[TYPO3-english] Installing and extension with Oracle as the DB

[Bonneville, Douglas]

I have T3 4.4.6 running in a Linux / Oracle setup. T3 installed just fine. But I went to install TV, which needs Static Tables, but the page just times out. I'm stuck on the page that shows you the SQL that the extension is about to execute. But again, the page just hangs.

We sent the Oracle DBA, who knows nothing about T3, and he said:

"These statements are not configured for Oracle

1. There are no datatypes 'Tinyint' in oracle
2. 'unsigned' is not valid in the column definition
3. UID is a reserved word in Oracle

In order to get these to function in Oracle we will need to restructure the statements"

I'll take his word for it...but since we installed T3 using the DBAL, I thought all SQL would be sanitized by it, and made to play nice with Oracle.

What could be going wrong?

I'm not even 100% it's a DB error - it just looks that way because the "install" button at the bottom of the extension installation page (with all the SQL) just hangs.

If it's not the DBAL failing, or anything DB related, what else could it be?
