Re: [cx-oracle-users] cx oracle and python2.3

[Anthony T. <ant...@gm...>]

Hi, I should be able to answer your questions. :)

1) The last official version of cx_Oracle that supported Python 2.3
was 4.4.1. You can find a copy here

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cx-oracle/files/

2) Download the source and compile. You can attempt the precompiled
version but may run into difficulties as I did not use RHEL/CentOS
with version 4.x.

3) I used it myself at the time without any known difficulties. After
4.4.1 you will have to patch the source to make it work with Python
2.3 so I wouldn't recommend that. If anything, I'd recommend upgrading
your OS. :-)
