Hi ,

 

MIght have have already asked this question in the forum but no answer.

 

I have win 7 desktop with 2013 fme desktop.When I import cx_Oracle it gives the above mentioned error.

 

This seemed to be working in 2012 version of desktop earlier.

 

Note : Oracle client is 64 bit .

 

This problem is also a part of Fme server installation in similar environment .

 

 

Need help !!!

Hi,

 

 

which version of FME Desktop are you running, 32 or 64 bits?

 

 

A 64-bit Oracle client will only work with 64-bit FME.

Hi David,

 

I checked for the environemntal variables,binary client compatibility.

 

This seems to be the issue of the python cx_Oracle library shipped along with 64 bit of FME2013 and Server .

 

When I force upon to a custom python of mine the issue seems to be resolved.

 

Waiting a fix .
