Hi

I am configuring python for oracle.

I have configured file ln -s libclntsh.so.12.1 libclntsh.so

Python version Python 2.7.5

I have installed python pip by using command python get-pip.py

i have set export LD_RUN_PATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.1/dbhome_1/instantclient_12_1

I have set Oracle home export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.1/dbhome_1

while install cx_Oracle in oracle user getting below error error

pip install cx_Oracle

Collecting cx_Oracle

  Using cached cx_Oracle-5.2.1.tar.gz

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

    Traceback (most recent call last):

What is in /u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.1/dbhome_1/instantclient_12_1 and why are you setting LD_RUN_PATH at all?

With a full Oracle install I would typically just set ORACLE_HOME to whatever, and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
