Re: [cx-oracle-users] Re: python 2.3 + cx_oracle on HP-UX Itanium

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

I have no access to a HP-UX Itanium box so I can't try this for
myself. I know that on other platforms you can specify -m64 to
indicate you want a 64-bit build when there is an option. You could
try that, I suppose. Does the import give you no other errors? Usually
there is a system error message that is displayed. You can also try
the "type <filename>" command to determine whether the types of the
files are compatible (on Solaris at least this displays whether or not
the files are 32-bit or 64-bit). You can also try the ldd command to
see if that generates additional errors that might help you track down
the problem. Hope some of these help anyway!
