Not that anybody will ever convince me to use CF with its ugly tags
instead of PHP... I do have to play devil's advocate. :-)

Not necessarily: If one is using a development laptop box with, say,
MySQL or even (blech) MS Access and a production box with Oracle,
*and* is willing to forgo funky Oracle SQL syntax in favor of
portability (perhaps sacrificing performance), it is not unfeasible
to wish for a simple switch from DB to DB.

Sure, if Oracle was chosen for performance reasons rather than
replication or non-technical (aka pointy-haired bosses or "because it
was there") reasons, this would be a foolish way to do things: But
it's not that radical an idea that you'd have Oracle on some hefty
web server but were using PHP to develop some sort of back-end
application for some low-traffic pages and wanted to use PHP to
develop on a different machine sans Oracle. Then just flip the
switch from MySQL to Oracle.

Of course, you can code such a thing readily and easily, and for PHP
to have too much database abstraction... I can't even begin to
envision how that can work internally and be useful without throwing
away all the super-fast native code. Fortunately, I'm not one of the
guys writing the software :-)

Folks have had some trouble with that one about uploaded files being
too large, and while it's fairly easy to *suppress* all the other
error messages, and even that one if you don't mind the denial of
service attack, handling all of them in a clean and efficient manner
is not as easy as it would be with a try/catch mechanism.

I never used try/catch much in C (my C-hacking days were before it
existed, I think), but assuming it's like Lisp's nestable
handler-bind error-catching mechanism, it sure would come in handy...

I've never had a client yet that didn't ask for a site-wide search
engine with their web-site.

And they never seem to understand that distinction between web
scripting language and search engines.

Whether they should or not is debatable :-)

Packaging a search engine with PHP is morally wrong, of course, but I
understand the desire for an all-in-one solution.

The question is why you need to know the number of result rows in advance? If
you really need to know the exact number, the recommended procedure
is to use if viable SELECT COUNT() before running the actual query to
retrieve the result rows.

If it is not viable, you may try to cache all the result rows in an array
until it reaches the end of the result set and then count the number of
rows in the array.

If you just want to know when you have reached the end of result, just call
odbc_fetch_row until it fails.

Try something even simpler:

<?php phpinfo();?>

This tiny little script should spew out a whole page chock-full of interesting information. :-)

You really should use ACTION=samepage.php3 METHOD=POST there, but it oughta work.

This looks like PHP2/FI code, almost... What version of PHP are you using?

If it's PHP3 (or higher) you should not have semi-colons after the if()/else lines.

You also are not switching from PHP mode to HTML mode: So PHP is going to try to interpret your IMG tags as if they were PHP code. Either echo out the IMG tags: echo '<IMG SRC="plaatje_1" ALT="plaatje 1" ALIGN=MIDDLE>1'; or switch back and forth to PHP/HTML for each line: if ($plaatje == 1) ?> <IMG SRC=...> <?php elseif ($plaatje == 2) ?> <IMG SRC=...> <?php . . .

At any rate, the test in your if() statement should have == instead of =.

= will assign 1 to $plaatje, and then return that value (1), and then test that for a boolean result (true), so you'll always see the first image, and never the second.

Then, SRC= should probably have a GIF or JPEG, and the files should probably end in .gif or .jpg for them to be served up properly.

And there simply is no </img> tag at all: IMG is an all-in-one tag, like INPUT.

Oh yeah: There are probably some error messages in your page, but you are not seeing them due to HTML problems. Use "View Source" on your page to see what the browser is *REALLY* getting.

Hi all

I was wondering if anyone has any significant experience of using FastTemplates as I'd be interested in knowing whether there are any performance hits with it. Also, and I'm not wanting to start the big Template debate which happened on this list a little while ago, are there any other template systems for PHP that have been developed?

Thanks

Today all you can try is to pre-process your scripts and install that in the server. They may still steal your code but won't see the source. You may hard code some checks in the code to verify if it is running where it is expected to prevent it from being used elsewhere.

Later Zend will release a real PHP compiler that will be also much faster to run but you'll have to wait for now.

Sounds like a counter...

