php with Coolstack 1.1
Greetings all-
I've successfully gotten php scripts to talk to my Oracle databases using oci8. I compiled the oci8.so module against the 32 bit Sparc Oracle Instant Client using phpize, so I didn't have to recompile all of php.
I can also connect to mysql databases to my heart's content.
I'm having an odd issue and don't know where to begin tracking it down. Basically, I can put a php script on my server that accesses any database and it will work. However, if I modify a script, say to pull last names instead of first (mysql or Oracle), the script output will not change until I restart the Apache web server.
Basically it looks like anything that php generates when talking to a database, as well as many error messages, don't change (when I modify the files themselves) until I restart Apache. I can even modify a file, click reload in my browser (or on another computer), and it won't change.
I can then delete the source file, click reload, which point I get a file not found 404 error. If I then create a new script php script with the same name on the server, then click reload (on the page with the 404 error), I'll then get the output of the original script.
Very bizarre. I'm not sure if it's apache or PHP, but I can't get a handle on where to start looking. Any pointers are appreciated.
Cheers-
John
