Using Oracle DB with TestLink 1.8.5b instead of MySQL, etc.

[amaximenkov]

Hi!
Sorry, but I haven't found the solution so far.
The question is:
What should be done to put TestLink working with Oracle database instead of MySQL, MS SQL, or Postgres?
What scripts should be added, or existing editing? Any examples?
Very many thanks in advance.

Is Testlink and Oracle on the same server, or is Oracle on another server?

It's been nearly 7yrs. since I've worked with Oracle configurations, but I might be able to help you get the config.

No, TestLink and Oracle are on the different servers. Thank you very much in advance

The original poster seems to have the connection working, was missing the OCI8 module, see this post.

Let me clarify a bit, since I'am not sure I stated the problem 100% clearly.
This post is different from another one of mine, where I speak about integration with Jira, which got oracle db in its backend.

This particular problem is to put TL working itself with oracle db, while installing TL (not with mysql, postgress, mssql....)