Go ahead and code what Rasmus gave you for practice, but:

You should be aware that on a high-traffic site, you will run into a condition like this:

Joe Sixpack surfs your site Betsy Buick surfs your site Joe opens the file Joe gets the number Betsy opens the file Betsy gets the same number Joe adds one and writes the number Betsy adds one and writes the number Betsy closes the file Joe closes the file

So only one of the two hits will count.

Actually, it's worse than this: Sooner or later the two open files will collide in such a way that the whole thing will be wiped out! Your counter will reset to 0.

After you've played with this awhile, you'll need to use flock() (which will only scale up a little better before all your visitors are waiting for the counter file to be available) or you'll want to switch to a database-driven counter.

Or, better yet, forgo the counter entirely and use a log-analysis program such as Webalizer or Analog.

Fear not: Not everything that seems as simple as a counter turns out to be so complex :-)

*MAYBE* control-alt-delete like on NT?...

In theory, the PHP script will time out after 30 seconds, unless it's in a really tight loop.

I think outputting a space or something the browser will not interpret as meaningful in whatever context you're in will give PHP the opportunity to kill it if it's a tight loop.

You can create an autostart.inc file (or whatever you want to call it) and put code in there which is executed when a session is created. However, it does not have the session and application onstart stuff that global.asa has.

Since there's an easy workaround, it's probably not on the top of their ToDo list to implement it: While PostgreSQL rocks!, there is still plenty of work left to do :-)

[rant] SQL92 refers to the last multi-platform standardization of SQL in 1992. *EIGHT* *YEARS* *AGO*!!! This is, of course, unconscienable, but what can you expect from closed-source software developers charging 10s of thousands of dollars in an extremely vertical market whose underlying technologies are not really different: They want to lock users into their product, and standardization of SQL would actually require them to face real competition.

Small wonder the SQL-standardization committee has not come up with anything: It's not in the interests of their employers to agree.

I think you are correct that Apache is not maintaining them...

But look into the mod_rewrite article about how to do the same sort of thing using Apache instead of all-PHP solution. Don't know the URL offhand, but it's been listed here frequently.

Write wrapper functions to the two databases to connect/execute your SQL, and put that all in one file, then use those functions religiously to do all your database work.

There shouldn't be much SQL you can write in MySQL that won't work in Oracle, but test each SQL statement as you go in Oracle if at all possible.

I wish that was anywhere near the truth. Oracle is a major pain to deal with. Many concepts work differently.

For instance, In Oracle a database is not the same thing as a database in MySQL. The CREATE DATABASE SQL statement in Oracle creates a new server instance while in MySQL it just creates a new table space in the current database server instance. If you really want to create a new fully isolated table space in Oracle you need to create a new user. That's a smart way from Oracle to make you pay an higher license fees.

But let's talk of simpler things that you user every day. If you don't have a function to count the number of rows in a result set because result retrieval is asynchronous so by the time you start getting result rows the server still doesn't know how many rows there will be in total in the whole result set.

If you want to LIMIT the number of rows that the server returns in a result set, in MySQL it is as simple appending the LIMIT keyword to your SELECT query. In Oracle there is no easy way that I know. You may request as many rows as you need, but if you want to skip a given amount of rows of the begining of the result set, I don't know any simple solution.

I was willing to pay a prize to any solution to do that in Oracle that would work with arbitrary SELECT queries (including those with ORDER BY clause), would not require any non-standard stored procedures and would return the names of the columns with the same names as when you don't LIMIT the returned rows.

That is not all, but to summarize, you'd better stick with an existing well tested database abstraction layer that isolates you from handling all these differences by yourself.

I had an hard time when I developed the Oracle driver for Metabase because all these difficulties, but in the end it resulted in something that will avoid having to recall all the differences all the time.

One thing that I bothered to take particular care that varies a lot between database servers is data formats. For instance each database server return dates in formats that may vary a lot. In Metabase, regardless of the server vendor (Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL), dates are alway returned in the ISO 3166 format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS).

Imagine your surprise if you forgot things like that when you tried to move one database application to another server of a different vendor.

hi to everyone,

i'm pretty new to php so my question is pretty stupid.

i'm implementing an automated news web sites where journalist can add news via web.

my problems are the images. i'm currently coping the image of each news from the temp in a directory called /images/. but if someone will upload two files with the same filename but different content the new one will overwrite the old one.

how can i solve it?

