First off, I'm not familiar with the oci8 module itself, so the
following may not be entirely accurate:

The error message seems to be showing that it is trying to load
/usr/lib64/php/modules/oci8 and not finding it.  Which is to be
expected.  Then it tries /usr/lib64/php/modules/oci8.so which it does
find but cannot open because its dependency, libclntsh.so.21.1, is not
found.  What does 'ldd /usr/lib64/php/modules/oci8.so' show?

Do you have libclntsh.so.21.1 installed somewhere on your system?  If
not you'll need to install it.  If it is installed, then you'll need to
set the library path to point to it, so that it can be found when needed.
