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

[greg <mar...@gm...>]

I think I fixed it.  I ended up using this for pip install to make
sure it pulls down a new copy and rebuilds (and maybe gets a later
version??)

$ pip install --no-cache-dir --allow-external --allow-unverified cx_oracle

I was then able to import cx_oracle without issues but I was getting
an error "'ORA-21561: OID generation failed'".

Then I followed the instructions here and added a line with my
hostname to the /etc/hosts file and it all works now.