Thank you very much and excuse me for the english.

MySQL doesn't print errors by default, and PostgreSQL does.

You'll need to put an sign in front of the pg_fetch_array, since it is perfectly normal to ask for the next record when there aren't any, but PostgreSQL insists on returning a warning for it. :-(

Just be careful in the future: Always add the after checking the code for other bugs, and if you alter that loop, take out the until it's tested for everything else.

Kinda of a pain, really. Still, if that's my only bitch about PostgreSQL (and it is) I have to admit it's pretty petty :-)

attached mail follows:

The sign would work (as Richard Lynch said below...I didn't have the original message so I had to reply to Richard's message)--leaving the while condition checking for $fila to be false--or it could be coded just a bit differently.

For example:

$sql= "SELECT id,nombre FROM empresa"; $resultado=pg_exec($conn,$sql); $row=0; $numrows = pg_numrows($resultado); // How many times do we loop? while ($row < $numrows) { $fila=pg_fetch_array($resultado,$row); echo "Name: ".$fila["nombre"]."<br>\n"; // Newline char helps when // reading HTML source $row++; }

BTW, I usually do a $row++ at the end of the call to pg_fetch_array(), and thereby save doing the $row++ at the end of the loop. But once one loop is working, they're all just copy & paste after that.

the php3 directory (and subfiles) have the rights of the user IUSR_(comp name).. but the problem seems to be somewhere else.

mysql is running on another server then php. So I assume that if it accept connections from other sites it should also from the one where the php is running...

Try commenting out the regex...

If it's printing \", and you don't want the \, then you must be adding more \ than you need...

You could fopen() the other URLs and spit them back out through your secure connection...

if (ValidLogin){ $fp = fopen('http://someURL'); } else{ $fp = fopen('http://otherURL'); } if ($fp){ while (!feof($fp)){ echo fread($fp, 1024); } fclose($fp); } else{ //Could not open other page... //display some sort of error message }

Once you are getting all the selected values, you'll want to do something like this to make the SQL:

$where = " where category in (0 "; //0 is an invalid ID //But that's okay: //It gets us started. while (list(,$catid) = each($category)){ $where .= ", $catid"; } $where .= ")"; $sql = "select * from categories $where ";

You need to create yourself an ODBC data source on the box with the Access database file.

Go to control panel...ODBC Datasources Click the Add button Select the Microsoft Access Driver from the list of drivers Fill in the dialog

If you gave your datasource the name of "jedrek", you can connect to it with:

$hCon = odbc_connect("jedrek", "", "");

$hCon will return False if the connection failed.

If you have PHP running on a different box to your Access database file, you will need a product like the "Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge 2000" to connect across the network. A free, fully functional version is available for download from:

It sounds like your predecessor had magic_quotes off and you have it on...

At any rate, stripSlashes() should take care of any excess.

Almost for sure you have unbalanced { or } in one of your function definitions.

Open your file in an editor that will show you matching brackets (BBEdit on a Mac, Emacs on Linux, and, errr, I dunno what on Windows).

Or triple-check your indentation and open/close brackets.

The bug which caused php to hang if more than about 4K was posted was fixed after RC1 was released. The current CVS should work fine on NT.

Dear InterBase users!

PHP4's InterBase module has finally reached the stage where it can be called alpha quality. If you are brave and willing to face problems, check out the current PHP4 cvs.

There seems still to be some problems when using several transactions and closing and opening database connections several times within a script, and also occasionally with prepared select queries using parameter placeholders. Due to my current workload, I must rely on your help to track down the situations when they occur.

If your needs are not that advanced, everything seems to be working ok. Seems.

If you are using InterBase 6, you should probably be using dialect 1 databases. I hope to be able to remove this restriction soon. Need to read the docs...

No DLL for Windows yet. Nicolas, I'd appreciate it if you could check if the module even compiles on Windows.

Sorry for the continuing lack of valid documentation... :(

yes you can do that. but what database are you using?

Check the manual for examples to begin with on the basics, connection, insertion and selecting. http://www.php.net/

I prefer to store only the name location of the file in the database but it all depends on your application.

