solving the doubt.
regards

Again, if you have a pure J2EE application that does not have any database dependency then all you need is b).

At the same time I have an OC4J_BPEL container within my mid-tier but I cannot connect to my BPEL console and I am not certain what else I am missing
Does anybody know how to circumvent this deployment failure?

Frank I assume you have now succesfully installed the schemas in your 10g database and went on to install BPEL on the AS midtier. I assume you have the 10.1.2 production midtier (j2ee & webcache) installed?
Please add the relevant part of the install log file.
Sandor,
Thanks for your prompt response.
Yes I was able to install irca.zip file - indeed there was java command line example in there.
And yes I have a mid-tier installed. It seems that a part was succesfull since I have an OC4J_BPEL container.

The reason for that could be that I need to startup the BPEL server. But that would confuses me since the oc4j container is running and I can connect to the BPEL console. At the same time if I look in the startorabpel.bat the olite lines are still active and within data-sources.xml file the Oracle9i lines are inactive - although I have provided the Oracle10g schema during the installation. Hopefully you are still with me and are able to shed some light on this,

Patching mid tier and infrastructure tiers.

Greetings!!!
I am having some questions on patches and hope someone can help me here.
We have two Oracle Application Server machines both on Windows 2003 servers 32-bit and both are on 10.1.2.0.2 release.
The first machine is hosting HTTP Server, Forms (OC4J_BI_Forms), Reports, Webcache (Application/Mid tier). Release is 10.1.2.0.2
The second machine is hosting OID+Metadata repository, Single Sign-On, HTTP Server, and OC4J_Security (Infrastructure Tier). Release is 10.1.2.0.2.
I am now applying patches to both the servers.
Here are the steps I have:
1. Apply the Patch 4505133 on the Infrastructure (10.1.0.5 Patch Set)
2. Apply the Patch 5983622 on the Mid-tier. (10.1.3 patch set)
I have already completed step (1). I patched the infrastructure database from 10.1.0.4 to 10.1.0.5.
Am I missing the other step to patch Infrastructure tier components? Should I also patch the HTTP Server and the Oracle Home on infrastructure tier? I am not talking about the infrastructure database here. I am already done with that step.
If I only patch the Mid Tier with #5983622, then won't the mid tier will be on 10.1.3 release and infrastructure components (HTTP Server, SSO) will be on the same old 10.1.2.0.2.
The primary requirement is that I need to upgrade HTTP servers on both the tiers to the same level. Can you suggest me the equivalent of patch 5983622 for infrastructure tier and the way forward? Will appreciate any answers!!! TY.

Hello,
I think u are mixing some things here.
In order to apply 5983622, u have to update database version is 10.1.0.4 to 10.1.0.5. (patch 4505133) That must be done before patching the two homes of Application Server.
Patch 5983622 is for Application Server. U have to apply it on Infrastructure Tier and on Application/Mid tier Home, in order to update Application Server from 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3.
regards,
Pedro

Unable to Start Oracle Apache after SSL implementation

Hi,
We are on Oracle EBS 11i(11.5.10.2) on Windows 2003(32-Bit)
We want to implement SSL for HTTP server. I tried this on our test instance by following +11i: A Guide to Understanding and Implementing SSL for Oracle Applications [ID 123718.1]+
After implementing SSL, Oracle Apache is not starting and gives "Service didnt report error". I expected the adapcctl.cmd to prompt for password. I understand that in Unix Apache must be started as root in SSL mode. Is there any specific I need to do for Windows? After reverting the context file to the original file and running autoconfig Apache is starting normally.
Please let me know if I had to anything Windows specific.
Rgds,
Thiru.

Thanks.
I did all that is mentioned in Note: +11i: A Guide to Understanding and Implementing SSL for Oracle Applications [ID 123718.1]+. Also referred to +Troubleshooting SSL with Oracle Applications 11i [ID 300969.1]+.

