OCI8 Extension Installation/Connection failure (PHP 8)

User_ZRL66

Case Description:

We would require to access (fetch and push) data from a local software (developed in asp.net with Oracle DB) into a PHP 8 based web application. One is offline, software kind- resides on the clients local machine and another one is pure web application hosted on a VPS server (Linux).

We installed OCI8 extension on the VPS server, but we cannot either connect to the Oracle Database (not connect) or the oci8 module related informations, not being shown in phpinfo file (phpinfo() output file),

We feel that the "OCI8 extension" installation is perfect but some mapping with PHP8 is behaving differently. Please help us...
