Thanks Massimo!!
Sure enough that was the problem. Once I removed the windows binary and
ran web2py from the source version it recognized the cx_Oracle driver.

The problem seems to be that web2py is not finding the module. I do
not think this has anything to do with versions.
Are you using the source version of web2py? If not, the windows binary
distribution of web2py comes with its own python interpreter and it
will not see modules you installed in the "other" python.

The only problem is that python interpreter itself seems to recognize
the cx_Oracle driver. I am able to make a connection in the Python
Shell. I only get the error when trying to connect using web2py DAL in
the Interactive Shell.
Is there any version compatibilities issue?
Windows 2003 Server
Python v2.5
cx_Oracle v5.0.3-10g-win32-py2.5
Oracle v10g
web2py v1.76.5
Should I try a lower version of cx_Oracle or web2py?

I suggest you email the creators of cx_Oracle. You should not need to
install it under web2py/site-packages. If it is normally installed
under Python, web2py should be able t use it.

You said "...installing it into your python's site-packages.". I have
only installed the cx_Oracle binary but if I look in
'C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages' it appears to have already been
installed as the cx_Oracle.pyd exists here. Just for a wild shot I
copied this file to the ~\web2py\site-packages but that made no difference.
What am I doing wrong or missing?

I think that it means to run the source version of cx_oracle not the
binary version. This would entail downloading the source of cx_Oracle
and installing it into your python's site-packages.

I read that I need to run web2py from the cx_oracle source. I'm not
sure how to 'run from source'. Maybe there is someone that could point
me in the right direction.
Thnx,
Jay
