Hello folks.

I’m new in Ruby also ROR.
I installed oracle intant client and test it it works fine. Now I wanna
connect to oracle db. But its got some error. like this
custom_require.rb:36:in `require’: cannot load such file – oci8
(LoadError)

my code is here.

require ‘oci8’
oci = OCI8.new(‘user’,‘pass’,‘ip:port/sid’)
oci.exec(‘select * from table’) do |record|
puts record.join(’,’)
end

Pls help me. What’s wrong ?

Installation failed due to error

For installing that ruby-oci8 gem u need

  1. instantclient-basic
  2. instantclient-sdk
  3. u need to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH of that path
  4. then run bundle install
