cx_Oracle error when used in a cron job

700084Sep 19 2009 — edited Sep 21 2009
Hi everyone,
I've installed cx_Oracle and used it successfully in a number of python scripts, but it's throwing an error when I try to run one of those python scripts as a cron job.

Below is the traceback that I'm logging from the cronjob:
 
<<snipped>>
  import cx_Oracle
  File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/cx_Oracle.py", line 7, in <module>
  File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/cx_Oracle.py", line 6, in __bootstrap__
ImportError: libclntsh.so.11.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Again, the script works fine if I run it manually (i.e. "python script.py"). I've googled around for hours and can't seem to figure this out.

Anyone have suggestions?
It's greatly appreciated.
Serdar