Have a look at the code below.. I've extracted it from a working page on a site I'm developing! It should give you enough pointers to get going

Hi folks,

I want to develop something like an ads server. Every time i click on a link, i must get a different ad.

i can use mt_rand(first_ad_id, last_ad_id). but is this the only way i can achieve it or is there any sort of incremental id i can get? Any help???

Moreover, just try clicking this link below and each time it gives a new ad in the browser. I am totally baffled as to what page the following url calls...

http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/main.auniv.com/;sz=468x60;ord=69?

any suggestions on what the url is doing????

the ad server at doubleclick takes care of finding a random ad for you (and so should probably the ad server you develop do too)

http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/ << 'normal part'

main.auniv.com/ << this part tells the ad server wich server the ad is displayed on (an who should get the $$)

;sz=468x60 << this tells what size of banner you want (they have several)

;ord=69? << the value after 'ord=' is just some random value that changes every time you load the page (by using a timestamp on the server, or javascript in the client) it is *not* an ad id, it is there just to prevent the client from cacheing a previous ad...

if you make an ad server that can be used from several servers, you will end up with something like this. (the ad server takes care of picking a random (or not so random :) ad to show.

if you hust want to display a rondom ad on one server, you can make up a random id/selection in the page itself, and display like a regular image...

Do you think PHP can do this then?

I don't think PHP can do any actions that have to do with mousemovements, only things that are based on type of browser/OS or an form submit.

For things like mouseover actions you'll have to use javascript.

Hi,

I'm having some trouble getting permissions and coding correct on my ISP's server. Basically I have a sensitive folder outside the web tree which is set to 0700 permissions. My ISP has wrapped PHP into CGI so all my scripts run as my UID and user etc.

Everything works fine and if I use another id on the ISP server I cannot view the contents of any of the files in this folder. Howver I have hit a problem and I don't know whether its my scripts or my lack of understanding of Unix permissions :

Some of my pages re-direct to my ISP's secure server - when I use these pages I get a Fatal error opening required ....... error message.

- however if I chmod the required file to 0777 then all works fine. So it seems permission related.

I could accept this if the UID or user/ group was different but its not (or doesn't seem to be) I have executed a getmyuid() and get_current_user() commands and displayed these values on both servers and they are the same!

Please tell me what I am missing - if this nis the wrong list I apologise - I do realise this may be more apache/ unix related.

Thanks

Jamie Beadle

Hello,

I'm running into a problem using sessions with PHP 4 rc1 on a win 2000 server with iis4 using isapi.

What is happening is that as soon as php encounters a session_start() call in a page it completely dies and the page stops, it doesn't hang, it just stops at that point.

When viewing the event log the following error is generated coming from the WAM service

The HTTP server encountered an unhandled exception while processing the ISAPI Application ' php4isapi + 0x1137 wam!SE_TABLE::ReleaseExtension(class HSE_BASE *) + 0x6D6 wam!SE_TABLE::ReleaseExtension(class HSE_BASE *) + 0x1C3F w3svc!_WamDictatorDumpInfo8 + 0x4A5 w3svc!PARAM_LIST::CanonList(void) + 0x2386 w3svc!HTTP_REQ_BASE::BuildURLMovedResponse(class BUFFER *,class STR *,unsigned long,int) + 0x38D6 w3svc!HTTP_REQ_BASE::BuildURLMovedResponse(class BUFFER *,class STR *,unsigned long,int) + 0x3875 w3svc!HTTP_REQ_BASE::TestConnection(void) + 0x828 w3svc!HTTP_REQUEST::ReprocessURL(char *,enum HTTP_VERB) + 0x25D w3svc!DumpW3InfoToHTML + 0xA89 w3svc!DumpW3InfoToHTML + 0x1754 w3svc!MULTISZ::~MULTISZ(void) + 0x182 w3svc + 0x1862 w3svc!ADDRESS_CHECK::UnbindAddr(void) + 0x175 w3svc!ADDRESS_CHECK::UnbindAddr(void) + 0xEF ISATQ + 0x13D1 ISATQ + 0x1281 + 0x1B9518EF '.

I have seen other references to php sessions on NT being very sensitive to the save_path not being correct. I have this set to /tmp but as i'm not sure where php is looking for that i have basically put /tmp directories _everywhere_, still no luck.

Apart from this, the rest of PHP seems to be working really well under NT.

