Hi folks, Does anyone know how to install the OCI8 ruby interface on Debian64 without having to install Oracle? My understanding, from experience with Debian i386, is that you need Oracle (specifically the SQLPlus) installed to be able to compile OCI8. Since my new dev machine is AMD64 running Debian, I''m stuck. My rails applications need to connect to a remote Oracle 10g, but cannot

Howdy folks, Has anyone had any luck getting Oracle''s XMLType to play nicely with Rails? According to the docs, it''s just a wrapper around CLOB. However the ruby-oci8 driver throws an exception about user defined types if you try to query a table with an XMLType column. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, -wilig

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

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

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

With Mongrel 0.3.18, I have not seen a single one of the hangs that I have been grousing about for the past N weeks. Thanks MenTaLguY and Zed! Q: Mongrel loads fastthread, Mongrel loads Rails, Rails loads OCI8, OCI8 requires ''thread''. That means OCI8 is using fastthread too, right? Steve

I have been trying to connect to an Oracle database on a windows machine. I succesfully ran a test program using ODBC to connect to Oracle, but I am out of luck on doing this with rails. I am unable to install the OCI Adapter on Windows and am trying to figure it out. Meanwhile, if anyone could provide me with some pointers or references, I would be grateful. I am finding it a bit difficult in

Hi, After a few days of struggling, I was able to run this command successfully. ruby -r oci8 -e "OCI8.new(''xxx_dba'', ''xxx'', ''//xxxx:1521/ xxxxx.xxx.org'').exec(''SELECT 1 from dual'') {|r| puts r.join}" I got "1.0" as output and I got my prompt back. So, I went back to the RoR app that I am working on,
