Hi,

I've tried countless times to build & install cx_Oracle on Python
3.1.2, and failed every time, so I'd like to ask someone for help.
I've included step-by-step (literally) description of my last try,
with so much detail I could, to help clarify things.

I can build without errors. I can install without errors. I fail to
import.

I'm using an NT box (os:Win7)

Downloaded Oracle Instant Client 10.2.0.4
instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.4.zip --> extracted to C:\TEMP
\ORAIC10\bin
instantclient-sdk-win32-10.2.0.4.zip --> extracted to C:\TEMP
\ORAIC10\sdk

Downloaded source code(cx_Oracle-5.0.4.tar.gz) from http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/
--> extracted to C:\TEMP\Python\cx_Oracle

Installed Python 3.1.2 --> C:\Python31
Installed MinGW 5.1.6 --> C:\MinGW


Startet command prompt:
cd C:\TEMP\Python\cx_Oracle
PATH=%PATH%;C:\Python31;C:\MinGW\bin;C:\TEMP\ORAIC10\bin
SET ORACLE_HOME=C:\TEMP\ORAIC10
SET LD_LIBRARY_PATH=C:\TEMP\ORAIC10\sdk\lib
python setup.py build -c mingw32
python setup.py install

start python:

(Intel)] on

I've opened the cx_Oracle.pyd with Dependency Walker (http://
www.dependencywalker.com/) and DW reports it can't find: OCI.DLL,
PYTHON31.DLL, MSVCR90.DLL (why?)

Appreciate any help, even wildshots and 2 cents are welcome - I'll try
everything.

Cheers,
Tom
