“error: cannot locate an Oracle software installation” When trying to install cx_Oracle
问题 Newbie here trying to use python to do some database analysis. I keep getting the error: "error: cannot locate an Oracle software installation" When installing CX_oracle (via easy_install). The problem is I do not have oracle on my local machine, I'm trying to use python to connect to the main oracle server. I have have setup another program to do this(visualdb) and I had a .jar file I used as the driver but I'm not sure how to use it in this case. Any suggestions? 回答1: Don't use easy_install
