NYCPHP Meetup

[Nathan Lavertue]

Yea... pretty certain. We had tried to setup the dev Oracle
environment too... (on Mac OS X) but it was getting too
complicated, and I was able to access the db remotely... and
since I had configured PHP with the Oracle libraries that *did*
get installed... things should be ok.  We seemed to have some
issues, possibly, with the Apache setup. I had to add the
following to the apachectl binary file...

ORACLE_HOME=/Users/oracle/Source/9iR2
export ORACLE_HOME
TNS_ADMIN=/Users/oracle/Source/9iR2/network/admin
export TNS_ADMIN

... we get some kind of connection, but the query seems to be
*stuck*.

Thanks... we'll be keep on rollin' here.
