How can I get the InstantClient configured for a PHP docker image?

Nathan BennettNov 20 2023 — edited Nov 20 2023

I have a pretty basic PHP docker image and I'm trying to install the Oracle InstantClient - I have a copy of the instantclient_11_2.zip unzipped in the container and have created a lib directory and symlinked the libclntsh.so.11.1 file to libclntsh.so . ORACLE_HOME is also set up to & added to the PATH. Everything seems to be working up untill…

When trying to install the oci8 module via pecl :

pecl install oci8 --with-oci8=instantclient,/opt/oracle/instantclient_11_2

I get the following error:

/tmp/pear/temp/oci8/php_oci8_int.h:56:10: fatal error: oci.h: No such file or directory
56 | #include <oci.h>
| ^~~~~~~

From what I've read, there's also an ‘InstantClient SDK’ which may be needed in addition to the instantclient.zip, but I don't see anywhere to download it. The links on the Oracle InstantClient Downloads page don't seem SDK related….

Thanks for any help!
