[cx-oracle-users] Cannot build cx_Oracle on Ubuntu Karmic

[László M. <la...@mo...>]

Hi List,

I'm using Ubuntu Linux, Karmic Koala, the 64 bit version and Oracle XE
10.2.0.1.0

Here's what "python setup.py build" outputs:

running build
running build_ext
building 'cx_Oracle' extension
gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.6-10g/cx_Oracle.o
-L/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib
-L/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server -lclntsh -o
build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6-10g/cx_Oracle.so
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible
/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libclntsh.so
when searching for -lclntsh
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lclntsh
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

Thanks in advance!
