Note: Oracle is not supported for new installs; existing installations require Oracle version 12.2 or greater is required.

Install Notes

  • Schema names are case sensitive as of Oracle 12 and need to be in all caps in the PCR-360 config file to avoid errors
  • Included in the installation package is a file named oracle-create.sql; log into the main schema and execute these commands. Also included is a file named oracle-create-metadata.sql; log into the metadata schema and execute these commands.
  • If PHP is upgraded, you may need to update or install the latest instant client. A general rule of thumb is if PHP packages are upgraded, plan on upgrading the instant client as well. This package is frequently updated, so if the server is updated and the application stops working, try upgrading to the latest instant client.
    • To upgrade to the latest instant client, you should uninstall the old version, and install the latest.
  • The Database should be using a UTF8 format and the column lengths should all be Characters instead of Bytes.
    • If your Database was built using Bytes instead of Characters, often each column has to be converted individually, simply running "ALTER SESSIONSET NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS ='CHAR';" will not work because it does not convert existing columns, only new columns added after running the command are affected.
