Setting up Oracle to work with Database component
=================================================

Suppose you have a running Oracle instance named "orcl" which you can access as
user "scott" with password "tiger", and you want to run Database component on
it.

Here are several steps to achieve this goal.

Setup a database user
---------------------

You must make sure you have a user with the correct privileges, here we use the
user "system" (DBA) with password "sys"::

	$ cat <<EOF | sqlplus system/sys@orcl
	CREATE USER scott IDENTIFIED BY tiger QUOTA UNLIMITED ON SYSTEM;
	GRANT CREATE    SESSION   TO scott;
	GRANT CREATE    TABLE     TO scott;
	GRANT CREATE    TRIGGER   TO scott;
	GRANT CREATE    SEQUENCE  TO scott;
	GRANT CREATE    PROCEDURE TO scott;
	GRANT ALTER ANY TABLE     TO scott;
	GRANT ALTER ANY TRIGGER   TO scott;
	GRANT ALTER ANY SEQUENCE  TO scott;
	GRANT ALTER ANY PROCEDURE TO scott;
	GRANT DROP  ANY TABLE     TO scott;
	GRANT DROP  ANY TRIGGER   TO scott;
	GRANT DROP  ANY SEQUENCE  TO scott;
	GRANT DROP  ANY PROCEDURE TO scott;
	GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO scott;
	EOF

You will see "ORA-01920: user name 'SCOTT' conflicts with another user
or role name" if user scott already exists.

Create procedures for retrieving md5 hash strings and current date
------------------------------------------------------------------

The Database component requires creating a custom procedures in the 
Oracle which handles md5 strings and current date. Your user will 
require 'CREATE PROCEDURE' permissions for this.
Execute::
  
	$ sqlplus scott/tiger@orcl < Database/doc/sql/oracle_md5.sql
	$ sqlplus scott/tiger@orcl < Database/doc/sql/oracle_now.sql
  
to have necessary procedures created.

Running Database unit tests.
----------------------------

After performing procedures above you could run Database unit tests::

	$ php5 UnitTest/src/runtests.php -D oracle://scott:tiger@localhost/orcl Database

Note: It's forbidden to run unit tests in production environment as tests are
aware of existing database data. It is strongly recommended to setup and use
a testing environment while developing your application.
