Re: [cx-oracle-users] Help/Advice installing cx_oracle on El Capitan

[Chris G. <chr...@to...>]

You shouldn't need ORACLE_HOME (Oracle actually discourage setting that
with Instantclient).
But your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH should point to the actual top-level directory
of your instantclient (ie ending with /instantclient_11_2 in your example).

Also you need to create a symlink in the instantclient_11_2 directory for
libclntsh.dylib.11.1 (or equivalent)

ln -s  libclntsh.dylib.11.1 libclntsh.dylib
