Note - I get this error message when using "ADODB" in config.ini,
when using "SQL" I get the message:
Fatal Error:
lib/WikiDB/backend/PearDB.php:59:Error[256]:Can't connect to database:
WikiDB_backend_PearDB_oci8:
fatal database erorr
* DB error: connect failed
*([ nativecode=ORA-12514:TNS:listener does not currently know of service
requested in connect descriptor]**
oci8://phpwiki:XXXXXX@192.168.0.100:1521/pwiki)
Note: I am an Oracle DBA and the Database PWIKI is up on this machine, and I
can connect to it fine when
using php calls
If anyone is able to get Phpwiki to work with Oracle at all, in any shape or
form, please let me know. Oracle
is a requirement -- I am not allowed to use MySql for the backend. Thanks
Marvin.
