From: jjackson at medai dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.1.2 PHP Bug Type: OCI8 related Bug description: oci_connect() is not returning a valid resource....??
Description: ------------ The PHP documentation has led me to believe that "oci_connect() returns a connection identifier needed for most other OCI calls" (verbatim from the docs). For the sake of simplicity in this example, I just want to connect then close the connection. However, my call to oci_close() doesn't like what oci_connect() returned.....thinking it's a boolean value instead of the "resource" as shown at: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.oci-connect.php I know it's actually talking to the server because it gives me a logon failure when I use an invalid username/password. Reproduce code: --------------- #!/usr/local/bin/php <? $conn = oci_connect('username', 'password', '//server:1521/dbname') || die("Could not connect to Oracle database"); var_dump($conn); oci_close($conn); ?> Expected result: ---------------- to not get the warning I am seeing. Actual result: -------------- bool(true) Warning: oci_close() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /my/problem/script on line 5 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36827&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36827&r=mysqlcfg
