Pdo_oci in PHP 7

[wwebdevelop]

I was two days trying to install the extension pdo_oci in PHP7 on a CentOS 7, however when running the command "pecl install pdo_oci" returns me a message saying that the extension is deprecated for version 7 of PHP.

When trying to compile PHP extension as the PHP manual also generates errors.

The concern is, how Yii works with PDO believe that there is no support today for Oracle database. In fact PHP 7 does not support the Oracle database via pdo_oci

I spoke via chat with Wez Furlong, creator of pdo_oci, and he said he no longer works on it for years.

Accessing the page PECL, there is a warning that pdo_oci is no longer maintained: https://pecl.php.net/package/PDO_OCI

Only with the OCI8 extension could not connect to the oracle. Is there any way to do it?

I think that would be the time Yii incorporate into your core something that circumvents this issue. Or in the case of Oracle, using the OCI8 - that developed and actively maintained by Oracle.

Have you tried PHP PDO drivers such as https://github.com/yajra/pdo-via-oci8 ?

[wwebdevelop]

I'll try this: https://github.com/apaoww/yii2-oci8 ... Is it good?

But anyway, I think this issue critical to the global adoption of yiiframework

[samdark]

I have no idea if it's good. If it is, please confirm it here. We'll add it to offical guide.

I tested both and had problems in CRUD and to connect to Oracle.

Unfortunately, they are not fully ripe libraries.

PHP 7 and YiiFramework without access to Oracle database via PDO layer :)

@wwebdevelop you can compile the extension

Hello df2, I tried to compile with PHP but gave error.
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib64/php/modules/pdo_oci.so' - /usr/lib64/php/modules/pdo_oci.so: undefined symbol: php_pdo_register_driver in Unknown on line 0

@wwebdevelop if it matches your setup you can try this:

/usr/local/php7/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012/oci8.so
Download oci8.so.zip

[wwebdevelop]

The OCI8 extension is installed.

I can not is to install the pdo_oci

Try this manual. I did not test it on PHP7, but maybe it will work

[wwebdevelop]
