Hi Everyone,
I am working on Windows 2000 test and production boxes.  The production was
very out of date, so I began building the test box up.  On the test box I
have Instant Client, Apache 2.0.39, and PHP 5.2.2.  It works fine.  On the
production I just attempted to update it to the same.  It had on it, Oracle
Client 9 and Webserv 1.1.3 (it is a package that has Apache, MySql, and
PHP).  I removed both Oracle Client 9 and Webserv.  I installed Apache, PHP,
and Instant Client.  I could not connect to the database.  I used the same
tnsnames, the same httpdconf, the same php.ini from the test.  I had the
msvcr71.dll and oci8.dll in sys32.  Couldn't connect.  In frustration, and
that its a production box, I tried to rollback to client 9.  Then I got a
PHP error, unable to load php_oci8.dll.  I did not get this error when
instant client is called.  I can use a db utility and connect to the Oracle
Database.

Facts:

Both boxes have Windows 2000.
Production is real server hardware, test is a desktop.
Database to connect to is Oracle 9i.
Test box was a fresh install of OS, production was not.
Production was running PHP 4, upgraded to PHP 5.

If anyone would be able to provide assistance, it would be extremely
appreciated.
