I've rebuilt the PHP rpm with mssql support numerous times. Not hard to
do and oracle is no different. You will of course need the oracle
client libraries installed before rebuilding. RedHat's php RPM looks
for the existance of oracle-instantclient-basic RPM so get that or, if
you used the .tar.gz, comment out the Require in the .spec and make sure
the php configure knows where the oc client is.
As root:
up2date --get-source phpmkdir $HOME/rpm
As non-root user:
#Setup personal rpmbuild enviro:
mkdir $HOME/rpm/SOURCES
mkdir $HOME/rpm/SPECS
mkdir $HOME/rpm/BUILD
mkdir $HOME/rpm/SRPMS
mkdir $HOME/rpm/RPMS
mkdir $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i386
echo "%_topdir $HOME/rpm" >> $HOME/.rpmmacros
#Now install the SRPM, sources and spec file
#will be installed in $HOME/rpm
rpm -Uvh /var/spool/up2date/php-4.3.2-24.ent.src.rpm
#Now we're ready to rebuild php with Oracle support
cd $HOME/rpm/SPECS
rpmbuild -bb --define 'oracle 1' php.spec
this will generate your new PHP rpms. All you should really need to
install is php-oracle since the others should be identical.
