I'm using web-server with php5-oci8 support. The main problem is that the Oracle Database Manager in the field 'Machine' shows result of `uname -r` without first symbol instead the hostname. I.e ( first string - Apache in native mode, the problem one, the next string is for Apache in Linux emulation - as it should work): Machine Machine OSUser Server SID Status Terminal Type Program .1-RELEASE ELPAY .1-RELEASE www DEDICATED 18 INACTIVE USER ? @.1-RELEASE (TNS V1-V3) BORMAN.CAOTUS.RU ELPAY borman.caotus.ru oracle DEDICATED 41 ACTIVE USER ? @BORMAN.CAOTUS.RU (TNS V1-V3) The problems with identifying server (when several web-servers with Oracle support and concurrent connections to the same database are used) are rather unpleasant.

Is this PR still relevant?
(In reply to Carlo Strub from comment #5) > Is this PR still relevant? In my humble opinion, this really outdated port is candidate to disappear... As well as database/oracle7-client and database/oracle_odbc_driver. An up-to-date database/linux-oracle-instantclient-* port series should be enough to connect most currently operating oracle database versions.

Unfortunatly, downloads links given in the port linux-oracle-instantclient-sqlplus point to a site which returns 404: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html Someone needs to update those ports to the new links.

There are no ports that depend on database/oracle[78]* or oracle_odbc_driver. So they can be removed with working database/linux-oracle-instantclient-*
> There are no ports that depend on database/oracle[78]* or oracle_odbc_driver. Well, there are a few that depend on database*s*/oracle*, so scratch that last comment 8-}
