similar to: undefined method `define_a_column' for class `OCI8::Cursor'

Hello. Tired of searching and finding nothing useful. Moving application to laptop for trip. Installed: - Ruby (1.8.6, patchlevel 111) - Rails (2.2.2) - Oracle adapter (1.0.0.9250) - ruby-oci8 (2.0.1) - Oracle 10g Express Edition database.yml: development: adapter: oracle etc... When I start Mongrel (ruby script/server) I get the error above. I''ve looked everywhere I can think of.

I feel stupid having to ask this, but I haven''t found an answer. I installed ruby-oci8 in order to load data from an oracle db into postgres (part of a jsp to rails conversion). In order to run my ruby script I know I need to set ORACLE_HOME and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables to get it to work (and it does work). I''ve tried setting ENV[''ORACLE_HOME'']

Hi, I''m having problems running my rails application in the following setup Unix/Apache/FastCgi/Oracle10g. I had my app running quite happy until I installed the OCI8 driver. When I try to load the app I get in the apache logs the famous "undefined method ''define_a_column'' for class OCI8:Cursor (NameError)" I think the problem is with the fastcgi set up

Here''s a solution to the OCI8 problem shown below (change /usr/local/oracle to your site''s oracle): If this happens when you are running scripts at the shell prompt: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/oracle/lib If this happens in your apache error_log, add to httpd.conf: SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/oracle/lib Kevin Kleinfelter If it''s not documented,

Hi I have looked at google about this error as well as in ruby on rails forums, but I can not specifically locate the exact problem and the solution for it.

But unfortunately whenever I try to create a test application by using "rails testapp", I am getting the follwing errror: $ rails testapp

Hi, I am getting the following error running my rails app: undefined method ''define_a_column'' for class OCI8:Cursor (NameError) Platform: Windows XP Rails: 1.0 ActiveRecord: 1.13.2 Oracle: 9.2 Ruby: 1.8.3 Oci Drive: ruby-oci8-0.1.13 Any clues ?

Hi Guys, I?m getting this error with mongrel_cluster. I am able to start mongrel through mongrel_rails start but the cluster is not working. Initially mongrel_rails wouldn?t work but after I added $ORACLE_HOME and $PD_LIBRARY_PATH variables it worked but mongrel_cluster isn?t working still. The mongrel log file looks like below. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. -----------begin

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me find a solution for my problem. I have an application that I would really much use under wine but I can not install it ;/.

Has anyone experienced "hangs" with the WEBrick/OCI8 combination? The sequence of actions I perform to consistently get WEBrick to hang is: 1. start WEBrick 2. list a table form my Oracle 10g DB 3. startup sqlplus and update a few records in the table 4. go back to my browser and reload the table Here none of the chances I made directly to the table are reflected in the listing.

http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1051&aid=3960&group_id=256 I posted this bug yesterday. Seems to be confirmed, since someone else has the same problem on a different platform (Fedora 4 and Max OS X). So, if you are using Oracle, don''t be in a rush to upgrade to Rails 1.1 unless you have the time to figure this problem out for yourself. -- Lori Olson

Hi, I''d like to try out the oci adapter for rails on a Linux box I have, but I''m having a lot of trouble installing the oci8 library and compiling on that machine. The database I''d like to talk to is an Oracle 9i DB on another rmachine. I''ve downloaded the Oracle 10g instant client (rpm) and tried installing with that but it''s failing to find

I''m trying to get ActiveRecord working with an Oracle DB over the instant client. On a 32bit machine, I can require ''oci8'': Linux xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 2.6.9-78.0.17.ELsmp #1 SMP Thu Mar 5 04:52:17 EST 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux irb(main):001:0> require ''oci8'' => true However, on a 64bit machine: Linux xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 #1 SMP Tue

I am attempting to build php with oracle oci8 support. I've installed the oracle installclient basic and devel rpms. When kicking off the srpm buid I am using the following... rpmbuild --with oci8 --rebuild php-4.3.9-3.8.src.rpm While on an FC 4 box this works and I end up with a php-oci8 pkg that is fully functional. However on CentOS 4.1 the build isn't actually building with oci8

Hello, I am wondering what do people use to connect to an oracle DB ? I've been looking for something like php-oci8 RPM package, but no luck so far. I hate to have to rebuilding PHP on my own just to be able to connect to an Oracle database. Thanks for any help RDB

I''m trying to build the ruby-oci8 with the Oracle Instant Client on OS X. The Instant Client works, and the make seems to be ok with it up until OCIInitialize(). Anybody got this to work? [relevant output] /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby / Users/dmholmes/Desktop/ruby-oci8-1.0.0-rc2/ext/oci8/extconf.rb checking for load library path...

Is rails + oci8 + mac os x intel a winning combination? It appears that oci8 might be a issue.

Hi, I''m able to run a ROR application in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.4 environment, as long as I start my mongrel_cluster via the command line: [chris at localhost ~]$ mongrel_cluster_ctl start I take a look at the two mongrel_rails processes that were just created: [chris at localhost log]$ ps -ef | grep mongrel chris 4781 1 5 05:55 ? 00:00:02 /usr/local/bin/ruby

All of a sudden, on three different systems, the "server_ip_address/sid_name" syntax in database.yml has stopped working for me. I can''t even do a OCI8.new(blah blah blah) statement from an IRB shell. I get "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener", or some variant, depending on how I phrase it. On systems where I have a real deal client installed, and OCI can find the tnsnames