Move Mid-Tier onto another server

Hi all
The infrastructure (OracleHime1incl IASDB) and mid-tier (OracleHime2 portal and OracleHime3 discoverer) 10g Rel2 are installed on a windows 2003 server.
I would like to know how to move the mid-tier (Portal and Discoverer) onto another new windows 2003 server thus improving performance. The server is used solely for reporting. Portal uses "portal providers".
Or would it be better to move the infrastructure?
Is there documentation on this?
Thanks

The Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide describes how to move the Infrastructure to a new host. See:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13995/chginfra.htm#i1011823

BPEL mid tier

I followed the "hellow" sample application for BPEL using jdeveloper 10.1.3 -- I t deploys find to the local OCJ4 instance (standalone version)
and executes find. (e.g, the BPEL process console lets me execute and it displays the test form to capture the input.
the issue is when I deploy the process to the a mid tier OC4J congiguaration environment (e.g, a different server runing the SOA suite), the test form
will not display the payload input for me to enter the string to concatenate to the hellow process. Also if I select to dispaly the xml format instetad the html format -- nothig gets display
My Stand alone SOA version is 10.1.3.3.1 -- running on windows XP service pack 2 IE 6.0
THe MIDTier version is also 10.1.3.3.1. running on windos server 2003 IE 6.0
any help will be greatly appreciated
Note - other samples in the bpel sample directory - execute just fine in the stand alone environment
ruben

I was able to test the samples (hellow, help desk request) using the ORACLE Application Service "test web services" feature under the AS admin application options.The sample webservices displayed the payload and executed correctly. The OAS is also running as part of the mid tier configuration
So I can only conclude thet either the BPEL process console did not get installed properly (even though all other features ae working properly, or there is a bug on the console
I plan re-installed the full mid -tier suite in the near future an retest - I will reply to this tread after re-inatlling the full mid tier apps
For now, I can develop and test using the stand alone JDEVELOPER config, along with the OAS test web service feature in the mid tier
PS: Thanks for you reply

Cannot install BPEL PM mid-tier flavor (2nd option) from beta3 drop

On the instance repository information screen You have to provide orabpel and mid-tier ias_admin connect information. It pre-requisites an already populated bpel schema. Although I have run the scripts domain_oracle.ddl and server_oracle.ddl the following message appears when you press next in the OUI:
Altert: The OracleAS infrastructure database has not been upgraded with the OracleAS BPEL PM 10.1.2 schema....
Subsequently I cannot continue - any idea how to circumvent this message?
Again I think I have a complete orabpel schema

Hello Frank,
we were running into the same problem, you can install the middle tier version only if you have setup up all the BPEL needed tables, views, procs in your database. With the beta3 ships a compressed file called irca.zip. It contains the IRCA ( Integration Repository Creation Assistant ). You need to run this assistant before the middle ware installation against your db. Following the db is prepared to be a repository for you BPEL middle ware.
Hope this helps.
Bye,
Chris

OC4J 9.0.3 Standalone and 9iAS 9.0.2 mid-tier

We are currently running Forms9i and Reports 9i services on a mid-tier installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.2. (Solaris). We have also developed some JDeveloper 9.0.3 applications that need to be deployed onto the same server. I understand from previous discussions on both Metalink and OTN Discussion Forums that it is not possible to upgrade the OC4J components of the mid-tier installation to 9.0.3 as the Forms9i and Reports 9i services are only certified to work with 9iAS 9.0.2.
My next question is can I install Oracle9iAS Release 2 OC4J 9.0.3 standalone components into a separate ORACLE_HOME from the mid-tier 9iAS 9.0.2 in order to deploy the JDeveloper 9.0.3 applications ?.
Regards,
Chris

hello,
i am not sure how you invoke report services from your java application. i assume you are using a URL to access the report. in that case your application will still be able to point back to the 902 servlet to access reports services.
regarding the use of classes on the 903 application : reports services can only access classes that are in its classpath. so if you can put the classes you need in reports' classpath defined by the environment of the 902 instance you should be able to access it.
you might also look into our Thin Client that is available here on OTN. http://otn-stage.us.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/Tools/index.html
