OCI8 not working
-
I have followed the instructions to install OCI8. I have downloaded the 64-bit Instant Client and copied the DLL files from the extracted archive to the PHP folder and enabled the extension.
However, I receive the following error.
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:/laragon/bin/php/php-7.1.20-Win32-VC14-x64/ext\php_oci8_12c.dll' - The specified module could not be found.
in Unknown on line 0I would really appreciate any assistance.

@Gigabit : Did you really follow this:
https://forum.laragon.org/topic/607/tutorial-how-to-install-php-s-oracle-oci-extension
-
@leokhoa I did follow that but upon some testing, I discovered you need to restart Apache/the web server which you had not detailed. I suggest you add this to the guide.
-
@Gigabit : Laragon auto reloads the web server when you toggle PHP extension.
-
@leokhoa It did not in my case. I think you should add my suggestion to the guide just to be sure

@Gigabit : Thanks. I've updated the instruction
