Bitnami Installers

Hi all,

i have the problem that i get an error if i will activate the OCI8 extension in php.ini

Error message:
“PHP Warning: PHP Startup: oci8: Unable to initialize module\nModule compiled with build ID=API20121212,TS,VC11\nPHP compiled with build ID=API20121212,TS,VC12\nThese options need to match\n in Unknown on line 0”

At the moment there is no possibility to connect to a oracle database.

Please can you help me with this issue.

Thank you
Best regards
Alex

This is a known issue. The 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 Bitnami builds for Windows had PHP compiled with the wrong version of Visual C++. We’re working to get this corrected.

If you don’t have a need for V8JS scripting (which was added to Windows in 2.0.3) you can install the 2.0.2 version instead and then use the instructions on https://wiki.dreamfactory.com to update your DF code to the latest version.

What if I do need V8JS? Does this mean I am stuck?

Nope, V8 works in Bitnami 2.0.4-2, including Windows.

Yes but the issue I have is with the SQL driver, and the fix is to roll back to 2.0.2 which I understand does not have the V8JS feature. So I restate my original question, if I need both am I stuck until a fix is released?

2.0.4-2 also resolves the sqlsrv issue with the incorrectly compiled PHP.