Any help would be really appreciated, Lukas

Just a note to say that I had just released pgp_enc.class, this class builds on Richard Heyes HTML_MIME_MAIL.class and enables the encryption and signing of text messages and attachments. I still have to add support for verifying as well as direct html encryption but I though I would release it now as Im away for a week and a half and a few people were asking about somthing similar yesterday.

You can get it from http://www.phpuk.org/

Hello everyone,

First off, I want you all to know how much I have enjoyed reading the informative way people in this mail list correspond. I have found it very enlightening.

I am having a really tough time finding a way to create a dynamic hierarchy for links. The three variables (ID, name, destination) are held in a mySQL database. I would like to list the names under the hierarchy of each destination. Does this require two db tables? or can it be completed it with a single/multiple SELECT command?

I am currently using a WHILE statement to list all of the names, but this will soon become too large and unmanageable. I have taken a look at the Zend's code gallery and found something similar, but I'm not sure this will do the job.

Any suggestions?

I am assuming you are wanting to stre data in a tree format in one table...yes?

I have done (and haven't had the time to finish) the same thing. Yes it can be done...I used a table similar to:

CREATE TABLE cat ( id mediumint(8) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, value varchar(100) NOT NULL, parent int(10) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, position tinyint(3) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id), KEY parent (parent) );

and it sort of worked....;)

value = the text to display parent = an id (record) which is the parent for this record position = end of tree or not (Y/N, 0/1, etc)....

I had/have it working somewhat...although I am sure there is a better way to do it...

Let me know what you find...

attached mail follows:

The preferred way to set up the database is to normalize it by using two tables, one with destination and a destination index, the second with name, ID, and destination index. The resulting database takes up less space this way.

For the list, you can make one query:

"SELECT table1.*, table2.* FROM table1 JOIN table2 WHERE table1.destination_index = table2.destination_index ORDER BY table2.destination_name"

Then create sections by destination using nested while loops and creating a new destination section each time the destination name changes.

Kathy -

I think my difficulties are due to the fact that I have PHP 4 loaded *and* this is my first contact with PHP. Add to that the fact that I am using Win98 as my "take a look" platform before moving to Linux.

The result appears to be that MySQL is the DBMS of choice for those checking out PHP 4.0 - not Interbase.

Are my assumptions correct?

Why don't you set it to c:\temp or some other existing directory?

I´m going to do a web site with a lot of news... and I will do it with forms from where some journalist will upload the news... the doubt that I have is: is better use a database to store the news, or generate a file for each news? what do you think? I will also use an internal search engine for my site, in mysql..

Some people say: post jobs. Some people say: don't post jobs. Guess someone's going to be offended no matter what. Hopefully the subject will turn away those who are offended by job postings.

The main site was done with midgard, but there's a lot of little things that need updating or integrating. Please call Hugh Kominars at 703-963-1200 if you're interested. He's in Virginia which is EDT for those in other parts of the world.

They're a good group.

Hi all, maybe it's a dumb question, but i haven't found any answer yet, so... I have installed mod_php and apache, and would like to write some little scripts in php outside html pages to run as standalone programs. Is it possible? How should i do it?

Thank you, Duccio.

In general, this should be done with the CGI version of PHP (and rumor has it, you can have both the mod_php and Apache on the same machine). Otherwise you'll need a browser to call the script. At least on Unix you can use lynx with the -dump or -source option to run the script from the command line or from a cron file.

Compile php as a standalone binary and insert #!/usr/local/bin/php -q at the top of your php program and set the executeable bit on the program's permissions - just as you would any shell or perl script

First of all, this is my first attempt at posting to this NG, so please forgive me if I ask questions already answered. I checked myself here and in the archive and couldn't find any reference to what I'm asking.

It looks like I'm having a lot of trouble finding an answer, so I thank in advance anyone who can share a thought on this.

I have a MySQL database that handles a quizzes high scores. Database has name of the quiz, score and name of the player. At the end of every quiz I would like to recommend the player other quizzes, based on what other players played. This is something similar to what Amazon does with books and videos. My logical steps would be: 1) Finding a DISTINCT list of every player who played, say, quiz A. I will call this list of player "A-Players". 2) Finding a DISTINCT list of every quiz played by those contained in the "A-Players" list. I will call this list "A-Players-Favourites". 3) Count the "A-Players-Favourites" list and sort it so that I can have just the 3-4 top played quizzes. 4) Suggest every player who plays the quiz A the first 3-4 quizzes of "A-Players-Favourites" list.

