Re: [cx-oracle-users] Missing Headers?

[Hancock, D. (DHANCOCK) <DHA...@ar...>]

I think the fix for this is to apt-get python-dev.

Cheers!

Subject: [cx-oracle-users] Missing Headers?

I am attempting to install cx_Oracle-5.1.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 with python 2.7.3

I am getting the following build error:

root@ubu1:/usr/local/src/cx_Oracle-5.1.2# python setup.py build
running build
running build_ext
building 'cx_Oracle' extension
creating build
creating build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7-11g
gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -I/usr/local/src/instantclient_11_2/sdk/i2
cx_Oracle.c:6:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I searched the entire system for the missing header file to no avail.

I also noticed that the include path /usr/local/src/instantclient_11_2/sdk/i2 does not exist. There is, however, an sdk/include directory with some header files included in cx_Oracle.c  such as oci.h, orid.h, xa.h. But Python.h and structmember.h are missing.

Any suggestions?
