Can't install node oracle on Mac
I am following all instructions for installing node oracle on my computer. When I run sudo npm install oracle
(or without sudo) I get:
../src/connection.h:11:10: fatal error: 'occi.h' file not found
#include <occi.h>
^
1 error generated.

However, I have an occi.h file. I have been bored online for hours to no avail. Any ideas?

I have posted a bounty since I got into this problem, but then I was able to solve it in a few steps. You need to export the variables and then do some more items. I found detailed installation instructions for the oracle driver here - https://github.com/joeferner/node-oracle/blob/master/INSTALL.md
Just follow this step by step and you should be good.

I ran into the same error and I saw that I forgot to install Instant Client Package - SDK
, which has additional header files and an example makefile for developing Oracle applications with Instant Client. When I put the folder sdk
in $ OCI_HOME (this is the path to the instantclient_VV_v folder) it was resolved.
