Answer 1

checks that is OK and return the user

No - according to the prototype it returns a cursor. Cursors have no meaning outside PL/SQL. If you change the type to a sys_refcursor and explicitly initialize $result_arr as an array, I'd expect it to have a better chance to work.

Although looking at Alvaro's answer and the absence of a non-scalar paramter type I think it might not.

Answer 2

I'd suspect the problem is the first parameter. You tell PDO that it's a string (PDO::PARAM_STR) but it's actually types.cursorType. There's a user comment in the PHP manual that suggests that ref cursors are not supported.

Unluckily, the Oracle driver for PDO is experimental and (IMHO) basically abandoned.
