[cx-oracle-users] ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified

[Anurag C. <anu...@gm...>]

I am using Windows 7 (64Bit) and from within the Python command prompt I am
able to connect to a Oracle database using cx_Oracle.

When the same connection (With the same user/password etc) is made from a
Web Application (Django/mod_wsgi) then I get the error

ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified

Here are my versions in use

   1. Python 2.7.6 (default, Nov 10 2013, 19:24:18) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
   (Intel)] on win32
   2. cx_Oracle.version - '5.1.2'
   3. mod_wsgi‑3.5.ap22.win32‑py2.7.zip
   4. Oracle  Release 10.2.0.1.0
   5. httpd-2.2.25-win32-x86


I am not sure why it would not work from within the Web App. Please help.

Guddu
