Connect Oracle from Django 1.7 (Linux)
Hi, today I'm gonna create new Oracle's related Project with Django 1.7. My setup is Kubuntu 14.10 First thing I will have to have installed oracle-client. You should download these files below from oracle website oracle-instantclient12.1-basic-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient12.1-devel-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient12.1-jdbc-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient12.1-odbc-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient12.1-tools-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient12.1-sqlplus-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm Then we would use 'alien', which is linux application that can convert rpm to deb. By doing this >>> sudo alien *.rpm Then use dpkg install them all >>> sudo dpkg -i *.deb Next , edit your bashrc file, by add export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client64 PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib Create virtuaenv or pip to your env >>>
