#1 Oracle Support

[Peter Boling]

Please consider Oracle support in your next release. I am trying to modify rails-prod-win at the moment to get it working with Oracle, but am not having any success. I am currently using the ruby-oci8 project over at rubyforge.org:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-oci8/

But cannot get around the error:
LoadError (Oracle/OCI libraries could not be loaded.):
C:/Program Files/rails-prod-win/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.4/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/oracle_adapter.rb:661:in `oci_connection'

When serving the app with Mongrel or Webrick the libraries are loaded fine... But Apache has trouble. I had the same problem with Apache (2.0, and 2.2 on Windows XP Pro, and Windows Server 2003) before I tried rails-prod-win.
