php-oci8 ol9 - apply RPM from ol8
I need to install the oci8 extensions for PHP on a system running Oracle Linux 9.
I had previously used the method in this blog post to install oci8 on Oracle Linux 8:
I see that there are two php-oci8 packages in the ol8 devel repo, the last being php-oci8-21c-3.0.1.
https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL8/developer/x86_64/index.html
These packages appear to be missing from the ol9 devel repo. However, I was able to use rpm -Uvh on the oci8 package after loading the (database) instantclient 21.16 packages within my ol9 system.
This extension from ol8 appears to be fully functional on ol9.
