If Error: PHP fatal error: oci.h: No such file or directory 

ORACLE SDK fix
Some packages may look for 'oci.h' in $ORACLE_HOME/include, or in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/public

The instant client sometimes places the include files, such as oci.h, in /usr/include/oracle/<version>/client.

Inspect your system by running the following commands

ls $ORACLE_HOME
ls -d /usr/include/oracle/*/client
If there is no 'include' directory under ORACLE_HOME, and it is located over in /usr/include/oracle/ , create a symbolic link to assist packages looking for these header files. For example,


sudo ln -s /usr/include/oracle/11.2/client $ORACLE_HOME/include
And then check it is correct

ls $ORACLE_HOME
