Re: [cx-oracle-users] Version 5.1 vs 5.04

[Gerrat R. <gri...@co...>]

Thanks for the response, Anthony.  

I don't know how to go about finding which DLL it's complaining about -
it doesn't write that information to the error logs.

I tried running Dependency Walker on cx_Oracle.pyd (not even sure if
this is correct/useful at all, but wanted to at least try *something*).

It came back with an error message, and couldn't open: (MSVCR90.DLL,
IESHIMS.DLL, and WER.DLL), but I get the same error messages on the 5.04
(working) version as well. 

 

Regards,

  Gerrat