Is there a way to do this using a PHP file? If not, is there anything similar to this?

Thanks very much in advance!

Thank you Bob for your reply. This is what I am attempting to get the results I want (but not quite). This routine is showing the results of only one destination and a list of it's names, and then stops. What am I doing wrong?

$no_sql="SELECT destination,ID,name FROM $table_name ORDER BY destination,name ASC";

$housesresult=mysql_db_query($data_base, $no_sql, $conn); $records=mysql_num_rows($housesresult); $nextrecord=$records+1;

echo " <tr align='left' valign='top'> <td width='10'> </td> <td><font size='5'><a href='houses.php'><br> Houses </a></font><font size='2'>($records)</font></td> </tr> <tr align='left' valign='top'> <td width='10'> </td> <td>";

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($housesresult)) { $housedest=$row[0];

echo " <table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='1'> <tr> <td width='10%' align='center'><img src='../graphics/links/dot_blue.gif' width='10' height='10'> </td> <td colspan='2'>$housedest</td> </tr>";

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($housesresult)) { $ID=$row[1]; $housename=$row[2]; echo " <tr> <td colspan='2' align='right'><img src='../graphics/links/dot_red.gif' width='10' height='10'></td> <td><a href='houses_02.php?houseID=$ID'>$housename</a></td> </tr>"; } echo " </table>";

"SELECT table1.*, table2.* FROM table1 JOIN table2 WHERE table1.destination_index = table2.destination_index ORDER BY table2.destination_name"

Then create sections by destination using nested while loops and creating a new destination section each time the destination name changes.

Hello everyone, First off, I want you all to know how much I have enjoyed reading the informative way people in this mail list correspond. I have found it very enlightening. I am having a really tough time finding a way to create a dynamic hierarchy for links. The three variables (ID, name, destination) are held in a mySQL database. I would like to list the names under the hierarchy of each destination. Does this require two db tables? or can it be completed it with a single/multiple SELECT command? I am currently using a WHILE statement to list all of the names, but this will soon become too large and unmanageable. I have taken a look at the Zend's code gallery and found something similar, but I'm not sure this will do the job. Any suggestions? Bryan

attached mail follows:

You have a nested call to mysql_fetch_row. As such when your routinue exits the house output (inner) while loop there are no further rows to fetch in the destination while (outer) loop.

Try something like, it's not elegant but it should work :-

$housedest=""; while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($housesresult)) { if($housedest!=$row[0]) { if(!empty($housedest)) echo "</table>";

$housedest=$row[0]; echo "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='1'> <tr> <td width='10%' align='center'><img src='../graphics/links/dot_blue.gif' width='10' height='10'> </td> <td colspan='2'>$housedest</td> </tr>"; }

$ID=$row[1]; $housename=$row[2]; echo "<tr><td colspan='2' align='right'><img src='../graphics/links/dot_red.gif' width='10' height='10'></td> <td><a href='houses_02.php?houseID=$ID'>$housename</a></td> </tr>"; }

I added the entry into the tnsnames.ora file on my server to talk to the database server. Now what do I do. The Oracle functions in PHP still can't connect to the database. The phpinfo() function prints rows for "Oracle" and "OCI8", but they are blank. The oracle dll's have been added to the php.ini file.

Any ideas? I use PHP 3.014 (Win32 binary) on NT 4.0. Thanks again. -Zack

Hey Zack,

You will need to configure Net8 to get from the webserver to the database box. Basically, if you can use sqlplus (or whatever GUI client that Oracle ships for NT) and get to the database, you are golden.

This is done by adding an entry in the tnsnames.ora file (which, in typical installations, is scattered all about the filesystem). Sadly, for each Oracle product you install (Oracle8i, Enterprise Manager, Application Server, etc.) there will be yet another tnsnames.ora file to deal with. I always "Find file..." for tnsnames.ora and copy the edit to all of the files.

Let me know if you still have trouble, ok?

Let me know how the Oracle thing goes.
