I injected conn=cx_Oracle.connect(...) all around django sources

sometimes it works, other times it doesn't: I save a django file and
everything works fine, I try to lunch again and it doesn't work anymore
then I remove a pyc file and it works again, I lunch again and it works, the
third time it doesn't work anymore

I'm sorry I cant' give you more precise infos... but I feel like I'm chasing
