Re: [cx-oracle-users] DLL Error - python 2.4, Oracle 8.1.7, cx_Oracle 4.1.2, Win XP SP2

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

No specific help but find out what Oracle client version you are using
and then download a version of cx_Oracle that corresponds to it. That
will elminate the problems with version mismatches. As for determining
what client version a particular version of cx_Oracle was compiled
against -- that's not possible because Oracle doesn't provide this
information. And, if you can't import the module at all you definitely
can't get any information from it.... :-) That problem is part of
another thread which has not yet been resolved.
