Php, Oracle on Mac, with strange behaviour

Php, Oracle on Mac, with strange behaviour

am 13.03.2009 08:48:00 von Mark Halling-Brown

Dear List,

I have a puzzler, which I can't seem to fix.
To summarise, I have installed PHP, apache from source and the oracle
client (details below). I then construct a simple PHP script to
connect to my oracle database.
When I run the script from the command line, it works perfectly, and
returns rows from the database.

bash$ php oracle.php
Using : /opt/oracle/instanceclient, ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/
instanceclient
Successfully connected to Oracle.



Buuuut, when I try to view this through a browser, it returns this
error:

Using : /opt/oracle/instanceclient, ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/
instanceclient
Warning: ocilogon() [function.ocilogon]: OCIEnvNlsCreate() failed.
There is something wrong with your system - please check that
LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes the directory with Oracle Instant Client
libraries in/Library/WebServer/Documents/oracle.php on line 25
Oracle Connect Error

Here are the details of my installation and a few things I have tried:

Apache:
Installed apache (httpd-2.2.11) with the following configuration: --
prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=so
No Errors

PHP
Installed PHP (php-5.2.9) with the following configuration:
--with-apxs2 -enable-cli --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/ --exec-
prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/System/Library/Apache
/Modules --enable-shared=max --with-gd=/usr/local --with-zlib --
with-oci8=instantclient,/opt/oracle/instanceclient -enable-layout
=Darwin -enable-mods-shared=all --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/
apxs --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache2/conf --enable-si
gchild
No errors

Oracle Client
Installed Basic + all others in /opt/oracle/instanceclient
No errors

Oracle (Version 11g) is installed on a different server

I will paste the PHP script I am using at the bottom of the mail.
Now, as I said, it is working fine through the command line, so
everything is setup fine, so I figure it must be a permissions problem.
Hence, I chmod -R 755 $ORACLE_HOME and have tried running apache as
lots of different users, but to no avail

Thanks in advance
Mark

I'd guess you probably need this in apache's start up script, not in php
(where that is on a mac setup I have no idea).

You could also try it in your virtual host:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_env.html#setenv

SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient

I agree that using putenv() for Environment variables in scripts is bad.
On Mac, I think you need DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
See http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/bibbs-php-leop ard.html

Thanks for your replies.
In my desperation, I declared those environment variables in as many
places as I could think of. The script (Although I know I shouldnt),
php.ini and also the apache httpd.conf file:

SetEnv ORACLE_HOME /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv ORACLE_BASE /opt/oracle/instanceclient

But given that it works on the command line, but not through the
browser, I think that the environment variables must be set correctly.

Cheers
Mark

Did you restart apache after doing this?

The env variables are set correctly for your user, but not apache's
(which is the problem).

Does the mac have an /etc/environment file? That should cover all users.

Yes, many times

Indeed, I have removed the putenv declarations in the php script and
inserted this:
echo("Using LD_LIBRARY_PATH: ". getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH"));
echo ", ORACLE_HOME=".getenv("ORACLE_HOME");
echo(", DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH: ". getenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"));

And it prints to the screen (browser) correctly:
Using LD_LIBRARY_PATH: /opt/oracle/instanceclient, ORACLE_HOME=/opt/
oracle/instanceclient, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH: /opt/oracle/instanceclient

For completeness, I have also put the variables is /etc/profile, /etc/
bash_profile etc

So it seems that the variables are set up for sure (unless this is
just for php, but I do have these variables in the apache httpd.conf)

This is a puzzler
Cheers
Mark

Unfortunately not although with the stock/supplied Apache web server
there is a plist file you can edit to add environment settings. Edit
|/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist, adding the
relevant environment variable key/value information:|


"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">


EnvironmentVariables

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
path goes here
ORACLE_HOME
path goes here
ORACLE_BASE
path goes here

Label
org.apache.httpd
.
.
.




Then you use PassEnv in Apache to pass these values through to PHP. The
SetEnv directive in Apache is not the same as "setenv" or "export" in
csh/bash/etc. Apache maintains its own symbol table for environment
variables. Unless the OCI8 extension calls apache_getenv those
declarations will have no effect.

Hi Mark,

you are right /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist will
not work in your case, it's for the Mac OS X supplied Apache. In your
case you can edit /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl adding the following:

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/instanceclient
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/instanceclient
ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle/instanceclient
ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/instanceclient
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME

(note: As Chris Jones mentioned LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not used on OS X,
however there is no harm in having it set)

Place the above some where near the top of apachectl, I cannot tell you
exactly since fink will not install and MacPorts does not build SQLite3.
Restart apache and you should see the correct values in getenv() or
phpinfo().

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

Thanks for your help getting this resolved.

FWIW, I just merged a change to the originally reported "Warning:
ocilogon() [function.ocilogon]: OCIEnvNlsCreate() failed." message.
On Mac OS X this now mentions DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/oci8/oci8.c?r1=1.269.2.16 .2.38.2.31&r2=1.269.2.16.2.38.2.32

This fix is incorporated into OCI8 1.3.5 downloadable from
http://pecl.php.net/package/oci8 It will be available with PHP 5.3
(whenever that comes out). Users of older versions of PHP including
PHP 5.2 are encouraged to upgrade OCI8 using PECL.

Chris
