Yes and no. You can generate sql without connection but you still need the driver and looks like we2py cannot find the cx_Oracle driver. Could it be you have two versions of python (one with the driver, and one running web2py)? Anyway, open a ticket about this. we can change it so that you can make SQL even without the driver.
