You forgot the most important part of the information required to diagnose your problem -- the version of Oracle and the version of cx_Oracle. :-) In addition, when you get that particular error, there is a message box that comes up with some additional information -- what was that information? I would guess that it is complaining about the procedure OCISessionGet() which is only available in Oracle 9.2 and up. If you are running 9.0 or lower, use the Oracle 8i version of cx_Oracle. If that's not it, please reply with the information above. Thanks!

I recieve the following error: (for version and os info see below)

IDLE 1.0.3

import cx_Oracle


Traceback (most recent call last):

    import cx_Oracle
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.

I chased this on google, found some hits , but none helped.

This machine has oracle client software set up on it (forms reports,
sqlplus) and connects to a remote oracle database on my local
intranet.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
